Hello! Today's haul post is a big one! I may have gone a bit overboard this month. I definitely broke all the rules. What can I say? Without getting too detailed, I finally got the raise I had been expecting for quite some time, so I celebrated in polish! ...and a fancy dinner one night!
I'm always weak when it comes to in-store shopping. I stopped into Ulta to look for a few specific, non-nail polish items, which I didn't find, but walked out of the store with these lovelies: OPI Jinx, Essence Peach & Cream, Zoya PixieDusts in Dahlia, Chyna, and London. Hangs head... I have no willpower!

Next came my celebratory polish haul from
Head2Toe Beauty. I love their prices, but their shipping is a flat ~$12 for any amount of polish. So, I usually wait until I want a LOT of polishes from there to 'justify' the shipping costs. From China Glaze: United, Orange You Hot?, Make a Spectacle, When Stars Collide, and Strap on Your Moonboots.

Lastly from Head2Toe, I picked up a dappen dish. This one was listed as "Raspberry". It's a really small but very solid glass dish, which I was hoping would be perfect to hold just a bit of the acetone I use for clean-up while swatching. It is the perfect size for this type of use. I had been dipping my clean up brush directly into the acetone bottle, but I was losing a fair amount of product to evaporation while I worked, plus worried about tipping it over. This glass dish suits my needs perfectly! And, it only cost 59 cents! I pictured it next to a Sinful Colors bottle so you can get an idea for just how small it is.

My super awesome fiance surprised me with these after what he knew was going to be a long day at work that I had been dreading. Sally Hansen Fuzzy Coat in All Yarned Up and Tight Knit. Isn't he great!?

Surprise polish! |
I also splurged and picked up my first (and probably only) Deborah Lippmann polish. Million Dollar Mermaid just had to be mine, regardless of the $19 price tag!

Nordstrom loot! |
I also ordered on-line from Ulta. I purchased the brightening serum and another of my favorite essence eye pallette. My purchase qualified for the "free bag o' stuff promotion" they had going on! This included deluxe sizes and full sizes of about a dozen Ulta products: deluxe sized lip gloss, face wash, blush, and nail polish. Full-sized mascara, lipstick, eye shadow, and eye liner. It also came in a nice make-up bag with a few brushes.

Lastly, I snagged all of my lemmings from Elevation Polish during their latest restock, which are Haba Xueshan, Daisen, and Stay Behind Catch a Wave. Circle glitter perfection!
