Lazy Betty

About a week ago, I posted that I was in love with Color Street nail wraps. I finally got my new distributor package in the mail and I’ve made a demo video for you!

But, first, let’s take a look at what OTHER nail wraps do on my super curved nails. The would pucker in the middle and peel at the edges. I’ve tried tons of different brands and different application techniques. I got lost in the dark side of the internet googling “How to troubleshoot nail wraps.”

As it turns out, my nails weren’t the problem, the wraps I was using were!

When I first got Color Street nail wraps on my nails, it was like I finally found what I was looking for. This design is called Brooklyn Beat and you can check it out at www.mycolorstreet.com/lazybetty

Here is a demo video. I also explain a lot of cool features about the wraps so make sure to listen! :)

I got my hands on the Urban Decay Naked Heat palette about a month ago….and then I forgot to post about it! Oopsies! Hopefully, this is better late than never!

The shades are all very warm toned. (If you didn’t know that from the name, then….well…I don’t know what to tell you.)

I did a couple eye looks with this. All of them were very red looking or brown-red looking. I actually kind of like it, but it’s not something I’m going to gravitate toward every day.

As usual, the formula was great. I’ve come to expect that from Urban Decay. If they slap “Naked” on the labelling, I’m going to buy it for sure.

Have you tried this palette yet? What do you think?

I was sent some Toppik Hair Building Shampoo and Conditioner to review. I was pretty excited to get these because I have super thin hair and anything that’s going to make it bigger is a godsend. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with these. They made my hair really dry and brittle.

I even tried mixing the conditioner with castor oil to help put some moisture in my hair, but it didn’t help. I used these for 3 showers before I couldn’t do it to my hair anymore.

I think if you’re prone to oily hair, then Toppik shampoo and conditioner might work really well for you. In fact, I’m going to give these to my dear friend Chelsea over at smackerlacquer for her to try out. She might review, but she might not. Only time will tell…

Even though these didn’t work out for me, I appreciate Toppik sending them my way!

Pretty Serious sent me quite a few lovely polishes to show you!

Pretty Serious Cherry Bomb is a bright pink with golden shimmers. The shimmers are so fine that my camera washed them out a bit. This polish is 1,000x more gorgeous in person.

Pretty Serious Stupid Cupid is a seafoam green creme.

Pretty Serious Misty is a light, dusty green creme.

Pretty Serious Heartbreaker is a shimmery purple.

Pretty Serious Petrichor. Petrichor is a pleasant smell that frequently accompanies the first rain after a long period of warm, dry weather. Fun fact: the world always smells like that, but water makes scents more pungent. It’s why dogs exhale snot balls onto things and then quickly inhale it back in. It’s one of the many ways they smell so well. Trap those scent particles in! This is also why it’s a terrible idea to fart in the shower. #science

Pretty Serious Precipitation. Obviously, I love this one because it’s named after my favorite weather. :) I do have to tell you that it stained my nails, though. So you’ll want to have a good nail bleach scrub handy when you remove this one. Or, just cover up those stains with more polish like I do!

Pretty Serious Overcast. Is it shallow to just love something because of its name? Because this color could have looked like dog diarrhea (too vivid an image?) and I still would love it because overcast days are the best days. Get outta here, sun!

Pretty Serious Cloudburst. This is a lovely calm green.

Pretty Serious Pluviophile. I did not know what a Pluviophile was, so thank god for Google, amiright? It’s a lover of rain; someone who finds joy and peace of mind during rainy days.

OMG YOU GUYS. THERE IS FINALLY A NAME FOR WHAT I AM.

Yours in love,

A die-hard pluviophile.

In classic #lazybetty style, I’m always on the lookout for ways to make my life easier and more efficient. So when I saw my sister post about the Sleep Styler after seeing it on Shark Tank, I knew I had to try it. Here is my video review (spanning two days) of what I think.

In short, I actually really like it and would recommend it – especially if you’re a lazy mofo like me.

My sister called and was mad that the first half of the review didn’t show with my hair completely dry. SO, the takeaway from that part is I think it would have looked even better if it was dry. It looked decent and I’m for sure going to keep using these!

Thanks for reading my Sleep Styler Review! Have you tried these yet? What do you think?
