1. A friend of mine works for Lufthansa, her latest trip was to Denver and she went to the MAC Store at Cherry Creek Mall for me. And encountered the rudest SA ever!!

2. That's Quarry.
Boo for the rude SA! But yay for the getting the palette :)

Thanks! I don't have Quarry yet, I think I need to add it to my wish list.

I think I have Quarry and have never used it before. Oops... What do you use it for? Transition colour?

I use Quarry for transition all the time. I love it. Today's lip is Revlon Lip Butter in Lollipop. Girrrrlll I just love a fuchsia. I'm also taking the lipstick out of the drawer and putting in a toss bag or a keep basket at the end of the day/week.

I am off work till later today, so I thought I would post this now. Today's lippie is: YSL no. 52 Rouge Pur C... it's pic is on the YSL thread.

This low buy is working well for me.. lol. I had not worn this fabulous colour in 2 years.. totally forgot until someone from another thread mentioned it as being sold out globally.

anyway, I did a plum eye with Chanel duo (Berry) and pink blush from YSL no. 6.. it's simple but with the Coral rose lips works very nicely.

will be back later.. eating lunch and getting on skype!

So the person who bought the bronzer from me still hasn't paid. It's been 2 weeks or so, I've opened a case now. So far no response from her so we'll see. Looks like I'm stuck with this darn bronzer, lol.

I wrote down a wish list for the next couple of months, in my head it didn't seem much, but seeing it all written down was a reality check. I'll have to make some extra money somehow to be able to afford all of those things. Guess I have to put more stuff on ebay. Maybe I can even sell some eyeshadows and then get the Pedro Lourenco quad. I don't wear e/s too often these days, so maybe one quad and some singles will be all I need.
Next month I only want to get one item (probably a blush) from the Proenza collection. Hopefully I can stick to that.

Going to the doctor tomorrow morning for results of some tests I did.

I've had people "buy" and not pay too. It's super frustrating. Good luck with that and with your test results. I hope everything is ok.

Resisted buying NARS' China Seas and Kauai duos a few days ago. I really like the colors, but I cannot justify spending 75 bux right now. I am hoping they would be there in April so I can get 15% off during Chic Week at Sephora.

I felt much better that I am building a cushion of money to be used when necessity strikes. I am concerned about the tax season. I am hoping that I won't get bit badly this season. Got a good tax preparer, so that would work in my favor.
Right now, I am wearing Burberry Lip Velvet in Military Red. In fact, I rotate it with a sheer purple YSL lipstick that I got from an outlet store (the Lancôme company store in Michigan City).

This is a beautiful palette!

Thank you, tiffabutt. And the picture convinced me, that I dont need those warm / cool premade X15s. Which are, btw, as overpriced as the refills and empty palettes here in Germany.

Yep, either as a transition colour for more cool toned looks or as a crease colour for a subtle eye, most likely combined with winged liner in Ash Violet.

Lip of the day and mini reviews

Hopefully I'll be coming across some that can be purged!

Day 1: Estee Lauder Crystal Baby (very pretty but sheer, I like that different liners can go with it and change up the look)
Day 2: Estee Lauder Pure Color Envy in Desirable. (My new favorite l/s and formula, feels like my Tom Ford)
Day 3: B&BW Guilty Peach Tart lip gloss (I love their l/g tubes, they don't dry out my lips like most lip products do and they taste so yummy!)

I wore two today. First was Viva Glam III, my all time favorite. Then I went to CVS and the entire Revlon throwback lipstick stand was full so I bought Snow Peach and after eating, put that on.

How do you like Snow Peach? I picked it up the other day at CVS along with two of the new nude Maybelline l/s and wandered around the store with them. I put it all back and ran back to the car lol!!!

Spikesmom, I do that all the time. Sometimes it just makes you feel good to carry new stuff around for a little bit

I've already messed up because I forgot to put on my planned lippie today. Instead I wore Revlon's Lover's Coral, which had been hanging out in my purse unworn for a while.

I wore Chanel Sari D'Eau first and then Revlon lipbutter in Tuttifrutti today! Tried both out for a look with Chanel Lilium and the lipbutter won!

I really like it! It feels like a semi-matte to me. It was completely gone after eating but that didn't surprise me. I really am thinking about picking up one of the Maybelline nudes. I have a coupon for $2 off a maybelline product so I might use that.
