bad blaaaagger

I haven't done much beauty buying. I've been BORING. Just hitting up the regular spots, seeing friends off to college and also celebrating lots and lots of birthdays! Mine especially. eh! Although it has been boring in my state of mine, it has been really fun. My skin has been looking a bit dull. I can't pin-point the reason, but it may be the late nights i've been putting in. Ugh.

Well lets move to some visuals.
Dinner at bonefish. Whoot! Before dinner I went to King Sauna at palisade, and I must say it's great. Its something you have to go back and try and try again. However it did feel a bit awkward seeing another people and letting them see you bare, but you get over it.

So i must confess, I've been a windows user since i knew computers existed. I am now a mac user all the way. WEEEEE. I absolute love it. It just really works. Windows has alot of clicking and bs, but with mac its just simple as dragging and dropping. I do find it frustrating that some programs don't work well with the mac, but it's programs i could live with out.
I did hit some hurdles while I was purchasing it. I've decided a lot times that I'm getting one. When every I went to the store I would hit a wall. Either they didn't have it in stock or someone will talk me out of the ledge or really bad customer service. It really irks me when i received poor customer services. So the day I got it I got the worst services ever. The BF and I headed to the store and wanted to grab and go. It took us an hour just to get the box. I understand that you have customers and the associates are short handed. As associates you have to know which is a short sell or a BS one.

I'm ranting.

I'm still thinking of a name my new toy. LOL

major august haul

It's AUGUST and well it's also MY MONTH.

So I went over to EDM site and started to browse. I haven't bought the full sizes of the bases. The last order I did was mainly brushes, which I really love. Took advantage of ordering the sample kit 5 months ago. That's where I found my concealer. HONEST, I lived by their concealer. It really does what it's suppose to do. When I went on my trip I was running out. I told myself that I'll set and order ASAP, however, I got back and got a cream concealer from Sonia Kashuk at target. I melted on my skin or perhaps absorbed. So this time I order full sized of the base and the concealer I really like. I also got another sample set. EDM also sent me sample of their eyeshadow ( I forgot what collection it is).



How cute is their packaging. I don't know if they are coincidence but the sample sizes ended up very color coordinate. Pink ones are concealer, blue are the base and blush. I also got two eye shadow brushes, not all that excited about it, but it does the job.



The major haul is really the paul and joe line. I headed over to bergdorf to see their fall collection. I went overboard. >_<. The main purpose of the visit was to get compact foundation, and maybe a lipstick from the fall collection. Which I did get and then some. LOL. So I got primer, the fluid foundation, and another lip gloss. They also gave me a cosmetic bag and some samples of their skincare for the purchase. So my lipstick matches my cosmetic bag. YES! :) I'm one happy camper.


I am absolutely in LOVE with the fluid foundation, especially the fact that I'm more tan now and covers me flawlessly. It doesn't feel cakey no matter how much I pack on. I'm still getting use to using this kind of foundation. When I have the time in the morning, I would spend 5 more mins on "caking" it on my face. Other than that I'm on that compact or the EDM flat! The primer helps alot it makes everything stay PUT!

Till more haulage catch you later.

Goodies <3

I love it when packages comes early!! major love and long awaited haulage :)

food obsession

I've fallen guilty with french macaroons. I absolutely love it. I've known about french macaroon since the big explosion in France. I've just haven't tried them till last week. They aren't the same as the usual macaroons you see with coconut and chocolate topping. French macaroons are meringue mixture cookies smashed together with ganache or buttercream. nice and hard on the outside and chewy inside. HEAVEN!

True to form macaroons. cafe macarons 36th and 7th ave. YUMMMY!!!

I've tried to create it at home, without success. :( I need help.
