This is my place to be as girly as I like and happily know that there are others out there who can relate. I have been slow about updating but I am slowly but surely getting off my arse and trying to update more often ^^

Had to work this morning and used the palette to paint mah face.
Wasn't going for anything extravagant due to not having much time.
Ended up liking the color combo a lot, sadly it didn't show up as bold on cam and I didn't have time to fidget with the settings.
(Also please disregard the fact that my nose is without coverage. During winter it loves to peel and putting foundation on it tends to just make it look worse T_T)
The e/s in the 2nd pic is truer to the color.


I used:

Eyes
Ulta 'Elegance' all over lid
Ulta 'Flirty' around crease
Ulta 'Mystical' in crease
Ulta 'Silk' as a highlight
BareMinerals Liner Shadow in 'Blue Black'
Covergirl Lashblast Mascara in 'Very Black'
WetnWild brow pencil in 'Taupe'

Lips
Ulta gloss in 'Whisper'

Face
Maybelline Age Rewind concealer in 'Light'
Maybelline Age Rewind foundation in 'Porcelain Ivory' (highlight foundation)
Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse foundation in 'Classic Ivory' (contour foundation)
WetnWild All Over Shimmer powder as a shimmer hightlight

After work my boyfriend and I made a trip to WalMart to pick up a limited edition Xbox 360 controller I ordered online and had shipped site to store. <3<3<3<3<3>

While there I decided to look around at lipcolor for a true red.
I have one that I love by Clinique but I want something a little more of a deep pin-up girl red and not so glossy.
NYC just happens to make the perfect one called Retro Red. Prior to purchasing I had looked up a few reviews and heard nothing but good things. The pic isn't the best but I wanted to test it with my skintone


Also picked up a few others. Weren't exactly what I was looking for but very neat colors.

The liners colors seem a bit off. 'Natural' is more of a warm brown and 'Red' is more of a berry color.
Tokyo-a-Pink-Pink isn't shimmery like in the pic, it's a cream.
Cafe is a nice sheer beige/light bronze shimmer.
Cherry Frost is a cute shimmery hot pinkish red, tons of color.
Ruby is a sheer but very sparkly berry red.
Retro Red is a true red with no shimmer.
