IT'S A TRAP

I'm going to meet-up with a member from MUA next week; we're going to be doing a real-life swap - my Boots Highlighting fluid for her Avene Diacneal treatment. I cannot wait and I am ecstatic!

However.. my boyfriend is insisted that the member is actually male. And he's going to be a little rapey.
Hypocrite of a boyfriend - he was rapey when I first met him! (I'm calling you out.)

Also, my account on MUA wasd deleted 10 minutes ago because I made a thread about the worst thing you got in your eye, whether it be makeup-related or not, and another girl said that hers was her man's yoghurt in her eye, I merely replied to it and the whole thread and my account is deleted.

But it's OK, I made another account. Staying low for about two weeks before I go crazy again.

I have the Package Crazies
By the way, I've recieved about 7 packages this month - all MU(makeup)-related.
Yes, my spending habits is out of order and crazy but my Goddamn does it feel good to have something waiting for you to open, it's like Christmas again and again and again and when the post man chaps on the door it scares the shit out of me because by God does he chap loudly. I then contemplate getting out of bed because I'm not sure if it's for me or not..

By the way, I'm expecting four more MU-related packages soon... I'm quite possibly spending about £100 or so a month on MU. I honestly fo srsly gotta stop! I was supposed to be on a low-buy, allowing myself £5 a week to spend or save up.

BUT THEY TEMPTED ME. THEY TEMPTED ME WITH PRETTINESS. THEY TEMPTED ME WITH SHININESS, UNTIL I COULD NO LONGER RESIST!!!

Seriously, wanna see what I'm waiting for?

Alice in Wonderland by Urban Decay eyeshadow palette - £25.20



Sugarpill Pressed Eyeshadow in Buttercupcake and 4-Colour Palette in Sweetheart - £30.50 (that was with £4.50 off from discount)

Sleek palettes in Safari and Curious - £12.50

Wow, look at that bad photoshop cropping skillz.



MUA swap from Sleek palettes Storm and Original and Ink pot in Dominitrix and Espresso (which cost around £13 in total?) for two blushes, one by Prestige, the other by Bourjois, and some Fyrinnae Lip Lustre bundle.

Hmn.... is that all? Oh, and there's a Goddamn Stila sale tomorow morning at 6am. ... Yes, I'm going to set my alarm for it, and yes, I pray I see nothing of interest.


You know, I definitly know now that my Gaming hobby was much less expensive than this damn Makeup shenanigans.

Karma

I hope Karma will be nice to me.. anytime... around now?

Been having a rubbishy start to the New Year tbh (apart from on actual New Year's Eve and New Year spending time with my beloved - great times.) but yeah.. I think Karma's been kicking my ass because of something work-related but meh.

Anyway.. so on MUA a girl caught my attention posting about SpaceNK's 50% sale - especially for Sonia Kashuk brushes! £20 brushes reduced to a mere £4... it was a steal! (Besides.. if I don't like them I can always sell or swap them..)
Though the original poster, poor girl, realised SpaceNK doesn't ship to Ireland and was gutted. :(
So I felt empathetic and sent her a message asking if she wanted me to buy brushes for her as long as I recieved payment back . . .

...Regardless, back to main story: She was quite happy. We made a deal that she'd send me half the payment while the brushes are being delivered to my address, and pay the other half when the brushes are being delivered to her address.

So I have a brush haul and I've got an excited and happy Irish girl's brush haul on the way too.

I don't know, I feel like a Good Samaritan. First good deed of the year. It does feel good though.

Ugh, I really want to go shopping now.



I am that helpful neighbour. :D

Fuschia




Yeah, yeah, yeah. You all realise that I'm totally wanting an awesome fuschia lipstick, right?

What brought on this lemon? (Yes.. I'm calling stuff I want lemons now.. )


THIS BABY;



C'mon.. you must admit -regardless whether or not you like makeup that those lips and its colours are pretty damn gorgeous. Orgasmic I would say. Actually, I think Orgasm would be an awesome name for that lipstick (C'mon, NARS has a blush called 'Deepthroat' AND 'Orgasm' AND 'Super Orgasm' stfu)

So yeah, I've been looking at really bright hot pink/fuschia lipsticks, actually, would you like to see my lipstick colour lemons? Here's a list for you;
  • MAC Show Orchid - Amplified Creme
  • MAC Girl About Town - Amplified Creme
  • MAC Lickable - Cremesheen
  • MAC Angel (or Cremme de la Femme) - Frost
  • MAC Lustering - Glaze
  • MAC Sweetie - Glaze
  • MAC Plumful - Glaze
Swatches of the colour can be found here at; Karlasugar's MAC lipstick swatch

OK, admittedly there's like three other colours I didn't list there but I didn't want to list it anymore :( I mean MAC's lipsticks retails for about £12.50 ($20)
However in the U.S. they retail for $14. (£9!!!!!)

F U UK!!! For over-pricing everything, Goddamnit! But yes.. you can bet I'm waiting for a MAC sale (if it ever happens..) Sad panda. Maybe I can shimmy one or two for my birthday...

Oh, and just thought I'd mention.. there's something about makeup that makes me happy. I don't know why it does, it just does....

FML, and I wrote on MUA that I wouldn't buy MAC lipsticks anymore because they were overpriced and easily dupped - I am such a sucker.

Anyway, going to tidy my room now.. need to make room for my vanity - and do some damn College homwork!!!



Btw, I still am really tempted to buy this; Motorised Walking AT-AT the size of a small cat? Yes please.
