Rethink Breast Cancer | OPI Limited Edition Pink of Hearts 2013

Another company that’s thinking PINK this month is OPI and I know that every October I eagerly anticipate what pink, glittery creations they have managed to come up with. This month was no exception as I was captivated by the Pink of Hearts duo containing Pinking of You, a very sweet, creamy pink and More Than a Glimmer, a multi-coloured matte  glitter with a brushed chrome finish, which was most intriguing! There were also some pink ribbon and crystal decals to create some nail art which we know is VERY fashionable right now ;-)

The mani I came up with was sweet and simple with three coats of each polish on my nails. Pinking of You was a bit runny and I had to do a third coat to even out the areas where polish was more sparse. More Than a Glimmer was interesting to say the least. I could have gotten away with two coats, but I wanted as much coverage as I could get so I really layered on the glitter!

Rethink Breast Cancer #BattlePink with Swarovski Bling!

Now this is the kind of fight I want to be a part of! October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and this year marks Rethink Breast Cancer’s 2nd edition of #BattlePink, a creative campaign where Canadian influencers battle online in an effort to raise money and awareness for breast cancer this month. There are a number of retailers involved in Rethink which means that for this month, you can go shopping knowing that you’re getting a quality product and supporting a fantastic cause! Those of you who follow me on Instagram may have seen my most recent jewellery purchase from Swarovski!

One of the limited edition PINK items on sale this month is this “Crystal Moonlight” gorgeous slake bracelet ($80 CDN)! You can twist/thread this bracelet if you have a small wrist and has two crystal snap buttons at the back to further adjust the size.

The next item on my list is the Swarovski Pink Hope Pen ($38 CDN) whose body is filled with 160 Swarovski pink crystals! I would never let this pen out of my sight!
