Hello,
For those who think I am actually gotten up early today and writing a blog at 6:55 am you are so sweetenly mistaken. I haven't gone to bed. FOund out some awful news and it's stressing me out quite a bit so i can't seem to fall asleep. And this is terrible considering I usually have a hard time falling asleep the pass week. I hope my stress level will die down soon. I hate bad news they cause your whole day event to turn negative. *finger cross for something good to happen*

Summer Summer Summer
Hello all!
Sorry I been lacking on the blog lately, I came home about two weeks ago and ever since I've been out to see friend and run errands. I plan to take some class in the summer so I have to go register and do paperwork and get transcript and whatnot. Everything is just so hectic and I'm such a scatter brain. I have the procrastination gene in me which only make it worst.
But over the last couple of months i've always contemplate between whether I should start my own youtube channel or not. I've been watching youtube guru for about a year now and I like the idea of being able to share your passion for makeup world wide. I know i've gotten many tips on how to do my makeup from them and I like to be able to share some of my tips to other out there. I remember starting out a year ago and how my little venture into makeup went about.
I actually recorded a video today although I think im going to recorded another one as i finish this blog since I dont like the way it turn out. Here's to hoping that i'll be brave enough to put it up on youtube!

Hope you all are doing the same.

F.I.N.A.L.S
Guys,
I'm sure in high school or college you know the most stressful time comes when you are dealing with FINALS. And in college it only get worst, my under circle have never been this bad and i've never been so sleep deprive in my life. Currently I'm taking a ten minute break from studying for my biology test tomoroow at 8 am to write a blog post. I've read somewhere in a magazine that you need to allow your brain a tiny bit of break time in between every couple of hours when your are studying. I forgot the scientific reasons behind this, but I figure after cramming and trying to relearn and remember everything you been taught the whole semester you need to allow a break time for your brain to process right?
Anyway do you guys watch grey anatomy's? I am a big fan of that show! It's so dramatic, and right now I wish I have lexie gray gift, PHOTOGRAPHIC MEMORY! That would come so handy for my test tomorrow and basically my major! HAHA!
I'm just rambling now basically so lets see random fact:
1. along with the mac eyeshadow pallete i got a mac blush palette and bought the first mac blush-well dressed
2. i cant wait for final to be over, which will be next tuesday may 10!
3. i suck at studying because i get distracted so easily, to the point where I have to turn off my internet and phone!
Alright only a couple minutes left of my peaceful break, hope those of you out there also having finals DO WELL!
Good luck to all my other finals suffering buddies! (LOL)

First Mac Palette
Hi GUYS!!
IM AM SUPER EXCITED! after months and months of comteplation I've finally got the guts to order my self a 15 slot mac pro palette. I keep putting this off at first because the thought of buying 15 eyeshadows from mac sounds daunting and expensive. And I travel a lot so i like to have option with me and I prefer my makeup bag to have a palette of eyeshadows. But with mac I'd have to go and choose the color and being the indecisive and picky person that I am the task seem too daunting. So instead each time I'd decided to get ready made palette from other brand. I have a bunch of palette from:Lancome, Kat von Di?, and little random nic nack I put up over the years but I finally decide to make myself a palette today. It was a random moment of inspirations. I order the palette along with three eyeshadow: Phloof!, Sable, and Satin Taupe. The currently I own another couple of eyeshadow I bought on random visit to the mac counter. Now the challange is to fill it up, and one of the reason why it took me so long to decide to get it or not was because I hate to leave thing unfinished, but at the same time I'm LAZY! (lol). Therefore I now wonder when this palette will be done. I'm excited to show you guys how it'll turn out.

Foundation List
Happy Sunday!
At 2 am on a sunday I decide to make a foundation wish list! Currently I cannot justify or condone myself to buy new foundation because I still have a bunch of the one I bought a couple of months ago and you all know foundation can last up to year and if you alternate between different type it take ages to every truly finish one. I currently own and use Nars Sheer Glow foundation, Makeup Forever HD, Lancome Teint (Natural?) and a Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer. So you see I have plenty of foundation and seeing that I still have at least half of every time left I don't have the heart (or the wallet) to buy more!
With that in mind, I figured a wish list is something I CAN DO! (LOL!) so here's the order of want I want to try most to average:
Foundation:
1. Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua Light SPF 15- $45
2. Dior Nude Hydrating GLow Makeup SPF 10- $46
3. Makeup Forever Matte Velvet- $34
4. Bobbi Brown Natural Finish Long Lasting SPF 15- $45
Concealer:
1. Dior Sculpt Concealer- $34
2. Chanel Lift Lumiere Concealer - $45
EyeShadow:
NARS:
1. Duo in Kalahari
2. Duo in Charade
3. Duo in Kuala Lampur
4. Duo in Silk Road
5. Duo in Elsa
MAC:
1. Satin Tuape
2. Woodwink
3. Phloof
If anyone of your guy try these already let me know how it is! Like I claim above, SHARING IS SEXY! hah!

Conceal Conceal Conceal!
Hi guys,
Sorry for the late post! I been so busy and lazy the past couple of week. But at last I've master up the motivation to do a review about the new conceal and foundation I've been using. Being a college student really bring out the sleep deprivation out of you.
I probably see the sun rise about 3 time a weeks. There fore I was on the hunt for a new concealer with better coverage. The old one i used to use was the "MAC MOISTURE SELECT". I had it in the shade NC 25 for under eye purposes. I love, love, love that concealer. Sadly with my new sleeping schedule, I could no longer hold the load for my rapidly approaching raccoon eyes.
Then here came the BOBBI BROWN concealer to my rescue. Overall I would say this is a medium to full coverage concealer compare to the MAC which was sheer to medium. The concealer formula does move around a bit, which I like because I usually apply mine with a sigma 224 brush and buff it in. I find that because it not too dry of a formula I can really blend it seamlessly into my under eye area. I do reccommend you put on some eye cream before even putting on the concealer because it make the blending so much more easy and effortless. The powder that come with the kit I bought is quite handy, and through out the day I find the concealer for the most part stay in place and doesn't travel and settle into the lines under my eye!! Because I wear glasses it sometime have little smudge mark but that can't be avoided for glasses nerd like me! I would give this concealer kit an A!
To apply:
1. Apply the corrector first (usually pink/salmon tone) and is the smaller compact.
2. Apply the concealer on from the larger dual compact.
3. Lightly brush on some of the pale yellow powder to set the concealer.
4. LOOK ABSOLUTELY STUNNING.
Next is the foundation I been testing out for quite some time. I've jump on the band wagon for NARS cosmetic. After lots of research and youtube videos I've settle into buying the NARS SHEER GLOW. I love it, I think it's worth every penny. It light and cover well and best of all doesn't break me out! I have oily skin and they're super sensitive so I'm always cautious about trying new foundation. But this pass the test. I usually apply this with the sigma 188 brush for an air brush look. It's completely natural looking and last a decent amount of hours through the day. It feels super nice on my skin, I don't feel like I have a mask on and a plus for me is that the foundation is fragrance free!
And last but not last I'd like to share my new frivilous buy TWEETY -this made my day better just having this around :)
Happy Easter Guys!
