Sally & Bluenotes haul

Posted by Halifax @ Sparkled Beauty

I went in to Sally in the weekend. They didn't have any new China Glaze, except the Love You Snow Much collection which I already saw last time. However, there were these little gift sets from Orly that I think you would be interested.

The orange box is the Enchanted Duo, with Prima Gloss (prismatic top coat) and Enchanted Forest polish. The sticker on the top coat bottle said "Shake it up!", I think shaking would change the look of it, haven't tried. Enchanted Forest is a cream, doesn't come with the little charm that the single bottles have.

The red box is the Sparkle Kit, with Star Spangled and Tiara glitter polishes.

These colours are not new, but the price is really good. The sets are CAD7.49 each (with Sally card) with full sized bottles (.6oz/ 18ml). Considering the singles are sold at CAD5.99 each, this is a steal. They are my very first Orly bottles and I'm excited. I'm a little unsure about Enchanted Forest, as I suck at applying cream polishes, but I was curious about the top coat, so I got both sets. Have you seen these around? Do you like them?

Bluenotes store next door was having extra 50% off (red tagged items) and extra 20% the whole store for the day, so I bought some graphic Ts and plaid shirts. It's not easy to photograph them all, so I'm gonna use stock pictures to show you the deals.














The Keyhole Stripe Racerback Tank was CAD12.50, down to CAD5, and the "Just Hangin' Out Cupcaking" Tee was CAD5.80 (org. CAD14.50) as red tagged items.
The plaid shirts were 2 for CAD30 (org. CAD29.50 or CAD24.50 each), came out CAD12 each.

It was a fun trip, but short. It was raining and Squirt wanted to go home. She has to stay home today, and so do I. Hope your Monday goes well!

    first :( poor squirt~ hope it gets better soon~ its not fun to miss playing with ur friends at school.

    second...OMG ORLY! lol
    I don't own them either, but had been eyeing the prima gloss since they were released/I saw swatches on other nail blogs.

    I ALMOST bought it yesterday too! XD but was able to step away (though it took everything I got). Maybe after IMATS when I feel as though I haven't spent my life on random stuff from Imats, I will go back and get it, cause it IS a steal. Actually the other reason was Im not too fond of the forest colour...wished it was a nicer colour...then I probably would have ended up buying them :)

    Aww, I love the cupcake shirt - so cute! I haven't tried ORLY lacquers as of yet, but this seems like a good time to check out my sally's :))

    rasilla, thank you! She needs to be better or I'm losing all my time at work :-) And she misses her friends for sure. Yeah, the sets are exciting and boring at the same time, how funny!

    Julienne, yep, I got a few of those shirts, very cute prints on the front. Sally's is always fun to check out.

    Papaya BUnny, did the coupon come in email or was it a print off at Sally? Nice to have it once in a while :-)

    so I renewed my sally's card (expired november)
    and I got $5 coupon, as usual, so I think I'm going to jump and buy the polish!
    but I'm just not sure which one to get...
    I love Ruby Pumps so I think I would like the red glitter too...but I do want the holo gloss, though I really don't like deep greens like the one they have in the set :T

    ahhh the decisions one has to make XD

    I wasted a $5 coupon in Nov for not being there to use. My card expires in Dec so prob I would get one too. The colour combination does suck, huh?

    I love enchanted forest. It's a great slightly greyed out forest green. Fantastic.
