hi, i'm Kathleen, and i'm kind of a bit of a late bloomer to makeup, but i'm having tons of fun while i'm playing with it all! come follow me as i share my thoughts, tips, and tricks through my new obsession & hobby! thanks! :)
after visiting my local Sally Beauty, i finally found the lip gloss that Tracy & Stef/eleventhgorgeous teamed up with Palladio to make!
it is such a nice pink lip gloss and it smells so delicious (vanilla). i actually picked up a couple more for a potential future giveaway. :)
sorry for uploading so many pre-recorded videos this week... i checked and i uploaded 3 this week! i've not been in the mood to put on makeup this week or do other makeup-related videos... but i'll try to upload all new videos until i leave on vacation... which can't come soon enough!
so i hope you have a good weekend and i'll be back tomorrow with another video! xoxo Kathleen
whoops! i forgot to blog again yesterday! i don't want to make this a bad habit!
i finally went to see The Hunger Games all by myself. i enjoyed the movie. it had a lot of suspense and action. i didn't realize i was so tense throughout the entire movie that when i walked out, i couldn't walk! my legs were so stiff! it was so painful to move! LOL i do need to read the book itself as i only listened to it via audio. i know i missed a bunch of stuff that didn't show up in the movie and couldn't quite understand some of the stuff that did happen in the movie. i should know by now that i can't pay attention to audio books. i get so easily distracted that while i think i'm listening, i'm really not and then i'm lost or too lazy to rewind.
i hadn't been out of the house in a while because going out of the house usually means i go shopping so i treated myself to lunch at one of my favorite places and then went shopping at my FAVORITE clothing store ever - LOFT. then i went to Ulta (before i went home) and picked up the rest of the real Techniques brushes that i wanted and a couple Revlon lipsticks and a couple of cream eye shadows. i think i did pretty good at holding back on wanting to buy more. i perused the nail polish section and picked up a few bottles but did not put them in my bag. i really cannot buy anymore nail polishes because i have every color that i need. my collection is utterly ridiculous.
anyway, i enjoyed my day and i also received the rest of my packages that were already coming to me in April. i plan on not buying any more makeup until i go on vacation in May. i think i can do it. do makeup brands come out with summer collections or just spring? either way, i am going to try my best not to buy anything until i go on vacation in May and even then, i might not pick up anything new because i don't think we'll be going shopping much. i just plan on relaxing by the lake, taking in the sites, and eating lots of good food... like you should do on vacation. xoxo Kathleen
i think these PRIME TIME primer shadows are just as good as the L'Oreal Infallible 24hr or Maybelline Color Tattoo cream shadows. there are a lot more colors out there than i have (and i hope to collect them all!) and they go on just as smoothly and easily as any other potted or stick cream shadow.
i should also tell you that it took me a while to take off this eye makeup! LOL i mentioned this before but i don't really like wearing really black eyeliner because it just closes off my already-small eyes... but i wore it today - just because - and when it came time to remove it with Bioderma, i actually had to use TWO cotton pads instead of the usual one. talk about waterproof eyeliner! i will be featuring this eyeliner in an upcoming video - hopefully this week - before i go out of town.
speaking of going out of town, you'll get a kick out of the videos i'm going to upload. i watched the five that i found and i just cracked myself up listening to myself and watching how i edited the videos. wow. i wasn't very informal back then. i was just all business. LOL it's nice to see that i'm a bit more relaxed now... i like the way that i come across in these videos nowadays. i guess it's because i'm more comfortable in front of the camera than before... then again, the videos i'm uploading were recorded in 2009. oh, and even though i said that i wasn't going to mix in other makeup brands, obviously you'll see that in these oldies but goodies other makeup brands show up, but more than half of the products used will be from bareMinerals. i hope you don't mind! xoxo Kathleen
