June Happenings

Long time no update. The end of last month, and all of this month have been crazy busy for me. I had rainbow nails for quite some time and people seemed to enjoy the Skittles effect, so here goes nothing.

After that I had a blast at my brother's graduation, but unfortunately no pictures makeupwise from that. I do happen to have pictures of last night.

Seeing as I was in the process of moving, I'm surprised that this came out kind of nice. I have pics of the outfit (all be it kind of blurry) which I was quite proud of. I fell in love with the scarf when I first saw it in an African gift shop in the area and I feel that it was really the pivot of this outfit.

Temperature Rising

Today the UPS man came by with a box for me :D It had my Orange Lip Mix and Temperature Rising (orange lip pencil). Needless to say I was excited and wanted to try it out right away.

I know that orange is quite bold for a lot of people, but to tell you the truth, I was first captivated by lip colors in a Vogue that I bought in fall of 2006 that had a neon orange lip with what I later identified to be a golden yellow sheen in the middle of it.

One thing I really do have to say about orange is that if you're not careful you might look like you lost control of yourself in a bag of Cheetos. Like this:
