So in total you can get 11 entries! Good luck! :) 

By the way, this giveaway is INTERNATIONAL! So anyone can enter! 

Sorry about the crappy picture, I took it when it was already starting to get dark outside, and my phone was the closest camera next to me! 

My second haul from CVS! And my gift card giveaway winner! :)

Hi everyone! I hope everyone had a good new years eve! I went clubbing with a couple of our friends, but it was kind of crappy, because we were suppose to be on guest list, but we ended up not being on guest list. Long story short, my boyfriend ended up paying $160 dollars for two of us. So that was the crappy part. But at least we got to celebrate in style!

My makeup from NYE! I did my own makeup from my tutorial, but I changed a couple things about it. If any of you girls want to see how I did it, just let me know! :) 

Anyway, so I went back to CVS yesterday! Because I didn't realize that some of the Rimmel London lipsticks were on sale. So I picked up a ton of them today! I basically went to 3 different CVS's because there are 3 located in my area, and I wanted to see what else I could pick up! 

I also picked up a couple Revlon lipsticks as well! I basically got backups of almost everything! Because they were so cheap, and I hate it when I buy something and they discontinue it! So of course, I picked up a lot of backups! (I hate buying cosmetics from ebay)

From left to right: Air Fairy, Pink blush, Pink champagne, and passion. (I'm really loving pink blush and air fairy together on my lips! It's the perfect nude pink!)

Pink champagne, and passion up close. 

 Air fairy, and pink blush up close. 

Swatched from left to right: Air Fairy, Pink blush, Pink champagne, and passion. 

I also picked up Rimmel's spotlight beige. It looks like the perfect dark nude color! 

 Up close and personal! 

 I also picked up one of Revlon's matte lipsticks in mauve it over! The packaging looks really nice! 

 Up close. 

 And then I picked up two of Revlon's Colorburst lipsticks! 

Left to right: Liliac and Mauve. 

 And since I've never tried any of Revlon's pearl lipsticks, I only picked up one of twinkled pink. It looks nice, but let's see how it does when applied to my lips. 

 And of course I had no idea that firecracker was on sale! So I had to pick up one of these babies as well! Since I almost have the entire collection, except for pink pop! That's next on my list! :) 

 When I was there, I also picked up a powder. Because as much as I love my P&J powder, it has shimmer, and sometimes, I feel like I don't want shimmer, and sparkle, so I think this powder would be great for my face. They also had one with shimmer, but since I have P&J's already, I didn't see it necessary to pick up one of those. 

 On the back. The only problem, I have with the almay powder, is the bulkiness of the packaging. I wish it were smaller. I didn't realize that I couldn't take the powder out of the box! 

 I also picked up a sally hansen cream blush, for those days, that I want to apply a darker color to my cheeks/lips! 

 Back of the packaging. 

When swatched on my arm. It's actually a lot prettier than the picture below! It's a nice dark pink. I don't know why, but my camera makes the blush look brown! :(

 

I was only able to pick up only one of Rimmel's lipsticks in Pink champagne, there were no other ones left. That makes me kind of sad. :( But it's okay, because I did pick up 5 of Pink blush! I also picked up 3 Air Fairy, and 2 extras of spotlight beige! 

From Revlon, I only picked up one backup, and that was Mauve it over, and the only reason I picked up an extra of that one, was because I hadn't realized I had already bought it from another CVS. Yes, I can get a little makeup crazy! 

Anyway, so what you girls have been waiting for, for the past 3 weeks! (Is it 3 weeks?? I can't remember!!!) My giveaway winner for a giftcard of their choice! So I basically had 158 unique entries, basically from tweeting, to blogging, to facebook! So I went to random.org, and the winner is (drum roll please!):

So yay to fruity lashes! I will be emailing you shortly! :) If you didn't win this time around, don't fret, I will be having another giveaway in the next couple of days!

Hey everyone! Please check out my youtube giveaway! :D

 

By the way, my blogger giveaway is going to be starting this week! So stay tuned for that! I'm still waiting for everything to ship in, so as soon as everything comes in, I will announcing it!

I have a lot more hauls, and review videos coming up soon!

Giveaway winner, and packages

Hi everyone! I want to thank everyone for their concern about the accident! I'm okay, just a little bruised up. Other than that, I'm good. All I've been doing for the past week is go to school, and hang out with my boyfriend. My boyfriend officially doesn't have a car on Thursday, so I won't be seeing him as much... :( But it's okay, since I'm busy with school anyway, I will see him on the weekends.

I'm going to announce the winner of my giveaway! I got a total of 169 entries, and I only can pick one, so I used random.org!
The winner is Leslielovesmakup! Please email me at xbrokenlove@gmail.com in 24 hours, and let me know your address. If not, I will have to pick a new winner.

Anyway, so today I got two packages in. The second package took a little while, but it's okay! But it's okay, because I love everything!

The first package I got was from Jess! She has an ongoing blog sale, and I grabbed three of her lipglosses! I got two chanel glosses and one P&J lipgloss! And she also threw in some awesome samples! Thank you Jess! :)
Chanel gloss, shiseido lipgloss sample, shiseido bio performance sample, P&J lipgloss, and some sensai samples! The second package I recieved today was my skinfood package! I purchased the items off ebay. I don't know if I will ever do business with this person again. It took them a week after I bought my stuff to actually send me an invoice, and then it took another couple of weeks, for me to recieve my items. Anyway, if you guy want to know, the ebay store is OhMyAlice. They actually have a lot of skinfood items, and they are very well priced.
My items! I've already applied both of the skinfood products! They make my skin feel super smooth! Review coming soon!And the week before the accident, I bought a beta fish! I named it Ponyo!
Ponyo is shy! Or maybe he just doesn't want to be in front of the camera!
And by the way, I make bomb potato salad! I throw in a little bit of everything! If you guys want I can post the recipe! By the way, are there any ladies who live in San Francisco/Berekley/Oakland? I'm going to up there with a friend on October 2nd to the 4th. I would love to do a little powwow, or mini meet up! :)

Miss Comfortology giveaway, EOTD, and palettes!

Hi everyone, sorry I haven't started the giveaway yet. I asked my boyfriend what I should do, and he said that he wanted me to do a makeup contest! But I told him, since it was my first giveaway, maybe I should hold off on that, till the next one. And he was looking forward to judging the entries. Hehe. The reason why I haven't started the giveaway is because I haven't gotten everything in yet. I am expecting to get everything in by next week or so. So please be patient with me!

So this was my EOTD (eye of the day) from this past weekend. I was messing around with purple colors, and my 120 count palette, and I came up with this look!
I also got in the mail this week, a couple palettes that I ordered. This is the Esprique precious palette in T-5.
My two other palettes, the Kesalan Patharan and the RMK palette. The Kesalan Patharan palette colors. I haven't had the chance to do a look with these palettes today yet. I will probably do it tomorrow. The thing that sucks about these palettes, is that they don't come with applicators. :(The RMK palette. Isn't it beautiful??!!
And that is about it! Please join my giveaway on my other blog if you have time! And I will be posting tomorrow, because I have tomorrow off from work! And I'm trying to read everyone's blog! I might not comment every blog, but I do read them! It's hard work, I tell you! :)
