Sooo....

Gosh, I'm just being the world's best blogger, aren't I?

I know on my very first post, I stated that I had these grand ideas of what I wanted to focus this blog about, but after sharing those ideas with my younger sister, AV, she gave me some good feedback and now - thanks to her!!! - I am back to square one. Oh, boo!

Like I mentioned before, I really don't want my blog to be boring by basically bringing my YouTube video's over here to the blog and put it in text mode, because I follow a few YouTube Beauty Guru's who do that and to be quite honest, I'm hardly ever excited to look at their blogs as I am to their videos.

One of the YouTube beauty guru's DulceCandy87 is the one that made me this way!!! (Made me think hard about my blog content, that is). I just love how she knows how to separate her YouTube channel from her blog. Her blog consists only of OOTD's (Outfits of the Day). Focusing on just that one subject gives me such great inspiration, even if I wouldn't wear some of them (sometimes they can be a little TOO trendy for my taste and budget). But the overall point of her blog is what I would like to do.

Granted, I do not have even a quarter of the clothes she has to pull off an OOTD only blog... So I know I have to do something else. And I'm not starting this blog just tp start, I really do want to blog!!! Promise!

So, today I was in search of some other fashion bloggers to stalk follow, and I came upon sccastaneda's blog. She is a fellow YouTube Beauty Guru but on her blog she basically blogs about her life and some random things that are beauty related... and I kind of like that she does that... Gives a little more insight to her as a person. Which I am always curious about in regards to the girls on YouTube.

SOOOO... - gosh, am I the typing freak today!!! - I thought I could do the same until I see a trend in this blog that I can maintain...

So here goes!

On my lunch break today, I went over to my local 99cent only store and as usual I find something Ah-mazing!... What do I mean by Ah-Mazing??? A BRAND NAME PRODUCT THAT IS FULL SIZE AND NOT EXPIRED and/or RUINED!!!!

Ah-Mazing, right???

Yeah, I know. So I like to check my local store on a weekly basis and here were my finds today... not much... but good enough to share!!!

Above: Nailene #22126 Salon Airbrush Nails

These babies were a great find! They had another design (floral - but that's not my style in reference to nail art). You can buy them (full price) at CVS, Walgreens, Ulta and Wal-Mart for about $6. I saved $5 on this guy and they are in perfect condition!!! And so cute too. Not sure if you can see in the pic but they are a nice french-tip-stripe design and they are chip proof!

So excited about this product! 

The only thing is you have to purchase your own glue, but the 99cent only store carries that, too, so really you only get set back $2 total and these nails look natural and gorgeous!

I'll post some pics tomorrow or the day after to show you what they look like on my nails.

Above: Nu-Pore Make-Up Remover wipes

My sister, AV, hinted me towards this product. I currently purchase the e.l.f. brand makeup remover wipes at Target for $3, which is still a great bargain. But my sister told me these smell even nicer and obviously are $2 cheaper (so I could 3 of these instead of 1 e.l.f. product), so I decided to purchase one package to try out - since everyone is different - and if I like them enough, I can always go back and get more (as these seem to be a staple shelf item at the 99cent only store).

Above: Clear-framed purple tinted sunglasses

So these guys I got a few weeks ago at a 99cent only store in Riverside. But I wanted to share the versatility the 99cent store has opened my eyes to. 

Who knew you could get a pair of great sunglasses at this store?!?!? Now, these are not brand name at all, but the style and look of it was so cute, I had to get them. (And most of the time when you have your hair down, no one can see the logo of the glasses, anyways).

Just a really cute find!

Until next time... Stay chic even if it's cheap!

Arrivederci!
