BLUSHING SUMMER GOLDS Urban Decay's Alice in Wonderland Palette

      HELLOOOOOoo~~~ long time no see! I've been avoiding putting this video up because of the voice-over section: VERY unhappy with it! The sound quality makes me so sad :(:(:( this was recorded soooo long ago!!!! ..sooo I think it's safe to say it's the end of my voice-over trials.

      I knowwwwww I've been using this palette for forever - but keep in mind, I am on a budget ... so let's just pretend that I own a lot of Urban Decay single shadows =) ...& speaking of a budget, I even bothered to RANSACK through my mom's old things and found an aaaaaancient Givenchy blush trio that was (surprisingly) perfect for my skin! I'm sure it doesn't exist anywhere anymore - apparently my dad bought it for their first anniversary or something.

      Recently, this has been my go-to look for work, as well as when I wear these contacts :) It's a greaat look for brown eyes - it really brings out the warmth & makes it look extra sparkly. I loove this for a quick summer look cuz it lets me look fresh while still having a complete and polished, work-appropriate face. QuickquickQUICK is my motto before work & this took VERY little time to finish.

(keep in mind that these pictures were taken in the nighttime after a full day of work w/o reapplying)

RED LIPS SWATCHES / REVLON SUPER LUSTROUS LIPSTICK REVIEW

      Since I'm still healing from my wisdom tooth contraction, any filming whatsoever won't be available until ... hopefully this weekend the soonest at least :S I'm really getting tired of this swollen cheek, and especially since it's on the side I looove to sleep on, I've been waking up really cranky and exhausted *sigh

      While I'm still not camera-presentable, I finally got the time to swatch these new lippies I got just last week, the day of the Sex & the City 2 premiere! :) There was a sale on Revlon Super Lustrous lippies for $4.99 I think, which is a huuuge break since they're usually almost $10!!! (yes, I'm cheap, but I am unemployed so you gotta give a girl a break here). I went on a red lipstick RAMPAGE! Even though I've totally already fallen in love with my YSL Rouge Volupte #16 - which is a nice orangey red (swatched below), I thought I'd give other reds a whirl :) ..in the meantime, I quickly passed by MAC at the Bay to pick up Crosswires - the perfect Coral Pink for my complection - using a gift card I got for my birthday.
