Nails and Paris

I've been trying to treat my nails and get some strength as they have always been very thin. My nails grow very fast (I cut them down at least once a week). For work I need them to be a reasonable length, not too long but I do like a bit of length. While browsing for swap stuff for Mags and Roz, I found a nail strengthener that contains Wheat Protein and Calcium. The product (which is made by Ruby Kisses- fan of their cosmetics!) is said to "Strengthen, Hydrate and Restore Fragile Nails". I've only been using it for about 2 weeks (I did skip a couple of days when I didn't have it with me while I was away). While I like the way it applies, it's too soon to actually tell if it's going to work and help. But for $1.99- I'm not expecting a miracle:)

After leaving my nails bare- with just the strengthener for a few days I was ready for one of the polishes I received in my swap from Mags- A polish I had seen in countless blogs and searched for dupes everywhere! Barry M Peach Melba. It's exactly how I pictured it to be- a perfect pastel peach! I adore it!! I'm soooo glad she included it! It really compliments my skin tone. I love it!

While browsing Forever 21 last week for some tanks/tees to wear during the heat- I wandered over to their accessories section and saw an adorable plastic zip up travel bag with four bottles to fill up with lotions, shampoo/conditioner or face products! I had to pick it up! I sometimes have to work overnight and stay at my employers house- having to lug all my toiletries is a hassle. This is the perfect set up- 2 of the bottles have flip up caps, 1 has spray and the last one a pump! Each one can hold about 60 ml of products. I love all things Parisian (despite not having been there- yet!) I had to grab it, it was only $3.80! They also had if available in black (with cream colored dots). I've yet to fill them up and actually use them but hopefully the quality is decent and sturdy!

Has anyone else purchased any good deals lately?
