SCORE!

I got some great stuff at the CCO today.

All in all, I only spent $130 (under budget!) and I got:

Mini Lipglass Tasti Set (from holiday a few years ago, I've wanted this forever!)
Blue Storm Pigment
Frost Pigment
Adorn Shimmersouffle (I want more of these!)
Royal Hue Shadestick
Haute Chocolate Lipglass Tasti (but it's too old and it went bad.... ewww. Just for collecting.)
Blue Memory Lipglass
Tartlette Lipglass
Love Nectar Lustreglass
MV5 (Greenify)

And a bottle of Fix+ that she forgot to put in my bag. =(

On my way up to the counter, I saw a Blue jewel-encrusted palette... And I FLIPPED OUT! Because... JEWEL PALETTE = PARROT!!!! But, sadly, it wasn't. It had Black Tied, Idol Eyes, Pink Freeze and a couple of other colors. None were limited edition so I passed. Actually, it was packaged with another palette plus a brush set.

They had the Tailormade palettes, but they were different! I wonder if they were real? I may go back and get them.

I'm definitely going back for the other two Shimmersouffles, a couple limited edition lipglasses and the Creations set (MV1, MV2, MV3).

I'm very pleased with what I got.

And I went to Sephora but they didn't have anything I was looking for. Boo.



I'm going to the Cosmetics Company Outlet tomorrow! Yay!! I hope they have something really good. I'm in the mood for pigments.

I went to the DF&CCO twice last week. Once for me, once to get a couple presents for K.

In all , I got 4 mini Juicy Tubes (Simmer, Miracle, Creamsicle, Sun Bronze), 12 eyeshadows (warm and cool duos and quads) 4 mini Flextencils, 4 sets of eye/face wrinkle treatment (it came with... lol, never too early to start though) 8 Juicy Vernis, Fraichelle gelee, exfoliant and moisturizer, Star Gloss, 2 lipsticks, a huge tote, and Armani Night.

I think I'm gonna go to sephora tomorrow and pick up a few things. They have a Mini professional brush set I was gonna get for K. Cause her makeup sucks and she needs help. Sephora brushes are pretty good too, especially the new line.

What she really needs is some concealer and some Bare Minerals. But I'm not spending THAT much on her. $10 on Lancome and $15 on Sephora is enough for someone who doesn't know how to use it properly. lol I'm such a bitch. But I hate orange foundation, and mascara smudged onto the lid. Ick.

I also got my first CCB in Pearl. Johnnie said it makes the color of Lustre lipsticks pop. And wow, it does. I got Primped Up and Viva Glam V. Also, Courting Rose, Heartthrob and Luxuriate.

Courting Rose = perfect. Too bad it's Limited Edition. GRRRRRRRRRRR. I need to buy a backup.

I broke my spending freeze, but only by a little!

I got:
MAC Euroflash lipstick (from Belle Azure with the bronze package!)
MAC Lipgelee in Who's That Lady

A bunch of Lancome sets from the Lancome outlet. Including 4 mini Juicy Tubes, a bunch of mini Flextencils, some lipstick, 12 eyeshadows and some anti wrinkle treatment... stuff.

And a couple things from Sephora so I could get the deluxe sample set... heh heh heh.

I'm not much of a lipstick girl- a little too old ladyish for me, but I think Euroflash has changed me. After seeing it on Francois, I HAD to have it. Luckily maccosmetics.com still had it in stock, so I ordered that and the cutest of the 3 Limited Edition lipgelees from Who's That Lady.

Euroflash = <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Especially with Who's That Lady? over it. The only other lipstick I've bought that wasn't included in something was Peachstock, after I saw the ever-gorgeous PrettyKitty wearing it. It doesn't look so good on me.

I think it's the Lustre formulation. It's much nicer than Peachstock... which may be a matte? I forget.

So in honor of wearing my new Euroflash, I did a Belle Azure look today. I should have snapped a picture, cause K liked it a lot, but I forgot. Oops.

Goldbit, lid to brow
Leisuretime, crease
Belle Azure, Outer crease blended to lashline
Lucky Green, lower lashline blended to Belle Azure
Shiseido hydrosomethingorother in white as highlight

...and Hundred Degrees pearlizer over Golden on the cheeks.

Very sexy, subtly colorful.

With a new collection (or two... and sometimes three) coming out every month, I never really get a chance to explore and adore the most recent collection. It's sad. As soon as D'Bohemia came out, I was drooling for Belle Azure. As soon as that came out, I was lusting for Rebel Rock... Which, by the way, is hot.

Rebel Rock was totally my kind of collection. Blue Pigment, Anti-Establishment, Say, Yeah!, Living Pink.... So hot. Except Banshee. I haven't even touched Banshee. I hate neutrals. I don't know what to do with it.

Well, I don't hate all neutrals. Naturally Eccentric was amazing. I use both quads at least once a week.

But lately, I've been in a silver mood. I've been using Filament, Anti-Establishment, Little Minx and Nighttrain just about every day this week.. But I've been mixing it up a little every day. Fuschia pigment, Blue pigment, Violet pigment... Ooh... I haven't tried it with Golden Lemon yet. Or Teal, but teal doesn't really work for me.

And now that I have Who's That Lady?, I'm dying to get my hands on Lingerie. *sigh*
