Happy Valentines Day!
I just thought I would hop on here and say Happy Valentines Day as well as share this picture that I took while I was shopping at Target. Someone was bitter when they proposed this idea for a Valentines Day candy...Lol. Whether single (like me) or in a relationship, I hope everyone here has a great day!

Box Opening: BuzzAgent Schick Razor
Mail! Mail! I love mail :) This is from BuzzAgent, and they sent this to me for FREE to try out. Awesome! In the BuzzKit, they included about 10 $5 off coupons for all of my friends as well as a brand new Razor and matching changeable heads! I cannot WAIT to try this, but sadly I'll have to wait a couple more days because I just replaced my razors. It's a disposable one, though, so it won't be long before I come on here and post my review on this razor.

NOTD: "Jade" Kiss Nail Stickers
This is what is on my nails right now. Super cute, right? Well, they are the Kiss brand nail stickers. The design is called "Jade." I wasn't super impressed when I first put these on. Actually, I had a better experience putting them on than the Sally Hansen nail stickers, but I think that's because this was my second try with nail stickers. But the stickers didn't stick super good, and some of them were coming up pretty easily. I did put a clear top coat over then, though to keep them in place. Having said that, these stickers are STILL on my nails, and I think they've been on for almost a week. Yes, they chipped pretty quickly, but they haven't chipped any farther, for the most part. Today is the first day that I'm starting to miss bigger chunks of one or two of the nails, but I've gone to work 3 days this week where I am building stuff with my hands, so I'd say that's not bad.The other complaint that I had was that there weren't many sizes to pick from, so a lot of my nails had gaps on the sides. So, I made sure the gaps were on the side of my nails that is harder for ME to see, so I barely notice them.
Overall, I think these nail stickers were a fun thing to have. I don't know if the top coat (which is NEW) is what kept these on for so long. I do like that these are cheaper, and I think they are a great alternative to the Sally Hansen nail strips (but only if it has the top coat on it). I'm definitely going to be trying more of these, and now that I've had a more positive experience with nail stickers, I'm definitely going to be trying more brands and posting about them here.

February 2013 Julep Box Opening!
Yay! I love when I have hard days only to go to my mailbox and get showered with nail polish :)
This is what came in my February Julep Maven Box. I changed from It-girl to Boho-Glam. I've never chosen anything other than these two options, oddly. I was really tempted to try the holographics this month, though. But I just couldn't get these colors out of my head. They were just something that I didn't have.The first thing that they included was: a lash crimper and two chocolate hearts. Mama likes chocolate :) They were a nice, unexpected bonus :)
They also had in there the Freedom Top Coat, which is supposed to make your nail polish act like gel nails, lasting twice as long as normal polish. This was another HUGE reason that I didn't skip this month. I was just so curious about the top coat :P The other box next to it is the Oxygen Nail Treatment. I don't know much about this, but I am excited to try it and see what I think.
These were the actual polished that I got in the box. The orange color is called Ingrid, and the light grey-blue is called Julianne. The colors were not wanting to show up true to color for me at all, so I will paint my nails in the future with them and show them in the daylight soon :)
Let me know what you got! And if you aren't already a maven, you NEED to get your first box. It's awesome and only a penny! Click here to be directed to their site!

Bath and Body Works Semi-Annual Sale
This post is two combines hauls of what I bought at the Semi-Annual Sale for Bath and Body works. I went to two different locations.
Haul One:
Haul #2:
I'm not going to list out everything I got because I think the pictures are big enough to see everything (and because most everything in this haul is back at home). I will say that so far my favorites are: I <3 Watermelon Cherry (separate post on that here and here), the Orange Sapphine Shower Gel which smells AMAZING and is in my shower now. I also love the little cupcake scent portable. If you haven't seen their new line of Spring scent portable holder, you NEED to go check them out. They are literally the cutest things! I personally love the little elephant and the pink flamingo.
If you have any questions about what something is or if I can do a review on an item, just post in the comments below!
Here are a couple of my past Bath and Body Works Hauls too, if that's your kind of thing: Online Order and the last semi-annual Sale

Impress Nails Review
I'm going to make this short and sweet: I did NOT like these nails. I don't know if it was just the fact that they were too long on my nails or if I didn't put them on right, but they were not fun. They were difficult to work with and then they were difficult to wear. I was not a fan, and I am glad that I didn't spend a bunch of money on them. Have you every tried these?
