another astute observation offered by one of my grade twos today - explanation is that i did my liquid eyeliner in the car... fail! never do it.
the look i was trying was the lady gaga telephone video prison scene - i will do it properly (not in a moving vehicle during peak hour) and post photos and instructions another day for you :)
THREE PACKAGES IN ONE DAY! YES!
package number one: the brush guard - variety pack
very cheap, so get on it
it's a net-type case that slides over your brush - so your brushes don't end up with bed-hair in your make-up case!
this is my blush brush (really old Mary Kay one that i love because of its pink bristles)
this is also great because when you wash your brushes, you can stand them bristles-down in a glass so that the water drains off the end of the bristles - you don't want to dry the brush standing up because the water settles and disrupts the glue that holds the bristles together at their base.
package number two: NARS Blush in Orgasm
i'm sure you all know this product very well, but here is a photo of it :)
gorgeous peachy-pink glowy blush colour (lol so i have an alternative to bronzer!)
package number three: Kat Von D (Sephora) True Romance Eye Shadow Palette in Beethoven
total ebay impulse purchase
BUT
now that it has arrived, i do love the colours and am looking forward to showing you how i've used it!
colours from left:
- lucifer
- speed blue
- razor gray
- tequila
- sinner
- rad purple
- leather
- galeano
so far i can see:
- a purple smokey eye using rad purple, sinner, galeano and lucifer
AND
- something using speed blue, razor gray and tequila
wowzers long post... hope you made it all the way through!
thank you for reading!
if you have any suggestions, requests or questions, please comment :)
Love the brush guards! What a great idea. Are you a teacher? Just love the title of this post. ♥
ReplyDeleteI'm in my third year of my education degree, so this was on placement.
ReplyDeleteall finished now though.. almost holidays!
where did you get the NARS stuff from online? was it cheaper than retail? they're so bloody exxy in the shops dammit!! xx
ReplyDeletei got it from a really great seller on ebay - i get heaps of mac and nars stuff from her
ReplyDeleteebay id is: alwaysyouthful
link to her store is: http://stores.shop.ebay.com.au/I-Bare-Escentuals-Mac-md-Proactiv__W0QQ_armrsZ1
i paid fifty dollars for the blush with free postage, i think i retails for sixty-two, so not a bad saving :)
can you include a can of diet coke in your hair for the ladygaga telephone look?!
ReplyDeletedid you find the sandwiches at Early super small though? To be honest I think the viet rolls on Chapel St from N Tran are better.... and $5...
ReplyDeleteEarl is nice, but not enough to make it a regular haunt for a sandwich... :/
Please go to dad man's it's AMAZING.. now that's a regular place.
