Yay.. Tomorrow is Bonus Time at Macy’s West. Which means.. FREE MAKEUP!!!
I haven’t seen the bonus yet, but they never disappoint. I highly recommend checking out their new Blushwear Cream Stick in Very Blush. I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT… it is long lasting and looks so natural. I just take the stick, swivel it up and take my MAC 188 brush run it across the blush cream a few times and apply to my cheeks. It really gives this healthy natural glow.



I personally never went to an actual cosmetology school. I had more hands on experience on the job. For those of you who are interested in going to school for further development it’s best to always ask questions. Here is a 2 part interview with one of the top teachers at EI in Los Angeles.

I am so glad that Koren is feeling better and is back in action. Here is a great video on his Retail Therapy. Anyone else love retail therapy?
For those of you who don’t have time to go to a MAC Store or just want to order online here is a free shipping code.

GET THE PRO LONG WEAR!!!! OMG.. I still can’t get over how A-mazing they are. I think im “back to macin’” all my stuff for more colors ![]()

I can’t stress enough how much I love the new MAC Starflash shadows. If you love neutrals and want something that will NEVER go out of style. I recommend MAC Starflash.
The past few days have been soo great. I can wake up, put my makeup on and blend with such ease that I have to double check to see if it really is blended in the daylight. The shadows are soo soft and creamy -yes it is a powder!!!
So here is my Eye of the Day. Very Office Friendly
Did you pick up any colors?

I love Clinique.. actually I am a HUGE Fan.. and ever since I found out about their Moisturizer I don’t think i’ll ever stray from it. This Fall the look is MATTE. So bust out with the MATTES and stop the Shine
I love MAC Pro Longwear Lustre!!!
OMG.. so here is the scoop.. I was talking to a friend of mine, also fellow beauty blogger and she convinced me to try these out. And of course you gotta listen to her.. she is knows her MAC. Actually, it didn’t take too much convincing because I got all three for FREE!!!!
I picked up 3 new colors from the Lustretwins launch and I think I am ready to go back.


hi test

I really really love these new MAC Starflash shadows. I picked up most of the natural colors because they are soo soft, velvety, smooth, and UBER easy to blend. I can’t wait to DEPOT them all!!!!
I LOVE MAKEUP!!!!
Today was the first time this whole week where I put on actual makeup. I was sporting the sunblock look (the I don’t give a F*&* look :P) all week cause I enjoyed my sleep time.
Today work went on a field trip to the Race Track . NEENER NEENER..
I lost $2.00 on a Bet and I had YUMMY Funnel Cake!!!
So I decided since I had to get up early to play potential catch up at work.. might as well feel cute

This one gets a whole post of its own…
If you don’t have Feline check out MAC’s Kohl Power .. it is one of the best eyeliners for the waterline. So soft and dark.. definately falls in my top three list.

These shadows are soft like butter and feel like velvet. I love them all. Like I said before, I totally think the naturals, browns and khaki green colors are my favorite. If you don’t have a favorite highlighter.. Test out -Grand Entrance- I think it will make blending a snap. I really like all the colors, the only one I am not gravitating over is Star By Night. It just seems soo dupable. The other colors are definately must haves for a new MAC collector. And if you are a MAC lover I don’t even have to tell you how great they are

I know this isn’t website related, but I was listening to this Obliqsound on my ipod on the plane a few weeks ago and it was really different and exciting. I have The Obliqsound remixes Vol. 2 and it definately something to talk about.
It is an exciting blend of Jazz/Alternative/Electronica . Be their friend on myspace.com to hear so much more!!

I am super excited yet torn about this collection. I love the orange bullets and compacts from Neo-Sci Fi, but I can’t help but wonder if these are the same orange pieces but with extra Flare? I am torn about the Eye Palette because I have most of the shadows, but I want it because of the cute cute cute stones and design on the top. Well I guess when it gets closer I can decide. If you don’t have any of these shadows then I recommend picking this up. It will save you A LOT of TIME and MONEY if you purchase the palette instead individually. NYLON is my ultimate highlighter. These will only be available online and selected stores. Sooooo I highly recommend waiting on Oct 8 on maccosmetics.com to see if it goes live sooner. Use that good ole refresh button to your advantage


1. Applied Too Faced Eyeshadow insurance all over lid
2. Used a wet flat brush (MAC 239) mixed Mehron blue and green and applied to lid

What do you think of my finished look? Would you wear it during the day?
MAC Starflash shadows are AMAZING!! It’s soo darn soft and smooth I wanted to buy them all on the spot. I had to hold back because I wanted to back 2 mac for new shadows. Nordstroms only gives Lipsticks so I have to wait till next week or so to get the new Starflash. Right now I want them all because of how they feel. On my FOR SURE List are:
I love the Autumn fall colors… The texture reminds me of “Phloof” one of my all time FAVES!!!!!!
MY TOP PICS
hey all!!
I don’t know if this is useful to anyone but I thought I would just throw it out there for you

I know a bagillion people have seen this video.. but I had to share it with those who haven’t. It’s the greatest video.. It’s right up there with the otters holding hands :)
Love your animals and they will love you XOXOXO
I went to Stagesupply.com and got two Mehron Palettes and the rest of the Ben Nye Shadows on Monday. I received my Mehron palettes today and they look really cool. Here are two fun teaser pics. I don’t really want to hype it up or talk about it too much cause I only tested it on my hand. But I will definately try it tomorrow.

MAC Cosmetics has Launched Lustre Twins at Nordstroms and MAC Pro. Also, if you are crafty you will see the new shadows on Bloomingdales website. I am not sure if it is ready for purchase though.
One of their nail laquers is a re-promote and I highly recommend that you check out.
I meticulously painted my nails and then I forgot they were wet and I proceeded to eat ice cream.. OMG SMUSHED nails.. lol oh well! But at least I had some Cookie Dough Ice Cream
I just wanted to present to you all my nails with $$$$$ Yes (Silver Foil)
I like it cause it’s just like aluminum foil. It doesn’t have that typical shimmer like other silvers. I painted three coats cause its a newer bottle of polish. This stuff dries very fast, but the time I am done with all 10 fingers I am ready to add the next layer of polish.
