Chaos: T-minus 5 hours and counting

Yay, leaving for Vegas soon!
Fran's birthday is going to be insaneee
I need to go home and pack!
Every time I need to pack, I have to make a list of items to bring.  Is it because I might forget to bring something in the end or because I'm organized? mm..
I like the movie "As Good as It Gets"..
I have to see Shutter Island soon! I hear it's a nice psychological thriller..
I swear I saw previews for that movie like 1 year ago though.. I thought it was already on DVD!
By the way, I received my order from this girl who was selling her makeup! I basically bought blushes from Smashbox, Nars, and MAC.  She included a LA Colors eyeshadow palette as a gift! The colors are so pretty.. I'll try to do swatches of everything when I get return .. orrr maybe I should bring my notebook with me to Vegas!



I'M SO EXCITED! lol.. Finally get to relax and escape from Real Life for a few days!
xx, j

P.S. Christy said she's going to think of a gangster name for me while we're there.  We'll see... OH!! I don't watch Jersey Shore, but name "The Situation" is hilarious!  I was listening to the radio in the morning and Ryan Seacrest is "The Pulsation" while Kim Kardashian is "The Infatuation".  HAhahah

FOTD // Purple + Black

First time doing a tutorial!
I'm using Urban Decay's Alice in Wonderland palette..

Steps:

 Brush off the fall out from the eyeshadow.. Apply foundation, draw in eyebrows, dust on a bit of blush..

  

FIN!

I look pale as fuck! But I'm facing the window, so meh..

Anyway, you can line your inner waterline with black or just apply shimmery white stuff..

I don't curl and use mascara on my eyelashes usually.  They're just short and not that visible anyway!  Besides, it's 10x easier to apply false lashes with nothing in the way!

Products used:

Eyes:

Urban Decay: Primer potion

Urban Decay: Alice in Wonderland Palette

     Purple Eyeshadow: Absolem

     Black Eyeshadow: Jabberwocky

MAC: blacktrack eyeliner

Darkness: Kma9 false eyelashes

Neo Color circle in Brown

Face:

MAC: NC25 Studio fix

Unknown brand: peach blush

 

 Pickups! + samples that the nice SA decided to include.. Korean brand Ossion which I have never heard of.  She recommended it after I asked whether they carried Laneige.  I had actually been on the search for Shisem false lashes, but when I asked the SA, she said Shisem stopped shipping to America 3 years ago.. not sure if this is true..

Resolutions

 

Hahaha.. in Dec. 2008, I was at a Celine Dion concert and in Dec 2009, I was at a Lady Gaga concert

So.. the new year..

I don't understand how some people can have a LIST of resolutions for the new year.  Realistically, no one will follow through with it till the end! I know it, you know it, we all know it.  It's like.. yeah, you might be incredibly enthusiastic about it in the beginning, but as time goes on, you start to find loopholes, you start to make exceptions, until you forget about the resolution entirely! Fine, maybe I'm really just using myself as an example, but I KNOW it holds true for the majority!  So my resolution for 2010 is:  Don't be late for more than 5 minutes! Realistic enough? I think so.  As of January 17, so far, so good!
