11.8.2010 Beauty Before and After

I've been scheduling some important appointments that I felt I need to work on my makeup. I think I posted about a beauty mistake I did before where the day was hot and my makeup melted off because I didn't apply a fix spray that day. Hmm, I'm a little hesitant to mention what my appointments are for, but I'm sure they're easy to guess, though. Nothing too exciting.

I think I also like working on my makeup because I've collected a few that I like and remembered I had bought something or was given something that I'm putting to use. One of them are these velcro hair clips. I'm so excited to use them. I feel like I also want the pink ones too now, as a variety. This makeup look is very subtle now that I'm looking at the pictures. I must say though that I'm beginning to love mascara. And you can also sort of tell the difference they make in the second picture. I don't have much applied. Just neutral shadows basically. I think my lighting didn't do much, because I didn't use the flash. I am also planning on lightly applying my liner now. Either that or use more brown tones instead of black.

Hmm, oh! I'm excited to have gone to a bead store in San Diego! I've driven by there a few times to go to Fry's Electronic store but the location was so random. The store is called South Sun Beads and the building looks like a big warehouse. And when I went there today, it pretty much is, but it's stocked full of beads. They even had a outdoor sale. I picked up these two exact strings of amber glass beads for a total of 2.61. I didn't take a picture yet, because I plan on making my own prayer beads out of them. Ugh..... I also thought I had a string to use them for but the holes in them are too small to fit. This project time might take me a while to do. I'd still have to find/make a tassel for it.

10.5.2010 Bdays & Wishlists


In ten days it's my birthday, and I never really cared for a big soiree. I always liked presents though. Some of these things I'm hoping to get soon. Like those prayer beads! I was just at Cost Plus World market the other day in search for these. When I went online, I saw they were only 4.99 and in stores only! I was assuming that because of the eat pray love ad on the top right corner, they were probably only available around summertime right when that movie came out. I must admit that was one of the reasons why I wanted them to begin with. I'm sad to say that I didn't see them yesterday at the Cost Plus I went to. Today, I plan on going to a different one in search for them!

So far, these are just a few things I want. Slip on Sperry docksiders. I went to a Nautical type of store this weekend, and found these for like 30 dollars! I'm planning on getting them soon. They have two colors. I also want a new lens for my camera. I just got my camera this summer and want new lenses to go with it now. An Anthropologie dress that I was drawn to immediately when I saw it online. Unsure if I'll be getting this or not. I love Anthropolgie, but can only sometimes afford the clearance racks. Btw, I'm a little bummed to say that I saw these fleur de lis cups at Cost Plus the other day that reminded me of the Anthropolgie ones! For the same price as I got at Marshall's. And shorter too. I might have to go buy one today if I don't see my prayer beads. Or, this new awesome braided metal necklace they just carried. Lastly, on my list you see is Elderberry Honey. I just watched the Secret Life of Bees and saw that they're purple! I'd have so much fun with that on my toast.
