MAC IN LILLYLAND + ALL AGES ALL RACES ALL SEXES

HELLO LOVELY LADIES (&& GENTLEMEN IF THERE ARE ANY!) :D

*sigh* I went to MAC again.. well to check out the new collections that released! hahaha, it was in my planner so it was a "scheduled" thing :P

MAC in Lillyland released & so did the All Ages, All Races, All Sexes collection ^_^
These are all the items I got from the Lillyland collection!
  • Pearlmatte face powder
  • Resort Life lip gelee
  • So Sweet, So Easy cremeblend blush
The face powder is more of a collector item for me, although I am going to use it :D! I didn't really want anything from this collection until I got there LOL..! Makeup artist there tried on florida cremeblend blush on me and it was gorgeous! ^_^ I didn't get that shade because it reminded me too much of MAC's tippy blush that came out with the hello kitty collection... I swatched the one I got on my hand heavily and it didn't look overdone so I figured even if I used a heavy hand I don't think I'll over do it :P

I also grabbed the close for comfort tinted lip conditioner (from warm&cozy) because I have been into trying to fix my lips lately! This one will cover up my bloody looking lips because they get so dry and then I pick at it and then my skin is bare and it hurts even worse than before -___-"
I like it and it's not too bright like popster so I know I will use it daily along side with my other lip balms/conditioners :)

And from the other collection I got these two products -___-" I already have naked frost so no need for that lippie :P I almost passed this lipgloss up! I had to try it on and first it didn't look good because it's so opaque.. then I used my fingers to blend it in some more and then I was like YES! I love it!!! :D It's like a nude pink on me and I will use the lipstick under it :) ..although I should've waited and debated if I really needed the lipstick :/ but you girls know me... just cannot resist!
Maybe I'll do lip swatches another day..

OH FYI, the lip gelees are like dazzleglasses but in a tube! OMG, the shimmer on that baby is like BAM IN YOUR FACE! haha xD And the best thing is, the size is ENORMOUS and it comes out of a tube so no double dipping your brush :P And I guess it'll extend the life of your lipgloss because it doesn't contaminate it? o_O

I'm working on an awards blog post.. haha! I'll probably do it during work or something if it's slow :P

I am also gonna get rid of my hello kitty palettes.. *GASPS* I know! I just figured I'm only keeping them as a "collector" kinda item, but I honestly don't like the frickin colors! They're so unwearable for me, or at least the too dolly palette and the lucky tom palette just doesn't really show up on my skintone! UGH.. so frustrating right? So I figured, I might at well let someone else have it to use because I know it's just gonna sit in my drawers right? Up on the blog sale it goes... *SIGH*

Goodnight! I can't sleep so I'm gonna try to organize my makeup area.. AGHHH, it's so messy in here! There's probably a REAL mouse living in the dust bunnies LOL!

MAC HAUL + CVS HAUL

Rai wanted to to hurry up and post my CVS haul that I got yesterday because of her post here. But I was planning to post my MAC stuff I got last week today so I just made a video for her :)

Here's my MAC stuff I got last week when the Warm & Cozy Collection debuted ^_^
I got...
  • Feelin` Good Tinted Lip Conditioner
  • 2N Lipglass
  • Feeling Dreamy Lipglass
  • Warm It Up Lipstick
  • Feline Kohl Power (from the Love Lace Collection)
I realize that the two lipglasses are almost the same exact color but I know that already but I still got it :P I also wanted to get 3N lipglass because it looked okay on, but then I realized I really won't use it too often so I backed out. The other TLC (Close for Comfort) I was gonna get too but I remembered how often I used the HK Popster (before it melted) and that it wouldn't be too often that I'd run out so I just stuck with one. I should've left Feeling Dreamy at the store but it was too pretty at the time to leave behind -___-"

This MAC Haul is from the Baroque Boudoir Collection that has been sold out online & everywhere else! :) I'm so glad that I found these lippies (a couple of days before christmass too I might add) at the MAC store at Parks Mall! ^_^ Thanks Steph (from Julu Jewelry for the heads up!) I was sooo lucky to get these two things and happy that I called ahead because the lipstick was the LAST ONE! I would've been bummed if I got up there and they said "I just sold the last one an hour ago".. =___=
Doesn't the packaging look so luxurious?!?! I love how it stands out with all my other MAC packaging/boxes :P
I got...
  • D'Nouveau Lipglass
  • Treasured Lipstick
I got the darkest lipglass because from all the swatches I saw, they were all too sheer! Hopefully this will just give me a nice pink tint to my lips ^_^ And I was debating between Prive and Treasured Lipstick but since they were sold out of the pink one it was easier to make a decision :D

Okay, enough makeup talk, well actually there's a whole video on it now hahaha! :) This one is for Rai! ^_^ I'm feeling lazier and lazier to take pictures of my hauls but I really don't want to broadcast myself on youtube?!?! What should I do???


Any questions, let me know! Should I continue to make stupid videos or should I just keep it as pictures? LOL.. I hate my webcam! Does photobooth do this to anyone else or am I just the only one?!?! If I am the only one, I am going to apple and making them fix it!

Don't worry, I didn't forget your awards.... because I wrote them all down on my planner! xD Now the question is, how to put them up all at once?!?! Oh well, I'm lucky most of them are simple :D

HAPPY [LATE] NEW YEAR + LOOK

Hello my loves! Happy new years everyone :) I know I am a few days late but it's better late than never right?! ^_^ So far, this year is sucking and I have a feeling this year is gonna be sucky.. but I'll try to look forward to it anyway :D

So I wanted to post this look before it gets old and I forget, haha! I wore this out on New Year's Eve to my brother-in-law's house since they threw a house party. The weather was freezing, the winds were blowing hard, and I didn't get drunk! (so it was colder LOL)


I wanted to try out the Jesse's Girl Eye Dust that Chomsiri sent me :) I am really impressed with this product and I will probably buy more online since there isn't a retailer that carries Jesse's Girl around here ^_^

Recreating the eyeball -- products in order of application
- Smashbox Photo Finish Lid Primer
- Jesse's Girl Eye Dust in Galaxy (if I'm correct)
- Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Midnight Cowboy Rides Again
- Rock & Republic Saturate Eye Color in Veil
- Maybelline Line Stiletto (not sure what I used for my lower lashline though)
- Make Up For Ever Smoky Lash Mascara
- Revlon Fantasy Lengths Lashes in Flirty

Used very few eyeshadows for this look as I usually do LOL.. it just takes more time to blend out :) The eyeshadow that Chomsiri sent me is more navy in person.. it's a gorgeous deep navy blue with tons of blue sparkles.. Too bad it didn't capture on camera as well!

Here's me and the boyfriend.. this is the only picture he had his eyes open for and I didn't realize he tilted his head back! DARN YOU..
Hung out with my nephew and played games with him for most of the night. He's 4 now and he's so cute because he can talk but the fact is... when he talks he sounds like a little girl ^_^ hahahaha! xD He also kept shooting me the entire time I was taking this picture with the nerf gun we got him for his birthday.. oh, and he's a christmas baby!

I'm gonna round up all the awards I got tonight and will post them tomorrow.. I'm lucky that most of them are really simple! LOL :)

SIMPLE FOTD'S + RANDOM STUFF

Hello world! I've been going simple on the makeup lately :) Just haven't found any urges to wear BRIGHT makeup ^_^

Here's a simple one I wore this one day.. I'm not sure what I'm wearing though but I thought I'd post it :) I'm almost sure that it's the MAC Devil May Care (or was it dare) palette that came out this year during the holiday! :D I really love that palette and wish that it had bigger shadows like the '08 palettes! Oh well.. I'm also wearing my geo angel blue lenses! ^_^
Really awkward smile.. ahh! I had trouble taking pictures that day because of the lighting and my smile was not working right hahaha!

A lot of you girls asked about the victoria's secret eyeshadow that katelyn sent me and so I tested it out in this look! I only used like a dab or two (not swirl) on each eye and it came out super pigmented.. it's going to last me a LONG time! haha, and the pots are huge! Definitely worth the money if you get one :)
Rockin' ruby-ish lips with my on display lipglass :) I layered it on some more later because it wasn't dark enough haha! It is FOR SURE not an everyday color for me!
Here's a close up, I used family silver mineralized eyeshadow with this look, I will use it WET next time because it didn't give me the intensity I wanted :(

I stopped by ulta today to pick up the photoready foundation (revlon, maybelline, loreal, almay is having a buy 2 get 2 free right now) but they didn't have it so I was like whatever! I did pick up the loreal lineur intense for $4.99! Super cheap.. so it was buy 2 get 2 free :) I used to use this when I was a sophomore, which was wayyy before I was interested in makeup and I remembered how much I loved it! I know a lot of youtuber/bloggers use this now but I'm not using it for the hype, I used to use it all the time years ago! :D

Okay, back to photoready, ulta didn't have it so I dropped by CVS after and they had it for buy 1 get 1 free so I grabbed two in golden beige! ^_^ Okay, I bought this because I saw a blog post on someone's blog and then fafinette posted a review about it and she's the same mac color so that's why I just picked up two of the same shade :P I will test it out tomorrow and hopefully a review later? IDK, we'll see!
Here's a shade comparison. (left to right: MAC studio fix fluid NC35, Revlon Photoready 008 Golden beige, Revlon Colorstay 350 Rich Tan, MAC studio fix fluid NC40) All of them have the same amount of product in it which is 1 fluid ounce :D

Now random stuff I wanted to share..
Cleaning out under my bed last week and ZOMG.. there was this huge ass dust bunny under my bed! First I was like WTF IS THAT?!! A MOUSE?!?! So I grabbed a flash light and thank goodness that it was just gross yucky thing.. that doesn't move! hahaha... can you tell that I don't clean under there very often? I'm gonna have to try to clean more often... xD

This is CAThy
She is a homeless cat that found her way to my boyfriend's store.. She likes to talk to you and wants to be petted, but I refuse to pet her because she might have all sorts of yucky stuff on her! *YUCK* But ocassionally I will pet her on the head haha! Man she is FAT! xD

OH! And we can't forget jack, he's the doggy that fell in the snow on christmas eve :) I didn't get a picture of it or video, but we got one of him running out of the snow haha! Well I bought him a new toy for christmas and he didn't not let go of that thing!
Look at him! haha, he looks like a teddy bear :) He lovesss that thing, still hasn't let go of it -___-" I didn't think he would love it that much! :X

And here's all the presents that I wrapped! :) Some were covered up but whatever! I got them wrapped up in one nigh so I'm pretty proud of myself ^_^
Forgot to take one of the tree at my sister's house though.. GRR!

So I placed an order at sephora Tuesday at work.. I was about to buy something at ulta online which was $53+tax but I hesitated and changed my mind.. I'm so glad I did! OMG, I would totally rather spend the same amount at Sephora because I have stupid coupons for ulta! haha, I will go to ulta every other day just to save like $3.50-$5.00 a day :) EFF YOU FREE SHIPPING WITH $50 PURCHASE!!! Oh, and I got my 500 point perk too at sephora so booyah! :D Can't wait for my nail polishes ^_^ ... although those colors are not too interesting to me but maybe I'll love them? :)

I'm planning on blowing the rest of my christmas money on toofaced.com on those stupid ass teddy bear hair brushes they have! OMG, those things are so SOFT! But shit for $65?!?! You're fuckin` kidding me! I also want the walk of shame set thing.. because it has TFSI and totally nude lipstick in there! :) I will use that luckybreaks code which is 30% off your purchase so the total won't be super crazy.. I'm still debating on the brushes, but I've been wanting them ever since May 2008.. Yeah, it's been that long LOL...

Other news, I got a nail in my front passenger tire and I have no clue how long it was there! :( I had to spend $240 to get two new front tires :/? So much money.. and I replaced both because after I experienced snow I realized that my tires are BALD and NEED to be replaced so I am going to replace my rear tires in the next month or two?.. farewell makeup purchases for a while.. haha!

SOME MORE ROCK&REPUBLIC

Hope everyone is having a great christmas day! As for me, it's pretty much over when I woke up today lol because we opened up gifts last night ^_^ I don't really ask for anything for christmas so when I open presents it's pretty much a surprise to me LOL :) As for things on my wishlist, I will buy those on my own with my money or maybe drjon817 will get some for me xD

I also posted a few more things up in my blogsale, there's a link above this post to my blogsale blog so just click that if you want to see what I posted up :)

Okay so as for the post.. I bought a few more things off of hautelook during their rock&republic sale :) I am pretty much done buying R&R stuff unless I feel an urge to "collect" all of their blushes and in that case, it'd be during the hautelook sales lol xD

This time I got a lipgloss (vacant), eyeshadow (veil), and a blush(call me).

They're so pretty! ^_^

I am very happy with the colors that came this time, I had to do my research online first and look at swatches. I really wanted a matte highlight color so I got veil. I'm really loving it, I have used it everyday when I do my makeup ^_^

swatches! :) lipgloss is very muted and neutral which was why I bought it :P It's not as pigmented as the other ones I got but I mean it's still pretty pigmented compared other lipglosses!

A lot of the sites I went to said the R&R call me blush looks like NARS orgasm so I decided to compare for you!

In the pan it doesn't look as if they'd be the same but when you swatch it it's virtually the same shade! :) NARS has more "chunkier" shimmers but it's still very fine. The R&R blush has very subtle small shimmers that just gives your skin a beautiful sheen! :D I love it...

Well that's it! And don't forget, check out my blogsale if you're interested! It's actually a couple of limited edition things lol. I don't want to return it because when you return things they have to throw it away! It's so sad.. I rather try to post it up here and get less of my money back then see a perfectly unused product get thrown in the trash! *sigh* all that wasted makeup.. LOL XD

Hope everyone had a great holiday! ^_^
