A little extras :-)

I have been looking everywhere for a great boyfriend blazer and I could not find any that I liked at a good price anywhere. Until finally I decided to check out http://www.cutesygirl.com/ and I found the perfect boyfriend blazer for me at least it is so pretty and girly I just had to have it. I was also, well my hubby and I have been on the hunt for some new shoes for our little boy, since he is just getting bigger by the minute his current shoes are starting to fit a little tight but still fit him good. We also wanted to get him some white shoes since the ones he has now are black, we all need a pair of black and white shoes right..so we finally found the ones we wanted to get him, Jordan Spizike and they are just too cute...

Forever 21 Picks...

I know I havent been updating my blog and I said I was and do the 365 day project, but I found it hard to do when I'm busy all the time and I don't have much time to take pictures other than of my son. So my birthday is coming up on the 29th woo hoo 23 here I come, anyways, I was planning on getting some birthday presents from the new Mac To the beach collection but figured I would go with clothes instead since I am in need of clothes instead of makeup....since I don't want to spend the extra $$ off base paying the €, and on base they don't have much selection of pretty clothes, I went to my old faithful Forever 21, and like always it doesnt dissapoint...below are a few of my picks...enjoy

Hunt for the perfect foundation

I have been on the hunt for the perfect foundation these past few weeks, I have been using Mac's Studio Fix Powder foundation, Mac's Studio Fix fluid foundation and Revlones Colorstay foundation, needless to say I have problems with all three of them. But I will be doing a review on those on a seperate blog post. Right now I have my eye on two foundations that have had extremely good reviews everywhere. One of them is NARS Sheer Glow Foundation, I have heard nothing but great things about this foundation the only I guess downer about that is that it doesn't come with a pump, but it's no biggie I don't really mind. If it provides good coverage and makes my skin look great then the I could really care less for the pump. The second one which is also alot of peoples favorite foundation is the Makeup For Ever HD foundation. Right now I am torn betweent these too and I don't know which one to choose I really want the NARS sheer glow, but MUFE HD is 2 dollars less lol. I am going to do some more reasearch on both of these see what other girls think about them, compare them and watch more review and will go from there, don't be surprise if I end up with the NARS one... :-)


Makeup for Ever HD Foundation $ 40.00



NARS Sheer Glow Foundation $42.00

Still Glamorus cosmetics haul/review

It's been a a few days now since my last post, I've just been super busy and after I get off work I just want to hit the sheets which I can't because I want to spend time with my two boys, anyways, a few weeks ago like about a month ago I orderd some stuff off of stillglamorus.com. They were having a sale for their anniversary I believe were it included free shipping and buy 2 lipsticks and you would get another one free but you had to put in the comment box what color you wanted. It wasn't on all their items that the sale was on it was just on pigments, lipsticks and a few others I believe I can't really remember. I never really ordered before because I thought the shipping fee was too high but when I heard about the sale I took advantage. Well, I was not impressed at all with anything. Starting with the shipment, it took a while, and well that I can understand that because i am overseas but at the same time Mac usually ships my stuff in 2 weeks. So I didn't like the fact that it took forever to finally arrive, i also didn't like that it was all sent to me in an envelope, I didn't find it very convenient for the products I know it wasn't much that i orderd but the few things that I did oreder were pretty packed in the envelope. The free sample which I believe was an eyeshadow was all over the place, I opened the package and everything was covered in the eyeshadow which was a little dissapointing. Now, the products not at all what i was expecting, I don't want to make this long so I'll show you guys the pictures and explain what i don't like....


I do like the packaging on the lipsticks :-)



Like I said I do like the packaging of the lipsticks, but the lipstick itself, not a big fan of. The one on the left is Doll and the one on the right is Naked which is their best selling one. I don't like either one, Doll looks to shimmery to me and Naked is too light. I have not used them at all, just to try them out and that was it. Another thing I didn't like was that I forgot to put the color I wanted on the comment box so i didn't get my free lipstick for buying 2, but I would think they would of still just sent me one on whatever color they thought I would like based on my two choices..but of course not they didn't do that


Now the lip/eye primer (left), i thought it would be a little bigger, but it is very small, I have tried it for both my eyes and lips and I also don't like it, with the eyes it made my eyeshadow crease and the lips I just don't see a point to it, i rather just use my lip conditioner. The only thing I liked about this whole order was the pigment in Single, that i LOVE..I used it for my lid and as a highlight and its just a very pretty color I recommend that one :-)


Lip balm is okay, i won't lie the only reason why I got this lip balm was because on the site it looked more pink what I got was not pink...lol...the blush I've only used twice, its in Bubblegum, and that I don't like or dislike, its a pretty color I just prefer to use my Azalea Blossom at the moment.

Overall in my opinion i don't recommend these products but thats just my opinion if you guys have them and love them that's fine. They just didn't work for me...

My first Mac palette...

I finally finished my Mac palette and I am so happy, it's defenitly pretty much all neturals, with a few purples maybe like two. I just wanted to make a palette with colors I know I will use and not just colors that I think are pretty but in the back of my head I know I probably won't ever wear. There are still a few that I want to get like Black Tied, Carbon not so much because to me its just like any other black, but for some reason Black Tied looks more appealing to me, ever since I saw a post that the beautiful Katrina Lomidze posted and she was wearing Black Tied it just look amazing. I also want to get Patina, Sable and a few others that I cant think of at the moment especially with my little boy right here next to me trying to hit the keys on my keyboard..lol. Anyways, well here is a picture of my completed Mac palette

(Left to Right )
Top Row-Brule, Naked Lunch, Bronze, Mulch, Brown Down
Second Row-Dazzlelight, Amber Lights, Satin Taupe, Cork, Twinks
Third Row- Jest, Woodwinked, Soft Brown, Brun, Sketch
