Sephora Lemmings

I'm back from Texas! I aboslutely LOVED it there. The town was so beautiful, and it wasn't all creepy-south like I imagined, since it's a huge college town. I found the greatest apartment, a 2 bedroom so there's enough room for me and my chinchillas :] My parents are helping me out with payments, and right now the agreement is that I will pay $200 a month, so that covers utilities and part of rent. I will definitely need to cut back on my makeup spending while I'm there, and try to save as much as possible so I have funds in case of an emergency or something. I also need to curb my spending right now, which is hard, as I have about a million indie things I want, as well as a bunch of stuff from mark/Avon, and from the Hard Candy line, and from Sephora and Ulta. :P Luckily most of it is pretty cheap, so I can still get a few things here and there even though I'm saving. Plus I have a Target gift card since I got Employee of the Month again, so I can get some pretty things with that ^_^ I did a cool look today, but I don't have the camera here with me, so hopefully I can post pictures later when my mom comes home with it. I really feel like posting though, so here is my high-end makeup lemming list of the moment! All of it is priced really well, all very affordable. Some of it is on sale though, so I should probably snatch some things up before the sales end... images are clickable.

I know Ulta brand isn't actually "high end", but I thought it fit with this wishlist well enough.

As you can see, I really love sets. I think you get a lot of different stuff for your money. The only oddball is the UD liner in shade Ecstasy... I have ones of their liquid liners already that I got for $5 off HauteLook, and I love it. It applies amazingly. I have tried NYX and Milani liquid liner also and I canNOT apply them well. This liner is the greatest shade of purple ever, and I know I'll actually be able to apply it. What high end makeup are you craving right now? I'd love to see your current lemmings :]

Sunday is boring!

Hi everyone, I'm not feeling inspired enough right now to bother to actually shower and do a look, so I thought I'd ramble for a while. :) I keep forgetting to say, which is weird since it's the most important thing ever, that I got into Texas A&M! It's my top choice school and I'm so excited. Even though it's out of state, I can probably get in state tuition since I qualify for the Honors Program. Yesterday was 10 months with my boyfriend. Things are really looking up right now! Moving on in the makeup direction, I thought I'd talk about a product I can't live without, my Revlon ColorStay under eye concealer. I have very dark under eye circles all the time, it's just my genetics. I hated when people would always say "Oh, you look tired" when I was totally fine. I tried some Physician's Formula stuff, it looks like a yellow tube of lipstick. It didn't work though :/ (but their redness concealer, which looks like a green tube of lipstick, works very well for me). I grabbed the Revlon stuff on a whim, and it makes a HUGE difference. Even if I barely put on any makeup I use it. I saw a review of Youtube just now where the girl thought it didn't work too well. I think it's because she put SO much on. The less I use, the better it looks. You just need a very tiny amount. I very much want something I saw on the Nouveau Cheap blog, the Nailene French Manicure Guides. They're these little nail stickers that you use to get perfect looking tips. *drool* I wonder if I just did cool tips, and not painted my whole nail, if I could get away with it at work? :P Yesterday I placed an order with Hi Fi Cosmetics, . I ordered 10 samples, and I'm pretty excited. The swatches I've seen on various blogs make them look really great. I also ordered some eyeshadow samples and primer from Detrivore. I can't wait to try out the primer, which the lovely Lisa Kate reccomended to me. Yesterday I also emailed the owner of Glittersniffer. The colors are stunning, and I want to make sure they are created by herself as opposed to repackaged pigments. I sent an e-mail asking about it, and as of yet I have not heard a response. I'm sure she is busy with orders and hopefully I will hear back in the next couple days. If I get myself in gear and actually do a look today, I'll be posting it later. :)
