Nothing new...just a slight bronze eye look and I'm on a trip again

I used a couple of the new MAC shadows I bought the other day and this is the look I came up with...I LOVE the MAC Bronze eye shadow I got which is what I used all over my lid here. I put some MAC Kid eye shadow around the edges to soften the harshness a bit (I love MAC Kid too!). For the inner corner of my eyes I used Cargo's Bronze eye shadow (not as flaterring on me as MAC bronze). And then I

A few more MAC eye shadow purchases

I'm at my parents house for a couple of more days and I've been trying to manage without my makeup brushes. I left all my makeup brushes at my condo.Let me tell you - I can't get around putting on eye shadow using my fingers only. I can sorta slap some powder blush on using my fingers and using foundation with my fingers is a piece of cake.But eye shadow with my fingers? Nope. It's a mess.Have

MAC's Velvet Teddy: A more beige-y nude lipstick

Wow it's almost the end of the week! Is it just me or is time flying by rather quickly?I've been at my parents house all week helping out with my family - that's the only new thing in my life right now. Is anything new with you this week?Oh and it rained all day today. It hardly rains all day...usually after a bit of rain it clears up. I went out for a short walk today and took this picture

Marcelle Satin Matte Mousse Foundation & a headband I want!

I hope you've had a lovely start to your week :)Have you heard of the brand Marcelle? I think it might be sold only in Canada at the moment but I wanted to note that I really like their Satin Matte Mousse Foundation. This is the colour Natural Beige which works with my N30 -35 ish skintone. My skin sucks! I have a lot of redness and during the course of a month, I'll have several zits on my face

MAC Reflects Transparent Teal Glitter

I love glitter. Have you seen the Holiday Sephora ads?! I think the glittery makeup on the models look gorgeous. My version would be much more toned down though unless I'm at a informal party like a Christmas party or New Year's eve party. So I did pick up a couple of MAC's mini pigment/glitter sets from their Mischief Makers collection. One that I'm really loving is MAC Reflects Transparent

Over the knee boots :)

Over the knee boots seem to be in bigger fashion this fall/winter season than in the past -at least to me...but then again I'm often out of the fashion loop :\ I do have quite a number of knee high boots but I did not have a pair that went over the knee.My dream over the knee boot was the Stuart Weitzman boot at Browns for $868 CDN . Oh yes, lovely but over my budget :( Then I remembered these

Remembrance Day

I wanted to make a post today to commemorate all the war veterans - to all those men and women who served in the wars to fight for our freedom.I think all of us have studied at one point or another, the sacrifices that were made to earn the freedom that we have today. My freedom is something I take for granted everyday, but I shouldn't ever forget the price that it came at. Thank you for those

Hey I baked for the first time!

Oh, this is a bit pathetic but I had to share it with you! I baked alone for the first time today! =)Yes it was sooo easy thanks to this Quaker Low Fat Muffin mix. I rarely peruse down the baking aisle in a grocery store but that's where I found myself today. This muffin mix was on sale and I picked up it to glance at the instructions:I had to read the instructions like five times before I

A bargain camera and a bit late but... Halloween pics

Hey! How is your week coming along?! I got a new camera at the mall two days ago...a friend of mine gave me a $100 gift certificate to the mall and I decided to get a decent (but low priced) camera. I settled for the Casio Ex-z280 which was $149.99 at Best Buy. I was mainly concerned about how thin the camera is. As long as it took decent pictures for emails/internet I'm fine with it and this
