Peach with Purple

I'm using Mac's Expensive Pink e/s, but it seems more peachy gold than pink to me.

Blue and Gold

I love how getting a tan makes your teeth look whiter. I haven't touched a Crest Whitestrip in ages and I drink a ton of coffee. Not that I have yellow teeth, but it's just something I noticed :D.

Estee Lauder High Gloss in Honey...it's such a pretty color but I hate the odd smell-it's like a menthol/mothball combo.

Gold, Green, and Brown

I've been using L'oreal Sublime Bronze Pro Perfect Airbrush self tanner, and I'm not smelling that nasty tanner smell with it so it gets two thumbs up from me.

Neutrals

I went camping this weekend...it was fun even though I'm not an outdoor person at all. I was the helpless moron that didn't know how to build a fire or anything like that :D. I took a pic of where we camped.

And today's makeup...lately I've been sticking to neutrals whenever I feel too lazy to do something nice.

I was tagged by Parisky to do the what's in your purse post...
I switch purses depending on what I wear, but this Coach tote is the last one I carried so it has my stuff in it. It looks small here, but it's actually pretty big.

That's all I carry besides my money, which I always take out when I get home.

Entry for Tali's Contest

Beautiful Tali is having a contest that ends at midnight...I've wanted to do it, but could not come up with any ideas...I'm not too crazy about what I came up with but it'll do I suppose. The look is supposed to be based on a Brothers Grimm fairy tale, with a dark twist added. I was going to do Sleeping Beauty but decided to do something a little more obscure. I picked Jorinde and Joringel...she was turned into a bird and he got stuck somewhere unable to move. Obviously my look is supposed to be her after being turned into a bird...that explains the solemn poor me looks on my face. I used light colors for the eye makeup to keep a 'fairy tale' feel to it.

Should I get bangs?/dark purple

What do you think? And if I should, what kind? I'm pretty sure straight across blunt bangs would look bad on me though. Here's a sort of side view with my hair pulled back...you can see that I have a big forehead.
Photobucket
Moving my part a bit to the side sort of hides it though

And my makeup for the day...I used purple again, but darker than yesterday

Purple

Someone at the store asked if I adopted her. I understand when people assume she's my kid instead of my sister because I was 19 when she was born so I am old enough to be her mom...asking if I adopted her was kinda random though.
Photobucket
I'm starving damnit...I'm supposed to be eating stuff that I don't have to chew. Everything I want to eat requires chewing. I remember not listening when I had my wisdom teeth pulled. I went to Sonic that day and ordered all kinds of stuff. It hurt, but my tummy was happy. So rebellious.

At least I'm not lopsided anymore. The swelling was pretty much completely gone by the evening.

Ouch

I had a loose tooth in the back and had to have it pulled today because the gum area by that tooth was starting to swell. I don't know why though since I take very good care of my teeth...I don't even know if my brother ever brushes his and nothing ever happens to him. Thankfully it's pretty far back so no hillbilly who chewed too much tobacco smile for me. The left side of my face is really swollen though so I'm looking pretty bad.
I put on Bombshell l/s right after I got out so that I would look a little less terrible when picking up my medicine. I bought Physician's Formula mineral tinted moisturizer Saturday and I really like it so far. It doesn't oxidize at all...no orange face at the end of the day. I really like my Boots Botanics tinted moisturizer too, but the color I have only works if I'm wearing self tanner.

$5 earrings I bought Saturday...you can see my facial lopsidedness here

Purdy Msf

I bought Smooth Merge Msf and Way to Love and Bombshell lipsticks. I hate going to makeup counters when my makeup isn't nice...not that my makeup was completely turdlike, but as you can see it was very simple and blah. I didn't plan on going to the Mac Counter, but I ended up just buying 3 shirts and 4 cheapie pairs of earrings so I decided to stop by.

First time curling my hair w/ straightener + pink look

I decided to give it a shot since I was curious about why it's so popular when there are perfectly good curling irons out there. I wish my hair would grow faster...I'm trying to grow my layers out because I haven't had one length hair in ages.

I went light on the eye makeup today...no falsies or eyeshadow. It's nice and sunny today so I took these by the window instead of using flash.

I've had these for months, but I thought I'd swatch them in case any of you haven't tried Ulta's eyeshadows. I really like them; I bought them during a sale so I payed $3.25 a piece I think.
