February Faves!

Hey y'all this is Asa. I'm here with a new post just before the month ends and it is going to be a faves post.  
SO how this is going to work is that CJ and I are going to make monthly faves post but we are going to be alternating it. This month is mine and next month, March, will be CJ's faves post.

The larger tube is a Victoria's Secret Ultra Moisturizing Hand and Body Cream in the scent Midnight Dare which smells like raspberries and sandalwood.

I also have an EOS lip balm from the Rachel Roy Collection in Aloha Hawaii and it is supposed to smell like strawberries and kiwi.

I recently purchased the Essence Gel Eye Pencil in the shade Black Blaze 01

The pink tube is NYX's Soft Matte Lip Cream in Ibiza

And Rimmel London's Rockin' Curves ScandalEyes mascara I got in a previous VoxBox from Influenster 

Ulta Haul

Ulta haul! Reviews and swatches to follow.

I got a lot of stuff, but it was a cumulative haul <33

I got some acne lotion I read good reviews of, got a backup CeraVe as it was on sale, and a face cleanser from Yes To Cucumbers.

Face masks from Freeman Beauty and Formula 10.0.06, face spray/toner, makeup remover, the pink bag is full of free samples from Ulta.

Last pic are my NYX Butter Glosses, Soft Matte Lip Cream, and NYX Vampy Lip Cream

Spider-man Nails for the Amazing Spider-man!

 Hey guys! This is Asa. I know that we have not been on since April (I believe) but here we are!
This time we have a superhero theme and to start it off, Spider-Man.
If you want to know more about Spidey, here's a link.
I googled various images of Spider-Man and his costume and came up with this nail design.

Here is another picture:

And here are the colors I used:

From L to R: Base COat by NK, Wet n Wild Everybody Loves Redmond, Wet n Wild Saved by the Blue, Nail art striper in black and white, Fast Dry Top Coat by NK

Japanese Cherry Blossom Nail Art

Hey, it's Asa here! I know I haven't posted in a while but here I am. :)
For the base of this design I used KlassicColor Nail Lacquer in Pastel Teal. the branches of the tree was created using a nail striper (Wild Beauty Nail Paint in # 2 Black), the white petals were created using Wet 'n' Wild's color icon nail color in French White Creme and the soft pink petals were made by using e.l.f.'s Nail Polish in Light Pink (#81003).

This nail art was actually inspired by the Arizona Green Tea can. Instead of creating cherry blossoms on ALL my fingers, I decided to twist things up and drew the kanji symbol for "cherry blossom" in black polish on my ring finger using this picture as my guide.

The kanji symbol took a bit longer than painting the cherry blossoms because I wanted it to be perfect.
As you can see in the picture, I have put a small dot of the light pink in the middle of the white petals. This design can also be created with a white base or even a clear one if you do not have a pastel teal polish. You can even make the petals shimmery to make it more fun. The branches don't have to be black but I decided to make them this way because I didn't have a brown striper. Cherry blossoms are all the rage in the world of nail art and I decided to give it a whirl by putting my own twist on it.
