Almost 2 AM.

So..... It is nearly 2 AM here in California and I can't sleep. I have a lot on my mind, nothing I care to really get into right now as I'm not perfectly sure who reads this as well as the fact that I'm not really sure what is going on with me currently! All I know is that I am seriously confused, having all sorts of mixed emotions and what not and trying to find a way to see through the darkness. I'm listening to Sara Bareilles - she rocks BTW. Anyway guys, sorry I have been MIA on YouTube - I haven't been home for the past week, but I go home tomorrow and will be doing a video on my new makeup bag either tomorrow or Thursday.

I hope you guys are all sleeping - well I suppose you aren't if you are currently reading this :) But I mean when I wrote this, I hope you were sleeping.

I'll be seeing you soon.

In's and Out's

Hey guys. So Lollipop26 and AllThatGlitters21 have done these and I thought I would jump on the bandwagon!

In's:
1. Vanilla. Anything that smells like vanilla. I have no idea why, I just love it. I think it started with Vanilla Cupcake Bubblebath from Sephora - OMG to die for!

2. Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream. I have really dry feet - gross I know but it's true. I use it and since it is a cream, it stays on and doesn't come on. My feet just absorb it like there is no other.

3. Cetaphil Moisturizer with SPF 15. I can't remember what it is called exactly but this stuff works really well. I was a bit skeptical since I have really dry skin and SPFs tend to dry out my skin. But seriously, it is awesome. I think it might work for people with more of a normal skin type and since my face is dry I might try the cream on my face... not sure though.

4. Caress Body Wash in Berry Inludging. I have used 2 other Caress Body Washes before and they are all amazing. I love them all! They clean really nicely and moisturize at the same time. The scent of this stuff just makes me go into a different place - I adore it.


Out's:
1. Clean and Clear Dual Action Moisturizer. It is medicated with 0.5% Salicylic Acid. I thought this stuff would be pretty good since I love Clean and Clear's other products. NO! It worked for a few days and then when I noticed that when I would use it, it would make my skin feel dry and tight. Probably the medication in it. If you have dry skin, don't use this. It might work for oily skin since it is oil free but I don't know.

2. Coastal Scents. I have nothing good to say about this company. They are horrible with the way they treat their customers. I mean, seriously... calling someone ignorant?! Give me a break.

3. AmLactin Body Cream. My doctor told me to get this because I have red bumps on my upper arms... this stuff is an okay lotion/body cream. I mean it mositurizes pretty nice and I have heard people rave about it for feet.. but the smell is atrocious. It feels like it is burning my nose hairs off. I can't stand this stuff.


I think that is about it. I will post a video at the end of the month with my favorites for February.. if you guys are interested in it.

New MAC addiction

Ok.. so I have a problem!!!!!

I had done some work for my mom, helping her type since she burnt her hands, and so she paid me $30. Not much but it was nice. So I looked at the sale ads for Walgreens, Rite-Aid, and Longs Drugs... I went to Walgreens and was looking at the new L'Oreal Double Extend Tubes mascara and L'Oreal Telescopic which would have been about $14 (BOGO 50% off) and then the L'Oreal True Match Liquid Foundation which was about $11 and that was BOGO 50% off too.. so I could have gotten that and one mascara for about $15 or both mascaras and that and something else for like $30... well no, I didn't do that. For some reason I decided to go to MAC. So I got in my car and went to the mall which is like 15 mins away (ON THE FREEWAY!)

So I go there and I spend $31 on concealer and Viva Glam V (Five) lipstick. I don't mind the lipstick since it all goes to charity but I didn't want to spend $30 on 4 things from L'Oreal but have no problem spending $30 on two things from MAC.. WTF!?

Anyway, I thought it was funny. So yeah, now I have a serious MAC addiction.. and you know what? I'm perfectly ok with it.

This next week and some packages!

Hey guys. So my last Coastal Scents order came in the mail today, I won't be buying from them anymore due to the fact that they called one of their customers ignorant for stating some facts that she had found out about Silica powder and then defended CS by saying they weren't the ones who were telling people to use it like MUFE HD Powder - so I will be buying the stuff I would have bought from CS on eBay, it is cheaper there anyway.

So anyway... the package came in today but it is at my husband's work since I have all my packages sent there because FedEx and UPS don't ship to our area until late at night. Well it came just after he left for lunch so it is still there with him but when he gets home I will open it and do a haul video for you guys.

Our new backpack came in too, at his office as well, and I'm super stoked! I saw it at Sports Authority since they were having a huge sale but it was cheaper online at http://www.ebags.com/ I also bought a cosmetic bag that has yet to ship :( I measured my 88 palette and comparied to the dimensions that they gave and my palettes should fit, so here is to having our fingers crossed. Anyway.. check my YouTube (www.youtube.com/paintedFACEmakeup) later tonight to see the backpack and the CS order

For the next week, John and I will be at his parents house - they are going to Florida to visit Rhonda's (his Mama) sister. They leave tomorrow morning and come back next Wednesday. I will have my computer so I will be updating my blog but not sure if I will make any videos.. I have a few on here though so I might edit them tonight and then post them if you guys want to see them - just let me know =]

I hope you guys have a great week and I'll see you later tonight.

Also, I am in need of a really good cheek highlight color... if you any ideas or suggestions please let me know =]

New Update.

Hey guys, sorry I have been MIA. I need to be better about updating this thing! Haha. Anyway, Saturday was my birthday and John and I went to Disneyland. It rained on us.. not too bad until about 10 then it got heavier and then stopped around 11:30ish until 2:30 or 3 and then was a downpour! But we had a blast. We had expected to stay until midnight when they closed but we got through everything we wanted to do/see, aside from the 2 things closed due to the rain, by noon. So we had lunch up by Splash Mountain at Hungry Bear Restaurant and then rode a few more rides that we wanted to do, then we went on the train twice in a row and had some toffee and a soda to share. When we were finishing up the last part of the first time around it started to rain again (that's the downpour one) so we rode it again. After that second time we got out and walked up Main Street, more on the side under awnings and inside stores, and then got to the locker where we put our ponchos back on and got the rest of our stuff. We looked through a few stores and weren't sure we wanted to buy anything but we browsed. Then we left the park and went into the big Disney store at Downtown Disney. After that, we made our way to the Disneyland Hotel where we were having dinner at Goofy's Kitchen. We went to the bathroom and changed.. well, just our socks since we had managed to stay mostly dry from the park to the hotel. Man! It is such a difference having your socks dry, even if your shoes are a bit wet.

After dinner, we left and were on our way home, about 7:15ish. We stopped at the Glendale Galleria which is about half way between home and Disneyland. I went into Sephora and MAC and bought some stuff at MAC for my birthday. I have a haul video on YouTube that you can check out to see what I bought.

Other than my birthday, my life has pretty much been uneventful. We did learn that we are getting a big tax return though which is nice. So we are able to go to Houston in May for John's grandparents' 50th wedding anniversary. We are also going to buy Annual Passes to Disneyland and are going back for his birthday and our anniversary in March. We want to go a bunch and we found out through this trip that we actually don't spend as much as we thought we did.. it is mainly just tickets and after going just 4 DAYS.. not times but actual days, it pays for itself since it is a Park Hopper and has free parking included in it and 10-15% off food and merchandise.

So anyway, thanks for reading this and I will try my hardest to update it =]

I love you all!

Why should I use an eye shadow primer??

View my video for the full explaination.

Here are most pictures so you can better review them.

Feel free to ask me any questions you might have.

1st picture - UDPP was used.
2nd picture - No UDPP.
3rd Picture - No UDPP.
4th Picture - Left eye (UDPP). Right eye (Nothing).
5th Picture - 8 hours after the 4th picture















On the eye with nothing, the blue did not even show up.. therefore it looks a lot darker than the one that had UDPP.


Eye shadow primers help your eye shadow stay on all day, not smudge, to not crease, and decrease the amount of fall out. I believe that the fall out is due to the eye shadow not having anything to hold on to.
