China Glaze Win.

- I won one of the giveaways from China Glaze, I was so excited to get this.  I love these aqua'y shades, and I didn't have this one yet.  And I've never tried their fast dry top coats, but I'm always all for anything that makes my polish dry faster.

Thank you China Glaze, I heart you - always.

Sonia's Package.


- I don't think I ever got this up, I'm sorry I didn't.  I fail.

This was a amazing package from Sonia, I loved all of it.   And I've rocked some of it, even though I don't always get pictures when I do.

Yay for awesome packages.  And yay for Sonia.

Bright Pink Nails...

 - This is the polish I showed you in my last post.  It's SpaRitual "Knowledge Is Power", I really didn't think it'd be as bright as it is.   Certainly a summer polish, I feel I should be on a beach, not pumping gas like I was doing in some of these photos.
 - Inside no real lights on, just sun through the windows.
 - My camera phone couldn't even handle these.  And I'd forgotten my actual camera at home (plus it's dead atm, need to charge it.).

 - And this was taken pretty much in the dark but you could still tell how bright they were.

Plus these nails fit in perfectly to the "Totally 80's" challenge in NTMS I feel haha.
- Oh and this is a totally random note I found in a cart at Walgreens, I figure it's some employee's notes.  But they were too amusing, I couldn't not take a photo.

Mail Is Always Love...

- First off, I got an Avon matte polish in Red Velvet, sorry I didn't take it out of the box, got it off ebay.  Then I had a voucher to Dermstore from referring someone so I got the Spa Ritual (my first) for free.  It's called Knowledge Is Power.   If you'd like a coupon from Dermstore for 10 dollars off a 30 dollar purchase with free shipping, leave me your email in a comment and I'll send you an invite.  I do believe it needs to be an email address you haven't used with the site tho, so keep that in mind.
- Then this is two orders from VitaCost, I used mainly voucher but paid shipping.   So just over 10 dollars is out of pocket.   The tea and Atopalm are free samples (I forgot free samples on the other order and kicked myself for it.).   I also got something not pictured because it's for a friend.   I'm really excited for the lip products and I'd been needing eye drops like mad.  Hi Allergies.
Oh and I got two cans of cat food I forgot to put in the picture.

I really do love this site.  If you want a voucher for 10 dollars on their site with no minimum order just CLICK HERE and if you aim your order right you just pay for shipping which is only 4.99.   If you click the Vitacost tag you'll see another amazing order I did on there which was 70+ worth of products for only 69 cents!

Eyeshadow Storage...

- Got a new drawer liner, I am so in love with the pattern on it.


- This was mid process of organizing my eyeshadow drawers last night, my 3rd Melmer is all put together so I'm making one pretty much all for eyeshadows.   The one shown here on the right is for palettes, the left for singles.  I couldn't finish the left because I didn't have anymore dividers, and it's my older drawer you can see the old liner I had.


- This was how I left it last night, sorry my just the camera phone shot.
- The above shot was it after I added more dividers and tried to organize it up.   Looks like I'll either need to double up or start a 3rd drawer soon.  This also isn't all my shadows, my pigments aren't here nor my big palettes.

This drawer I just put together for now, with some newer lip stuff, I have like ten thousand lip glosses in other room this is kind of a just for now situation until my shadows need to take it over, but I thought maybe I'd get to use more of my newer glosses.

And then below is the shadows I took out and put into one of the purple drawers you see in this photo (pack of four at the dollar store) because these I will be depotting, I ordered a magnetic palette from TKB, as well as some stuff to press some shadows since I've been wanting to try.   I also have three palettes in mind I figure I'll depot too, 3 Maybelline's and one Covergirl.

Nails Currently And Project Pan Update.

 - Just a couple camera phone shots (admittedly I seldom use this phone for a camera because it's not a very good one at all, but these didn't look too bad), this is Wet N Wild's Wet Cement which I'd meaning to try since I got it, and I love it.   The accent nail is Orly Star Spangled.
- Also Project Pan Update: I finished off a deodorant (even tho it wasn't on my original pan list I put it with my empties anyway) and the lotion from my list.  Yay!   Still haven't made any big dents on the palette or liner but admittedly I haven't worn a lot of make up lately.  I fail, I know.   Considering I think I only have a week left before my month mark.  Then I decide how I want to proceed.  And I also admit I haven't been perfect on my no buy, but I knew from the get go I wouldn't be.  But I do believe I have shopped less, so that's at least something.

Inspired Make Up - Done By Joe.

 - I hung out with Joe today and she did my make up, in about half an hour, the fastest we've done it in awhile.

This look was inspired by this post: Bows And Curtseys: Wicked Wanderlust.   And if you've never looked at her blog, do so immediately, or well after you look at my post, she is amazing at what she does.

 She used her Manly 120 palette.   Jane Clubbing, a black out of one of her Kat Von D palette's.   And a Aromaleigh shadow in Celeste as well.  I think that was all of them.  Then a Maybelline Falsie's mascara.  And a black liner from ebay.

And I'm sorry this is a touch blurry, both I took were.


 - This is a new NYC gloss, called Liquid LipShine in Big Apple Spice.
 - I really loved this look.

- And one of me being a dork.

Thank You Jenna!

- This is a amazing package from my friend Jenna.  She sent me a Tokidoki palette called Vegas.   A Hello Kitty polish in Red Sparkle.  Sephora by OPI nail art pen in Graffiti Girl Blues.  A Bastardino little toy from Tokidoki (sooo cute, sorry I didn't get a pic of it outside of the box.).  And last but not least a Sinful polish which I didn't have and I don't think I've heard of, called Show Me The Way.
