halloween nails

I love Halloween as much as the next guy. Or maybe more than the next guy, so when I saw the new Sally Hanson nail designs for halloween I could not wait to buy them! So I bought two of them and here is the first. My only complaint is that I planned on them only lasting for a week or so and then switching but these are still going strong! So it's not really a complaint!

austin-tatious turquoise

Austin-Tatious Turquoise by OPI as part of their Texas collection is absolutely gorgeous! Turquoise is one of my favorite colors and this nail polish does it justice by far!

smiling bright teeth whitening system

I bought the Smiling Bright teeth whitening system when livingsocial.com had a special deal to get one at home whitening system with LED light for $29 when it is regularly $180. I had been wanting to whiten my teeth (I have used the crest white strips before but not for a year) and this was just such a good deal I couldn't pass it up!

The instructions were very clear and easy to follow:

  • prep your lips and gums with the provided vitamin e
  • insert the tray and make sure your teeth are pressed right into the gel
  • put the light right up against the tray and inside your lips
  • turn it on for 20 minutes
  • remove tray and rinse out your mouth
I took before and after photos (see below) and of the kit, but because it has been raining here for the past couple of days the photos are not that great. I will post a follow up after photo once we see the sun again! Also I took the after photo right after and I think with some time they might become whiter. But I think you can see the difference, top one is the before and bottom one is after.


My overall opinion is that it worked! There was some tingling during and after the process but nothing too bad. My only warning is that you can't breath through your mouth for 20 minutes which I didn't think of so it was kind of a problem for me because I was so stuffed up today! But the LED light can be reused and you can purchase more tray and they sent a coupon for 50% off the refills, so maybe I will do it again.  

Also I would highly recommend joining Livingsocial and Groupon because they have some really good deals in your area and new ones everyday such as this and you don't want to miss out. 


*I purchased this myself and can not guarantee that you will have the same results that I had*
