Hey everyone! I apologize that I am currently behind on answering comments and catching up on everyone's blogs. I worked from 4-close last night at work, and today I had to get my cap and gown, go to lunch, and now I'm heading to work and then seeing my boyfriend! Tomorrow I have a meeting, I have to go to garage sales with my mom, work, my friend's graduation party, and I'm having people over for a movie. So my weekend is already really busy! Hopefully I'll catch up on Sunday. How is your weekend going?

That last image is a close up on my lip so you can see the crazy iridescence of the gloss! I also have it in a color called Diamond Dust. These are $9 on Beauty Ticket, I highly recommend you snag one! I don't know why I haven't been using them lately, they're amazing over lipstick. I also finally bought the Hard Candy primer, and I love it. You need such a teeny amount, and it works so well for only $8- my powder stays all day. I also love the blush- it is the most pigmented I have ever gotten, and it cost $3.
Isn't that necklace lovely? It was part of my birthday present from Blix :D I am also wearing Urban Decay marshmallow scented body powder I got from Lillian's blog sale. I love the smell soooo much! I'm off to work, I hope everyone has a terrific Friday night.
I got 4 packages in the mail today!
From Avon/mark
Aromaleigh
High Voltage Cosmetics
and Cherry Culture!
These pictures are pretty lame colorwise, everything looks a lot brighter irl. The L.A. Colors due, though, actually looks like that, definitely NOT like the picture on the Cherry Culture site *sigh*
Hmm... nope.
I also wanted to show you my nails, using Wet N Wild's "Rain Check" which I got for 99 cents :) I used a coat of CG's Matte Magic on top.
It's grey, it's blue! I love it! PS, I know the yellow is dirty! It's not my carpet, but the towel I keep under my makeup area to try and stop ruining the carpet ;]
I was going to take pictures of my whole Hello Kitty collection and post it, but I decided I'm going to do a Hello Kitty of the Day instead! I don't think showcasing some of my weirder things individually will make me look like any less of a loony, but it'll be more fun! Here are some knee socks my friend Emily just picked me up. I can't wait for warmer weather so I can wear them with a cute little skirt!
I hope everyone's week is going well.
Yesterday I was inspired yet again by Lady Gaga- this one is based off of Lovegame. It was also my 11 months with my boyfriend, so I wanted to do a pinky, Valentines-esque look.
What I used:
Tell Me Lies, by Hi Fi (inner lid)
Beautiful, by Hi Fi (center of lid)
Starlet, by Detrivore (outer lid)
Bandits in Bras, by The She Space (pink liner)
londondungeon, by Aromaleigh (dark liner- why haven't I bought a full size of this yet?)
Covergirl eyeliner in brown black (waterline)
Equality, by Fyrinnae (under waterline)
Max Factor Lash MAXXX mascara
Detrivore Primer, with Fyrinnae's Pixie Epoxy on top
Fyrinnae lip lustre in Lollipop-Pop
Wet N Wild Glassy Gloss in Candy Glaze on top of the lip lustre
I don't think you can tell so much from the picture, but I attempted blush! I never wear it cus I always make myself look dumb. I used Hi Fi's Beautiful, since it's such a light pink. I think it actually turned out well!
I'm going to try blush again soon. :3
I'm getting annoyed with myself with my looks. I realized that both today and yesterday's looks were similar to ones I had already done. Hopefully I'll have time to come up with really good new ones over break :D
What I used:
Detrivore eyeshadow primer
Urban Decay primer potion
Lemon lime brain freeze, by The She Space (inner lid)
estranged, by Aromaleigh (middle lid)
googoomuck, by Aromaleigh (outer lid, blended into estranged)
Ectoplasma, by Detrivore (my attempt at a V)
Voluminous by L'Oreal mascara
Covergirl eyeliner in brown black (waterline)
Death Valley, by Detrivore (eyeliner)
Fyrinnae's Lollipop-Pop lip lustre
Wet N Wild Glassy gloss in Candy Glaze (applied over Lollipop-Pop)
Even though this is a semi-reused look, I really love it. It's so bright and fun; I haven't done any bright makeup in a while because I haven't had time to plan the looks. So this made me happy. :3 SOMEHOW this "v" turned out ok, I don't know I managed it. Someone please tell me how to make a good v! It is my greatest wish in life right now, haha.
Oh, and I got my hair cut! My friend Emily did it for me, and I did her makeup! I didn't have a camera though, which is too bad, because it was AWESOME. And the Chanel necklace is not real... I wish. Happy Friday!
I can't COMPLETELY stop buying anything just because it's December... I have to treat myself a little. Yesterday I grabbed some Wet n Wild gloss from CVS. It's from their Glassy Gloss line. It came in a little box, and when I opened it, there was a HORRIBLE musty smell. I think it is just a really, really old tube of gloss, because when I checked the website, the tube has a totally different design. The color example is also pink on the website, when this gloss is clear with a little bit of pink shimmer. The CVS here is kind of jank, so I guess I should have expected it. Apparently Oprah says this is the shiniest lip gloss, haha. It was $2.99, and I had it on for about 2 hours before it wore off.

My tube:
You can't really tell what it looks like but I liked this picture. :P
Nail polish from Icing, "Uncommited". I LOVE Icing nail polish and makeup. You wouldn't think it would be good quality since it's just some mall brand makeup, but it's GREAT. I have a ton of their polishes. I've been wearing this for 4 days now, I think, with no base or top coat, and there's no chipping. It also has a fat brush so it's easy to apply.
And some cute gloves I grabbed at Target today for only $1.50!
