A GIRL OBSESSED: Glittersaurus & Ice Age

A Girl Obsessed Glittersaurus (L) and Ice Age (R)

Today I have 2 polishes by A Girl Obsessed! Can we all pause and admire the name Glittersaurus? Haha love it! Glittersaurus and Ice Age are a part of her Limited Edition Neon Dino Nuggets Collection. After the jump I have swatch and review of these 2 hot polishes!

PS: I changed up my watermark for this post, not quite sure how to feel about it haha figured it was worth a shot trying it out these next few days since I paid for the app lmao

Stupid Facebook is Stupid

I wasn't going to post this, but the time has come! 

For those who follow my blog and like my Facebook page - I doubt most of you are seeing a good chunk my Facebook posts. My viewings have randomly plummeted (from it's usual number of views) by 80% in the last week and I'm sure Facebook is to blame lol If it's not, then whatever, but I'm pretty sure Facebook is to blame.

If you want to make sure you're seeing all my Facebook posts:

1) www.Facebook.com/laceandlacquers

2) Hover over the "liked" button and then choose the "show in News Feed option":

I don't want anyone to miss out on posts or giveaways and other crap I post/share on Facebook, but apparently Facebook wants you to miss everything haha so, we'll see if this fixes it.

Thanks!

Hey guys, today's list isn't all prettily formatted :-\ I'm not feeling too good today and my brain is having troubles typing, with 10 medical transcriptions for school to do, I gotta choose my battles wisely haha. So, this post is just missing pictures and pretty titles, I added end dates and the links as always. I apologize to anyone who sent me links. I do this for my blogger friends and my readers (not myself, despite popular belief haha) and I feel slightly guilty it isn't up to par :-\
