Everyone loves Chocolate!

Here is a quick nail polish review and I mean quick.  I slapped that polish on before I lost the outside light to take pictures!  It is one of my faves from Avon, and it is called Deluxe Chocolate.

I think this is the perfect Nail Polish to go with all the Fall colors and I love this Rich Brown shade with tiny flecks of gold in it!

It also goes very well with animal prints!

Thanks for taking time to read this!

Splurge!

A few weeks ago, I read in the paper about a Beauty & Fashion Shopping Extravaganza coming to town called SPLURGE.  The event was yesterday and I took my Mom with me, because I wanted to spend time with her and what better way right?  It was being held at one of our many Casinos in one of their Ballrooms.  The event was to raise money for Breast Cancer Research, since October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

There were exhibitors from wall to wall with everything to purchase from Jewelry, Fashion, Shoes, Cosmetics, Photography and Beauty Services.  They were doing makeovers and using straightening irons on women's hair.  They also had a lot of free drawings to win different products and services.

As we made it towards the back, they had free samples of the best Mini Cupcakes compliments of Cake Fetish Cupcakes here in Albuquerque.  They were also giving Champagne, Wine and Lemon Drop samples.  Cupcakes & Cocktails I guess you would call it :)

They had the most beautiful things there and the prices were amazing!  I took my camera so I could share it with you, until we got there and there are no cameras, video recorders or photography allowed in the Casino!  I had completely forgot that all of our Casinos are on Indian land.

We spent a few hours there and when you leave you get a little gift bag with brand name products in them.  So I took some pictures of the goodies we received in the bag.

I didn't purchase anything there, because I have to really want something bad enough to buy it, but my Mom purchased a few things, including something for me :)  She spoils me :)  She bought me this lotion we both sampled and we both loved it, but it was too high priced for me.  The lotion is called Hempz Body Lotion, and it is supposed to moisturize for 12 hours, plus it smells AMAZING!  It is a 17 Oz. bottle for $18.00 and she surprised me with it.  I can't stop smelling my hands and arms!

Here is what was in the gift bag:

1.  Stainless Steel High Heel Cake Server by Slice of Style

2.  Tea Tree Triple Treat Shampoo, Conditioner & Body Wash by Giovanni

3.  Hope in a Jar Moisturizer by Philosophy

4.  Spray Hair Wax by Lanza Healing Haircare 

5. New Beauty Magazine (I think it's new & retail cost is $9.95!)

6. Milani  Powder Blush in #08 Luminous

7.  White Shower Scrubber

8.  Colgate Pro Clinical Whitening Gel

9.  Luna Nutritional Bar (Very good by the way)

So all in all we had a great time! Here are some photos I took outside the Casino because it was so pretty:

Thanks for reading and have a great weekend!
