Suds N Sass blues

Hi!
My mister went in to work today so that meant I could spend allll the time I wanted on my makeup, he wasn't there to rush me :)

I had no actual plan in mind, I just knew I wanted to play with some more Suds N Sass shades. And Piercing Parlor was grey/silver so that was to be the main colour, with my new greys obsession and all :D

The stuff!



I used:
Lid: Piercing Parlor
Crease: Poolside
Slightly above crease and inner corners: Surfs Up
Liner: UD Zero with Tattoo shop patted on top. This shade is super sparkly and is best to treat it like a glitter and use it on top a sticky base.
cheeks: Raspberry Snow Cone
Lips: Avon Classic Nude gloss

It ended up looking more blue in the end but that's okay :)





And shopped for FIERCENESSITY!


Coupon code until July 31st is still: hovercatmittens
for 15% off.

Bye now!

CopyKitteh

While I was still sick in the head I saw a super duper look over at Clever Endeavor and I wanted to copycat it. I didn't get time until yesterday with the whole vacationy stuff, makeup melting off in extreme temps/new makeups to try ooot.

Also, the camera was being a lamewad and only 1 pic didn't turn out blurry. Imma go shove this bitch in the microwave now.

I used:

Lid: Aromaleigh Suspectdevice
Crease: Fyrinnae Bite Me
Browbone: Annabelle Solar
Liner: Joe Fresh felt liner
Lower lash liner: MAC Pearlglide Intense BlackLine







Blurry schmurry.

Also on a side note, I can see the makeup police are trying to pick out what blogs they deem worthy of their viewing pleasure. And that by getting products sent for review, they'll get less than honest results. Seriously?

For one, I blog because I love colours and it's a great way to keep track of the looks I've done and what makeup I've used. Views and comments are a welcome bonus but I won't go cry in a corner without them. At the end of the day, it's for MEH. Selfish? Totally, but it's my blog and it's like a big ol journal with pics and if someone doesn't like what I say in it, oh well, you can't tell me what I can or can't write about and how I write about it. If I wanted to start writing about laying cement, I will. But I won't because I think that's so fucking boring. :)

2, they make it sound like because of the blog we'll just get tossed freebies and walk away.
Yes I was sent the AL Lost in Faerie collection. I also bought the entire collection with my own money. Same with Victoria's Revenge, I think I ended up with 12 f/s from there. If I see a colour I like, I'll buy it. If I didn't love it, I wouldn't buy it DUHHH. When Suds N Sass allows orders to go through, I'll buy my favs and some perfume there also. (Which reminds me, you still have 2 weeks to use the "hovercatmittens" coupon code to save 15% if you want)

So the moral of the story is, I really gotta stop lurking at that shit for a site and keep doing my own thing. If I wanted cheap chuckles I should have just gone here instead...

Aromaleigh Lost In Faerie

Hullo!

When I got back from holidays I had a lil package waiting for me. Inside, AROMALEIGH'S LOST IN FAERIE SAMPLES!!

W000ty w00t!

This collection along with Victoria's Revenge totally made me think of Sugar and Spice. VR being Spice and LIF being sweet sweet Sugar baby!

They are soft colours with teensy sparks and would be good if someone wanted more colour in their life but not BAM IN YOUR FACE!

The really odd part is my favourite shade of the collection is Elette. It's a really pretty grey shade.

That's right, not a gold or bright yellow but grey! I never thought I'd say I love a grey but I kinda wish I bought 2.

So I can thank Aromaleigh for making me love a neutral :)

I was going to swatch but I got a new camera and they weren't focusing enough but I used the camera to snap pics of the EOTD's I've been making this week.

First up, my fav combo this week using:

Lid: Elette (uber pretty grey)
Crease: Donella (light brown)
Darken the crease a bit: Zanna (dark brown)
Browbone: Oyster (Carolina Mattes)



<3






Hurrah for horrible coverage rimmel foundation :D

Baggy shot!


Next a sort of rainbow pink look:



Inner corner: Celinette (very pretty mustard yellow)
Mid lid: Olinda (pink)
Outter lid and crease: Alina (darker pink, I rock at descriptions!)
Browbone: Rosina (shimmery white)
Lower lash line: Annysia (spring green)





And a 3rd look using LIF and a dormant dream item and a regular item

I used:
Lid: Lorelei eye lustre
Crease: Trixy (dark teal blue)
Browbone: Terpischore (If everone had one of these in their makeup bag, the world would be a better place...)
Lower lash line: Meliora (pale blue)





It's not 100% my favourite look (seems a bit washed out with no liner) but I could have fixed it with some liner. Dang time restrictions! Lorelei is an awesome colour. I bought one sans sample bag, I just knew it was in the yellow gold family so I'll automatically think it's awesome possum.

I'll keep playing around. I bought the whole collection so I don't have to be ascurred of wasting the baggies now! I'm looking at them as I type, just came in today. They say "HAI!" :)

Off to put Elette on my toast now.
Ciao!

I be Haulin'! Annabelle cosmetics Swatches

I'mmmmm baaaaaaaack!

And got my shop on again. London Drugs here is discontinuing all their Annabelle products for some reason (Wal-mart and Shoppers Drug Mart still carries it) so I grabbed a frikkin truckload to swatch fer ya.
For those who don't know, Annabelle is Canuckian and only sold here methinks.

It looked to be all half price so I grabbed some extra's for a future giveaway. (As soon as Fyrinnae lets me hit "paypal please!" I should be set)

This is what I snagged:


And here are the swatches! Pay attention to the first shade and the bright green liner hinty hint hint.



Mineral Pigment dust in Solar and Eco Chic.
Liners from left to right, top row:
Limette, Atomic Surf, Cyber Jungle
2nd row:
Green Tease, Vortex Violet, Bronze

Lipglosses:
Breathless, Liquid Honey

Breathless:



Liquid Honey:



I'm kinda bummed Green Tease doesn't really play nice with me. I should learn my lesson, gold is great as a shadow, crap as a drug store liner. I had a gold liner when I was 16, same thing happened, not enough payoff to look awesome.
Oh well!

Now a sneakpeek at some of the stuffz I wanna toss into my giveaway soon (minus the gloss in the pic, stupid thing burst through the side and I had to squeeze it into a different container :SAD)



(The Annabelle stuff in photo is still sealed, I bought doubles, 1 for meh, 1 for yeh)

oOo Hidden Treasure is in there? That's righty, I found a couple and was going to hoard them both but decided to play nice and give one up.

And why is there a box of candy in there? To show my friends to the south what Smarties are SUPPOSED to look like :) And the chosen one will get to happily nom those babies up too. I just have to pick up a few things from Fyrinnae, go through my stash of backups I can part with, see if I can find another Joe Felt Liner, and I should be all ready to go.

It's GREAT TO BE BACK!!!!

Howdy howdy,
I take off to the airport in a little bit here, so this is my airplane look. Darker than I planned, whoops!

Rant 4 The Ugly Exposed

##Inserted less bitchy words, re-post of this morning's post

Okie dokie, this will be quick (gotta go to work) but the "ladies" at the Rant 4 The Ugly seem to like to see the "Truth" so I feel the need to pass on some disturbing findings by Hoyden (Historical Hound)

I thought that sure, you can't blame an entire company going down, on 1 forum, but after reading these screen caps (that's right! screen caps! Can't lie on those babies) I know for sure Jenna from Stardust along with a bunch of other obsessed, stalker-y lunatics are the crazies** they try to make Kristen of Aromaleigh seem to be. And she knows what she did was wrong (don't forget to read, "Big Warning", you don't get a sick feeling if you are being all "truthful")

And for someone (not Jenna, but still in the group of "uglies"** to bash someones makeup applying techniques? Okay (there)**, where are your 742 followers that check in on YOU everyday?

Once again, I have to go to work, I actually "work" at my work.

I am so pissed off but I'll let you all know how I really feel later.
Yeah
I'm not done yet.

Incase you missed the findings click on HEREREREREEEEE and part II

But what do we know, we're just "Aromabots"....

** means I changed insult to something less bitchy, I did let them get the best of me when they attacked Phyrra about her makeup application.
A whole bunch of you lovely ladies I follow and who follow me use the exact same minerals, so to insult someone who chooses to wear something that "isn't the norm" (aka neutrals) is like kicking us all in the face. It takes a lot of courage to even post EOTD's and to have someone flat out make fun of it really sucks. If it was that private, they should have been emailing each other.
Besides, 742 followers can't be wrong!
Off to bed to dream of happy things :)
