Good morning! I have a million things to get done this morning, and then I feel like just sitting down and watching Marie Antoinette or something and indulging in her hauls. lol Imagine if MAC came to your home to show you their products.... That would be dangerous. The lipstick I was wearing was MAC Pink Plaid with a bit of MAC Cremesheen Glass in right image. Here is probably a better photo of it hubby took later in the day.

The saga of the mirror continues. When we got home and I pulled out the mirror it was oval and different from the open one at the store. This only has one light setting. It is actually very cute and I like it, but it may not be enough. Doesn't that figure? My husband and I just growled! Grrrrr! Must get some errands run before the snow starts. Up to a foot expected, at least. Then snow showers for the next 4 days, so not sure when we will see the sun again. I need to watch Mama Mia or some movie set in warmer climes! I hope everyone has a lovely day!

Yes that is how I feel, you took the words out of my mouth. They don't look like average teenagers anymore. Next week is Britney. I'm disappointed to hear that.

Hope your toe is hurting less soon.

thank you! my toe is hurting loads less than it was yesterday! so this is good progress! and you may like the britney one for the songs - i thought they did a great job with the songs - but when you realise you're watching a tv show and not just 40 minutes of music video it kinda sucks!

Debi you look lovely once again!

I hope Susanne is doing ok! i haven't seen much of her this week!

work is driving me crazy at the moment. there are barely any customers still! i think it will get better when people have been paid at the end of this week though - or at least it better do!!!

Lou~Glad to hear the toe is getting better. Let's hope it improves each day until you are dancing around the house again! It is so cold and grey here, as we await the storm. Last I heard we could get a foot, plus more snow on Saturday and more on Monday! Yay (not!). I am juggling 3 projects. Organizing makeup, organizing CD's, organizing books. I sold off 125.00 of used books this morning (to vaguely help pay for my MAC addiction).

Other news. Tried to apply liquid eyeliner to my upper eyeline (Stila) for the first time in my life. Messy. The worse thing is that my eye is constantly twitching. Pencils are so much easier and give a softer look that is more "me". But I won't give up. I want to learn to do it and watched a bunch of tutorials. They never have twitchy eyes. And it isn't age because I remember this from when I was 17 years old. Is there something in between pencil and Stila liquid pen that might glide on nicely, but not as wet? I do have that mumbo jumbo set of Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliners coming, but still wondering if there is something else I can work with before trying this again.

the only liquid liner i can get on with is the mac superslick liner and also a l'oreal one. bother have a stiff sponge tip rather than a bush that i find much easier but things take time so keep on at it! and i get twitchy eyes sometimes! only my left one though weirdly!!

Hello!!

I had two 14-hours-days at school yesterday and today - I am just coming back to fashion and makeup right now

I still look forward to new spring clothes and a new Pandora charm to choose.

Hope you are all well.

 

[Susanne]

Oh.... and I need a manicure. In a vampy shade.

I am not just a teacher all time long!!

Just saying.

It sounds like you deserve some pampering. Go get that manicure and the most vampy shade you can find!!

 

[ChelsMarie]

I am so late to this party.

I like pink, senseless, sparkly things!

 

[JennsJewelz]

Debi, you have the most beautiful eyes! I love your prettiness in pink Have you tried using a gel liner like MAC Fluidline? I find it gives a similar look to a liquid liner, but the brush is much easier to control That's how I developed my steady hand and eventually moved onto liquids! I still actually prefer a gel formula most of the time, too

Lou, glad to hear your toe is starting to feel better!

Susanne, welcome back! I need to get a mani soon, too

Off to bed for me... super long day today, super long day tomorrow, then off to Kingston Friday for my long weekend of interviews!! Simultaneously exciting and exhausting

ChelsMarie~Welcome to "they who love glitter" section!

Jen~Thank you for that tip. The liquid was very wet, runny and had a mind all of its own. I won't give up. I plan to sit and play with it, wipe it off. play with it, etc.! But I am expecting those Urban Decay 24/7 pencils set today and will look into gels and the felt tip liners and see how those go. All about experimenting until you find what works best....and looks best!

Lou~I hope you have a fun day that zooms by! How many cats/kitties do you have? We have had 2 cats in the past, none right now, but I just love them!

Our storm hit mostly overnight and is almost done. We have another 8 inches, but it could have been a lot worse. Time to dig out so the UPS man can get through!! I've got to get this house clean today! Busy morning ahead! (Didn't I say that yesterday??)

Have a fun day, everyone!!

I know what you mean. We need to be ourselves, through our dressing, ever so often.

Good luck, Jen. What interviews are those?

Finally, tomorrow is Friday! I'm looking forward to celebrating my birthday with my friends and family this weekend and early next week! I also plan to get a haircut.

 

[ChelsMarie]

I have several felt tip liners that I like. NYX has some new ones that I really like. You can get them in different sizes too. I prefer small precise lines so I have the smallest one. I use it often and have had no issues with it drying out.

I got a new Dazzleglass Creme in the mail last night! It is in the shade Perfectly Unordinary. My husband seen it and said "Why do you need so much glitter on your lips? It looks like a disco tube." Then he later told me I already have that color lipgloss. He was referring to my Baby Sparks Dazzleglass. I had to explain to him the important differences between the two. I don't think he heard me lol

 

[ChelsMarie]

Oh and thank you for the warm welcome!

lol! your hubby seems kinda like mine! he always tells me that i have similar colours! i explain that they are different textures and finishes but he just nods and stops listening! doh!

 

[ElvenEyes]

Yes, it is a girl thing. Though my husband does seem to be having fun seeing how many different looks I can get in the course of a week! Today I pulled out Avalanche White and some blues, to go with our neverending snowstorms. While he was out snowblowing the sun actually came out! While he was showering my Sephora and MAC orders arrived. Ah, the wonderful world of Dazzleglass! I am completely hooked! Internationalist went on right away! Now I am drooling over my UD 24/7 pencils. Smooth and maybe a perfect liner for me. Though I do love my trusty NYX jumbos for under eye. Not much else. Incense burning, house cleaning, hubby going insane with work because it is end of month...their busiest time. And now I have to figure out how to arrange all my glosses and lippies. I just want to sleep right now, or eat popcorn and watch a really good movie!!

 

[Miss QQ]

My birthday is on 1st Feb, next Tuesday!
Thanks, Lou! You remember!

I literally feel very light when I walk out of my house this morning! Could be because I didn't bring my coat with me.

 

[JennsJewelz]

Thanks for the well-wishes, ladies! The interviews are all for teaching positions abroad across Asia and Europe, and I'll be going with my sweetie, Jerome!

On the topic of Dazzleglasses, I was accidentally given Phiff! Dazzleglass in my Lightful/Peacocky haul!!! I was sooo excited - it's beautiful, and I don't have to give it back! Yaaaay for full-sized beautiful makeup gifts that normally cost $20.00!!

 

[ElvenEyes]

Early Happy Birthday, Miss QQ! I hope it will be a magical day for you!

Jen~What a wonderful treat! I wish they would accidentally drop in a few goodies in my hauls! Wouldn't it be nice if they gave us samples like Sephora and other cosmetic counters? Oooh...what a lovely thought!! A little lipstick here...a gloss there...a mini blush....a pocket size brush.... Hehehehe.

I just finished watching Memoirs of a Geisha and thought of all of you during the makeup scenes! House dusted, brushes cleaned, took off the mud polish and put on a pale glittering pink by OPI, not far from settling down into bed with a good book and dreaming the night away!
