So I'm back from Seattle!
I know I said I will be staying there till Tuesday, but change of plans- I'm back and I'm home.
I went a little crazy in Seattle because if you are a Canadian like me, you will know how it feels to be taxed BIG TIME and it is not good, not good at all. So, every now and then I go down to Seattle and do my shopping there.
Here are the things I bought in Seattle:
- Plain V-necks shirts in Target(Yes! MORE PLAIN SHIRTS FOR ME)
- NEW L'oreal Volume Million Mascara in Target(I will do a review on this and will be comaring it to the original L'oreal Voluminous Mascara)
- Tops from Nordstrom
- Wrap Bracelets from Nordstrom
- Beauty Secret Top Coat and Seche Restore Thinner in Sally's
- A back-up of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat(I just need a new one)
- Aveeno Gentle Facial Wipes from Target(will also be doing a review of this)
I do not want to do a BIG HAUL in just one post because I just won't have anything to post next time.
I will first show you what nail products I bought from Sally's Beauty Store and accessories I bought from Nordstrom.
First up- I bought another Seche Vite, but I will not show you the boring stuff because I know you guys seen tons of pictures of Seche Vite Fast Dry Top Coat.
Second- I got the Seche Vite Restore Thinner ($9.00 as shown below). I got this because I heard from a lot of people that it will "restore" the old-murky-thick Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat- yes, it comes with a dropper. I tried it earlier and it really did RESTORE the old Seche. I'm REALLY SATISFIED with this Seche thinner . I would highly recommend this product. I will do a more in depth review of this product, maybe a video? yea?
Lastly- I saw a review of this Beauty Secret Top Coat from a Youtube Make-up guru, but I forgot who. I'm really curious if this knocks the pants of Seche Dry Fast Top Coat. I will also do a more in depth review of this. Maybe, I will do a post comparing this Beauty Secret Top Coat and the Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.It's HUGE!
Anyways, enough with the nail products and let me show you what accessories I bought.
If you are following me on TWITTER, which you should because I feel very UNLOVED :D . You will know that I've been wanting a Chan Luu wrap Bracelet, but I can't decide if I will buy it now or not because of the price. If you are not familiar with Chan Luu wrap bracelets, you can find them here. They range from $150-$300- I know they are bad for your wallets, but I just love how chic and bohemian-looking they are, but for now, a knock off of these pretty bracelets will do. :)
I went to Nordstrom and found these Chan Luu wrap bracelets knock off. These are NOT the real Chan Luu bracelets, but I can say that they are VERY identical. The only difference is that it is not made out of leather, it only cost USD $14.99, and it only wraps around your wrist 4 times(Chan Luu Bracelets wraps around your wrist 5 times). I can't find them on the Nordstrom website, but you can definitely find these pretty wrap bracelets in any Nordstrom department stores in the U.S.
oh, follow me on Twitter
Have a good week :)

almost three years ago, i bought bracelets that are identical to the chanlulu and your new one from American Eagle for less than $12.
