okay, another shot with my "lucky" eyeshadow color for this year. this time, i played with my MAC MES in Fresh Green Mix which i haven't used for a loooong time. EYES: PAC brow kit topped with MAC brow set in Girl Boy UDPP MAC paintpot in Soft Ochre MAC MES in Fresh Green Mix CS gel liner in Black MAC mascara Revlon eyeliner my face still looks flushed from using Obagi. I try to put just a little blush but i still end up looking like a clown. oh well, gotta sacrifice to get back that "glow" i had when i was still loyal to Obagi.

it's been a while since i last played with my loose mineral eyeshadows, and yep, i have tons of them! good thing i only got sample baggies (most of them i've transferred to pots) when i first got addicted to buying online a year ago. i remember getting a hundred of e/s shades and still call it "sampling." LOL.. honestly, i still want to get more. but i definitely need to stop myself from doing so. i have no idea how on earth i'd be able to finish all of them. last thursday, i reached out for an envelope which holds my Pure Anada samples (yep, i haven't found the time to take them off it) and since it's still not a Friday, i decided to go for a subtle non-neutral look. (geesh, i look terrified in this pic!)

I still love the coverage it gives...and the staying power. I apply it with a stippling brush and it does give the (almost) airbrushed look. I try to keep myself from using it too often though...because i would like to be on MMU foundations for everyday use. you know what? i am super duper ACIDIC. I am using NC25 and still goes a bit dark on me after a few hours. UGH.

Glamour Gloss Color Gloss #28 Color Gloss #43 The first time i bought from this brand was when i heard raves about their Eye Base. I remember buying that, and a lipgloss (Glamour Gloss), some eyeshadows and an eyeshadow brush. The second time i bought from them was when my teacher, RB Chanco, told how much she likes LipGloss #28. It's nude and great for matching smokey eyes. I then knew i just had to get that. LOL and with that purchase, i also got Lipgloss #43...and that purchase was followed by another...and another... L-R: #43, Glamour Gloss and $28 #28 Glamour Gloss #43 what i love: gorgeous colors its staying power. it would be better to line your lips with a lip liner first then apply this. so the color won't bleed. it doesn't taste weird. i personally love the taste of the Glamour Gloss...hehhe it doesn't give you that look on your lips as if you've been eating fatty, oily foods. i've been using the Glamour Gloss on some of my wedding gigs and they al...

okay, so i'm feeling a bit rebellious again today. i decided to wear yellow and green (the latter just because according to TotalBeauty, this is my lucky eyeshadow color for this year.)

actually, no. this look was what i wore yesterday. hehehe...yep, i decided to wear the "year's color" for the day and i didn't care if people stared at me as if i am going to a (disco) party with the sun still up. rar...it does feel good to be a "rebel" sometimes....woot!

I am back on OBAGI and i promise not to stray EVER AGAIN! I miss the glow i have when i was still on this regimen last year. i didn't have pimples and the bumps on my face disappeared...but the stupid me started trying out new products and my face became a disaster again. (sniff) i was again left with darn pimple marks, bumps and pimples just don't seem to stop popping out. and it made me realize, why on earth did i stop OBAGI when it was the only regimen that helped me? ARGGGGHHH....stupid, stupid me. I had to attend my friend's wedding as the maid of hon...
