Nail Polish-Which works best?

It’s funny as I was channel surfing the other night and Pulp Fiction was on. It was the part that Uma Thurman was in.  Remember how crazy everyone got over her nail polish?  It’s been a few years ago, (okay like 20) since Pulp Fiction came out, but I remember her part vividly.  I loved that polish.  Was I going to pay more than $20 for a bottle of Chanel polish, um no.  I found a dupe that looked just a good.

So I made a trip to Dollar Tree today and bought a bunch of nail polish.  I was showing my husband what I bought, and telling him that it’s amazing how much ladies spend on nail polish.  One blogger I follow says she has 900 bottles! Wow! I have about 50, and I thought that was way too much.

Do you really need to spend a lot on nail polish? I’ve been using drugstore brands and Ulta’s own brand for years.  I don’t think I’ve paid more than $6 for a bottle of nail polish.  I’ve found that as long as you use a good base and top coat, you don’t have to spend a fortune on polish.

Here’s an article I found on the most expensive nail polish in the world.  Crazy!

How to save on make up

I spend a lot of money on cosmetics.  This clip from Good Morning America has some good tips. I would never spend $10 for nail polish.  I do get a lot of good deals on products.  I don’t hesitate to take something back if it doesn’t work. I don’t smoke, barely drink, and don’t gamble.  A girl needs her make up fix!
