It ain't easy being green.

Sorry to be MIA as of late but I was busy being a mother to a 13 year old. Gross, lol, I have no interest in being a mother ever. Anywho here's a quick green look I did for Father's Day. We took daddy to my new favorite place called Secret Garden. They have the most amazing breakfast! Yum!!!  This is Sugarpill Chromalust in Absinthe and a bit of Goldilux.






Sorry folks, no full face shots as that day was nothing but smoke and 98 degree nastyness. Lately I've been all about green eyes and pink lips. Love it, especially with my black hair.

Yay, awards!

Wendy tagged me for several awards which is always so exciting! Thanks grrl! Please check out her blog and give her some love. I was previously tagged for the Kreativ Blogger Award. Ok, let's do this!




The Rules:
1. Thank the person that gave you the awards, and link back to them.
2. Post 7 things about yourself.
3. Pass the love to15 bloggers.
4. Let them know they've received the awards!


1. I have a serious spending problem. I mean I am just obsessed with shopping. Not just for myself but for others as well. Make up, polishes, purses, jewelry, clothes, food, gifts...ugh! I want it all!

2. I think sharks are stupid.
3. My dream wedding would be in Vegas getting married by Elvis. The groom would wear one of those trashy tuxedo shirts and I'd be dressed in a sequin teal tube dress with this Betsey Johnson necklace. No family or friends just us and the dogs. You think I'm weird now, huh?lol
4. I can be a major bitch when someone does the most perfect thing to piss me off. That's when I am the most clever and humorous.
5. I'm a dog lover and a cat 'liker'. But when I see all these cat memes and 'icanhaz' I die.lol
6. My current favorite movies are Scott Pilgrim VS. The World, Miss March, and Easy A.
7. I feel the most comfortable and natural in sweats, a tank top, big pink hair, bright makeup, and bright nails.
I feel that every blog I'm following has already received these awards. If you haven't been picked for these awards then this one's for you! Have fun ladies!

Everything's better in 3D

Last weekend I signed up for a free bronze makeover at my local Sephora. The makeup was pretty but by the time I went to take pictures the 98 degree weather melted my face...off. I chose the Lorac makeover as it was a brand I had no experience with. Lorac is a great brand but I couldn't justify the price for a 4 eyeshadow palette. However I knew I had to have their Multiplex lip gloss in 3D! Along with 3D I received a goodie bag for coming in which included products from Nars and a mini Lorac 3D mascara. I have a little mascara post that will make an appearance soon.


My cute goodie bag. <3 Mini Benefit perfume, Lorac tinted moisturizer, Mineral foundation, Nars cleanser, Nars shadow pencil, Lorac 3D mascara, and benefit porefessional pore balm.







Swatched on my hand.

3D looks brown in the tube but when applied it's a gorgeous pink/copper duochrome with tons of sparkle. The color is beautiful and the gloss smells tropical. But of course it has that icky gloss texture. I have yet to find a gloss that doesn't have that feeling. This gloss looks beautiful over pink as well, unfortunately no pics but please take my word for it!

Ebates

I just wanted to do a quick update about Ebates. You may have noticed that I added an Ebates button on my side bar. That's because I've been trying it out and I love it! You just make an account with them, it's free. Not all online shops are connected with Ebates but you can always double check. Certain online shops allow Ebates to give you back a percentage of the money you spend! You can also find coupons. All you do is start your browsing on Ebates and pick the store you want to shop from there. On my first attempt I purchased The Balm Time Bomb concealer from Sephora. This is the only item I paid for! I was able to get a coupon from Ebates to get a free make up bag from Benefit, my 3 free samples, and used 100 beauty points to get the new Benefit They're Real Mascara! I know it isn't much but combined with all that I also got back $1.44. Now if you do a lot of shopping online that money is going to add up. So if you have the time check out the website and see if it's something you want to experience. If you click on my links or the button on my sidebar it will link me as the referrer and I do get bonuses on my account. You can have the same advantages when you make an account and refer your friends too! Also during the holidays the website tends to giveaway an added percentage allowing you to get more money back.
