I'm still working on the gift card giveaway (since I have to tally up more than 1 entry per person and type each name by hand it's taking longer). For now though since I could just random.org this and pick out the comment in order I am putting up the winner of my Facebook Giveaway from March. I had a total of 64 comments including my own (of course I would have re-rolled if I got a 1 lol).
Congratulations Bebety Daud!!!
I have e-mailed you, please respond within 48hrs or I will have to choose another winner.
Since I have the day off finally, I'm going to try and work on the the reviews I need post as well as possibly a makeup tutorial if my eyes aren't too irritated from getting used to contacts.
As most of you should know by my posts, I am getting married on May 4th which is REALLY close now. I've been trying to get everything around and it's pretty chaotic the last month or so! So I just wanted to let everyone know I'm still here and I've just been so busy/stressed with making sure everything goes as smooth as possible for my wedding day. I know I'm way behind on reviews, makeup looks, and most importantly picking the winners for my giveaways (please don't worry! once the wedding is over I will have a ton of time to pick them!)
I apologize again for it taking so long to pick winners but I have to actually check the info you post and count/type up all the entries which takes forever in itself. :(
P.S. don't forget to enter my Dinair airbrush kit giveaway on the side bar!
So because I have the Dinair Airbrush kit I'm considering just doing my own makeup for my wedding day. This is mainly because I've found airbrush makeup to be the most flawless and natural looking out of all the foundations I've tried out over the years. I decided to try out a kind of classic Dita Von Teese sort of look for the first one.
My fiance' kept telling me how pretty I looked when we out for dinner that day so I like this so far, but again it's the first one I tried. I am getting married outside around 5:30pm so it's stretching more towards the evening hours so we'll see if I want to go a little more or a little less dramatic. :) For this look I used my Physician's Formula 2-1 eyeliner pen (if you don't own it go get it! I seriously love that liner!), Wet n Wild Vanity palette, and MAC eye kohl in Fascinate. Coming up I'll be reviewing (sorry it's taken me forever, crazy wedding planning!) High Voltage Cosmetics, Dark Heart Design's, Sugarpill (Lumi and Weekend), Chunky Bling, and doing some more looks. :)
I'm a tad late on this post but I wanted to thank Naneko85 for the fantastic job she did on the banner I commissioned her to do for me! Seriously turned out exactly how I wanted it to and then some! Go check out her Deviant page below. :)
LORAC is on Hautelook right now for discounted prices anywhere from $2.99 to $27.99. Liptsticks all the way up to a makeup kit box. Go check it out at the link below.
So I was staring at this Eye Booster from Physicians Formula the same time I picked up the Happy Booster Face power, I thought about getting it but didn't because I misread the label and though it was just a serum! The store I went to had been having a sale for buy one get one half off.
Then VintageorTacky mentioned she was using it as an eyeliner and thought "Wait wha?!!" (mad dash back to the super market). Only I found the store no longer had the sale going on... but wth I bought it anyway because I have trouble with normal felt pen liners and most of them are the exact same price as this one if not more.
I have hooded eyes so it's really difficult sometimes to do my liner because it's not all smooth and stuff and the liners sometimes transfer to my crease if they don't dry quick or have good staying power. Normal felt liners or hard tipped ones don't go on smooth for me at all and usually they don't dry quick either so that's a no go for me because I like things quick and easy.
Note: This is the Ultra Black shade
Let's get down to the product:
Quality: I love, love, LOVE this liner, the pen is easy to hold and the brush is actually a BRUSH so it's very easy to work with and goes on smooth as butter. The product dries quickly and stays on without any budging or smudging! (note: this product will not come off easily, I tried wiping/rubbing with my wet finger and it didn't move. I'd suggest an eye makeup remover.) I rubbed over my hand with a wet finger 5-6 times with a fair amount of pressure and it didn't budge!
Price: It was very reasonable for the quality only $9.99 where I got it from, (I also own the MAC Cosmetics Penultimate Eyeliner and it is like $17.50 and I don't find it stays even close to as well as this one and the tip is hard and not as easy to work with.)
Would I purchase again?Heck yeah!!!! This is by far my favorite eyeliner and I know I can put this on and it won't smudge or budge!
I'm not sure about the serum part yet as I've not had it long enough to say anything about that, but I will recommend this eyeliner to anyone who wants a liner that stays on without transferring and is easy to work with!
Disclaimer: I purchased this product myself and this is my honest opinion!
I'm having my March Giveaway as a Facebook giveaway, so please follow the link and check it out. :)
Facebook March Giveaway!!
(This is my first time doing a giveaway on FB so hopefully I posted it right lol)
So I'm completely behind in everything I'm trying to post (thanks wedding planning)! I picked this palette up last week or the week before (I think) lol. Here's a look I did with this one and I have to say for $4.95 I dig these palettes! Wet n Wild is fantastic, the pigmentation is superb! I find myself reaching for these over some of my high end makeup and they stand up to the wear for sure, of course use a primer as with most shadows and you'll have them staying all night. (I even fell asleep wearing this and it still looked great in the morning). I'm definitely going to "collect them all!".
