Sup, everybody!

I'm feeling physically sick from all the stress I've been going through with college apps. Damn, it's tough! I haven't been able to eat all day and I have no energy... feeling so weak and tired. But I wanted to drop by and watch up on all the craziness going on in here

I'm gonna start making my own makeup inspiration board. I've cut out tons of looks from fashion editorials, celeb red carpet makeup, runway makeup. It'll be my little project for fun. May be I'll share the finished product later.

Oooh, and the "MAC party" is tomorrow. I'll tell you all about it on Sunday (cuz I'll be pretty busy all Saturday).

BIMBOS! COME BACK! SRSLY!!!

I wanna see your new fotds, I bet lots of other goodies arrived to you aswell. Its cold here too (And im not used too, huh? I cant get used at all.. I NEED SUNSHINEEE!), and it depresses me
ssad.gif
The worst thing is that when im so tired I sometimes cheer myself with shopping... But girls, I couldnt spend those money now
ssad.gif

I went just to see how cult of cherry looks like, didnt get anything from it. My friend asked to get a powder for her. So.. I bought a bowder for myself too, select sheer in NC20... Got blitz&glitz liner.. Then Alum e/s.... And then, damn, I did buy that 183 kabuki one. I was dreaming about it for so long. But its SO EXPENSIVE here. and so expensive for me
ssad.gif
I just couldnt resist. I feel awful now for buying it
ssad.gif
I decided to give up buying mac or buy very little.. Cause I have all the basics I guess. Make just backups when needed. I gonna buy Ungaro only now, and if I will have money. Damn, I really feel bad for buying 182....

Added: BrokeFromMac: I'm Anita! I dont know your name too, sorry girl. Om happy to hear she's better!!!

ZOMG!
At the MAC party, I bought:
150 brush (my first MAC brush)
graphology, soft brown, folie, fig.1, sketch eyeshadows
and I got my mom a plushglass but I forgot what its called :/

I must tell you... you haven't lived until you've had a guido hustle you for MAC.
"Yo, I gots dis cream color base. You can use dat shit on yo eyes, yo cheeks, yo lips. Gimme fi-teen dollas... wut about twelve dollas?"
He had the gelled back hair, the precise facial hair, waxed brows, and baggy jeans with an oversized shirt, trying to sell me MAC! Oh, it was awesome.

It was like a MAC fleamarket. It was hella cheap but it wasn't fake MAC.

i need a mac party in brasil, asap. i can't stand looking at bright, or pigments or BLUES and PURPLES FOTDs and not being able to buy.

I'm a shoppaholic, I'm a sagittarian, exaggerated... buying one single shadow is so sad for me.

Saadeh, I love graphology. I think I'm in love with MAC's mattes in general!

Mari, if you come to the states, you definitely need to do some major haulage on some MAC pigments. If MAC e/s in Brazil cost nearly $50, I can only imagine how much a full jar of pigment would cost!!!

You're right, Kensie... Don't try to imagine. Pigments and everything cosmetics related will be my priorities when I go to the US. In Europe they're expensive as well, but not as much as here.

And I love mattes. Actually, mattes are perfect do coordinate with other finishes, 'cos they help building dimension. Well, my first MAC was a matte and if I'd have to pic a last one now, it would be a matte.

The only thing I don't like about mattes is that sometimes, if you don't get a good quality shadow, they get chalky and dusty. They are great to add dimension on the crease or outer corner. I actually like taking matte shadows and then layering a shimery shadow on top to give the eye a softer eye than a "BAM FROSTY GLITTER!!!" eye.

I'm just loving mattes all together. Matte eyes, cheeks, lips, foundation.

True, Kensie. Combining matte+shimmery in this order works wonders

And, well, I was talking about MAC's mattes.. I honestly try to avoid this finish from other cheap brands... Chalky and no color payoff... Almost pastel-like even in darker tones. I never tried MUFE, UD, Smashbox stuff because these brands can't be bought here at all.

It's sad, 'cos I'd pay a lot to get this MUFE #92 e/s... I always drool when I watch this purple in FOTDs.

Hey everyone! Just wanted to stop by and say hello!

I have to agree with most of you, this thread is coming to it's doom. LOL jk... No really, it's been so dead!

So, I have this big biology test on Tuesday. I effing hate it. I have to study seven chapters by Tuesday... talk about stressed the f--- out.

I'm getting sick and I'm counting on the days when I get my monthly friend. Talk about a fun ass week ahead of me! hahahah...

BTW, Manish is stressing me out too! You can believe it? hahahahah... Really, it's kinda sickening at the same time. I'm stressing b/c I really want that pallet and Nora makes me wanna get to two glosses! Bad girl Nora! hahah jk... I think I'll pass on the ls and blushes since they're perm.

Ok so.. I have to get something off my chest. My friend has been bugging me lately.
ssad.gif
Maybe it's because it's almost the "time of the month" but I don't, she's been bugging me. So, I've noticed that she kinda mimics what I wear. I don't mind it at all but at the same time it's like she buys the exact same thing + color.

What kinda set me off was she went with me to MAC the other day, bought a foundation, and now she wants to return it... I don't know why it bugs me so much that she wants to return it but it just does for some reason. I think it's because I've been reading the "does mac really hate it when we return things" thread. LOL...

Anyways, a day after she tries the foundation she asks me if she can go back with me to return the foundation b/c she said when she woke up, she had discovered three zits on her face. I don't know why but it irritated the hell out of me. I know she stresses at work so I asked her if she was sure if it was the foundation and she said yeah.. I dont know why it irritates me so much that she wants to return it. hahah...

Maybe it's because she's told me stories on how she returns things at MAC (blushes or eye shadows) but I just feel bad for the MA. The MA and I became pretty close and I just dont want myself to look bad b/c I referred my friend to the MA...

holy shit that was long hahahahha..

What do you guys think? am i over reacting?

patty, i don't know anything about returning, 'cos I only got stuff from actual stores twice. all the other stuff is pretty much non-returnable, 'cos it's from the duty free store.

but, i know a lot about friends that mimic me. i hate that! i have 3 ex-friends to prove that. these 3 people, in different times of my life, started copying me, my style, even the last book i got in the library and it got so annoying i had to say: i'm not your friend anymore.

it's awful to say that to someone and actually mean it, but i was feeling almost in that "single white female" movie, with one of these girls.

tell her to return by herself. idk.. idk how your friendship with her works, but it seems like she's testing you.

Hey Mari!
smiles.gif


I met her at work actually... She's 20 and so am I... She just migrated here I think like 2-3 years ago, so I was her first "friend" her age. Most of our co-workers are in their 30s-40s. She decided to be part-time at work so, now she goes to school where I go as well. We meet up, go out for lunch and stuff...

I did notice though that she was dressing similar to how I was, and because of this, I kinda dress a bit different. LOL... hahaha... Anyways, I don't know I'll feel like a jerk if I'm mean to her. hahah ;/

I kinda feel like reschd. my appointment at MAC on Thursday just so that she doesn't have to come with me, but at the same time I'll feel so guilty!

Sorry about all the stress, Patty.
Overreacting? Maybe... But I don't blame you. I have friend's who can irritate the shit outta me for the smallest reasons. I'd say, just relax and try to figure out why those things are bothering you and if it coulb be related to something deeper... it could surprise you!

Cool, I added myself to the group, but what's the purpose of officially adding yourself to a group? Just wondering if it's added to our profiles or what????

I just wanted to tell Saadeh I'm soooo buying more Pupa baked shadows. I got the blue and the light one (#5) and they are fabulous. YAAAY

And well, I'm very upset about a family situation, I'll try to produce a FOTD, but I'm not sure if it's gonna work considering my awful mood.

Oh, and Anna Sui's Eye Color Accent in 102 is a GORGEOUS teal, very pigmented.

My Anna Sui + PUPA haul is heaven. I got a bunch of other stuff, too. Now, I'm choosing my next Anna Sui and PUPA stuff.

Hi Mari, I'm getting hooked on Pupa too, as if I needed another addiction. I went back and got the bronze-y baked shadow
