Word of Caution to Swappers!!!!

If you swap with somebody, especially somebody international, make sure you are clear about your terms!! Lay it out on the table in plain terms!

Shit! People are crazy!

Shit!! I just realized that I REALLY REALLY HATE PEOPLE!!!

1) During car accidents: the person who SOMEHOW manages to twist reality, and conclude that he doesn't have to take responsibility for hitting your car.

"It's not MY fault because YOU didn't see me coming. I was WAVING at you, didn't you see?!?"

EOTD: Esprique Precious C-4 + Mini-haul

Hey gals! Here, finally, is my look using the C-4 palette! It's nothing too grand, although I tried to pack on more shadow, thinking that it'll show up more in the photos - of course, I once again underestimated the washing-out abilities of my camera. *SIGH* I tried taking photos from different angles to get the shimmer to show up... IRL, the shadows are beautiful - shimmery, pigmented, yet understated.

Mini-haul: Esprique Precious + Blog Award

I finally bit the bullet, and ordered these from Adambeauty! Wee~ I was going to wait for the Fall 2009 collection, but after looking at the promo's, I decided the new stuff still can't replace these beauties.

FOTD: Shiseido, etc.

Duuude, the fireworks tonight were sooo rad! xD Did everyone have a good night? So, here's what my makeup looked like today. It's totally boring, but I AM excited about one particular product - the Shiseido Brightening Veil! I bought this from Claire at eclecticism* for an AMAZING price. She also included a sample MAC pigment in Gold Mode, which I also used in today's look. Thank you, Claire!!

Can't believe I'm so late with posting - sorry everyone! I've been trying to look for a job, and I actually found one. *shock* It was definitely easier than I expected, but I think hiring people are always more sympathetic towards poor students, haha. YAY for more money to spend on makeup and skincare! *~EXXXXXCELLENT~*

New Skincare + My Eyes + Lulu's Contest

Hi hi hi! *waves* ~ ~ How's the weekend been, peeps? :D My monthly dot is done, infection is gone, and now a new problem - my SKIN! Yipee! I just noticed a few days ago that it's flaky and dry to the touch, so I walked to Whole Foods to buy some new stuff. All in all, I don't really care whether or not a product is "natural," just as long as it works and convenient to buy.

First, is the Devita Daytime Nutritional Moisturizer with 1% Hyaluronic Acid. I LOVE this!! It's light, but the gel is thicker than most. No scent whatsoever. Makes me skin feel really smooth.

First Swaps, RMK, Weleda + GIVEAWAYS!

Gah! I got an eye-infection, cold, and my period ALL in the same week! :( *sniff* At least I'm finally done with my essay, and now it's on to many more essays for 36 schools and counting! *cries* But physical ailments and school applications can't stop THE BEAUTY OBSESSION BABY ~ WOOO!!!!

EDIT: By the way - Please enter NARITA'S Giveaway!! She's giving away awesome new MAC stuff! And of course MILLIE'S Contest as well! You can win Skinfood products and other goodies yay~ The links are at the top!

So swapping is quite an easy-peesy-lemon-squeezy thing! I was hesitant at first, since there's seldom product photos and minimal info about the swapper on MUA, but whatever!! How can I not trust my fellow beauty-obsessed people??? xD

Swap stuff: BBW lotions, Clinique exfoliator, NYX eyeshadow pencil, and extras!! I love the mini-eyeshadow brushes!! Haha... they are a little bit longer than the average sponge-tip. So cute~
