Project X Pan

Yes, you are reading the title of this post right, I am doing a project X pan. For those of you who don't know what project pan is there are many rules but I'll just give you a general idea. The goal is to use up a certain number of products before you buy anything new. Some people also go on a low buy during this period because for some it can last several months. I don't know how those people do it. Well I've decided to do this since I have a lot of makeup and need to take a break for a little bit from buying it. Starting on October 1st I won't be buying any makeup or skincare products only 100% necessary (i.e. I run out of toner or cleanser).

Fall/Winter Nail Polish Collection +Swatches

Since Fall will be here soon I decided to whip out my fall/winter nail polishes. I have a very large collection of nail polish. I think I counted 40 colors that I would wear in the Fall/Winter. That's a lot. I could wear each polish only once if I switched my polish twice a week. So being that's what I counted I'm going to make that my goal. Hopefully you will be seeing NOTD posts at once a week so that I can try and rotate my polishes. I have way more polish during this season as I prefer vampy dark colors. I have a wide variety of polishes from Julep to China Glaze to OPI to Essie to Sinful. So hopefully you can find something that catches your eye in this post. I also tried my best to get you decent photos of the colors. Unfortunately the weather here in NYC has been terrible and I also live in a dark apartment. Plus a lot of the colors are very similar so its hard to tell a difference in some of the darker colors. I hope this gets you all in the mood for Fall.

Nail of the Day: Rimmel English Rose

Today's NOTD is Rimmels Lasting Finish Pro in English Rose. I picked this up at the drugstore recently since I wanted a new fall color nail polish. This is a rose color with brown undertones.  It's just a really pretty fall color. I only had to do 2 coats of this color as it is pretty opaque.
