One Heart, One Fight.

Hey guys! So I just wanted to ask all of my readers to just take a moment and look at this fundraiser I'm doing for my school. It's raising money to help families who have a loved one battling cancer, for an organization called the Four Diamonds Fund. My school participates in an event every year called MiniTHON. Its based off of the parent Penn State THON. I hope you will consider supporting my participation in this event. Any contribution will help, and all donations are 100% tax deductible. I promise this is a donation you'll never regret, and it is definitely worth it. Every penny counts! For the kids! Here is a video of last year's success in the MiniTHON, and what it's all about for us. Please help! :) Thank you everyone!

Sally Hansen Crackle Topcoat! Review + Ideas

Hey guys! So, this marks a day in Let's Talk Polish history! I uploaded the blog's first YouTube video! Check it out! It has all of the swatches for my long-awaited shatter/texture coat post!

 

So here's the review!

I really do like these polishes, my only beef is that they get a little clumpy after a while, but nothing a little polish thinner can't handle. Other than that, I think they're great. I haven't seen shimmery purple shatters, except for this. And I'm a sucker for shimmery purple. The brushes are small, but for me, who has small hands and therefore small nails, I can't complain. Thanks for watching and reading! I will be back soon with more reviews, hauls, swatches, and inspirations!

I bought this polish with my own money on my own time, and I am not associated with Sally Hansen in any way.

All of my reviews are from the heart and not monetarily swayed. :)

Burt's Bees Review!

While working on my future tutorial to be coming soon, I was going through my various manicure supplies and thought I'd share one of my favorite beauties with you guys! I highly recommend it! It's Burt's Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream, 100% natural, and it smells like fresh lemons while moisturizing your cuticles! The reason I use this is because I'm more of an all-natural advocate, and I definitely prefer this over any chemical cuticle balm, for around the same prices. This smells better than others I've used, too. I can pronounce all of the ingredients! You can purchase it from a local drugstore, I got mine from Rite Aid, and you can also go to Wal Mart, Target, any place with a cosmetics and beauty section should have it. Most stores carry Burt's Bees, but just in case you can't find it, here's where to buy it for $6! Burt's Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream

And excuse my nails, they're a bit of a mess at the moment! Removing red polishes never works out in my favor.

Ingredients: Sweet almond oil, beeswax, lemon peel oil, cocoa seed butter, candelila wax, sunflower seed oil, rosemary leaf extract, soybean oil, beta-carotene, canola oil, and vegetable oil!

Nothing scary, no added fragrances, no chemicals! :) This makes me very happy! And in case you were wondering, beta-carotene is very good for your skin, nails, hair, everything. Here's an article on it, in case you're curious! Click Here

Tragedy

Last night, I drove by a car accident, and I lost a former classmate. He was a senior the year I was a freshman, I didn't know him very well, but it doesn't take much to hit home for me. He was hit by a drunk driver. Please, everyone, I urge you to report any suspicious driving at ANY time ANYWHERE. It might save a life. He was 19 years old. Way too young to be taken away. Please, never drink and drive, and never ignore warning signs of a drunk driver. My heart is heavy, and I will be helping other friends through this time. I may not be back for a while, but this is indeed why, and please spread the word and awareness, maybe collectively we can all stop the drunk drivers.

Article by local news - It can happen to anyone. Please share this with your friends. I want everyone to know, just so history doesn't repeat itself and we don't lose more young lives. He was just an average, innocent kid. He was someone's child, someone's best friend. No one deserves this.
