Keepin' me busy!

It's been a slow past few weeks makeup-wise because I've been on a uber low-buy. I'm putting my monthly budget towards Hakuhodo brushes, sooo to tame my must-haul-everything ways my my attention has been towards polishes! The thing about nail polish is that it can accumulate VERY fast and since it's definitely much cheaper than makeup, you don't feel all too bad afterwards, ahem.

Here is what I'm collected over the last few months weeks. Everything from Zoya, Revlon, OPI, Ulta, Chanel, Confetti, China Glaze, Deborah Lippman, Butter London, Essie, Sephora by OPI, Julep and adorable minis!

How adorable are these minis?! I have a thing for minis which are identical-looking to their full-sized versions.

That being said, I will be moving to new country in roughly 5 weeks so I've started buying makeup again and haulage pictures will be up soon.

p.s. My love of minis reminds me of these minis:

NARS 'Laguna' Bronzer // Laura Geller Blush-n-Brighten in 'Sun Swept'. Both were GWP from Sephora and Beauty.com, respectively.


  1. Love the minis! Do they come as part of gift sets or can you purchase them like that? :D

    1. Hi Iman,

      I got these as part of a swap but I checked for you and most minis are only a part of sets, and aren't sold individually. They're half the size of the full-sized ones so it would make sense to make them available for those that don't want to commit to a full bottle, lol. :)

    2. Thank you for checking. That's a shame; I totally agree, they should be available as singles. I think Bourjois sell single mini nail polishes. Not sure about the quality though. What polishes would you recommend from OPI?

    3. Iman,

      My favorites? There are so many! I mentioned a few here: http://www.vintagegulab.com/2012/04/top-10-spring-nail-polishes.html

      I also love Hey! Get In Lime which is not mentioned in there. :)
