EOTD & A New Layout

Hi All!

Weeew it's winter here allright and it brings me in a
holiday mood too!
So, I changed the layout, hope y'all like it!

This weekend I am planning on getting our christmas tree
Last year we did not have one and it really bummed me out lol
So this year I got new xmastree decorations (all silver in retro style)
and new lights (original electric candles from the 60's) so I'm all set

We're celebrating Christmas with good friends, a nice diner and presents (Yay I love presents)
I am looking forward to it!

Anyway, here's what I wore today
Regular base, eyeliner and mascara
Wet n Wild's Pride and Greed palette




And speaking of Wet n Wild, I was eying the incredible
gorgeous LE Holiday palettes
But, alas, they're not available here in the Netherlands
I was very happy to find two of them on Ebay and yes
I paid too much for them ($11 a piece, they retail for $5) but I
figured I use them so much and I'm so happy with the ones
I own, it's worth the cost
I got the Sugar Plum Fairy and the Snow Sprite palette
Check the palettes and swatches at Brilliant Brunette's blog

Now I only have to get my talons on the Golden Godess :-)

Have a great evening or day!

EOTD OMGWTF Jade Ghost & NOTD

Hi All!

Nice name for an EOTD right?
Can't help it thought, that's just the way it is...

Today I wore 2 Fyrinnae colours OMGWTF (perfect chartreuse green) and Jade Ghost
(an iridiscent greenish whitish colour)
I paired it with the 2 purples from the CS Creative Me palette and
I used a nude colour from the Wet N Wild Lust palette for the brow area
Hema e/s base, NYX Jumbopencil in Milk and Pixie Epoxy
Catrice Lashes to Kill mascara





Here are the 2 Fyrinnae sweeties
Left OMGWTF, Right Jade Ghost



The OMGWTF is really in your face chartreuse, as usual, the pics don't
do it justice at all

And here's my makeup 12 hours after applying

Not bad at all I might say

And I did my nails last night
I used OPI's Who The Shrek Are You and Funky Dunkey
Stamped with CG Harmony and Cherish
BM plate 14 and one coat of Seche Vite

Yes, I did the matchy matchy thing

For my US readers
Happy Thanksgiving for you and your loved ones!!

EOTD Faerie Glamour with Lust & Pride

Hi All!

Wednesday already, times does fly...
Yesterday I received my Fyrrinnae order and I am affraid
I've created another addiction.
I ordered 13 sample sizes in jar and I got a free sample as well!
I also ordered the Pixie Epoxy.
All the colours I ordered are in one word amazing.
The site stated ca. 22 business days, but I ordered on October 31st and
my order was shipped on November 11th, it took 12 days to arrive at my doorstep.
And boy, was it worth the wait!

I booked myself some playtime this coming weekend but today I HAD to wear one of
the colours and I chose Faerie Glamour.
It's an Arcane Magic shade, meaning the colour changes depending
how the light hits it.
This has a violet base with an aqua shimmer that changes to a bright pink.

I combined it with some purple and blues from the Wet N Wild Lust and Pride
palettes, usual base (enhanced with Pixie Epoxy, we need to get to know each other better)
and my Catrice mascara.

Here goes...




Apologies for the tiny pics, I used another camerasetting and resized my pics too small :-(


Fearie Glamour with flash

And without


Do you have experience with Fyrrinnae, any colours I MUST have?
Tips for the Pixie Epoxy?

I know I will be ordering from them soon.....lol

A Catrice Haul

Hi All!

Yesterday I went to look at the new Catrice goodies
I came home with 3 eyeshadows, 1 mascara and 2 lipglosses (those were BOGO)

A piccie


I got the Sunny, We Love You (green),
Dalai Drama (orange) and The Violent Violet (purple)
The green is matte, the other two are shimmery/pearly
Have to try them out for real, but I already found out that the pigmention of the orange and
purple are better then the green (which is a little chalky).

I used the mascara and I must say I am quite pleased with it!

After Lisanne's post on Bloggin Beauties regarding crueltyfree makeup
I checked and found my Max Factor mascara would have to go.
I know it's a very little step, but little steps can take you everywhere

The Catrice Lashes to Kill costs €3,99 wich is a steal.
*grins* Lashes to Kill would make a nice horror flick lolz

The glosses are quite nice
I got 090 Nr. 9 is Mine and 100 Sun Kissed

I wore Nr. 9 last night and it lasted quite good.
So far I am impressed with the new goodies and I sure want to try some more of
their stuff.

What do you think of the new Catrice stuff?
Any recommendations?

EOTD Explosion of Colour

Hi All!

I had a very nice evening with my hubby's former colleauges,
great food, lots of talk and laughs, great!

I wanted to wear something really cheerful so I
grabbed my CS Creative Me palette
and Sugarpill's Tako, Midori and Buttercupcake
Regular base and eyeliner
Catrice Lashes to Kill mascara
( I found out my MF Masterpiece is not crueltyfree so I am
looking for alternatives, the Catrice is not bad at all)

Lots of pics..
