LOL, I totally did! And when I went in to MAC, the makeup artists thought I had just been made over at MAC - they couldn't believe I came in looking so well put-together! They told me my blending was flawless. It totally made my day lol, even though it was just a pretty natural, spring-time look. Nothing too crazy! Here's my look from today:lol Jen~You had fun! I can't wait to see your goodies and please take pics of your disco ball lips! I soooo want to see that!
oh wow! you look stunning! i see why they complimented you! the lips are wonderful!!Here's what I used:
FACE: Studio Fix Foundation in NW20 mixed with Strobe Liquid, Benefit Boing 1 and Erase Paste, MSFN Light
EYES: TFSI, MAC Hey (lid), Bronze (crease) and Vanilla (highlight), Pearlglide liner in Lord It Up (smudged along lashline), Fluidline in Dipdown, Feline Kohl to tightline (they sent me a new one, ladies! lol), Revlon Grow Luscious Waterproof Mascara
CHEEKS: Might Aphrodite Blush, By Candlelight MSF as a highlight
LIPS: Dervish to line, Ultra Darling Sheen Supreme l/s, Chanel Aqualumiere Gloss in Candy Glow
I'll get a haul post and pictures up tomorrow, and maybe another FOTD with my new goodies I don't think I can do disco ball lips tomorrow because I have work, but maybe Thursday Yay for having a little bit more time in the morning for March Break! lol
Thanks Debi! Because I harbour a secret desire to become a makeup artist, I always love those moments! I love the Sheen Supremes, too - I have another 2 on my list, but they'll have to wait! At least they're perm I did take pics of my haul this morning and some swatches, but I can't upload them to my computer until this evening because Jerome has the connector cord, so I'm going to keep you in suspense!Wow, Jen! You look fabulous and your face is flawless! Congrats on the compliments by the MAC people! I know how good that feels. I went into a Sephora and they asked me about my eyes and what line I used. I felt sort of bad telling them it was MAC and they asked if I had just had a makeover done. When I told them I had done it myself they were surprised. I was on cloud 9 for the rest of the evening! Don't you love those Sheen Supremes? I went nutty and bought just about every single one, except the two darkest colours. Looking forward to the Disco Lip Look!
I am pathetic. We received an automated call from UPS stating that a package would be delivered here by 10:30am and we have to sign for it. I'm kind of guessing it is my Coach goodies. (Yeah, while I was buying the bag I threw in 2 more bangles). So I am up super early, yawning since I did not go to bed until after midnight, got dressed, open the shades, waiting for the delivery guy, who is probably at a Dunkin Donuts or Friendlies, eating his breakfast and no plans on coming for hours. I'm such a dork.
I am hoping the tarot sales get back into gear today. This happened to everyone. The minute things happened in Japan all sales came to a standstill. Either everyone is in shock, sending in their extra money to Red Cross, etc. (which would be a super good thing) or waiting for a meltdown is beyond me.
Rain today and I hope it gets rid of the last of the snow. That would be fantastic! The buds on my lilacs are starting to green up and I need to check our pussy willows. I am so ready for warm weather! I am celebrating the hope of spring with mint green nails. Sort of a Frankenstein goes pastel look.
Got my camera 3 years ago and I was crazy buying lenses but I haven't had time to play with it. I'm not thinking of an upgrade because I'm happy with it and I'm not a professional photographer. I'll spend the money elsewhere like cosmetics and handbags!Love Sandy! He is so cute!!! What a great camera you have, too. Nice crisp picture. Mine is an antique with only 3.2 mp. I have to get a smaller new one that I can carry in my purse. I keep this one for the 30x zoom I can get for my wildlife photos.
My Coach order arrived and thank goodness hubby was home to sign for it. I fell back to sleep as I got up far too early and ended up sleeping for 2 1/2 hours. I still need a nap! It is rainy here too, so hard to get moving or enthusiastic about anything besides books and naps! But....here we go! I love my new bag! This one is fancier and smaller, and will be used for more formal things. I fell in love with it at the store the other night when I bought my other pink bag and found out it is a LE and that they are running out. And I picked up a few more of the thin bangles because I love layering them and they are also running out of them.
oh wow! the bag is stunning!!! so classy and the style is wonderful! i am not sure that milkweed will keep me away! and i love your new bangles too! i am so jealous! your coach collection must be huge now!! do you have any of the wallets? i have a cute coach wallet that holds my coins and cards but now i use my LV one for the most part. and the wristlets are great too! i have a gold leather one and a patent grey leather one which are great for nights out!I think foundation is the one makeup I dread buying most of all. It is so hard to find a matching colour, a nice texture, good coverage and finish, not too oily, not to heavy, and then you have to smear it all over your face and pray it does not break you out! I still love my Estee Lauder Lucidity in Pale Ivory. Probably time to get some too.

Jen~Cool that you want to be a makeup artist! Are you thinking the modeling industry, working for MAC or theatre or something?
Miss QQ~What country do you live in? I've been watching this whole event unfolding with the tv going most of the day and tuned to news. It is so heartwrenching to see what the people of Japan are going through. It seems like one disaster after another hits the, still aftershocks and separate earthquakes, all so sad. I pray that they can get the plant under control and get back to searching and cleaning up. I still think there are some live people in homes that have not been destroyed but cannot get out of either. So much loss of life.

So...what could this be???
Hmmm....let's open it up and see!!! Rip, tear, rip, tear....giggle....Oooooo
I love it! It has a pretty soft blue lining inside and I am surrounding my house with milkweed so Lou won't sneak up and steal it from me. It would go good with her blue eyes.....
yeah generally i do my shopping online! however on the rare times when i do visit a mac store the mua's have always been so helpful and lovely! i am hoping that the Chanel lady tomorrow will be nice and not make me feel like i am pestering! it will be my first time buying Chanel so i am excited. as long as the colour matches me i think i shall buy that foundation. i will still use my revlon one on days where i need more coverage though!Lou~I know what you mean. The ladies at the cosmetic counters at departments stores are so sour. They used to be friendly, nice and very helpful back in the day (the 80's, early 90's) but now they seem older and act really stuck up and rude. I try to avoid them and just grab my stuff and get rung up. MAC and Sephora is so much nicer and best of all is ordering online when you are certain of a product or colour (and sometimes when you are not and just want to play!!) and don't have to deal with the grouches at all!
I love my bag! Sooo much. Each one has its own unique personality and use. So, beside the bangle mania, I have 4 bags; brown, lavender, pink and grey, 2 coin purses...pink heart and purple patent leather, a few skinnies and 2 wallets; one bone and one pink. And two wristlets, in a taupe colour and pink. Yeah, I am cleaning up! Just sold 65.00 worth of decks and possibly another 100.00. If these go and a few more groups I can start pulling out some expensive and highly desired ones again. And if they sell...we all know what that means.
Hey..how does everyone store their lipsticks? I have a bunch on that spinner thing, but i have a bunch more, plus my Sheen Supremes and a million glosses I need to organize. Help!
lol! well i then put my tubs in my make up cabinet on the bottom shelf. i am not sure what i will do when this gets filled up! cry perhaps?! and lol at the teenage gurus! so true though! although xsparkage is my favourite person to watch! she does amazing bright looks that i simply adore!Okay,. smartypants! I got them all in their various tubbies, but now they don't fit in the drawer! Now what do I do? And who got me so addicted to MU?? Darn teenage guru YouTubers. lol
Just sold another 65.00 box and people seem to be coming out of the woodwork. Maybe I should not even try to sell at the beginning of the week. It just seems pointless....
lol! yes perhaps i shouldn't have mentioned that then! hee hee! perhaps if i wasn't already ahead of target i would have!Jen--gorgeous look. you do have great blending skills, wish I could say the same of myself..
When you get "No Waiting Katy" n/p post some pics, I looked at some google images and some were hard to tell the true color and look.
Debi-- super GORGEOUS BAG and bracelets.
Yay for selling more.
MissQQ--Love those Tiffany earrings, of course I love anything tiffany
Kittykit--your little Sandy is just adorable. He looks so happy and playful.
Lou, Honey don't you know that when you are in the business of selling and a guy tells you that you have beautiful eyes you should NEVER EVER under any circumstance say anything that sounds like the word husband, boyfriend or partner in any way, shape or form. You simply smile and thank him, pretend to blush and twirl your hair like a school girl while batting your lashes and then crank up that charm dial full blast. Then you'll have him just where you want him; ready to purchase pretty much anything you suggest Seriously it works. If later he should ask you out you (of course after the sell and he has paid) just say Oh how sweet of you but didn't I mention I was married? I'm so sorry.
