It is the single best eye makeup remover I have ever used. I've used it for about 7 years, and it's the only eye makeup remover that has never let me down. I have ventured to other products, but nothing compares. It doesn't burn, it doesn't irritate, and best of all -- it takes EVERYTHING off.<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"> You know sometimes you need to rub your eye so hard that it feels like your eyelashes have fallen off or you've given yourself premature wrinkles from tugging so hard?</span> Not with this! So if you're in the market for a new makeup remover, I suggest this one. I don't know if they give samples, but if they do, ask for one. Let me know if you love/hate this product. What's your favorite eye makeup remover?!</span></div>deannamargarethttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10932695782227381327noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7443003430799372566.post-73728359536362595702009-06-17T21:59:00.002-05:002009-06-17T23:01:23.701-05:00MAC Tag ♥<div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms'; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">My girl, </span></span><a href="http://escourtn3y.blogspot.com"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms'; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">ESCOURTN3Y</span></span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms'; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">, tagged me to do this!

I don't have extremely oily skin, only an oily t-zone, especially in the summer. I don't know how well this would work on someone with really oily skin, but the good thing about MAC is that if you don't like it after a couple uses, you can always return it! </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:'trebuchet ms';font-size:13px;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:'trebuchet ms';font-size:13px;">Yesterday, I went to the bank (and my bank is always so warm inside). I was wearing my SFF and set my makeup with the finishing powder. Well, I was getting really warm, and you know that feeling where you know you must be so shiny and your makeup is melting? Well that's how I felt. When I left the bank, I went to put some blot powder on my nose, and to my surprise, I HAD NO OIL ANYWHERE. I only had a SLIGHT shine to my nose. It was incredible to me. I mean I thought my makeup looked horrible cause I was so hot, but it was all still intact! </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I'M SOLD!</span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:'trebuchet ms';font-size:13px;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:'trebuchet ms';font-size:13px;">This is a new staple to my collection.

I don't have the time to review all my Nars products quite yet. And I can sum up my Beauty Blender Review in 2 words: IT'S LOVE ♥ I wouldn't recommend it for Studio Sculpt as it is a bit thick. Go for your more liquid foundations. The cleaning process is a pain, but it's the same with brushes. I just love the look I get from this, and how fast I get it! It takes me like 2 minutes to apply liquid during the week. And I'm someone who has absolutely no punctuality. As in, being late is practically part of my genetic code. So this thing really saves time before school! =] </span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Okay so leave me with requests</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">And if you want my FOTD/OOTD pics!</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms'; font-size: 13px;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>I think I'M going to wear this outfit/makeup for Mothers Day dinner so maybe I should hold off and have my fiance take better pictures? <br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms'; font-size: 13px;">Hmmm.... maybe =]</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Wish me luck on finals, girls!

Because it's the perfect shade for me, it requires very little blending into my jaw line. I always blend makeup into my neck out of habit, but even if I forgot one morning, with this foundation you would never notice. It's even better than MAC Studio Sculpt for me. Also, my Beauty Blender along with this foundation gives me a great finish! The coverage is just phenomenal for me. It's medium-full and it does the trick! It stays on all day too. I admit, I use the Studio Finish concealer over blemishes, but I really like how this foundation feels. Like I said, RAPIDLY becoming my HG foundation!

Not a cakey, powdery mess! I can barely use any product and get the coverage I want. You guys know me. I have acne scars and need medium-full coverage. You can use it lightly over your liquid foundation or use your 182 (or any kabuki) and wear it by itself. I am really in love! </span></span></div></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_yDxW626AgKo/Sd6j8P8eKyI/AAAAAAAAANk/QCHk4MaIILc/s1600-h/PrescriptivesUPick.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 171px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_yDxW626AgKo/Sd6j8P8eKyI/AAAAAAAAANk/QCHk4MaIILc/s200/PrescriptivesUPick.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322872065066150690" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Prescriptives U-Pick (Large):</span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Buttermilk (top left) Fire (top right)</span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Antique Gold (bottom left) Espresso (bottom right)</span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Brown Sugar Blush (bottom)</span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">4 Eyeshadows and 1 blush of my choice?!

I'm attracted to anything like them! lol Anyways, I picked up 3 shadowcremes in Ivory Lace, Antique Gold, and Golden Apricot. The pigmentation is incredible and they don't crease! I wore Golden Apricot the other day with a gold shadow on top and it looked awesome! They are very creamy and a little bit goes a long way! I also got 2 of the eyeliners in Coffee and Onyx. These take 90 seconds to dry and then they stay on for 15 hours. I have to say these are really awesome. My eyes water a lot so it's hard for me to find something to stay in my waterline. I really like to put the Double Wear in Onyx on and then put some UD 24/7 in Zero on top. It stays and it's more intense.

I was completely clueless! Looking back, it's really pretty funny! I'd say I REALLY got into makeup about 8 months ago. I discovered youtube tutorials and product reviews, and I was hooked! Youtube tutorials really got me where I am, and I've already been offered a job at MAC after the semester is over. We'll see what happens!

I will be done in May and I don't plan on continuing to my bachelor's at the moment. It's hard to go through more school when I have the job security that I do. Again, I'm very lucky to have the opportunity. I am a very good student. School has always been MY THING. I am just burnt out and unmotivated, and I don't think I wanna jump back into school with the mindset that I do. I want to succeed, and I wont if I don't give myself a little bit of a break.</span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" font-weight: bold;font-family:'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">7.

College stress made me break out like never before. And then my fiance joined the Navy so you can imagine that wasn't easy. So now that I'm recovering (still have some scarring) I do use liquid foundation again. There are better options for me now than there were 4 years ago, and I use it almost daily now. So far none of the ones I will be mentioning have caused me to break out. </span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">I also want to add that I don't use drugstore makeup because it makes me break out horribly and it always has. I know that there are great drugstore alternatives (Ex. Revlon Colorstay) that could be just as good and even more affordable! I have really sensitive skin. I apologize for not covering those brands, but I guarantee you there are a ton of lovely ladies out there who have. I always suggest looking at reviews before you buy something.

Here's why! It's long lasting on me. Between this and the Studio Sculpt concealer, my blemishes stay covered all day and night. All I find myself fixing up is my powder on my nose because I can't really find a foundation that stops oil completely lol. But this foundation keeps the shine down a lot longer than normal. This also doesn't feel heavy at all! It's very light but gives me full coverage. Also, it's very blendable and creamy. I really like the texture of it. Overall, I am a big fan of this and bring it absolutely everywhere. I only have to use a little over a dime size amount and this tube should last me a few months, if I use it every day. I do switch up on certain days and have my days where I don't wear liquid foundation at all. This foundation is definitely worth the money to me. It also has not made me break out, which I was surprised considering the new formulation. I have to admit that I was never really crazy about many MAC liquid foundations until this. I have SFF but this foundation is the best ever MAC liquid foundation. Period! </span></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><br /></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><br /></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 220px; height: 220px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_yDxW626AgKo/SdLhR7vimmI/AAAAAAAAAK8/NyxQT-IzOvM/s320/Mk_Chanel_Sp08_Mat+Lumiere+2.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319561808089094754" /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">2. </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">Chanel M</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" font-weight: normal; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">at Lum</span></span></span></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">iere ($54): </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">I find myself really loving this foundation. "Mat" says it all. This foundation keeps my nose from being shiny while I'm wearing it. It is very light, but gives me full coverage as well. This has a lot of qualities as the previous foundation and I hate to repeat. This one and the Studio Sculpt are more of a tie to me. I wear full coverage foundation because I have a lot of scarring. Many of you out there may not even need it, which is where my other foundations will come in handy. I prefer full coverage. There are days where I'm too lazy to apply liquid, and I give my face a rest, but I love wearing Mat Lumiere on my nights out. It's long lasting and evens out my skin tone amazingly. My one pet peeve with foundations is that I apply them and look in the mirror after a night out and see my scars. It drives me mad with regret! Foundations are not cheap so I hate when I've wasted money on something that just doesn't cut it for me. Chanel, however, does the trick. I recommend this for people who have a problem with an oily t-zone. I use my Prep & Prime and then apply this. It is perfect when you're going to have a long day or night. This one also did not make me break out whatsoever! </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><br /></span></span><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 228px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_yDxW626AgKo/SdLxWb2D2HI/AAAAAAAAALk/6AurAcCxCc8/s320/MAKE-UP-FOR-EVER-HD-FOUNDATION.gif" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319579477611894898" /><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">3.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"> Makeup Forever HD </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" font-weight: normal; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">Foundation ($40)</span></span></span></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">: After reading all the reviews about this foundation, I had to try it! And honestly, I love it. It's so light and gives me full coverage! It looks like my skin only better. It doesn't look like I have makeup caked on my face. This one gives me a slight glow and blends in perfectly with my skin. I find that I need more of this to get the coverage I want, but it's buildable. I find this to be more medium coverage with less and full coverage when I add more. It's a fantastic foundation. It's my best friend's HG foundation as well. It really makes the skin look natural. It didn't make me break out. It doesn't take me long to blend it in either, which is nice on those mornings when I'm running late to school! There isn't one thing I hate about this foundation, except maybe the price. But don't we all wish for a great foundation for cheap? lol This foundation is definitely a good one. They have a lot of shades to choose from. It also doesn't feel heavy -- this will probably be the perfect foundation for summer. In winter, I need a bit heavier coverage (Studio Sculpt). In summer, my skin is more normal and I can wear lighter foundation or even just powder. </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><br /></span></span></span></div><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 250px; height: 250px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_yDxW626AgKo/SdLlH3w8lJI/AAAAAAAAALM/_JGydbJifTk/s320/diorskin.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319566033269068946" /><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">4. </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">Diorskin Forever ($44)</span></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">: This was my first liquid foundation after getting off Bare Minerals, and it was awesome. It gave me great coverage! Didn't make me break out and blended okay. I thought this was the best foundation, until I tried others. Once I tried others, I found this to be a bit too heavy for me. But it's still one I go to. I wore this the night of my engagement party and my pictures came out really nice. I was suffering from a stress breakout just planning the thing and this baby did the trick. It covered everything! I actually wear this in the winter because I got the lightest shade possible. And it's super long lasting on me, which is necessary when you have snow and 30 mph winds blowing at you! lol =] So this is good. Not my absolute favorite, but still a good one to check out! It's definitely a full coverage foundation. If that's not what you're looking for, do not spend the money. It's definitely worth checking out though I think. It's always been in my top 5 so far. There are days where I pick it up, but it's just not as often as it used to be because I've found better since. </span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><br /></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_yDxW626AgKo/SdLpNRmvrjI/AAAAAAAAALU/V66JsfgZ_R8/s320/YSL_PerfectTouchFoundation.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319570524151459378" /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">5. </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">YSL Perfe</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" font-weight: normal; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">ct Touch ($55)</span></span></span></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">: I know everyone refers to this as their HG foundation, but I'll tell you why I don't. Yes, it obviously makes my top 5. But this coverage isn't full enough for me. It's very sheer and it doesn't really cover my blemishes. To top it all off, the brush applicator drives me INSANE. I'm considering just ripping it off to be honest. So much product gets wasted. The applicator is nothing like a foundation brush and it doesn't do nearly the same thing, which is what I'm sure it's supposed to do. This will also be a summer foundation for me. In the winter, this just doesn't cut. However, it smells nice and it feels so soft and smooth. Like I said before, I need fuller coverage with all the scarring I still have, and unfortunately, this doesn't really cover any of it. I'm going to use this over the summer though because it feels incredibly light. It blends really nicely too. Doesn't make me break out. If you're more of a light-medium coverage girl, this foundation is for you. If you want full coverage from this, you'll have to apply buttloads of it. With perfect skin, this would be a great foundation. But for me, it just doesn't cover everything I need it to.</span></span></span></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><br /></span></span></span></div><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 280px; height: 280px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_yDxW626AgKo/SdLtYcfUdPI/AAAAAAAAALc/vg2LAqvhS_Q/s320/31cp6kcOuJL._SL500_AA280_.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319575114098177266" /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">6. </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">MAC Studio Fix Fluid ($26)</span></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">: This used to be my #1 foundation, but it has slowly made its way to the bottom of the list. Once Studio Sculpt came out, this foundation fell to the back burner, but with good reason. The plus side to this is that it's very long lasting. I mean this stuff does not budge on me all day. It stays exactly where I put it. It also didn't make me break out, which was surprising for me. BUT it is cakey and heavy. It doesn't take much to get the full coverage you desire, but you can feel this stuff on. It feels like I am wearing a mask. I didn't realize how heavy it was till I tried some of the other foundations. I wear this when I know I wont have a chance to reapply my makeup at all after so many hours of working or going to school. It keeps all my blemishes covered, which as you can probably tell is a big reason why I love the foundations that I do. If I had to get any foundation from MAC though, it would be Studio Sculpt. I will use Studio Fix until I'm done with it, but I don't know if I will re-purchase it. </span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><br /></span></span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><br /></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';">I apologize for the length of this post, but I hope you guys found it helpful!

So my mom and I went shopping yesterday because it was raining. And when it rains in Florida, there is nothing better to do. =] Well I save up money just to come here because I actually have more time to shop and whatnot. My mom and I love getting the chance to shop together!</span></span></span></span><div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">But anyways, I finally bought a new pair of sunglasses for the first time in over 3 years! I've had the same pair of Chanel sunglasses forever. I really love them and I promised myself I wouldn't fork over the money for another pair unless I REALLY loved them. And yesterday, I found them.</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div><div><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_yDxW626AgKo/SdEbOvQxSmI/AAAAAAAAAKs/8xOwov8gFaE/s320/Photo+58.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319062574920190562" /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">They are Chanel and they are a butterfly shape. They have a pearl on each side and they fit perfectly. I can't wear big sunglasses because of the shape of my head so these are beyond perfect for me. I can't wear those HUGE sunglasses that cover my eyebrows because I look like a bug! lol So I jumped all over these and they are completely worth the money to me. Don't mind the pose -- I'm a goof. =] </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Then onto the necklace. </span></span><a href="http://thecurrentcustom.blogspot.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Lorraine</span></span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> showed everyone her Tiffany key necklace on Twitter and it was beautiful. I ♥ keys. To be honest, I haven't been on Tiffany's site out of self restraint. (Seriously, who can resist that beautiful Tiffany blue box?!) BUT these necklaces pulled me in and they're beautiful. You can see I'm wearing it in the picture. It's the larger version of the heart key pendant (2 inches, the other is 1 inch) on an 18 inch chain in sterling silver. </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">They have SO many styles. Different size chains and different pendants ranging from gold to silver to platinum and diamond. The woman in the store said these are going to be a HUGE hit, much like the famous Tiffany hearts. I want to save up and buy more. I may ask for a longer/larger one for my birthday. You can put more than one on a chain. There's so much variety. You can make a necklace that looks like no one else's just because you have so many choices, which is nice. You can customize them to you and your style. It's better than my typical $5 jewelry from my local stores that ends up breaking. It's nice to buy a really good piece of jewelry every now and then. =]</span></span></div></div>deannamargarethttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10932695782227381327noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7443003430799372566.post-85810782051335041022009-03-30T01:44:00.004-05:002009-03-31T02:15:02.752-05:00Sugar Sweet Haul!<div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">This is definitely late, but better than never I guess!

I have a major problem with these though. Mechanically, they suck. I get almost no color at all on the brush (doe foot type). I mean it takes me forever to get some color.

I want to blog as much as I can here because I have so much time compared to at home where school takes over my life!<br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">So here is the rest of my collection.

On the bottom we have NYX glosses, Nars glosses, and MAC glosses. Lip gloss has always been a favorite of mine so the collection has gotten quite large over time. I love Nars and MAC the most. There's an extra lipstick holder at the top too that I'll whip out when I can fill it.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">Drawer #2: Jewelry, Pigments, Paint Pots, Misc.</span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_yDxW626AgKo/SdBnduTzFHI/AAAAAAAAAKc/3TlngT8Blaw/s320/DSC00879.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5318864920269493362" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">So that's my every day jewelry. I know, it's a mess, but honestly, it works. Nothing has ever gotten tangled and I can just grab and go. It's easy for me. On the right we have my paint pots on the bottom. Above that are my pigments and tweezers lol. And above that my Visine for foiling and some other tools!</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">So that's it!

I really had to work at it with my 129 to get it where I wanted it to go. The color though is so lovely! It literally took me 1 or 2 light dabs in the blush to get enough color, which is awesome. I wont need as much so it will last me longer. I like when my money goes a long way. =]</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">2) </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Light Over Dark</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> -- so far this is my favorite. I like browner blushes almost better than the light pink ones. I've had a bit of a hormonal break out so I steer away from pink blushes. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">(TIP: Wearing anything pink/red will make acne stand out more!)</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> So this has been my best friend lately. I reeeeally like this color.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">3) </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Love Rock</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> -- this is the pink I have dreamed of. It is beautiful! Again, haven't been wearing it much cause of my breakouts, but the color is phenomenal. HIGHLY recommend if you like pink blush! This is kind of what HK's Tippy should have been!</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">4)</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> Grand Duo</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> -- again, I love this one. It's a pretty plum color and it looks great on fair skin tones. I used it on my friend (NW15) and it looked great! I actually mixed in a little of the Light Over Dark and she rocked it! I don't think there's any in this collection I wouldn't recommend.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">5) </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Beauty Marked </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">-- this is a new favorite. I'm so fair that it's hard for me to really wear Carbon. I mean I can blend all day, but I can only use VERY little. Otherwise, I look like I got punched in the face. Beauty Marked is a good option for those with fair skin. It is a great crease color and can be pair with a lot of colors. It is much like my other favorite crease color, Sketch. It has a little bit more gold reflects in it, but they don't really show up when you blend it in, which I like. I don't want to look like a disco ball. =]</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">WHY I DIDN'T BUY:</span></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Moon River</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> -- it's a highlighter. I have so many highlighters I just didn't need another. I am so fair and the color just kind of looked like shimmer on my skin. And honestly, because of the oil in my skin, I don't use highlighters everyday. They make me look more shiny by the end of the day.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Earth to Earth</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> -- this was also too light. It basically blended into my skin. It's a lighter version of Light Over Dark. For $22/piece, I just didn't see the need to get this one. This wasn't really anything special to me.</span></span></div>deannamargarethttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10932695782227381327noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7443003430799372566.post-84603146200531741052009-03-18T16:13:00.012-05:002009-03-18T16:52:29.161-05:00My Collection!<div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">*REMINDERS*</span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'lucida grande';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">1.
