Secondary Quest Haul

So I know its been awhile since the last time that I posted about such things ut I though I'd add a new post about my questing ^.^ I'm sure you all remember my quest for Sugarpill Cosmetics and some of their beautiful eyeshadows.....well they came in awhile back and I would like to show you some pictures I took of them as I got them.....and soon I'll share with you some pictures of me wearing it ^.^

So lets get onto some nice pictures......this here is the packaging that it came into......


And this is what it looked like when I opened the package ^.^


Now the big box is my pallet, the small box is my pressed powders and the three boxes are the loose powders......


This here is the burning heart palet with buttercup, flamepoint, love+ and poison plum......


Here is the bulletproof eyeshadow (which I broke today sadly enough.....)




Here are the three loose shadows I got.....Goldilux, Lumi and Absinthe.......


And I got a little sample of Birthday Girl......



And I got a sticker and some cards and such......with the package and I super love them ^.^

Day to Day: update and rant about friendship

Heya all you lovely people......I know I've been rather absent from here and I do mean to get back into this starting with this post ^.^ But still feel the need to update everyone......

So I've managed to make my rent for the last two months on some much appreciated help from friends and all my savings. And I've managed to get caught up in my bills. My next step is to collect all needed information and proof and take my ex roommate and ex best friend to court for all the money she owes me. It pains me to do this but she left me no choice.....she wouldn't talk to me about it like an adult and ran with her stuff while I was at work......

Other then that I have new roommates and they are pretty cool. They like to chill and such and I enjoy their company......And I might be moving when they move out too with another new friend that I think is much too trusting much like myself......that being said here is the promised rant:

What kind of 'friend' leaves a friend that has lent them money to move outta their mothers house because they were going crazy and doesn't make them pay anything but rent when they're living with them without a notice? A bad friend and a user.....I hate when people think that they are entitled to everything that you have because your friends and you were nice enough to lend them things every now and then. And its a good sign that someone isn't grown up enough to deal with normal day to day life situations let alone adult situations.....someone that shouldn't be living outside their mothers house because they don't have the maturity to do so. And someone that shouldn't be trusted when they say they're your best friend because they're a user. Thats the only thing that could explain it......

I feel like if you have friends that are willing to be there and help you out. Ones that lend you money no questions asked. Or that are there when you need a shoulder to cry on then you should feel lucky. Because a lot of kids out there now like to say they're your friend and then when push comes to shove they flake because things are too intense. Friends are there through the thick and the thin and can't be replaced.....all the others are just acquaintances.....people that its fun to chill with but not to count on. So cherish those real friends that you have because there aren't too many out there.

Day to Day BullS***

So I was wanting to write up a post basically just to explain why I haven't been posting too much......

As of about two weeks ago my ex roommate (and ex best friend) came home while I was at work and took all her stuff with her. Coming home to that wasn't fun but neither was having to ask her when she was gonna pay rent this month. Because what I got back was basically that she wasn't and it wasn't her problem anymore.......

So now I'm taking her to court for all the money she owes me. And have been spending the last week trying to get some assistance from churches for my rent. Which is now late. Anyway.....thats kinda what I've been doing and why there are no posts........

And its just getting worse. I got sent home yesterday and can't go back to work till Monday when boss man comes back.......So I'll be spending this week trying to make some sort of money. Just to make next months rent. And I'll try to catch up on my blog when I'm not doing other things.....

Thanx as always for reading.......

Questing......the secondary quest finished

So I finished my secondary quest first lol ^.^ But it was a cheaper quest so that makes sense......anyway so this is the Sugarpill Cosmetics Facebook and they are pretty awesome!!!! The majority of their make-up is vegan and highly pigmented. And they are constantly posting videos and blogs on how to do different make up tips so I would recommend adding them ^.^

Now I've ordered first the Burning Heart Palette with Love +, Buttercup, Poison Plum and Flamepoint. And seeing as I love dark colors and warm colors this would of course be my favorite pallet. Then I also got three loose eyeshadows (Absinthe Loose EyeshadowGoldilux Loose Eyeshadow, and Lumi Loose Eyeshadow) and a pressed eyeshadow (Bulletproof Pressed Eyeshadow).

Anyway, I ordered this the other day, here are the screen shot:


And I'm super excited about it.......when I get it in the mail I'll put up a picture of all of it and then try something with it too ^.^ Maybe something with the gold.....super excited about that!! 

Anyway thanx for reading as always ^.^

Photoshoot: Light Play with Tammie Harris

So about a week ago I got to shoot with Tammie Harris again who happens to be one of my favorite local photographers........she's super easy to work with and always has an interesting idea or two to try. Well this time was no different......

She wanted to try light painting/play. Which for those of you that aren't familiar with this term (much like I wasn't when she told me at first) its where a model gets to sit really still while the photographer goes around them a bunch of times with different colored lights. It works because they leave the shutter open and it catches all the light without taking the picture........And its hard to sit still that long but have a look at a couple of the images we were able to achieve that day ^.^





We got mixed results depending on how still I could sit.......and when we played with movement it was even more interesting. But I think things turned out pretty cool ^.^

As always thanx for reading ^.^

Book Review: Halloween by Silver Ravenwolf


So this book was on my reading list because I thought it might help me with my research.......and in a way it does.....it helps me get into the minds of those I'm trying to but to tell you the truth I don't ever much like her 
books. This one takes you through a quick history of Halloween which works well into my research and will be something that I have to work on more later......but she does it in such as way as to pretend she speaks only to children. Or its just rather silly and not at all to my taste.

Once out of that she works her way through superstitions and different ghouls and ghosties......but its still all rather silly. And then all her spells are geared towards Halloween so expect certain themes in them.

The part I liked most about this book I have to say is the end. Where she does a little to speak to people of not fearing the dead and ways to speak to those loved ones you lost. Which I feel is something more people should do in these times........and the guest section. Which gave a nice it of information about the lifestyles of modern woman who practice.........

Now on a whole there is good information in this book......but if your one that wants their information in a serious tone then I recommend that you don't read this book as much of it is spent in rather silly ideas (Broomstick Flights......like they have an in flight movie).

As always thanks for reading ^.^

Delivery: Purrfect Pineapples Lingerie......ie Corset

So I just ordered this like last week and its already here. Helps that they are in Portland.....Just a hop jump and a skip away ^.^ But before I get into pictures of the wonderful things that I got look at this cute tape they used on the wrapping.......loving this already ^.^!!!


Anyway onto the actual information......So Purrfect Pineapples (Facebook and Etsy) had their Baby Blue Red Deer Underbust Corset on sale for only $165 and because I was friends with them on Facebook I managed to collect a coupon code for 25% off too......making it like $131 shipped.......score right?

Well I didn't use the coupon code right so it still went through for $171. Sad day for sure. But being the awesome person that she is Erika let me pick $40 in other things to make up the difference. So I got two corset belts for it too........now onto some pictures ^.^

 This was one of the first things that I saw when opening the package. And considering that they make only vegan clothing I'm assuming that they are vegan ^.^ Its a rather informative brochure. Maybe I'll try to be vegetarian? Or not? I'll figure it out.
 This is the second group of things I saw. Two of them are like post cards which I just might get mounted and then hang in my room or something.......the other is a sticker......I'm thinking about putting it on my binder!!


And the last thing was this personalized thank you on the cutest paper......I like when they send personalized thank yous.....makes me feel a lot more appreciated!!!



Now this is the first pair of pics for the garter belts. This being the green one. It has black lace front paneling. The sides are pink hearts on green fabric. Little pink bows with heart jeweled pieces. And tons of ribbon........I rather much like the attention to detail!! (click pictures to make them larger)


 This is the second set of garters. Its pretty much the same as the first set only a dark purple ^.^ which is my favorite color. This and the other one were on sale in their blog sale for $20 which is nice ^.^ (click picture for larger image)


The last two pictures here are the corset itself......Its beautiful!!!Notice the detail. the lace along different seems and the elk right there in the middle of ya ^.^ And the lacing matches to a T which is hard to do.....



Anyway that all being said I must now let you know that I love this......I feel like its Christmas in August!!! And can't wait till I find a reason to wear it all (more then likely a shoot ^.^) and then I'll have more pictures up for everyone.........And if you love lingerie then add them on Facebook. At least if you can't afford it you can look at some pretty pictures of lingerie......and you never know.....they have some awesome blog sales!!!

Oh and look for other quests for them......I would like the whole set to this corset that includes a bra, panties and garter!!!!

Thanx as always for reading.........

Book Review: The Science of Vampires

For those of you that are into vampires but not into more then their fictional stories this is not the book for you. For those of you that have questions about the possibility of vampires and such then you might like this book.

I read this book mainly for research purposes but must say I enjoy it. It covers every aspect of vampires starting with how the myths might of began through purely scientific explanations (like did you know that some bodies may look like they were buried yesterday but be over 100 years in the ground?). It goes through the changes that happen in the body to become a vampire and once again scientific ways in which those changes might occur. It delves into the psyche of the vampire and those who believe themselves to be vampires (including many well known serial killers). And concludes itself in the many different magical aspects of a vampire that does have human counterparts........such as necromancy.


Now would I say that everyone read this book......no. But if you like scientific things or just knowledge or if your very much into vampires and would like to know more about them in a modern sense then by all means dive right in. It a short book of about 255 pages and a relatively light/easy read.

This is book/movie review number 3 (basically research #3) for me and I have to say things are fitting together a little better then I thought. Any idea as to what I might be reaserching? Or to what means?

As always thanx for reading.........

To Be Published.......Is Amazing (fist publication)

I have been talking about this for awhile for those of you that are friends with me on Facebook and if not I might of mentioned it somewhere......either way I'm mentioning it now.......I've been published!!!!

Now Giuseppina Magazine (check em out here) is on their seventh issue and this happens to also be their Gay Pride Issue. So I thought it would be an awesome time to put into effect an idea of mine about the day of silence.  Basically it was a lingerie shoot with six girls based on the fact that so many gay or lesbians are forced to keep quite about their sexuality.......and by the time we were done it ended up showing two other things. First that if all these girls were to say they were gay then you can see how different we all are in appearance as well as personality and background. And second that if they all aren't how can you tell which of us is?

Now I was all hopes that we would be published. And when I was told that I was being published I was way excited but I did have to wait for it to be published before showing any of the images. And now I'm just waiting for the cash to order myself a print copy. Now that is a little weird but they are an independant and small magazine just now starting so I didn't expect them to be able to send everyone a print copy.......anyway enjoy ^.^

Thanks as always for reading......^.^

And you can order a copy HERE if you would like

Movie Review: Doomsday

Doomsday is not one of the films in the pattern ^.^ but something I felt like watching so I figured I'd do a review. This movie happens to be one of my favorites. It starts with a very dramatic scene where soldiers  
mow down civilians, one of which has an infection that they are trying to contain, and in the process shoot a little girl in the eye. They shut and weld the doors to the gate close on the citizens. The mother of the little girl manages to get her onto a helicopter with the soldiers.

Years later it picks up where the little girl as a soldier. And the virus is back. They notice survivors in the containment area and they set up an expedition out there to find a survivor that might have a cure running through their veins.

As they start their journey you notice a few things. There are numbers on doors to show how many were inside needing rescue that never came. As they explore a lab not too far in you get your first taste of those who have survived. A girl wanders up to distract which a whole group comes up on them. Carrying weapons that are something of medieval mixed with apocalyptic........and action ensues as the throw fire bombs on the escaping vehicles. And the girl decoy turned killer......the two vehicles that they bring with them quickly are taken out. And an alleyway battle ensues. As does their capture.....

Enter now into the world of the survivors. Watch the fire dancers spin what looks like electrical sparks. And the girls dace. Watch as their leader dances about on stage. To an adoring crowd. And then watch as they
cook those they captured alive for their feast. A disgusting feat of cannibalism but something to say about what one has to do when put in such a situation. Though no more messed up then having been the ones that put them in that situation.

After the feast the main character escapes and take with her one of the hostages. Surely meant for their next feast. But not before a little girl on girl fighting. And they make their get away through the train station.........while followed by some pretty cool looking vehicles.

Change from the city to a trek through the woods things don't get any better. They turn into something reminisce of the medieval time. Complete with a king and king's executioner.......

As they talk you get a flash back to the city where the virus runs rampant. A rouge gets into the building before they shut it off. He gets it all the way to the top and gets shot in time to infect the owner.....person that runs the city......who then shoots himself. Preferring to die then suffer from the disease.......

The survivors are slated to be killed but by this medieval civilization. But once again they managed to get away.....finding the store house and in it one of the prettiest cars they could of in such a place. And they make their escape.....one less person. And in comes our much needed car chase ^.^ I for one am always down for a good car chase. And these cannibals do know how to make a cool post apocalyptic car....or a whole host of them.

The ending of this movie movie while touching leaves much to be desired for my liking. I understand the idea of it and everything but I would like a little more explanation about what happens. But that is always the way of it......now if your one for action movies then I would say that this is a nice one to watch. But don't watch with people that talk or you'll never understand anything ^.^

As always thanx for reading ^.^

Book Review: The Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice

So I thought I'd start doing reviews on books I read (which are many) and the movies I watch (this number is quite larger)......just as a means of showing y'all what I'm up to when I'm not doing exciting things.......and to see if y'all can maybe pick up a pattern in my reading habits right now.......

So to start it off I just finished the Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice. And it looks rather a lot like this book here. As in all three come in one book. So I can review them together.

The first being Interview with a Vampire. Now reading this was very interesting because I've watched the movie as many of you have, I'm sure. Now while reading it I notice the small (and not so small changes) made in plot between the two.......for those of you that have neither read the book nor watched the move I'll give a quick over view......This novel follows Louis de Point du Lac as he tells his story to David, a reporter. Now early on in the story Louis is changed into a vampire by Lestat and they continue to live a normal life (all be it a tortured one for the novels main character as he still seems to live under the rule of morality and to all intents has a soul). Until sometime when Louis wants to leave Lestat. Enter Claudia, Lestat's way of keeping Louis around until the fateful day that Louis and Claudia escape together in search of other like themselves. Finally settling in Paris they are to find their first sign of other vampires at the Theatre de Vampires. And this story starts to unwind as Claudia is put to death with her new fledgling mother (made for her by Louis). Louis takes his revenge on the theater and leaves with Armand (the man who ran the theater) to travel for years before returning to New Orleans where it all started to see Lestat. And that leads up to his story being told to the reporter. A story that falls on dead ears............

The second book is The Vampire Lestat, now a rock star it is his self titled autobiography. It follows a younger Lestat de Lioncourt from being the son of a lower nobility to him running away to live in Paris with a childhood friend to be an actor. Where a vampire seeks him out to be made into what he is. To make a child to follow him before throwing himself onto the fire. Lestat finds he has inherited the tower as well as a large sum of money which he uses to make life comfortable for those he loves. I'm gonna rather shorten the amount of information that was in that book down but here is what is important......he makes his mother and friend into vampires to keep him company. And once they are gone he wanders alone until the day his friend dies. He buries himself in the earth at the time till one of the old ones comes to get him. Marius comes to get him and introduces him to The Ones Who Must Be Kept. And tell him all his secrets making him swear never to tell anyone and telling him to live a normal life with his dad in New Orleans. Where him, Louis and Claudia live for well over 70 years. Then the tragedies happen and he goes into the earth again to rise in the 80's. He becomes a rock star and author to tell all the stories of vampires to human kind. To cause a war. And it all ends right after his rock show.......

The last book in this series is The Queen of the Damned. This one is a lot harder to explain. Akasha one of Those Who Must Be Kept wakes finally to the world. The first part is a bunch of stories from different vampires and humans about vampires being burnt to death without being touched and all the coven houses going down. Once you get to it not being a bunch of different points of view there are really only two. When you are with Lestat as he and Akasha demolish all the men in small cities for Akasha's dream. Or with the group of those vampires that Lestat loves or that are too strong to be easily destroyed where you learn the beginnings of Akasha and the story of the twins. It all ends in them being well alive and Akasha being very much dead. But its an interesting journey.

Now while I know that in itself was a lot to read I have a little more to say about this series. Anne Rice gives us many new ideas to think of about the vampire when it comes to the differences between them and Dracula, or the average vampire. Many new powers and ideas.......and while the first book is an easy read the second two are rather longer and a little harder to read. Might just of been the type on mine but I felt like we were trying to crunch two books in one with each.......But I would recommend that anyone that is interested should read them given that they have read her stuff before and know what they are getting themselves into.....

Well as always lovelies thanx for reading.....

PS as a side note....in her recent relapse into religion Anne Rice now states that she did not write these books lol

Love and Lingerie: Baby Blue with Red Deer Steel Boned Underbust Corset

So as of today I've noticed something that I thought would be super awesome. The Baby Blue with Red Deer Steel Boned Underbust Corset by Purrfect Pineapples (Facebook - Etsy - Webpage) has been up on their etsy page for $195 for over a month now. And I've been waiting to get some extra money in order to get it......

There have been two times that they have put up coupon codes for 25% off but I just didn't have the money. But now I have the money.....I think. But whats better is that its been marked down from $195 to $165 and there is a coupon code till Sunday that will get me 25% off......making it about $123.75 and then shipping.

Now I have $50 of that set away in a jar that I've been saving up to buy something off etsy with. And I know it doesn't make sense but I think I am saving up for like 20 different things right now. And I have a certain way I get money for all those different jars.......

Now thats $50 out of $123.75 or a 40.4% but it ends on Sunday so what I think I'm gonna do is grab this with money from my savings account and continue saving the rest up to replace it into my savings account......oh and check out what it looks like ^.^ I'll be ordering it tonight or tomorrow and can't wait.


And as always thanx for reading ^.^

Questing.....the secondary quest

Now onto my secondary quest.......Sugarpill cosmetics. The colors I'm looking at are - Burning Heart Palette (Flamepoint, Buttercup, Love+ and Poison Plum); Tako; Lumi; Absinthe; and Bulletpoof. And like I said I am thinking about changing Tako to another color for my second order..........




Anyway......I still haven't picked the color to replace it. So it'll remain till I do. As of today I have $54 of the $82 I need for a wonderful 65.9%. And about $28 more to come by. This one is coming along as a rather quicker pace then the other quest was but its also quite a bit cheaper. 

As always thanx for reading ^.^

Questing.....Progression of the Victorian Skirt

So I know it looks like this is the only thing that I post about but my days as of late have been full of self sustaining things......not much to post about but I have a list of things to post about today and here is the first.....


So at present time I have $107.16 out of the $155 needed for a 69.1% completion. And I see if coming along so well. Its nice though. I only have $47.84 left to go.......meaning I could have it done within the next month or two ^.^ And I'm so excited!!! Then its onto a new piece of clothing to quest for.

Thanks as always for reading ^.^ And any donations would be much appreciated.......

Questing.....start of a secondary quest (Sugarpill)

So as I have this system of doing my money so that it is spread around a bit I decided that I would add a secondary quest here so that everyone can watch them too ^.^ I have like ten going on right now but I'll just add this second one for now as more then that might get a little confusing........\

And here is what I'm questing..........


Its the Burning Heart Palette by Sugarpill Cosmetics (Facebook link) which will run me about $34 with a $5 shipping. Now with this palette comes the colors Flamepoint (orange), Buttercup (yellow), Love + (red) and Poison Plum (purple). Now I must admit that this is my ideal palette here as I'm one for bright yet deeper colors. And I love red no matter where ya find it. But I have been thinking that I might do something else entirely.......

Because when you buy $75 worth of products from them then you get free shipping and I am sure that I have well over $75 worth of colors that I want.......so this quest is gonna be for that.......and here are the others I would love to get as well......if stock permits.......


This first one is called Tako and its a pressed powder. Runs about $12


This would be Lumi and its a loose powder. It runs $12 as well.


This wonderful color is called Absinthe in a loose power showing the wonderful packaging...runs $12 also


And last is a wonderful matte black called Bulletproof running $12 as well.......

Seeing as this would add up to $82 I think that I would get free shipping lol.......there might be one change later on for I think I might trade Tako out for another color and go for the Sweetheart Pallette which includes Tako......if so I'll put that in the next update......

Here is how the monies are working out though......as of today I have $32 towards this purchase out of $82 putting me at 39% of this one completed......already pretty decently on my way ^.^

Now I'm sure you might be wondering if this will effect my other quest. But with the aforementioned system any money towrds this quest will actually be a different piece of pie when it comes to the graph of my extra monies......so it won't affect my other quest at all ^.^  And you never know which one will end up being done first ^.^

Questing......progress on the Victorian Skirt part 3

So I haven't been updating on much and seeing as I've made a decent amount of progress on this I thought it might be a good idea to update it ^.^

For those new to my blog (and that haven't read back in my blogs ^.^) I'll give this a new introduction......I'm trying to save up for this outfit:


Well more importantly I'm saving up for the beautiful skirt part of this outfit......easily the most expensive part too.....

Now on to the important facts......so far I've managed to save up $82.64 out of the $155 that I need for the skirt.......bringing my percentage up to 53.3% which is well over half way to me.......I can see this falling into my grasps now!! How lovely it will be to get this in the mail one day soon.......or at least I'm hoping to ^.^

Now as always thanx for reading my friends ^.^

Day to Day: Case of the Hermiting Model

So I've been in a bit of a hermiting mood......for the last two weeks and I apologize to all those who read my blog and have been missing it......so here is a little bit of an update on me ^.^

Before i went into hiding I spent a week like this - I was organising a shoot for a magazine which included getting everyone there (5 models a photographer and myself) with all the right gear (color coded lingerie for the models and camers/lighting for the photographer); added to the above I made all the accessories for the shoot (2 to 4 bows per model and a collar); and had a dentist appointment. This was all on top of my normal things like working and the forty minutes walking back and forth to work. And keeping the house clean and doing all my on line sights and so forth........and I was tired so I took a break ^.^

Now this is what a hermiting model such as myself does when they hermit. This has been my last two to three weeks........

I spent a weekend with my family pretty much not doing anything too productive. The first day I spent all day watching shows on couponing and learned things on line about how to do it. The second day I did some more couponing and then went with them to the car show for a little while. And the third day i spent most the day making little bows (the sewing parts anyway).

The following week was spent mainly at work. I had my mom picking me up in the mornings to go with her to the college to print coupons. And then I would go to work and clip them out. I did get money in the mail from having done back taxes so I wrote up a little bit of my questing things.....or at least I wrote it down.

Last weekend I tried to get through as many of the movies in our house as I could and did a little cleaning. Followed by a more couponing that week....a quick store trip to try out couponing. And then a week of going into the college some more with my mom and re-reading of the Harry Potter series since the last movie is coming out soon (or has come out?).

Now I'm back to the real world.....got myself caught up somewhat on my on line things. And am working on a lot of things........

1) trying to get a bunch of things up and in my etsy account before the magazine goes out so that people will see something in my shop.....

2) starting on the creative aspect of two sets I wanna do for shoots......these will include more then one model and quite a bit of artistic ness.....so keep an eye open

3) trying to get some clothing put together so that I know I can do well at making clothes.....I don't think that I'll have trouble I just always second guess myself

4) planning a quick trip to Portland this month......

5)starting a third blog about couponing to help local katz if your interested I should have it up by tomorrow evening.....showing coupons how to use them to get super cheap things and freebies ^.^

And much much more.......but now I'm gonna go get dressed up to head to the bar to celebrate that my roomie finally turned 21 ^.^ As always thanx for reading and I'll catch all you kool katz later ^.^

Crafting Corner: Accessories for a Magazine Shoot (lots of pics)

I don't know if I told everyone but I was entering an idea for Giuseppina Magazine's seventh issue in hopes to be published. Its gonna be a rainbow themed issue and I did a shoot in respect to the day of silence. It was my brain child and I', super proud of it.......but this post is really about the plethora of accessories I made for the shoot. Not all of them were used but I will show you what I made........


These two were the sets of bows that I wore........since I was red.....
the above are red rose lace over black.....I might need to stretch the red out more next time
And the below are just a skull tulle that I had from my Halloween outfit



Two colors of orange bows. One is just orange. The other is almost like a tie die with two colors of orange.


Two colors of purple.....one just purple cotton while the other is a super silky dark purple fabric.


Once again two colors for the green. A basic green and then a patterned one
The patterned one I must admit is my favorite.......


Two colors of yellow. A plain and then a heart patterned one.....you can't see them but they are there!


I didn't finish the blue ones......but she only needed two for her outfit ^.^


And this is a picture of mass production of them.....all but the blue and red ones......

Now those are all the bows I made for this particular shoot. And good thing there were six of us right ^.^ Either way these were super easy to make. And then I just hot glued them to alligator clips.......which means that I might just spend this week mass produsing more of them......now other then that I also made us cute little collars....


This is a picture of mine with my wrist cuffs too.......

Day to day: MAC 'Haul' Part 2

Mkay so once again I found myself at the MAC counter in Valley River Center looking at things that I shouldn't be thinking I could afford......but if I wanna be a real make-up artist I needed to get myself a good eye primer for the shadows I have that aren't able to stay on their self......so this is what I got:




This is MAC's Paint Pot in Painterly (I think thats the color) and I rather like it. It matches close enough to my skin tone. And while shooting yesterday I talked to the make up artist that was there and she said that it was the best eye primer I could of bought.....so I don't feel so bad about the following picture:


Now.....while I hate having spent that much I think that it was a well worth it purchase. If you wanna do anything you need to invest in it ^.^ And I'm feeling ok with this purchase ^.^ Though I must say that they do like the $16.50 price tag.......
