Help Me to 50!!!

Hello Bombshells!
I need your help! I would like to reach 50 subscribers. Will you help me? The rules are simple:

Join this site (thepinkbombshell.blogspot.com) using the Google Friend Connect and follow the prompts
and friend me (if you haven't already done so) on Facebook

Once I reach 50 subscribers, I will randomly select a 'subbie' which will be announced here on this blog, as well as my, Facebook page. If they are local (Metro-Boston area), they will receive a fun "exotic look" created by Moi to be featured here on the blog and on my Facebook page. If you are not local, I will send you a gift (maximum value of $50) for subscribing. Simple enough right??! There's no time limit on this. Once i reach 50 subbies (or more) I will begin the selection process. So check back often!

Let's get it started!!!

Bombshell Nails: "Silver Gems"

I am always looking for fresh innovative ideas for my nails and this by far fits the bill! I am really excited about this product right here. Its beyond cool. This is an inexpensive alternative compared to the Sephora and Sally Hassen nail decals. Nail Bliss (available exclusively at Sally's Beauty Supplies) offers a variety of 'bling' nail decals that is sure to catch attention. I love this! and depending on you this design can last up to 7-10 days, which is way more than what the packaging suggests. It's really easy to apply and take off and it doesn't damage your nails either. Definitely on heavy rotation in my stash!! Loves it!

Fierce, ain't it?!! (Tyra voice).

Later, Bombshells!

MUL: "Canary Inferno"

I am super excited about this look. It has been a long time since I have done a cut-crease look. I tweeked my technique a bit (so I no longer have to use a creamy base to cut the crease). I am in love with the overall outcome with the exception for the lashes. The lashes, have this glossy finish to it and my camera kept picking up an annoying glare from it. All my pics minus a few exceptions have this white glare that almost looks like lash glue. *Blank stare* Needless to say I will not be purchasing this style of lash from Ardell! Besides that minute detail. I am happy with the overall outcome.
