New Stuff, Part 2! + Nic's New Store Giveway!

Gah, I'm still waiting for something in the mail! It's taking forever, so I'll just do Part 2 without it. I've already used all of the products below~

Something I want to change about myself...

This past weekend, I got together with a girlfriend I hadn't seen ages!  We strolled downtown, which was very busy because of an arts festival... saw a couple of half-naked dudes... I dunno why, but whenever there's a downtown event, someone always feels the need to take off their shirt... *shrug*


SO anyway, the one thing I want to change about myself:  I want to stop making so many facial expressions.  I noticed after spending a few hours chatting with my friend, my facial muscles were slightly sore, and my throat a little scratchy from trying to talk over the noise of the lounge we were at.

NARS Pleasures of Paris: 2 Looks!

Thanks for all the positive feedback on my last FOTD! :D Maybe it's the way I crop my photos, but in real life, I'm not cute. Anyone having a get-together? I'm not coming. :) Thanks gals~

This bear was a gift from the fiance for my b-day last year.  He sits next to my makeup hehe ~ :)

The NARS palettes usually contain 1 color that I wouldn't use, but all the colors in 9951 Pleasures of Paris (or Doucers de Paris) are great, go-to shades for me~

New Stuff, Part 1!

Just wanted to share some of my new things! I'm still waiting on a few items, so I'll do a Part 2 later on~ I only meant to get an eye cream, haha! I'll just excuse myself and say it's to reward myself for surviving a stressful month... ;P

By the way, I got some of this from eBay! In Part 2, I'll list the sellers I bought from.

Shiseido Sun Protection Eye Cream SPF32 PA+++
Shiseido Concentrated Anti-Wrinkle Eye Cream
Walgreens Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen SPF55

Quick Demo! Vita-Mix 5200!

The fiance's parents bought us a Vita-Mix juicer a couple weeks ago - it's so nifty! Gals who are getting married - I highly recommend you put this on your gift registry thing!! 

So here's a quick demo! What I used - blueberries, blackberries, kiwi, yogurt, kefir and soymilk. This is the juicer, in all it's glory:
