LAS EFFING VEGAS!

I had so much fun!
But at first it sucked. 3 hr drive to airport, because it's cheaper to fly out from the states but we had to take 2 planes and neither were window seats and neither had TVS!
NO TVS!! WHAT THE EFF YO! ? !
3 hrs of sitting there. In the dark. With strangers. Almost enough to make you go all murdery on that shit. I take that back, now I'm probably banned from all airlines. Next time I go somewhere, some funktastic alarm is gonna be blaring when they see my passport.

CANDIAN. EATS MAPLE SYRUP. ARREST THAT BITCH. SHE HAS ATTACK MOOSE ON SPEED DIAL. BACK IN HER IGLOO.

They even made me put my Urban Decay finishing spray back in the car because it was 13 ml over the limit. I bought that FOR the wedding. Shitshitshit. I probably even used 13ml but whatev's, those be the rules. For some reason I though 100ml was a lot bigger.

We got there uber late, 11pm so it kinda sucked paying for the room that night when we barely had a day there. Then we walked around trying to find something to drink and eat. You can basically go somewhere to drink, but if you wanna eat you have to get fast food. eff that noize. We ordered room service.

MGM Grand room service food btw is AMAZING! Turkey Bruschetta sammich = heaven. For real. I ordered it again for breakfast Sunday morning. Yes I was hungover, but it didn't make it any less amazing. The chili kicks some major nomz ass as well. $7 and you get a nice size bowl with cheese and a bowl with 3 different kinds of corn bread buns and a tortilla cracker thingy.
NICE!

M&M's store rocks my candy socks.

Got lots of hooker cards. They hand them out like candy. But I won't put these in my mouth.

Saw the water show thingy at the one hotel. I'll show pictures, can't remember what it was called.

The Paris hotel is so cool! It's like walking in a little village with townhomes all over on the inside!

Then came my cousin's wedding day. I'm so proud, I got her eyeshadow done in like 10 minutes. Smokey-eye ACCOMPLISHED! We had to rushrushrush the limo was going to be there any minute and she was getting her hair curled and I was doing the makeup at the same time. It was fun and hectic and in the end, we drank our asses off to celebrate.

Enough blabbity blab. PICS!


Water that resembles a fetus complete with umbilical cord...to the face I guess...



M&MS!



Water!



Ummm, what else...

RICH PEOPLE SHIT!



Playing with my "miniatures" setting






The same makeup I did for my "mermaid" post but I used AL Unicorn for browbone and Fyrinnae Rapunzel Wore Extensions was thrown on the inner corner for extra awesomeness.



I wanna go again!!!

Yellow with awesome

Hullo joe

Here's a look I did before I went on holidays that I really, really liked. Really. YUP. It reminds me of dandelions. Pretteh!

The problem? I don't totally remember what I used. Just that is was mostly Aromaleigh.

So I guess this one is just mostly yellow inspiration if anyone needs some :)

I used AL Celinette for the lid and MAC Blackline liner. The green was Aromaleigh as well, possibly Divine Intervention.






Also, I'll do the whole "sit down, write out names, pick a weiner" thing this weekend.

Next post, VEGAS PICS!! WOOOOT!

Winner will be chosen when I'm back home and not yoinking interwebs from ze hotel in LAS FREAKIN VEGAS!! W000T!

MAC Viva Glam Gaga Lipglass and Schemer Leopard Luxe Lipglass

LIP SWATCHES YO!

Okie dokie, so this morning when I posted my anger face I realized it wasn't 100% accurate. I had used a lipstick under neath to be more pink.
MORE LATA

Anywhosies, I don't buy MAC that often anymore unless it's a lip product or blush and even then, I mostly only get some limited editions. There are permanent stock I want but I can't afford too much at a time unlike online mineral makeup shopping (IT'S JUST SO EASY TO GET CARRIED AWAY!!)
Nevermind the anger shopping post... I HAD TO GO NUTS or I woulda had to smack a bitch.

So what was my point again? Ah screw it, I forgot. So here's what I bought on my last paycheque, just 2 itty bitty lipglasses.
Viva Glam Gaga and Schemer from the Leopard Luxe collection. The Gaga one was a total impulse buy. I do want the lipstick still but I heard the gloss is more limited than the lipstick, so I saw it and had to get it.
I guess Schemer was an impulse buy as well. I had wanted the Leopard Luxe quad but realized I really only wanted it for the 2 lighter colours and it wasn't worth it so I passed.

Mark that down in history.

I saw something I originally wanted...and PASSED! I must be ill.

Getting home and plopping these babies in with their cousins I realized Schemer looks so damn close to Gold Dust from the Amber Spring Color Forecast!!

WT EFF!

Gold Dust is a bit more orange but look!

dammit.
If I knew they were THATCLOSE I would have grabbed either Best of Breed or Jealous. Growl. It's a damn good thing I love gold.
growl again.

On my mouth!


SPARKLE CLOSEUP! Hah! Looks weird.


Annnnnnd, oh yeah the Gaga gloss

Here be it



PINK WITH AWESOME!

And here it is again



It does that annoying settling in the lines thing.

So the pic from this morning was it on top of Bubblegum from the pink Spring colour forecast line





Gotta go before the dude gives away my pizza

Gaga Lipglass

Super quick, gotta leave in 5 mins.

Okay, other than looking like a total bitchzilla check out my new Lady Gaga lipglass!



I'll show more pics after work. First impression? I effing love it.

word.

Me kissing a polar bear.

I fed him babies.

I Apologize For Being Lame Again, Post

HI!

This is an I'm sorry for not updating very often, post. I come home from work and don't even turn on the tv anymore because I'd rather check out teh bloggy blogs and email and then by the time I'm done all that the mister is home and I have to be sociable. Lame, I know.

Also I have 2 new books to read that were lent to me by 2 awesome peoples from work so I would feel like a jerk not finishing them before I go on my mini vacation in 8 days. So in case you were like "WHERE IS THAT DAMN WOMAN SHOWING SOME SPARKLIES?!?"

She be readin' yo.

I still have 2 companies to review, and 2 palettes to get meh swatch on, and a part deux sniffy description post for my most recent OHWTO order so I has lots to do. Just no time to do it!

THEN GET TIME WOMAN!

STOP IT VOICE IN MY HEAD OR I'LL POKE YOU WITH A PENCIL

*and sweet, post 200 was the last one. ROCK ON! Or off. Whichever you prefer.

This needs something makeup-related.

Here, you can oogle my very first Fyrinnae order from June '09.


OoOo so pretty

See, I can never order just 3 or 4 things at a time, noooo. I WANT IT ALL!!

And this is why I'm broke...

But not lacking in teh sparklies :)

HOVERCAT OUT!

Rock A Betty Beauty

Since I'm poor as a mofo I was window shopping through Etsy when I came across Rock A Betty Beauty.

The awesome banner alone sucked me in.

They had a blogger review kit that I purchased for $3.75 and in it came 5 eyeshadow samples (Lid Lustres), a sample of their Pinup Glow and a cute business card.

The samples were chosen at random and I received (and their site descriptions):
Foam - A sparkly, shimmery white
Meringue - A soft, shimmery, lemonade
Heavy - A deep, earthy golden with gold glitter.
Petal - A shimmery sweet, cotton candy pink
Smoke - A deep, navy black loaded with rainbow glitter



Going to back to the website, I notice the shop swatches are quite a bit darker than what I actually got. Especially with "Heavy". Going by the shop swatch I would have skipped right past it, but luckily a sample was included in the kit because this was my favourite shade of the bunch!

Here is the site swatch



And here is the actual



But oh wells, that's what samples are for!

On to the colour!

Never having seen this shop before I wasn't sure what to expect but as soon as I started doing up my FOTD I was super impressed!

Here was the look I did

TFSI
Lid main: Heavy
Inner corner: meringue
crease liners: Smoke
Browbone: Foam





And ze FACE!



And on the the swatches!

Top row with primer
Foam, Meringue, Heavy, Petal, Smoke





Pinup Glow powder


Right now all the shadows are on for dirt cheap, $3! Size is .28oz. I'll admit I didn't pay attention to size conversions in school so I assume it's what you'd normally get. Any math whiz out there can inform me otherwise, that would be awesome :)

So get them at the low price while you can, it's just temporary to get rid of old packaging.

Other than my whinyness about the site swatches being a bit off, my only other complaint is with the glitter in Heavy. They are a bit too big and don't stay well, even with my primer. One blow to get rid of the fall out stuff and the glitter flies away. It's still really pretty even without it so I will be getting a full size eventually.

Pros:
Low shipping
Super pigmented
Easy to blend
Not a million and 12 shades (I get overwhelmed with pages and pages of shades)
Awesome buy more, save more deals

Cons:
That pesky glitter in Heavy
Site swatches iffy

When I can afford to, I shall make a real purchase. I see more colours I'd like to own :)
