Today I have a quick review (and comparison) of Sally Hansen’s new, limited edition Sugar Coat textured nail polish line. I purchased just one shade from the line – Lick-o-rich, which is black. The Sugar Coat polishes remind me of Milani’s Textured Creams; both the Sally Hansen and the Milani textured polishes are creme finishes with no shimmer or sparkle.

Earlier this week, I found an end cap display at CVS with two new lines of Sally Hansen polishes – Fuzzy Coat, which is a short bar glitter polish, and Sugar Coat, a textured polish. There are eight shades of each, and I’ll have a swatch & review of Sugar Coat in a separate post.
Beauty.com has 20% off the entire site, today (Tuesday, May 14) through Friday (May 17). Click through the banner to access the sale.
Also, I noticed that Ebates (here’s my invite link if you are not signed up yet) has 14% cash back at Nordstrom.com this week; that’s like a 14% off sale. Nordstrom is the exclusive retailer for a few brands that never go on sale, and 14% off is the best I’ve seen yet (I’m looking at you, Burberry!).
Happy shopping!

I have plenty of foundations I love, but I’m always on the hunt for the latest & greatest. After reading this post on Will Work for Makeup about Tiffany’s foundation wardrobe, I decided to pick up a sample of Make Up For Ever’s Face & Body foundation. Three or four trials later, I knew a bottle would be mine!

Covergirl has just released many new products, and the first one I have a review of are the Outlast Stay Brilliant Glosstinis, which are mini nail polishes. First, a size comparison with the regular Outlast Stay Brilliant Nail polishes:
Covergirl has just released several new products, and (hidden in the back of my CVS), I found a display with most of them! Continue reading

Earlier, I posted about the new Revlon display I found with Color & Shine Super Lustrous Lipsticks – a new formula. I said I had purchased three of the lipsticks; but I liked them so much that after swatching, I went back and bought three more! (Revlon is 40% off at Rite Aid this week, which helps.)
Today at Rite Aid I spotted a display with a new formula of Revlon Super Lustrous lipsticks and new packaging for Revlon Super Lustrous lipglosses (formerly in rectangular packaging), and new shades of both! Revlon’s Super Lustrous lipstick previously came in creme, pearl, and matte finishes. All 10 of the new lipsticks have a “Shine” finish, as labeled on the botton of the tube, and none appear to have shimmer (the lipstick lids have a clear top – they are thankfully shrinkwrapped!).
The new lipstick shades are, top to bottom on the display:
- Rich Girl Red
- Pink Cognito
- Berry Couture
- Fuchsia Shock
- Kissable Pink
- Honey Bare
- Pink Cloud
- Lovers Coral
- Plum Velour
- Terra Copper.
I didn’t get the names of the lipglosses. About half of of them have no shimmer, and about half have a glass fleck finish. I didn’t get the name of this one (sorry!), but here’s a photo of a glass-fleck-finish one.
I purchased three of the lipsticks and one lipgloss, and I’ll be reviewing them soon!

When I purchased my Burberry Lip Mist sample card (reviewed here), I also picked up a Lip Cover sample card. These are actually not intended to be purchased – they’re supposed to be given away free at counters – but they’re worth the purchase for me, especially since each sample is good for multiple applications.
Drugstore.com is having one of its fabulous sales – 30% off everything in the makeup department! If you click through the banner, it will take you to the main page of Drugstore.com and you’ll need to click again on the “click to redeem” button to place the offer in your bag.
I’m still planning out what to buy. I will be purchasing – mostly – from brands that rarely go on sale – Black Radiance, I’m looking at you! (Reviews here.)
Note: sometimes, with Drugstore.com and Beauty.com offers, I get an error message that says You currently have a special offer in your shopping bag that cannot be mixed with this particular special offer. Many of our promotional offers cannot be combined.
If this happens to you, it’s because you have a different promotional offer “in your bag” – that is, there is a cookie with a different promotional offer on your browser. I think the easiest way to fix it is to open up a “Private Browsing” window – called Incognito in Chrome, Private Browsing in Firefox, and InPrivate Browsing in Internet Explorer. This will start you off with no cookies. Or, you can delete your cookies – either all of them or just for Drugstore.com/ Beauty.com.
Are you planning a haul?
