Ipsy - Beach Beauty July

Ok so I know what you are thinking...July Ipsy, but we're in August. I can't believe I forgot to post this but better late than never..right?

All the essentials for a summer holiday were packed in a bright pink makeup bag that takes me back to my teenage years of cheap PVC pencil cases. My favorite item in this bag would have to be the Nailtini nail polish in 'Mai Tai', it is so eye catching and the perfect accessory to some summer fun!

Jewels & Polishes

Step out of the expected and try delicious combinations of nail color that match with your jewelry. The edgy combination of multiple colors will be sure to set you apart from the crowd. Contrast is important so if you are going to use a vibrant color, emphasize its punch by pairing it with a subdued neutral or darker color.

I would love to know what pieces of jewelry you choose to match your Mani with!

Generation Beauty by Ipsy

Thanks to Glenda at Sexy hair I was able to attend Generation Beauty by Ipsy that took place this past weekend at the Nokia Live. Thanks G! I spent my Saturday afternoon strutting the pink carpet, checking out makeup booths and spotting a few familiar faces from You Tube and the blogging world.

I am super excited about PACIFICA as the majority of the products are made with coconut and other natural ingredients.

Red and black can only mean one thing-Big Sexy hair!

I was in nail heaven at the Nicole by OPI booth they had set up. OPI were providing Mani's but there were also tables with design tips so you could just try something new out for yourself, hence my "I see you & raise you" plus "Sweet Dreams" self manicure!

Fishtail braid by Toni&Guy that I did not want to ever take out!

Yes you are reading correctly, there was a Boba truck there!
