So my problem is laziness. I take pictures, then they sit on the camera. I have pictures on my digital camera from nearly a year ago! So… this morning I don’t have much going on, so I am vowing to go through all the makeup pictures, delete the crap ones, and post up good ones, regardless of how old.

What this means is that I probably won’t remember which products I used. But I still want to post them up since I took the effort to take the pics, ya know? What’s even worse is that my camera’s date kept resetting, so I don’t even have an accurate date for these Most will be from March – June 2009.

I run several blogs on a huge variety of subjects, and I tend to neglect them all, so honestly I REALLY need to make a vow to at least stay on top of a few.

First up…

This is from September 22, 2009.

Two words: SPICED CHOCOLATE!

I heard so much raving about this quad, so when I caught notice it was at my nearest CCO, I ran over and grabbed it. I’ve been in such a mood for a “fall feeling” with bronzes and reds, so this really excited me. And it didn’t fail to impress! (Which is always important, as things tend to get hyped up on MAC forums and turn out to be a bust)

I also dyed my hair recently “Deep Burgundy” by Feria. These pictures were taken soon after it was dyed. 1.5 weeks later and it’s faded a bit, but still really red. Maybe I finally found a good red hair dye?! Well, that, and I switched to using a sulfate-free shampoo (Bed Head Superstar) which really helps on prolonging hair color.

I went for a strawberries & bananas look this day and ended up messing it up by using a black eyeliner. I don’t like dark eyeliner (as you can tell, I usually don’t line my looks, which drives some people crazy but I like no liner a lot of the time). Therefore, I will only post the open eyes version.

MAC Chrome Yellow
MAC Black Russian pearlglide liner (ARGHHHH)
MAC Full of Fuchsia Technakohl liner (trying to unruin the look)

Sometime in August 2009
How great are Taylor Swift dresses?! Haha, I just had to say that!

This was done with some of the Hello Kitty shadows… I’m guessing Too Dolly and Lucky Tom are two of the candidates

Sometime in April or May 2009
Awww, this is sooo pretty, I wish I remembered what I used I almost want to think I used Plumed Violet Cream Colour Base, but I am not sure.

April 3, 2009
I remembered the date on this one because this was the night of the Fast & Furious opening, LOL! I was going for the import model look, I guess. I used Too Faced Ooh & Aah duo eyeshadow.

That’s about all! There were other ones, but I either didn’t like how I did the makeup, or it was a repeat of something I had posted earlier.

Whew!

I am going to try to focus on getting swatches and collection photos up. I know natural light is best for that, but unfortunately the weather is quite crappy so I’ll have to see how far I get with that, especially today.
