MIA no longer

Eep, I sorta fell off the face of the earth for a few days. I’ve just been busy since starting my summer session class - British Lit from 1760.
 
Aaaanyways. If you live anywhere near a MAC Pro store and don’t have it yet, go buy yourself some Water Based Mixing Medium. I just picked some […]

Neutral eyes and semi-red lips

Tutorial time again! (Or: Courtney had time to kill before work) This time, we’re doing a much more subdued look than before, but something that still has a little bit of kick to it.
1. Moisturize and apply your foundation (I used Select SPF 15 in NW20 and a brush similar to the 190). I couldn’t get […]

MAC seminar and whatnot

I signed myself up for a MAC Techniques seminar last night. While heading to it, however, I managed to cause a fairly decent car accident. “Fairly decent” = I need a new car. Yeah, that bad. (Everyone was fine, don’t worry.) However, a friend of mine who was also signed up for the seminar rescued me and I still […]

Multi-fandom (?) post

Okay, first thing’s first. All those people you heard talking about Diorshow Blackout mascara, saying it was amazing? Those people spoke the truth. I tested it out at Sephora the other day. Oh wow. It’s $23 of well worth it. Not kidding. My lashes were obscenely long and unbelievably dark. My camera is useless with close-ups, […]

Review : C Shock part deux

I couldn’t help it, I had to go back for a second look.
I bought more stuff. Naturally.
Overrich lipstick is gorgeous, oh my goodness. And with Lil Sizzler lip gelee over it? I almost died. I asked the MA for those, paid, and walked to my car. Once inside, I pull out my goodies to put […]

Review: C Shock (MAC)

I walked into MAC this morning wanting every single item from this collection. I left 75 dollars poorer and still wanting the things I didn’t get.
It’s that good.
Eyeshadow: The pigmentation of all the shadows was great - they’re bright in the pot and just as bright on. Even without a base, they’re all amazing. I […]

The Rumor Mill

There’s a rumor floating around that the C Shock counter/store release date was pushed up to today. The MAC store in Brea Mall (Brea, CA) definitely has it out. I’m about to hit up the Galleria at Tyler (Riverside, CA) counter to see if that’s the case. If so, I’ll report back with the news. […]

Top 5 : Drugstore

You know those products that look like they cost you $20 but you really got them at Walgreens for $2.75? Yeah, this is a list of my favorite products like that.
1.  CoverGirl Eye Enhancers in Golden Sunrise
This color (on me, at least) is identical to MAC’s Amber Lights. They’re also pretty much identical in color payoff […]
