You ladies should definitely try it, I loved it I'm doing it again for tomorrow I'm going to wear Ronny Red with the Cherry liner I've been looking for a bright bright red and I'm hoping this is it.

Prettypackages, I'm sure you are beautiful and have absolutely no need to feel any less than that. Every morning I tell myself "you woke up healthy and pretty today" it helps me get thru the day a little better you should try it! Would definitely love to know what you got tho

lol nars loose and pressed powder. UD naked basics. Nars Eurydice. I was looking for a purple to match the spoiled rich quad. It doesn't exist. But I found some nice purples.
nars gift from God set, and a regular sized eye primer.

Thanks for the pep talk ladies. I appreciate it. Just one of those weeks. you know when walk out and your hair, outfit, and etc did not work out how you expected. And you see that immaculately polished and chic woman. Wear everything is perfectly tailored?
It's like how do you do it? It's like am I the only sweating with all of these layers on? Hat messing up my hair? Shirt wrinkled with wear? face breaking out? makeup sweating off? glasses crooked? carrying waaaay too much stuff? tripping over my winter boots? Ok I'm clumsy, I'm probably always going to trip. LOL... But you get what I'm saying. I probably need to take better care of myself, and spend more time getting dressed in the AM.

Definitely understand, and don't worry it happens to all of us even the polish girl has a bad day.

they all sound like great purchases! i have eurydice, and love it, though i don't wear it very often because i find it turns out really dramatic on my eyes!

i think your type of day sounds very familiar...and the description kinda fits my every day to a T! i agree with macaddictnurse's words of wisdom...even that polished lady has some down moments, and who knows if anyone notices our bad days the way we do when we scrutinize ourselves?!

have an excellent birthday! do you have special plans?

Hope it is a special day!!

Last night, I went to my CCO and got the 222. Today, I went to Mac and bought the melon pigment, the 242 brush and another 224. I can't believe I didn't have the Melon pigment before. It's too gorgeous for words. I held off on getting it because I always thought it looked similar to Pink Bronze, but they look nothing alike! I'm starting to really love pigments. I want Vintage Gold pigment and the Gold Metal pigment next, but they are pro.

Medgal (pigment queen), what are your Mac pigment recommendations?

Eurydice did end up being very dramatic on me.
I actually don't really have plans. I've been so absorbed with work since Thanksgiving, I kinda lost my life. A friend of mine told me I need to quit. I'm wondering how realistic that is. It's been hell. Plus the sinus/sick thing I have is coming back, didn't really go away.
If I do anything, I might go to this concert, (alone or with my Mom is that lame? LOL) and then to a club afterwards.
thanks for the kind words ladies. Just a depressed kinda week, so I appreciate them. I'm not even into makeup at the moment.

Medgal=pigment queen! LOVE IT! I might have to check out Melon. I don't use pigments at all though. That's b/c when I finally do my makeup, I'm rushing to do it. I need to change my setup.

Great brush haul! A girl can never have too many brushes! All of the pigments that you referenced are really very nice, and I have all but one of them. Did you check the MAC website for the PRO pigments that you wanted? There are PRO products on the regular site now. I do have several favorites; Aurora (LE), Chocolate Brown (I've contoured w/it), Roasted Chestnut, Naked, Tan, just to name a few. Oh, and Starless Night is a fav for smokey eyes. I only purchased one of the AGs pigments, Black Poodle because I need another pigment like I need a hole in head!

Awwww! I'm so sorry that you had a bad week and you're feeling low

Unless you have a small fortune and another job to go to, quitting doesn't sound like a realistic option. Maybe taking some vacation days to regroup and sort it all out first.


No, it's not lame that you go to a concert w/your Mom---nice quality time could be good for both of you! I hope you have an amazing birthday, and that next week will be better for you at work!!!!
