Mod About You!

Last week, I blogged about having found a good dupe of O.P.I.'s "Mod About You." I thought that I had discovered a similar polish by Sally Hansen in the color "Pardon My French." Well...how wrong I was! Crystal from http://www.lipglossgossip.com/ told me to check out a website called head2toebeauty.com so I did. Unfortunately, they didn't have Mod About You in stock, but it led me to another website called Lotusnailsupply.com where they did have it in stock! So being that I have been desperate to buy it, I did! It arrived five days after I placed the order. And honestly, I love it! It really is the perfect milky, pink color with just a hint of purple. It is also incredibly opaque. One coat is all it takes. Although the Sally Hansen Pardon My French is a pretty color, it is definitely NOT a dupe for the O.P.I. like I thought. Sorry girls, I made a little mistake on that one ;)



~The only thing I wish O.P.I. would change are their brushes. They are too wide for my taste, kind of makes the application messy. I wish they were more narrow like the Sephora by O.P.I. brushes~

Top 5 Blushes :)

Besides being a sucker for lipgloss, I am really into blush. There's no reason, I just love it! I rarely ever stray from the peachy-pink tones, although I have been curious to try maybe a more plum color for fall/winter. I just love how a quick swipe of blush can add warmth and radiance to the entire face. I feel naked without it! So here are my top 5. I am happy to report that they are all by different brands.

Jane blush in Soft Mink...love this natural pink.


MAC mineralized blush in Improvise...beautiful coral shade from Color Craft Collection


Recent fave, NYX blush in Angel. A true soft pink with no hint of peach!


Too Faced blush in Papa Don't Peach. Cute name for this true peach color.


For my fifth choice, I cheated and picked two! These blush samples from Lumiere cosmetics are amazing. The one on the left is Ditto O that I raved about in my Lumiere review. The one on the right is called Violacious and it's a pretty purple-pink.


Thanks for reading!

Good dupe for O.P.I.'s Mod About You

I have been searching high and low for O.P.I. nail polish in "Mod about you." It is just the most feminine milky pink color. I love the look of nudish nails any time of the year. You never have to worry about it clashing with an outfit you are wearing, because it looks great with anything!
So my friend let me borrow a Sally Hansen polish in "Pardon my french." It is very similar to the O.P.I. color! I have to give it back to her this weekend, but I think I'll stop by CVS sometime and buy a bottle of my own.


However, I still want the real thing! If anyone knows where I can find "Mod about you", please leave me a comment and let me know!
