NYC Makeup Haul! :)

Here we go, again..



 Benefit They're Real! Mascara. (review on this later)
 Tweezerman Tweezers.


 MAC Studio Sculpt SPF 15 Foundation: NW30, swatched on my hand, and then on paper. The on paper swatch, is more true-to-life. It's quite tan in real life. xD



Stila Lip Glaze in Banana: swatched on my hand. A really neutral, shimmery beige. :) I like it.

Thanks for reading!

There's a first time for everything...




What, you thought these were real?

Random EOTD: Princess Jamsine Inspired!

Wow, I really haven't posted in forever! Well, I'm just going to delve right in. Let's go!

For this look I used:

~BH Cosmetics 120 Palette 1st Edition
~Revlon Liquid Eye Liner
~Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eyeliner- Zero
~ Benefit They're Real! Mascara
~Urban Decay Eyeshadow Potion
~Some of my own brushes

I was inspired by this:








and it's not a very good picture, which is upsetting to me because it really is a nice look. If you want the tutorial here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/user/xsparkage#p/c/9D064FCEEA645DA0/4/n0A_EBXlykc
Her name is Leesha, and I highly recomend you watch her videos, or visit her blog, www.xsparkage.com :)

And now onto my interpretation..





Mine's not nearly as good as hers is, but I'd tried! xD Oh well. Can't win 'em all. I do like the way my lips turned though...

This was...
Mary Kay Nourishine Lip Gloss in #TH02- Pink Diamonds. It's just a really pretty medium pink gloss. :)

Well, I hope you liked my little attempt.. It's not very good, but whatever. I'll try some other time. Lol. :)

Thanks for reading!
