This vs. That: Primers

We've all heard of UDPP, it works wonders and we all love it....however lately I've noticed that it is bothering my eyes. Maybe it always has, who knows?..But I am realizing it now. My eyes itch shortly after applying and sometimes they even begin to water.

This is annoying for a few reasons.
1. I just want to itch my eyes therefore messing up my eyeshadow.
2.) my eyeliner/mascara starts to run, and...
3.) it's just plain uncomfortable!!!

Not cool!

I haven't tried too many others but the few I have just didn't work. They caused creasing and it was just a mess. (although sometimes I do like the messy look). I decided to give the Pilladio eye primer from Sally's a try. I have to say I like it. It doesn't cause irritation to my eye :-) but the packaging is smaller then UDPP and also the same, causing a lot of product to go to waste.

Moral of the story...if anyone else's eyes are irritated by UDPP or any other primer for that matter, the Pilladio is affordable and easier to get to. (well, for me anyway!) Just a suggestion...

Until next time dolls, hugs & kisses xoxo

Lady Gaga: Ridiculous or Not?

Now, don't get me wrong..I like her music, but COME ON. She is just completely ridiculous. Half the things she does is unnecessary and her "dress" she wore to the VMA's was made of raw meat, along with her shoes, hat and purse. I am not a vegetarian but animals die daily for us to eat. Okay, we are surviving off that...but for her to wear it as an outfit I don't agree with.

I don't buy it that she's just "1 of a kind' or "trying to stand out". The girl is an idiot and obviously starving for attention in every way possible, as if being famous isn't enough attention for her already.

What are your thoughts?

Nude Lipsticks

Nude lips are definitely my thing. You will never catch me wearing a bright lip but will always catch me wearing something nude, whether it's a gloss or lipstick and I am always on the lookout to add some new ones to my collection. Below is a picture of my favorite nude lipsticks that I am always reaching for...

Left to Right:

NYX Circe, MAC Myth, MAC Slimshine in Bare, Hard Candy Fire Alarm, Jemma Kid Belle De Jour, Napoleon Perdis San Francisco, Revlon Soft Nude, Revlon Nude Attitude

I love all these colors so much that I have back ups of each on hand. lol.

This too shall pass

I have a serious obsession with piercings and tattoos! I got my 4th tattoo today & I must say I really love it :-) I love that it's different then most of the tattoos you see on other people. It says "this too shall pass" which is very inspirational because time heals all & what may cause sorrow now will eventually become something in the past.

What do you guys think? Does anyone else love tattoos??

Moonlight

I absolutely love this color by China Glaze. I probably wear this 95% of the time, occasionally switching it up...but this color is such a great color. It looks very classy and clean on. The picture makes it appear more white then it really is, it's actually more of a see through white color. I absolutely adore it! If anyone is looking for a simple nail color that goes with everything  & looks classy, I definitely suggest this! 2 coats topped with Seche Vite & you're good to go! :-)

Retail Therapy

Hey Dolls-
I did a little bit of shopping during the week and brought home a few goodies. Nothing extreme but enough to keep a girl happy :-) I am by far, the worst picture taker ever...so I was unable to take pictures of everything I bought, but what can ya do. & due to work I missed the fabulous felines event!

The Makeup

MAC paint pot in Soft Ochre
MAC 252 Brush
2 MAC 130 Brushes
MAC lipstick in Snob
& MAC Mineralize SkinFinish in NC30

to be honest, I don't know why I got 2 of the 130's. I  think it was by accident but I really wanted the 131, which there was none of.




The Glasses

I am LOVING both of these glasses! They really add that extra bit of style to any outfit.







The Jewelry

I found this necklace at Target & fell in love! I don't know how much this picture does it justice but it's just a really great statement piece. I have yet to wear it but I can't wait until I do!

I also bought a snake necklace from Guess which I also love & some Betsey Johnson jewelry but as mentioned above, I'm no photographer & I'm lucky if I get somewhat decent pics!



Well, that's it! until next time...
