:(

I can't find my digi cam battery charger!! But I did receive my sephora haul today! Hmm.. now waiting for my Mac and Mark on Avon haul to come in. :( Gosh darn my careless self for misplacing my charger!!

*sigh* at least I'm done with my 6 pg experiment.. now my one 10 pg paper critic, 15 pg research paper, and 10-15 minute speech is left to be finished. Then my finals in a little less than 2 weeks. 

Joy.. happy happy joy joy. 

Till then!

because I can

*sighh* bored at home all day, it was too hot to go outside!!

I hauled almost $200 worth of stuff from Sephora and Mac a few days ago.

:) Reunited with Sarah and Kat!! Ahhhh some much needed GIRL time yup yup~! Will blog about that later.

Scientist from Great Britain speculates that this economic depression is going to last another 10 years. (by the way, this is worst than the great depression, simply because the rate at which we're declining is a lot steeper.. but you know.. I'm not going to get all technical and preachy on you guys)

Sarahhhhh I forgot what I said I was going to future-blog on :( remind me.

I should have spent this weekend productively, but instead I was online looking at clothes because my closet is outdated. I have one 10 page paper and one 15 page paper due in about 2 weeks, two experiment write ups due this week plus a 10 minute speech to give.

hmmm....

:) time to snack!

toots!

WHAAAAAAT? fotd

*gasp*

So, if you've been following my blog (or know me in real life).... you'll know I'm a pretty avid collector of makeup as opposed to the avid makeup USER. It's a SUCKY money consuming hobby that I can't shake off. I still have shit in it's original packaging from like.. 2-3 years ago *ahem.. mac* or stuff I use a few times.. then stop because it's so pretty but it was LE so if I run out, what would I do??

:) Well.. I used my Hello Kitty Lucky Tom palette!!!!!! *shiockkkk*

I know. Woah. So after debating with myself over whether or not I should actually use the palette (good 3 minutes right there), I did it! And I took pictures! The pictures do NOT do the colors justice.. the purple is so much more vibrant (and well blended in) in real life! :( And in the pictures, it looks like there's a darker crease in my right eye but that's only because the sun was shining on my left side, washing the colors out a little!!

the eyes open!


so you can see it better.. washed out i tell you!!


traffic blows. Notice the lighting diff compared to the top? 2 hr drive yo!


me and the not picture happy bubby.


Sorry for the BLAHHHHHSMIC hair, it was one of those days where I showered, left the apartment, let the open window and wind blow dry my hair (i know i know.. bad). =D

In case anyone even wants to know what I used...
(sometimes I get asked what I use for my face.. it changes because I try to use up the crap I buy) In my opinion, if you have fab skin, you can pull off any foundation or TM, cheap or high end. I don't like to use primer on my face either unless it's for like.. an EVENT because if I wear it, I feel like I have too much crap on my face.

Face
MUFE bronzer shade 2
Maybelline Dream Matte Powder in Sand
MUFE concealer
Skinfood Mushroom BB Cream shade 2 (the last bit of it.... sigh)

Eyessss
Mac HK Lucky Tom palette (all colors)
Mac brow crayon in either Spiked or Stud.. forgot which I grabbed that morning
Mac Painterly paint pot
L'Oreal liquid liner.. label/name is rubbed off :(
K-Palette pen liner (lower lash line)

Lips
Mac HK Cute-ster lipstick
Mac Heatherette Bonus Beat lipgloss

that's all for today!

Much love!

Katie

:( ran out of bb cream



Ok, I finally ran out of my Skinfood Mushroom BB Cream that I purchased from Phyllis. BOOOO!!! I actually really liked it more than my Hanskin BB Cream! Ok so I'll do a review on both eventually, be on the look out if you haven't tried them (just my opinions yo!) but when I was about to email Phyllis.. I decided that I wanted to give some other ones a try! Soooo, I went to Titty's blog and she has like.. the most doll-like face I've ever seen with amazing skin.. and she had put up a post of her collection of BB creams and I thought the shade of Liole BB Cream was very suitable for me! I can't say what it's like yet because I just placed an order for it yesterday but hopefully it'll work out! Don't get me wrong, I LOVE skinfood bb cream, but honestly, I don't like the smell OR the price tag.

:( The picture of the product looks kinda small but I'm hoping it's actually decently sized in real life and I'm hoping I like the texture and smell! The packaging is pretty damn cute no? I'm tempted to try Shill's BB Cream as well, as I heard it's a lot more yellow (and it's a Taiwanese BB Cream!), but I'll wait on that!



This by the way, is my HG bath wash from now till the end of time. It's Dove's Cream Oil Body wash and it's Cherry Blossom & Almond scented!! It smells SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO unbelievably good. I've tried Dove's original and cucumber melon one, but this one is by far, THE BEST! My skin feels pretty hydrated afterwords too which is nice. I suggest you girls try this if you like cherry blossoms. It makes me want to take a shower right now!!

New Urban Decay Primer Potion!!

The all time top selling Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion now comes in a new shade!!




It now comes in a shimmery sheer champagne hue to give your eyeshadow that extra OOMPH!! I'd say it's a more liquid-y version of Mac's Bare Study Paint Pot or Stilife Paint. It's the same price as the old primer, $17! I think this is a good move on UD's part, I love using my Mac Bare Study Paint Pot over Painterly Paint Pot just because I love the extra shimmer!!

:) Props to you UD, Props to YOU!

that is all

toots!

Oh happy day!

:) Ah me, what a joyous day it is... err.. week I guess.. kinda not but yea! 

Unfortunately, I haven't been updating my blog much lately.. school has been a bitch and I took the last of my midterms TODAY! YEAYUH! 

So what haven't I been able to talk about?

:) the happy morning when I got to my apartment and discovered 2 packages waiting for me!! One from beautyhabits.com and the other from the wonderful ANGIE!! 

ANGIE'S PACKAGE

Green Tea infused Dark chocolate, UD Shag, NYX charcoal, NYX green tea, NYX herb, OPI Siberian Nights, Biosilk, Sugar lashes, Desert Essence lipbalm!

LEFT TO RIGHT: UD Shag, NYX Charcoal, NYX Green Tea, NYX Herb
I know I know, I suck at swatching, I should've used a base but really they didn't need any anyway!

UMMMM.. needless to say, the chocolate couldn't wait until the photoshoot. :) EHEHEHEHE. It was SOOOOOO GOOD!!!! Thank you so much angie!!! And you're right, I LOVE dark nail polish just as much as I like metallics and pastels! PLUS, purple is my FAV COLOR AND I DON'T HAVE THIS ONE YET!! OMG.. loved Shag and Midnight Cowboy during my past trips to Sephora and you got me the one I wanted the most!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! 

Seriously, what can I say about this girl? TOTALLY relatable, sweet but with my kind of sense of humor ;) which is a good thing! Down to earth but she's got some spunk! GIRL don't talk to ME about being generous, look at the stuff you gave me!!! TOTAL LOVE!!!! :( sorry it took so long to post this up, me is muy busy! 

Beautyhabits package! (tiny, but YESSS!!!)

tokyo milk bon bon lip balm in Sweet Cream, Paul and Joe creamy compact foundation sample, Paul and Joe Protective Fluid Foundation sample

Paul and Joe Creamy Compact Foundation in 30- Clear
Yes I am one light mother effer.

Paul and Joe Protective Fluid Foundation in 3- Clair
I must suck at swatching

Ok, in all honesty, this was not a self planned order!! This package was TOTALLY influenced by P (penpal26)!!!!!! She wrote a post about the tokyo milk lip balms being totally orgasmic so DUH I had to try it! OMG I'm SOOOOOOO glad I did!! They moisturize like no other and don't leave that waxy feeling on my lips like most chapsticks do! We'll see just how well they moisturize because my lips have been suffering a drought season due to the weather so it's like... flakes-ville up in here. I don't have anything to say about the foundation and creamy compact yet, I've only worn the protective fluid once, so stay put on that! I'm gonna order more lipbalms when I get more money, all because of you P!!!! :D Look what you did! 

MY HK HAUL (vday present from MY BUBBY!! EEEEE!!!!)

Reflects blue glitter (GORGEOUS), Lucky Tom palette, Cute-ster ls, Fashion Mews ls
MISSING in pic: New Studio Sculpt Foundation in NC25

Opened!

close up of the CUTE ASS IMPRINT!!! *sigh* i don't want to use them!! 

Once again, I'm retarded, so I didn't use a base but hey, you can still see them!
Left to right: Reflects blue glitter (can't really see it), Creme Royal, Paradisco, Stylin, Lucky Tom

Cute-ster, Fashion Mews

As I mentioned before, my MUA called my cell on Monday night to let me know the HK collection was out EARLY!! Of course I had to post that shit up, it might've been out around you too!! Sadly, when I got there on Tues, Tiffany had just gotten off work so I missed her! Some new dude helped me out, I didn't like him. Too pushy, you know, those people who like.. say you HAVEEEEE to get this and that when obviously, I don't want it? 

I didn't touch the blushes or lipglosses this time. I was really tempted with the lipglosses but I seriously have WAY too many mac lipglasses that I don't use. Shouldn't add to that pile. At least I use some lipsticks... ehehehe some.  OMG, the Lucky Tom palette is sooo pretty!! I really bought it for the purple shade, which at first reminded me of purple haze mixed with stars n rockets.. but then when I swatched them all together, it was SOO much richer in color!! :) Had to have it. Creme Royal is REALLY pretty too! Lucky Tom .. I can't even explain. It's not black black.. but it's not exactly gold.. it's.. mmmmm... I can't explain it. :) Her her her. This was a vday present from my babeeeee!! :) What a sweetie!! (for those who know us, I know!! Amazing yea?!?!?!) :) He was such a trooper.. sitting there and giving me his honest opinion! :D I love him (on most days EHEHEHE!)

mmm.. I went through my cubby and realized I didn't post up anything about my Redhead, blonde, brunette collection! WHAT? I guess that'll come soon........ or not. LOL. 

:) I think I aced my mid-term!! Or at least.. got a high B in it! 

Umm.. I need rainboots. Me and the bubby went to Target to buy me some rainboots but WTH they didn't have my size!! And they only had two styles left (ugly ones)!! We were leaving the shoes section when bubby spotted the shoes for little kids and saw these rainboots in size XL for toddlers and the theme was Cars (the cartoon/whatever). He's all "try these on! don't be picky! I bet they fit you!" Yes.. they fit.. no, I didn't like them. FAGGOT! 

WHEW time flies by.. I'm almost done with this quarter! My 21st bday is coming up!! 

Ok, bubby looks bored, I think I'll let him use my comp for his car forums now. Adieu until next time (whenever THAT is right??) :D

Katie

ps- babe's been farting a lot lately.. i wonder why?
pps- hi bubby! I know you're reading this! :)
