What are you wearing today?

[sambibabe]

Hahahaha.. I stayed away from Specktra and you know, my ears have been itchy for some reason - now I know! I just wanted to see if my MAC addiction goes away, if I stayed away from Specktra, but I realised it has nothing to do with Specktra - it has everything to do WITH ME!! I missed you guys! Plus MrsMay knows where I hide, so unless I totally disconnect myself from the internet, I can't ruuuuuun!!

I could only stay away from Specktra for 7 days.. how do others do it?

My favorite MUA (whom I haven't seen since Jan) taught me some cool colour combo, so I have been wearing that all week! Just experimenting and playing with some flat colours, that I am not really familiar with.

Keep in mind I'm incredibly picky with lipsticks and I tend to like Lustre in MAC..

lol.. I said I only put the lippy slightly (it is too creamy) and put a gloss on top and it lasts all day for me. I put Steppin out on top of that lipstick and gosh, hawt!!

 

[MrsMay]

Nat's back!

No makeup yet, I'm still in bed

Sorry babe, I'm not wearing any makeup at all today cos I'm supposed to be writing my uni assignment (which was due on Friday) and as you can see I'm getting lots of it done lol...

*cough* did you see the news from iheartmakeup in the early buzz thread?? more super bright e/s and some pigments in fall.... I'm gonna die! Plus three quads in the CoC follower...

I'm the same, Jen. I hear ya! I have an assignment due next Friday as well. But my excuse is that it's not terribly ergonomic trying to type lying down with the laptop on me. Eeek! Not happening.

 

[rockin26]

Welcome back Nat!! Sometimes I'm off Specktra for a few days but it usually means I'm really busy at work.

Today I did my first photo shoot! Although I can't really brag it was 2 models and I only had to do natural looks on them. But it was good to do makeup in the real world and work under some pressure. I couldn't really be bothered doing much on myself seeing as I was working on others so just popped on some Lovely Lilly p/g, Shale e/s & Circa Plum p/g then just some Lollipop Loving l/s (I have a back up of this on the way).

No problem!

Grrr.. I told myself I won't buy anything after HK and I am still here obsessing about every freakin collections!

 

[rockin26]

I was only going to get 2 things from each collection but I really want to check out Et Tu Bouquet & Silverthorn (is it reeeealy that good?). I just called my MAC counter and they've confirmed they have RR so I'll pop in after work today and have a look see. Thanks goodness Style Warriors isn't really doing it for me.

Yay for the great weather Robyn! I am planning to sit out in the sun and drink my coffee

Silverthorn is pretty. I love it how it is 'soft silver', not usual cool silver, which is more wearable for everyday look. I think it'd be a good addition to your bridal palette?
