    Ultraviolet FOTD

    Inspired by Ultraviolet, a film starring Milla Jovovich. It's visually stunning and really cool. I wanted to try out my Matte2 shadow Graphology. While it does give a high color payoff, moreso than other mattes, it's hard to spread. I used a 239, a 219, and a 217 (<for blending). (all MAC...

    Pretty Bottles

    Which perfume has your favorite bottle? I collect perfumes and like to have a variety of different scents and bottles. My faves right now are Angel by Thierry Mugler, in the shooting star bottle. And Britney Spears Curious because I LOVE atomizers on bottles so it looks really beautiful.

    Contouring for the Pale

    So I'm super pale (NC15) and would like to contour my cheekbones. When I went to the MAC counter they recomended Emote blush because it wasn't as "pink" or "peachy" as other blushes. But I thought it had too much payoff and would make me look like I had two dirty stripes of color on my face...

    Law and Order

    I love Law and Order. Any other fans? Maybe being at home all the time is starting to get to me (the satellite TV and I are best friends), but I've been watching it every night for a few hours and it's slightly highly addictive. Especially Law and Order: SVU. The really weird/perverted...

    What do you do with it? It's sooo chunky and I'm having trouble applying enough for it to show up as more than just a highlighter (I want to wear it all over the lid).

    Another Relapse (rant)

    So I went to have blood work done this week to check my clotting factors VIII and vW. Factor VIII is below one percent and vW clotting factor is so reduced that it showed up as absent on the test. I've been taking my meds, doing my prophylaxis, taking care of my port-a-cath, going to the...

    How do I say I don't want their help?

    I was at a MAC counter yesterday and the first MA who helped me kept being really pushy and totally ignored my telling her "I don't speak very much Norwegian". And she kept pressing on how great the new quads were (while I could barely understand her). I asked one of the MA's I knew better...
