The Not-So Glamorous Life

Although my passions are all things fabulous, I also have a rough side. In case some of you don't know, I have a tendency to be a fighter.....

Case In Point:
Thug means never having to say you're sorry.....

Maybe this is an opportunity for me to test the coverage power of my makeup? I had a dream last night that I could virtually cover the entire thing with concealer... somehow I don't think that's quite possible.

In all seriousness, I didn't get in a fight with anyone... I just got in a fight with a softball.
I'll be sure to post pics of the recovery!!


Thug life.

A Little Update.....

Well...  I have been MIA for a few weeks.... so sorry...
Justin and I took a trip to Albuquerque for a friend's wedding, and I caught the bouquet!!

Lucky Justin!!



(Not a picture of the actual bouquet.... even though I do have rather mannish hands).

In other news, I am still staying strong with my Project 10 Pan!!
I am about 3/4 of the way through my Revlon Photo Ready foundation, and about 1/2 way through my NARS Bronzer.... This project is a little more difficult than I thought it would be.
But I must say, I do fall asleep each night with a smile on my face, dreaming about all of the things I'm going to buy when I have the chance!

I know I said that I really loved the Revlon foundation, but I think I've had a change of heart... Lately I've noticed that when I wear it in photos, it makes me look lighter than I really am, I think due to the reflective particles in it. I'm thinking I may go back to my old trusty Bare Minerals foundations after my P10P is over.... Any thoughts? I used Bare Minerals for years and never had a problem with it... I just felt like changing to liquid foundation for some strange reason. We'll see. 

In new makeup news, here are a few things I'm looking forward to buying post-Project 10 Pan:


The famous Lancome Hypnose mascara. A favorite of stars such as Khloe Kardashian. I used to use this mascara years ago, and I remember thinking it was amazing. It's a little pricey (Around $23), but well worth it.

MAC Dollymix Blush. Although it may look a little bit bright, it's said to give you enviable pink cheeks, and is raved about by many YouTube gurus.

 Finally, the product that each and every YouTube beauty guru has been raving about: the Urban Decay Naked Palette. I can not WAIT to get my hands on one of these... luckily for me, while I can't buy any right now, they're currently sold out across the US. Rumor has it that Ulta and Sephora should be restocking these in mid-October. Yay!


 Well, that's about all I have to say for now... I'll keep you all updated on my Project 10 Pan, and also on the engagement front.... What's the time frame a boyfriend is supposed to follow when his girlfriend catches the bouquet? 

Hmmm..........
