Remember I bought this with the last set of NK HD shadows?....

I decided to play with it today. I have such problems with putting e/s colors together. But I think I nailed it today!!:)

BIG SHOUT OUT to HeavenLei!! She posted in comments on the one NK HD posts all the NK HD e/s' she owned and the coordinating MAC dupes to some. This a dupe to MAC Haunting. It's like fire shut in my bones! I love it so much!

I used the purple and yellow of NYX Team Spirit....

#3034 is in the outer corner and in the crease a bit.... super pigmented, no fall- out, true to color, $1.49.

I need hit my upper lip with some wax soon...such hairy woman(TMI). Lawd. But check out that blending...lol

My birthday is in 7 days(September 23). I'm not excited or nothing. I'll be 32. Just happy if the Good Lord spared me another year because this year has been something else!

I began to think about my best birthdays I ever had last week and really couldn't narrow it down. When I was young( like from what I can remember... age 5-17) my birthday was awesome. I was showered with love,attention, presents, parties...

When was 18-22 and in college on my birthday, my sorors, friends, and family made it the best day!! I got care packages,cards,flowers, mini parties in dorms rooms, My birthday always fell on Fall Midterms so I was in study mode.

23-31 has been alot different...I started have crazy birthdays like spending them alone- my man is not talking to me-I got two preemie babies in the NIC Unit- I'm broke birthdays. They've been forgettable to say the least...

I don't expect anything kinda don't anything. I've had some bad gifts:

-Scratched off lotto tickets

-Clothes that are too big

-Gift Certificates that are like $10 or less

-Grocery Store Gift Cards

The best gifts:

-a car when I was 16

-A Coach signature bag( 2001 when they were the hottest on the block)

-an electric toothbrush

-Cake. I love a cake! Store bought.

My New Fall Scent!!! Kiehls Musk+Kiehls Vanilla...

Tuesday, September 15, 2009

Every season, I like to start off with a new scent...But in the last three years, I haven't financially been able to do so. I just recycle what I have, sometimes buying the lotion instead of the scent because its cheaper or waiting impatiently for a $29.99 box set at Marshalls to go down to $9.99. lol!

I stumbled across an article in O magazine about Kiehls Musk and Kiehls Vanilla being mixed together as a "Love Potion". I wondered what it smelled like since OWNED both scents.

UTTER PERFECTION.

Its a gorgeous, sexy, warm, light scent that has the smells of clean and pure but naughty all at the same time. I think its the dry down that makes the combo work. You have to be patient so that the musk and vanilla bind together. And talk about an all day long lasting scent...no trick to keeping it on. Its there til you bathe.

I've been wearing everyday since. I think I've found my "signature' scent believe it or not. I've never ever had one...but the "love potion" is it.:)

CCO Hustle and Swap: MAC Royal Assests Cool 6...

Posted by Unknown at 4:03 PM

Story:

I owned a MAC MSF in Gold Spill that I had gotten from the CCO in February and it sucked on me. No matter what I did, it looked like splotches of gold dust and glitter on my face.

Fast Forward to 9/11/09...I'm digging thru the makeup "crates" and I find a Ziploc baggy with receipts in it. It has the original receipt of the purchase of Gold Spill too.:)

So Sunday, I went to the CCO and got a $29.75 store credit for the MSF Gold Spill and a MAC Lip Balm I never opened.

I picked up Royal Assets Cool 6 from Holiday 2007( $25.25) with Queen’s Jewel (shimmery, deep purple) and Trophy Pink (bright medium pink). Shadowy Lady (deep brown), Silverwear (silver with pink undertones), Modern Heir (light purple, kind of like Stars ‘n Rockets), and Medallion (courtesy of temptalia)

I don't own any of these colors so I was a steal of the deal and I was soooo happy!

I'm wearing Queen's Jewel and Shadowy Lady....

Quick pic on what I do to my roller set when it gets old...faux hawk...:)
