TGI-Summer. I love the bright clothing and makeup trends that encompass this wonderful season, and it looks like I’m not the only one. SEPHORA by OPI recently launched their Havana Nights Mini Collection featuring four mini nail polishes in fabulous summer shades.
Reviewers from Sephora.com seem to all be very pleased with the set, which includes the shades Read My Palm, Rumba Romance, Caliente Coral, and Teal We Meet Again. I am loving the Read my Palm polish, the gorgeous jade green is absolutely perfect for summer. Caliente Coral looks like it could become a quick favorite of mine as well.
I love SEPHORA by OPI nail polishes as they are long lasting and come in lovely colors. The manufacturer’s green ingredient list excludes DBP, toluene, and formaldehyde, which is awesome too. The best part about this set is that it retails for $18, so you can get your summer shade fix on the cheap and easy!
What is your favorite SEPHORA by OPI shade? Would you purchase Havana Nights Mini Collection?
Recently, I was sent a sample of Urban Decay’s fabulous fragrance oil, Revolver, to review. Revolver is a concentrated perfume oil that comes in a small roll applicator. It is very convenient and easy to use, with no threat of leaking or spilling when tucked away in your purse. The small rollerball container looks like a mini nail polish… cute!
According to Urban Decay, Revolver contains notes of lychee, pineapple leaf, fig, amber and egyptian musk. It is definitely a sweet and musky scent that I usually wouldn’t go for. For some reason, though, I am strangely attracted to this edgy fragrance.
Revolver is $26 for 0.14 fl oz. It lasts all day and doesn’t smell cloying or overpowering (in my humble opinion).
You can check it out at UrbanDecay.com!
Have you tried Revolver? What do you think?
I went on a quest for a waterproof mascara recently, and a wise MUA at the store suggested Smoky Lash by Make Up For Ever. I have limited experience with Make Up For Ever products, but out of those I’ve tried, I’ve usually been pleased. I really wanted something that was going to stay put in the melting sun and pool weather that is soon approaching.
According to Make Up For Ever, Smoky Lash (and it’s waterproof counterpart, Aqua Smoky Lash) is said to offer volume, length and intense pigment. I agree that volume and intense pigment are defintely there in this product. It is a bit goopy to apply, but that adds thickness to my sparse lashes, so I don’t mind. It stays put and works beautifully. I wouldn’t mind using a lengthening primer with this mascara, however, because I feel that this mascara does not excel in that field. I would prefer if there was some way to incorporate fibers into this mascara (like my beloved NYX Doll Eye Mascara), but overall I’m very happy with my $22 purchase.
The aforementioned wise MUA also suggested that I don’t wear this waterproof formula every day, as apparently waterproof mascaras are not the best for your lashes. Good to know!

I recently purchased a small size (10mL) of Emilio Pucci Vivara Variazioni Acqua 330 perfume from Sephora. I am not a perfume connoisseur, but I have some standards when it comes to my fragrances of choice.
I generally prefer fruity or foody scents, but this Pucci scent is not either of those things. Instead, Vivara Variazioni is a fresh, marine floral that is reminiscent of days at the beach or dockside. It smells slightly salty, if that is possible, and makes me think of summertime. It is not sweet smelling, nor is it headache inducing – all pluses!
All in all, it is perfect for this pleasant Spring weather we’ve been having in NJ, and I am pleased! I love the small travel size spritz tube. You can find this product at Sephora stores in a cute Pucci print box.

Teen Vogue recently declared that the backpack is making a comeback. When I had an opportunity to review a Yak Pak backpack, I just couldn’t refuse.
I received a cute, durable backpack with a musical pattern design. I could see myself using the backpack to tote around clothes to the gym, as an overnight bag, or as an alternative to a purse for outdoor events.
The best part about Yak Pak backpacks are how affordable they are. With Yak Pak, you don’t have to break the bank to look good! Yak Pak backpacks retail between the affordable price of $25- $45 and are sold at popular national and boutique retailers, like Tilly’s, around the country!
If you’re in the market for a fabulous and affordable backpack, check out Yak Pak. These are also awesome gifts for teens and tweens.
