Shopping Outfit

I've felt kinda sick the past few days...maybe shopping will make me feel better.

Gave Myself Long Bangs

I just cut them below nose length so that they're still long enough to pull back, and they'll grow out quickly if I decide I hate them. I thought this would cure my boredom with my appearance, but sadly it didn't.

I don't think my sister's made an appearance on this blog for a while.

My brother was so offended yesterday because someone asked about my "older brother". I let the person know that he's 15 and I'm 22 and she gave me this look of disbelief. He was pissed, but I thought it was hilarious considering I think he looks like an overgrown 9 year old.

Bollywood Inspired Gold and Maroon

I got the inspiration from Madhuri Dixit's eyeshadow in this song...Maar Dala from Devdas. You can get a good view of her eyeshadow at about 8 seconds in...looks to me like a gold lid with reddish/maroon crease. I know Bollywood movies feature all sorts of makeup styles (just like any other film industry), but since the inspiration came from a Bollywood film I included it in the title.

Didn't really get good pics of it

Outfit + fotd

Just going to the movies tonight...seeing Love Aaj Kal. Bollywood movies never play in my area and all these years I've had to wait and buy them on DVD so I'm not missing this opportunity to see one on the big screen.

I've posted outfits with the jacket, leggings, and shoes before but oh well. The shorts and shirt are several years old. I really wish these leggings had seams down the back instead of the side.

Got my bumpit in of course :D

Sparkly Nails + Face Makeup Routine

My face routine changes every now and then...most of the time I just use powder but this routine gives me the best result. I forgot to mention that I sometimes pat a little extra brightening balm under my eyes. I have more of a problem with puffiness rather than dark circles so I use that in place of concealer.

And sparkly nails...just black polish with Pure Ice's Spit Fire over it.

Hard Candy + Bumpit (My new Best Friend)

Obviously I don't do many review/haul posts, but I really was impressed with the Hard Candy stuff I picked up from Walmart. The lipsticks are fantastic...so pigmented, but smooth and creamy too. The blushes are also very nice. Here's my review video.


Now onto my new love...I was skeptical about the bumpit because I never fall for 'as seen on tv' stuff. Except for the Snuggie; I have these sexy things in every color(kidding).

Obviously I love big hair, but I'm too lazy to tease little sections of my hair all the time. Thanks to this wonderful bit of hard plastic I can have quick and easy big hair every day(yes I plan on wearing this every single day :D).
I used the medium one today...this morning I had it a little far back so the bump isn't that tall from the front. Plus a look at my under 5 minute face--powder, liner, mascara, tinted lip balm

Later on I put it more towards the front so it would look taller. My makeup is different because I made a tutorial, but didn't upload it because I need to redo it. The video was too dark.
Please excuse the bra straps...I'm a sloppy dresser if I'm lounging around the house

Terminator?

My brother says I look like the Terminator with my jacket and shoes. Hopefully I'm at least a tiny bit prettier than Mr. Schwarzenegger.

Made a tutorial, it's just a shimmery brown look.
