Cheeky Monkey Filthy Madame Review


You may have heard of me mention Cheeky Monkey nail polishes when I attended the Blush Pretty Beauty Board this past summer.  One polish that I really love is Filthy Madame.  Since metallic nails are in this fall I thought I'd share this with you.  Filthy Madame is a gun metal grey polish with slight shimmers in it.  I really like the bottle and packaging of the polish as it you can easily distinguish it from your collection.  The bottle is cylinder in shape and the name of the color is written all around it. I think that's really cute!  As for the formulation of the polish it's not too thin but also not too thick in consistency.  I however wished that the brush was a bit flatter allowing for a more easy application.  Other than that the colour is beautiful and would look great with an outfit for a night out on the town.


Have you tried Cheeky Monkey nail polishes?  What's your favourite color?

Blush Pretty The Beauty Board: Summer Loving Event




Me and Stephanie of Blush Pretty

This past Sunday I along with 6 of my gal pals attended The Beauty Board presented by Blush Pretty.  We got to mingle, eat great food, but best of all we got to try amazing new products from some of our favourite beauty brands as well as new brands.  My favourite brand of the day was Dalish Cosmetics who not only sells cosmetics but also baby skincare.  A double bonus for this beauty and baby loving mama!  Check out pics of the event below.  I must warn you that this post is picture heavy!  Enjoy!

Gosh I wished I had taken a better picture and one with Melanie the owner of DaLish Cosmetics.  This pic just doesn't do the brand justice!  Afterall, this was my favourite brand of the day!
