Zenni Optical review!

Hey guys! I'm back with a Zenni Optical review. Zenni Optical is an online store that sells prescription(or non prescription) eyeglasses or sunglasses. I thought it was about time to get some new glasses myself, so I made a purchase.

• The glasses I got were metal aviators for $6.95, and they don't feel any different than expensive glasses you would get at stores like Costco, Pearle Vision, Fred Meyer. etc. If anything they are a little better. It's so much cheaper (and better) than buying from any other store.
• The glasses are manufactured in China and then shipped to California where they are then, shipped to you. 
• The shipping time should take 2 weeks or less if you live on the West Coast, but don't expect it to be that quick if you live on the East. 
• The shipping price is 4.95 no matter how many items you buy!

TLDR?;

PRICES: Prices vary from $6.95- 45.95

SHIPPING TIME; 10 days(may take longer if you don't live on west coast) They give you a tracking number

SHIPPING PRICE; $4.95 for your whole order

QUALITY; Just like glasses you would get at Pearle Vision, or any other store!

BAD; The only thing I was a little concerned about is the frame sizes, Medium frames were smaller than expected!

Jordana Pop Nail Art!

I got these at Cost Cutter. They cost around $1.00-1.25. Jordana overall is a very very good brand for nail polish with how much the price is. These nail polishes have a striper brush with is used to make fine designs and lines. They are very similar to LA colors Art Deco polishes, but I find that Jordana has a more fine brush than LA Colors. Now onto the polishes :)

 Modern Art is a mix of a Hot Pink and a Light red. It is very nice for creating flowers because of the fine tip. It is a straight color(No shimmer, ect) and it dries Matte.












Golden Artist is a glitter. One that is similar to this particular polish is LA Colors Art Deco "Gold Glitter" I prefer wearing this on dark colors as it "pops" out more in color. There is nothing really special about it, just a normal gold glitter.. :(

Star Designer is a normal silver glitter just like the one about. It also has a dupe, LA Colors Art Deco "Silver Glitter". Same as above, it pops out more on darker colors and there is still nothing very unique about it -_-














The Painter is ANOTHER glitter (3/4 of these polishes are :P)in pink. I don't know always see much pink glitters around here. Good on black glitter. 




Overall, as you saw the glitters were mostly all the same except for the colors. If you can't locate these specific ones, then you can go to the dollar store and try to find the LA Colors Art Deco for similar ones! 
*Swatches are to come! 
-Have a happy new years!! :) 

      

Color Club Scented Nail Polishes

 Hello, once again! I'm back, and I brought smelly nail polishes!! Yayy! These smell absolutely delish  -> Okay lets start out with "Wicked Sweet" Yumm, this smells like...(Blueberry maybe?) I have no clue haha, something sweet. :I This is a sheer with some green shimmers(Camera didn't pick it up) thrown in, so you might have to put 2-4 coats on, the more the smellier! But its super duper pretty, it kind of reminds me of mermaids or something oceanic.

 "A Grape Big Kiss" Yum, its in the name, I like sweet grapes, it smells like em, definitely. This doesn't have any shimmers in it, but its not pigmented :( so once again 2-3 coats. This is a Mediumish purple... Just a normal purple..

 

 "Raspberry Rush" is also a straight color, alike from "A Grape big Kiss" and also not pigmented (alike from "A Grape Big Kiss"...  So I give this 2-3 coats.

 The color is kind of like a fuchsia and a little bit of a hot pink.

 "Yum Gum!" Smells like bubble gum too! I think this is the only one that is more of the opaque ones, I put only 1-2 coats and it was fine ^_^. The color is a baby pink or just a bubble gum pink, you choose. Straight color, no shimmers.

" I Always Get My Man-darin " 

 Back to the green shimmers now!  But also back to the unpigmented kinds, grr. Smells like mandarin. If you think you wanna put one coat of this on you're naked colored nails, it  might make them look yellow.  So please put 2-3 coats of this on unless you have an opaque black or white or whatever on first. The color is a light orange with light green shimmers. 

"Get your lem-on"  We're keeping the green shimmers with this one, too bad you can't see it.

Once again you need 2-4 coats to get it exceptionally opaque, doesn't look as bright as a lemon peel, and it doesn't look THAT yellow, a little more green. This is also Neon

"The Lime Starts Here" I'm just tellin' you that in this line of nail polish, there is only one polish that is pigmented which is "Yum Gum", so go with 2-4 coats with this one to get it opaque(unless you don't like it opaque then thats your choice, fine with me)

Straight color, no shimmers. You can just guess what is smells like, It looks like a neon green if you put 4 coats on.

PROS: The brand works good, I like how its not streaky. AND how it smells great, keep away from fruit lovers! You might lose some fingers!

CONS: About the line, the pigment isn't that great.

   Thats all, I hope you have a nice time smelling your nails, and asking others to smell them too! ~Kim :)

Maybeline Nail polish

 I am thinking of posting nail polishes I got once or twice each week, but I don't know which ones to swatch first. So I'm showing all of you first, then you can tell me which ones I should swatch first, I believe I have Sally hansen, NYC, Pro 10 nail care, LA colors, etc. Once I start on the swatches, I'll add the links to these posts. Anyway, moving on!

 Desert plum creme- This is a pale pink my camera didn't pick up, its not really this orange. This is nice for a neutral color type of wear, its pigmented and stuff.. Not much to say about this one. Haven't had much experience with any of them until I have to swatch them.

Silver Sand- Omg I love this color! If you put it on, if you look REAL closely you can see little holographic glitters! Sadly, people probably won't be looking at your nail that close. This nail polish is a little bit sheer shimmer, I wouldn't wear this everyday though. You can decide on how many coats you have. Its actually not completely brown, if you look at it while the light is shining on it, you can see silverish color. The color in the shade it brown/gold.

Devon Rose Creme- This is a hot pink, its also pigmented, needs one coat, so does the first one at the very top ^Don't have much to say about this one either.. The only reason is that I bought these in a 2 pack at the dollar tree, I only bought them because of the other nail polish in the pack, but i'm sure these will somehow come to use..


Sheer Pink- I have got to say, I am really into sheer polishes, when you have old looking nails, you put this on and it creates the illusion of you having a brighter healthier nail! Not pigmented, if you put on like 4 coats, you get the fake nail look, if you put on 1 coat then it looks more normal. I wouldn't agree with the pink, because thats one of the complete opposites of what color I would think it was.

     NOTE-- When applying nail polish, to me is seems faster painting the nail polish by 1 lair, then waiting, then the next lair. If you go too fast it creates a thick uneven finish.

  Okay, Have a nice day guys!

Jordana Nail Polishes

So I actually bought these polishes a couple months ago and never got to make a blog post about them.
Lemme just say that Jordana polishes are one of the best cheap brands of nail polish EVER! I get mine for $1 at cost cutters. Okay, so movin' on
 Smooth Blue :  This polish requires 1-2 coats, not the most pigmented, but still really really great. Its really just a normal blue, nice for Spring and Summer though!
 Sweet Orange : Is a nice subtle orange also awesome to wear for spring and summer, requires 1-2 coats.
 Silver : Is not a pigmented color, you need quite some coats to achieve the look in the bottle, I would recommend using it when your not in the mood for a straight color, its a bit see through if you put 1 coat.
 The Artist : Is a beautiful glitter polish with holographic particles in it, it is confused with its cousin (also from the same brand) The designer. The designer has slightly bigger particles. If you are to wear this as a full nail polish (putting it on your whole nail) then I suggest you put a black of some sort first, then you can put one coat of "The Artist".  
 Silver Glitter  Is just a normal glitter, when you put it on it doesn't seem like the glitter is everywhere, is seems like 60% of the polish is clear polish.. But it is nice for adding a little sparkle to red polishes or french tips (in my opinion)

 I was a bit sleepy making this, I haven't worn these long enough to determine how long it would last until it chips . But any other questions can be asked by posting a comment on this blog post and will try my best to reply back to you.

This is a really pretty nail polish, I like it because of all the color it holds in the glitter! I haven't experienced any chipping yet, so far its been day 2, haha.
Now that I think about it, I should of painted my nails black and put this on..

Born pretty store!

Hello!  So I recently got this hello kitty nail art plate from bornprettystore.com from a promotion they were holding, let me just tell you now that they have SO MANY promotions! Right now I believe they are going to be giving out hello kitty nail stickers and chanel stickers as well as crackling nail polish (yes for free) BUT they need to get more fans on their facebook page, every fan they get the more quantity they add to the promotion item. More info here http://www.bornprettystore.com/giveaways-information-n-10.html 

Onto the plate. The plate is a GREAT replacement for konad plates, and konad plates are soo much more money! Konad: aprox $6 Bornprettystore: Aprox $2 .  The plate is really good, but I was soo confused when I first got it. The plates have a plastic cover that is transparent and you have to take it off before using or else it won't work right. If you didn't buy the stamper and scraper, and you don't want to, then you can use an old gift card to scrape it. As for to stamp it, this takes a bunch of steps, 1. go to somewhere cheap and buy a cheap stamper you don't mind ruining (dollartree) that has the rubbery texture. 2. after you've done that, cut off the design so that its almost flat. 3. try and peel the stamper off of the handle its on and you should see a flat side you're going to use for stamping, if it has glue on it, clean it. 3. now if your stamping handle or whatever is  too big (if its small and circular  and it fits on your nail then skip this step and glue the rubber thing back on but make sure the flat side is out.) then draw a circle that is small enough for your nail but big enough for the design. 4. Cut the circle and glue/ put putty on something it fits on as the new handle for your stamper. 5. STAMP!! Also normal nail polish can be used for this, using thick and pigmented polishes are the best.
