I love purple.

You've probably seen this look a million and one times, but I decided to post it anyway because I love purple. It's probably my favorite eye shadow color, and apparently it's very complimentary to brown eyes. So, I apologize if this look is played out... but I still like it. Also, I think this could have came out better. But you know when you're putting on your make up and it's just not working with you that day? Yeah, that's what happened... Oh well, hope you like it. =)

I'm finally doing an EOTD inspired by myself. :) Haha. I actually got up early enough this morning to do my make up for school. It's pretty simple, but the color of the shadow is so gorgeous I think it can stand on it's own. I love smokey eyes too. Hope you like it! =)

Ignore the face & the pink shirt. I just threw it on quickly before I decided what I was going to wear, which was a turquoise hoodie. =) Also, it was one of the only photos the cheek color showed up well in... lol.





It looks kind of uneven to me in this one. =( Oh well...









So I'm a camera whore. =/ Haha. Nah. I just think it helps to have a lot of different views so you can get a good feel for how the make up is applied. I really like this look & I hope you do too. =)

It's like I checked into rehab & Baby you're my disease.

I am totally addicted to Sephora, it's bad. The exclusives you can't find anywhere else, the samples, and the free shipping - it all gets to me. I need to go to shopping rehab. =x Anywhooo... on to the haul. :)

Urban Decay Deluxe Shadow Box:


I have been wanting this for the longest time! I know I'm suuuper late on buying this, but I don't care. =) I've already tried this out, so I know it's amazing. I'm glad I finally got it! I didn't swatch them because I'm sure you already know what they look like... lol. But if you want to see any, let me know. I'll be happy to do them for you.

shu uemura 24K Gold Limited Edition eyelash curler:
How cute is the packaging?!


This curler is AMAZING! Not only is it aesthetically pleasing, I can curl my lashes with two pumps! After using it the first time, I even had to reduce the amount of times I curled because my eyelashes curled too much. That's incredible. I highly recommend this curler to anyone. Even if you miss out on the limited edition one, I'm sure the regular one works just as well.

If you want swatches or reviews on anything, let me know. :)

I know the eyeshadow was coming off a little bit in the corner of my right eye. My eye got irritated and started watering. -_-

My Make Up Collection & Storage. :)

I just started really getting into make up this year, so my collection is relatively small. Some of the make up I had already before I really cared about it (lol), but the majority of it I bought after. There are still a lot of things I need, but I definitely think I have enough to hold me over for a while, haha. Let's get started! (Click on the pictures to enlarge.)

blushes:

I know, I know. My collection is pathetic. But I finally learned the importance of it recently, so I still have a while to go, lol.

foundations & primers:

Before anyone gets grossed out, the Monistat primer has the same main ingredient as most foundation primers, Dimethicone. :)

eye shadows (singles) & pigments:


eye shadows (palettes):


kohl, cream & liquid eye liners:


mascaras:


lip glosses & lip balms:


lip sticks:


some random glitter:


brushes & tools:


& finally, storage:


So yeah. Not much. But it's an on going project. :)
