INSTAGRAM ROUND UP | October '13

Happy 31st of October everyone.. or Happy Halloween for those of you who like to celebrate it! It is of course time to round up my Instagram snaps from October and I am surprised at how many pics I took this month, so without further ado...

NOTD TAKE TWO | Incoco Dry Nail Appliqué in Sheer Blush + American Apparel Galaxy

In yesterday's post I talked all about using the Incoco strips - see it here - and I got bored of the plain colour very fast, plus they didn't really do a lot for my nails anyway. So to just give it an update, I decided to add the confetti glitter from American Apparel called Galaxy. I absolutely love this glitter, it is so fun and full of heaps of different colours and adds a polka dot looking effect on the nails.

NOTD | Incoco Dry Nail Appliqué in Sheer Blush

This past week I have been sorting out my makeup and nail polish storage situation as there has been a bit of an overflow happening (it's also great study procrastination!) and discovered a few things from old Sample Bar boxes that I needed to try out. Sample Bar is a monthly subscription box for $25 a month here in NZ and I found these Incoco Dry Nail Appliqué strips that I got in a box a few months ago so decided to give them a go as I have never heard or seen this brand or product before. According to Sample Bar these retail for $13.49, which is a little expensive for one off nail strips. Plus I've got to say, I got a pretty plain colour in Sheer Blush.

REVLON | Luxurious Color Perle Eye Shadows

I am a huge fan of these single eye shadows from Revlon and have talked about them a few times before on my blog (I love Nude Slip!), so when NZ Sale had a huge Revlon/Almay sale I picked up a few more. Not only are they great quality, I got each one for only $2 each - that is just craziness! These 3 are all 'Perle' finish so have quite a sparkle to them, they are really soft and pigmented and are great for the price.

MINI MANI #008 | KLEANCOLOR 'Be My Daydream' Sweet Romance Mini Collection

We have come to the very last post in my Mini Mani Series, and last but no least is the Kleancolor 'Be My Daydream' Sweet Romance mini set. You get 6 mini polishes, all in the Valentine theme and it is a nice mix of cream colours and glitters.

MINI MANI #007 | KLEANCOLOR 'What Girls Really Talk About' Glitter Mini Collection

Day #7 has rolled around for Mini Mani Week and I have another Kleancolour set to share. Similarly to yesterday's I purchased this from Postie for NZD $10.00 and again the name is a little bit cheesy, but I'll go with it because these glitter polishes are pretty great!
