just purchased a new supply of jars from my favorite jar pusher, TKB trading

these little gems are square, cute as can be, with choice of tops, black matte, shiny black, gold & silver.

i get all my jars from them, the highest quality (double-walled) and have a good seal.

[red]

I've been really good, not to much shopping, just "a few things"

Mac Pro pigment WHITE, its being discoutinued so I picked up a full. They only had 3 left at the Pro store in NY. (I think the pro pigment White is MUCH nicer than Vanilla, doesn't have that pink in it, and its not so pearly white)

Mac CLEANSE OFF Oil
Great not only to remove makeup, but to clean up make-up mistakes (a drop on a Q-tip does the trick), and most of all to clean your brushes!!!

I asked for 2 sample jars, and they were so nice to give them to me

 

[red]

FLIRT! blush in HEART THROB
sold at Kohl's for $12, with the friends and family discount, it came to something like $10.

Its a Nars Orgasm dupe, has the gold thing in it just like the Orgasm, read it right here on Specktra, thanks ladies

It's really highly pigmented, so need to go easy with the brush, learned the hard way

FLIRT! is part of Estee Lauder brands.

 

[red]

plus at the Estee Lauder Company store, got a Blacktrack fluidline for $10.50

had an orgasm

given I have never seen Blacktrack there

picked up another Mac 272 brush, same place, that was $16.50

i thinkk that's it (for now)

I'll put it here since its indirectly part of my haul. I purchased a Mac Naked piggy, and pressed some into a pan

I used an Urban Decay empty pot

recycling is good my friends

once it was totally dried, I cleaned up the residue.

Is this purple from Prescriptives or Shu Umera? And what is the name of this purple?

Thanks so much!
