SinfulColors Sweet & Salty Nail Polish Review

 Hey Y'all!


Today I'm talking about the Sinful Colors Sweet & Salty Collection. I have two shades, Taco Tuesday, {pictured} and Pizza Party. These are the only two I've seen locally.  There are six shades in total. I would love to see the others in person, the cookies & cream, or donut even are especially interesting.





Pictured is two very thin coats of Taco Tuesday


From their website:

Binge-worthy indulgence without guilt! Flaunt your appetite for your favorite foods with these tasty manis! Six deliciously-scented SinfulColors® Sweet & Salty nail polish shades deliver unique color impact, detailed texture and over-the-top fun right at your fingertips

  • Treat yourself with this deliciously-scented, six-piece collection of SinfulColors® Sweet & Salty nail polish
  • Sugary and savory shades, textures and scents inspired by your favorite snacks
  • Innovative foodie-inspired colors with over-the-top details create the look of top tasty treats
  • Brush on these limited edition yummy and tantalizing effects
  • Formulated without Toluene, Formaldehyde & DBP

Directions:

Shake gently. Apply 2 coats of color + 1 coat of top coat.


I did not add a top coat, which I'm sure would have helped, but I only wanted to wear this a few days, since I wasn't sure how it was going to perform or if I'd like the look.  Without a top coat it lasted about 2 days before chipping. I'm 99% sure that's due to the textures of the "taco toppings".

The scent was there, but just barely, which worked for me since I didn't want anything overpowering. I noticed it while painting them, and again when I smelled my hands afterward. It still smells like nail polish, but not nearly as strong as normal. I'd like to see how the sweeter shades smell. 

It was a fun experience, and I've not tried a scented polish since childhood! For around $2.00 USD I'd definitely recommend. I think they'd be especially fun for a tween/teen sleepover. 


Have you tried scented polishes before? What were your thoughts? Share in the comments below!


Have a great day,

Where the heck have I been? Plans going forward, and a photo dump!

 Hey Y'all!

I know. It's been a long time. I apologize, I planned to take a week off, and then it just kinda snowballed from there. I was set to re-start after Christmas, then I pushed it to New Year's, and here we are at the end of January. 

That's quarantine life I've found.  Wanting to be productive, and wanting to do nothing all at the same time. I have done other projects, but nothing that really kept me from blogging. Mental health is a struggle too. My most recent CT was this past Friday, results and check up on Wednesday. And while I know it already is what it is, I can't help but worry every time, ya know?! (Also, yes the drink is just as nasty the second time around... maybe more so.) Enough Debbie Downer shit, let's have fun!!

Going forward I still plan on blogging twice a week. Monday's going forward will be reserved for crafting content, and Wednesday's will be beauty related. I'll have an occasional addition blog on Friday's where anything goes. This is also where I'll share life "stuff".


PHOTO DUMP! (This gonna be a long one.)

1) What I got for Christmas:

Too Faced from Hubby.

Rug from Mom & Sis. (link is to exact rug, not an affiliate, none of my links are FYI)


Betsey Johnson from Mom.


Disney towels & Tumbler from Mom. (T.J. Maxx)


Bath Kit from Mom, makeup from Sis.


Colour Pop, and E.l.f. from Sis. (colourpop was limited, link to current release)



This next one was a 12 Days of Christmas giveaway on Instagram from Tombow. I won day 8!

Colored Pencils!



2) What I've been working on:

Coasters, shirts, cards, water bottles, and more. Not pictured is my decision to do away with all my wood mount stamps (they're currently on FB marketplace) and a few other projects I've finished. Some things I share on instagram, but not here.







Card making desk mess!!









This holographic vinyl was not name brand, and impossible to work with, but I got it done. I will finish the roll, but not purchase again. 



3) Dec/Jan everyday shelf & empties/declutters:

Decluttered, none of them were my favorite. I have too much to keep what I don't love.



The problem with December's shelf was I pulled way way too much!


Empties (or expired). 





January's shelf. I've vowed to get rid of these Morphe if I didn't finally use them. The plain black packaging annoys me since I can't see what it is right away, but I did manage to use them this month. I like the quality, just not the packaging. We'll see if they continue to stick around..



Lastly in our photo dump is...
4) Selfies! Also peep that hair growth from Nov- now!











If you stuck around this long, Thanks!
