I got this for free with there special new nail polish offer so I was so excited to try this nail polish.I wore it for the opening of Prince of Persia.:P After doing 3 coats I really love the way it looked on my fingernails. The color is a light taupe/gray color. I didnt get any chipping and after three days i decide to change my nail color and i noticed it still hadnt chipped. So i wonder how long it would of lasted??I love this nail color it is going to be on of my all time favorites and for only a 1.00 i will buy this color again.

Top/Base Coats -Orly - Nail Armor
rated 4 of 5
Rockabillygirl 5/26/2010 12:57:00 AM

I received this in a swap and I really love the concept of it being a Silk wrap and a ridgefiller and you can also use this as a base coat! I applyed my two coats and i noticed that in the nail polish has some small little fibers i am guessing that is the silk in the nail polish. I did notice a difference in my nails as soon as it dryed.They were really hard. The reason why i give it 4 lippies is because i think the small fibers in the nail polish make it difficult to apply nail polish and keeping it smooth. I noticed that when i did my 4 coats of nail polish over this it didnt looks smooth. But this does work and i would buy this and use it without nail polish.

Polishes -Unlisted Brand - Hot Topic Matte White Nail Polish
rated 4 of 5
Rockabillygirl 5/21/2010 12:15:00 AM

I brought this at Hot Topic for $2.99. The color it is a light off white. The nail polish is really thin. I had to apply 4th coat on my nails. It still looks like two more coat would look good. It lasted a while before it chipped of my fingernails. I really like the cute bottle shape, but I dont like the wide mouth of the bottle only because it seems to me that if it is a bigger opening it will cause the nail polish to dry out quicker. I dont like the small top of the bottle because it is kind of hard to hold in your hand. The brush was fine I didnt have any problems with it. The only reason I give it 4 lippies is because of the wide mouth of the bottle and also because of the top. Yes I would buy this item again. I look forward on trying other matte nail polishes from Hot Topic.

Polishes -Unlisted Brand - Hot Topic Cobalt Blue Matte Nail Polish
rated 4 of 5
Rockabillygirl 5/21/2010 12:10:00 AM

I brought this at Hot Topic for $2.99. I really like the color it is a very Dark bright matte blue. The nail polish is really thin and after three coats I just left it like that since I didnt want to apply a 4th coat on my nails. It lasted a while before it chipped of my nails. So it did stay on my nails for awhile. I really like the cute bottle shape, but i dont like the wide mouth of the bottle only because it seems to me that if it is a bigger opening it will cause the nail polish to dry out quicker. I dont like the small top of the bottle because it is kind of hard to hold in your hand. The brush was fine I didnt have any problems with it. The only reason I give it 4 lippies is because of the wide mouth of the bottle and also because of the top. Yes I would buy this item again. I look forward on trying other matte nail polishes from Hot Topic.

Polishes -E.L.F. - Punk Purple
rated 2 of 5
Rockabillygirl 5/19/2010 12:54:00 PM

There isnt any thing punk about this nail polish it is just a boring plum color! I give it only 2 lippies because I did use a base coat and this color stained my nails like crazy! Now I am having a hard time taking the stain off with out buffing my nail.I never had this problem in the past with any of the ELF nail polishes i guess there is something wrong with this nail color.This did last about 2 days without it chipping.No I wouldnt buy it again even though it is only $1.00.

Fragrances -Aquolina - Pink Sugar
rated 4 of 5
Rockabillygirl 5/9/2010 5:38:00 PM

I really like the scent it smells kind of like cotton candy or cupcake, I cant quit put my finger on it.It does last all day. The reason why I give it 4 lippies is because it gives me a headache after awhile.I dont think I will repurchase this fragrance again only because a little goes along way and I think I can make my bottle stretch for awhile.

Polishes -Sinful - Dream On
rated 4 of 5
Rockabillygirl 5/8/2010 11:08:00 PM

I really like this color! I was very attracted to it when I saw the bottle. The only down side is it is matted rather than having a gloss to it. I dont have a problem with it being matted, but the bottle didnt say it was matted.You can put a top coat over it but i prefer it matted but i didnt like that this color didnt last long. By the second day it was chipping.

Rockabillygirl 5/8/2010 11:04:00 PM

I love this color! It is a very creamy color. It kind of reminded me of some highend brands that I had tried before! I Think Chanel Particuliere is the nail polish it kind of reminds me of.Only two or three coats and your good to go!

Polishes -E.L.F. - Dark Navy
rated 5 of 5
Rockabillygirl 5/8/2010 10:59:00 PM

I brought Dark Navy for only 1.00. My manicure lasted for awhile if you do the base and top coat other wise they will chip. I wish they would come up with more colors.The brush is a bit too small but you can work around that since it is only 1.00. Yes i would rebuy this items again!

Polishes -Unlisted Brand - Love My Nails
rated 5 of 5
Rockabillygirl 5/5/2010 4:55:00 AM

I brought the color called Chrome Pomegranate at my local wal-mart for under $3.00. The color is a a reddish to pinky orange color. I fell in love with the color so much that i ended up buying a 4 pack from the Love my nails site online. The color lasts a really long time. The quality reminds me of a highend salon brand.I can go a whole week with a perfect manicure and no chipping in between. For it being a cheap brand i will buy this nail polish again but in bulk!

Misc Beauty Tools -E.L.F. - tweezers
rated 5 of 5
Rockabillygirl 5/5/2010 4:50:00 AM

I brought two of these tweezers and i noticed they were both different! I spend the $1.00 for each tweezer. I did noticed one is rather large and difficult to hold in my hand. When i tried to pluck out my eyebrows i noticed that since they are rather large they tend to pinch my skin. These work better for longer hair rather than the small stub hair that is barely growning. So in order to use this one you have to let your hair grow out a little bit so it can grab it properly.The other one that is more like the pictures shown on here those work way better! I am very happy with how they work. They pluck out all types of hairs and they dont pinch like the larger one.I would re purchase the smaller tweezers but not the large one.

Treatments -Queen Helene - Cholesterol Hot Oil Treatment
rated 4 of 5
Rockabillygirl 4/28/2010 12:48:00 AM

I brought the 3 pack for $2.50 at my local dollar store! The tube is really awesome because you get to reseal it so you can use only half a tube.I know some require you to use tthe whole tube because you cant reseal it. So really you are getting 6 tubes in all. I have shoulder length hair so i use a whole tube only because i like to get all of my hair covered with the hot oil. I normally use a towel to keep it hot.I did notice a difference in my hair but what i have to do is rinse it really good other wise it gets really oily for my hair and it weights it down. So what i do is after i use this i use my regular conditioner, even though the tube says rinse and style i have to use conditioner so my hair wont be oily after words. That is really why i gave it 4 lippies because it does leave your hair a bit oily after words, but it does work!

Scrubs -LUSH - Sugar Scrub
rated 4 of 5
Rockabillygirl 4/27/2010 6:32:00 PM

I really like the way this left my skin. It left it soft and smooth. The scent smells really good. It smells like somethingsweet and flowery. I noticed that other reviewers said that it felt a little to much like sand paper/gritty rocks. I didnt experience that since it didnt scrub that hard on my skin. What it didnt like was that as soon as it hits water it dissolves very quickly. So when this happened i was scrubbing really fast. I guess next time I am going to put this in a ziplock bag and break it up because it is kind of pricey and you only get a one time use and it is worst if water hits it.So i give it 4 lippies only because it dissolves like a bath bomb which it isnt.

Hair Styling Tools -Conair - Infiniti Tourmaline Ceramic Straightener - 2 inch plates
rated 3 of 5
Rockabillygirl 4/5/2010 2:27:00 AM

I recently brought this one because i need to replace my broke hair straightener. I brought this because it had a wet to dry feature that my last hair staightener had. This works good the plates get hot. I like that the plates are 2 inches because I like to cut my time in half and use a larger plate to make my hair straight faster.It also has somewhat of a comb in the plates.The red color is really pretty and it also has a satin touch to it that makes holding the straightener easy since it is kind of like a rubberized feel to it. What I dont like is that it doesnt smooth out the ends of my hair. I think the combs are what mess that up! I also have a problem with it pulling my hair from the sides of the plates. Other than that it works really good! I dont think i will rebuy this item because i spend 50.00 on it and i think i could of gotton a cheaper one that works better!
