Birthday Brownies!

My birthday was September 19th and Jason made some very special brownies for me in lieu of cake.

He used the brownie recipe I blogged about previously and topped them with a chocolate ganache and coconut shreds.



The brownie was very moist and fudgey, the ganache felt like silk against the roof of my mouth and the coconut gave it that extra pop of flavor.

The brownie piece in the photo was the very last one. Hmm what can I do to get him to make more?!

Revlon: Haunted Heart

Stunning spicy pumpkin color and gorgeous golden shimmer, this is what Haunted Heart is made of!


This is three coats topped with HKG topcoat from Amazon.


The formula is nice on this one, very smooth application. Plenty of time to do extra brushing to smooth out those shimmer streaks a little.

Fall is one of my favorite seasons - leaves changing color, light breezes, the smell of bonfire smoke and toasted marshmallows! Plus all the beautiful new polish colors to feast our eyes on!

What is your favorite season and colors of polish to wear with it?

Polish Haul Bottle Shots

I did a late night run to Walgreen's last night in my ongoing search for Halloween/Fall polishes and finally scored some!



All Aglow and Lava
These are the shimmery-est, most glowy looking colors in the bottle. I'm so excited to have found them! I ended up getting four of the lava and two of the All Aglow - its all they had!


Haunted Heart, Spooky Skull, Wicked Star
I just love the golden shimmer in the Green and Orange colors and while Spooky Skull may not look special, I really think it is. Swatching will tell, but it looks like a jelly white and I absolutely LOVE Revlon's matte white in Powder Puff so I'm super excited about this one!

Wicked Star reminds me a lot of CC's Magic Elf from a few years ago. I wasn't ever able to get my hands on that one, but I think this one will do nicely in its place!


Just look at the delicious shimmah!


The Mystic's Fortune, The Muse's Attitude, The Temptress' Touch, The Temptress' Power


I especially love the The Mystic's Fortune. Its so deep and dark yet very glowy and its the most beautiful blurple I've laid eyes on.


I may or may not have a near dupe of The Muse's Attitude, but I got it anyway because it too is deep dark and still glowy looking.


The Temptress' Touch seems pretty unique to me. Its a dirty lime green with chartreuse shimmer inside. Excited to see how it looks on the nail.



The Temptress' Power looks like oxidized copper to me. The green flash is more prominent than I can show in a photo, absolutely stunning!

I am in love with each and every one of these, what do you think of them?
