Drugstore FOTD and update

Hello lovelies!!! :) 

I hope everyone had a safe and wonderful New Year.  I also would like to say a special thanks to  the followers of my blog since the very beginning...you guys are the best!!! :) My New Year resolution is to find a job back in San Diego so I can move back as soon as possible.  Leave me a comment and let me know what your New Year resolutions were for 2011 :)

Also, I just wanted to share with you a quick face of the day using only drugstore products.  Here are some pictures taken with my webcam so do note that the colors seem a bit more toned down here, however, in person, the colors are a bit more vibrant.

What I'm wearing:

Foundation: Maybelline Superstay 24Hour in Classic Biege

Cheeks: NYC Sunny Bronzer, ELF Blush in Tickled Pink ($3)

Lips: Revlon Colorburst (002) in Crystal Lilac

Eyeshadow Primer: ELF Mineral Eyeshadow Primer ($3)

Shadow: ELF Beauty Encyclopedia in the Basic Eye Edition ($5)

Liner: ELF Liquid liner in Black and Copper ($1/each)

Mascara: Covergirl Lashblast Fusion

It's been a while since my last update.  The past couple weeks of break has been so good to me and I was able to spend lots of time with my loved ones doing very fun things.  We even managed to go the the happiest place on Earth :) Yay Disneyland!!!  My sister came down to visit for a week and we managed to squeeze in karaoke, rock climbing, Disneyland, and lots of yummy food :)  Unfortunately, I forgot to take more pictures than I ended up taking, but I'm going to be sharing some with you here. 

My sister and I on the shuttle into Disneyland.  I know, we don't look alike at all.

We made it in after a long wait for the shuttle, which was the beginning of a long day of waiting in extremely long lines

The huge decorated tree that greeted us once we entered

It's a Small World at Night in its full glory :) it was gorgeous all lit up

My sister with the beautiful castle all lit up :)

Overall, I would say our Disneyland trip was a success even though it was super packed.  I believe the news said that there were 85,000 people there at the 2 parks the day we went so it was almost impossible to get around.  Due to the long lines, we were only able to go on about 5 rides, but I'm still glad we went :) 

Ok, that's all for today

Quick FOTD and La Femme Review :)

Hi my darlings!!!

I know it's been a while since my last blog post and I'm extremely sorry.  Recently, I stumbled upon a new brand at my local beauty supply store and I decided to try it out.  I picked up 6 blushes and 4 eye shadows and I'm love-love-loving their products!!!  The brand is La Femme and I must say, their blushes are simply amazing :) I could have probably done without the eye shadows since I already have so many neutrals and what not, but I wanted to give them a try.  This brand is extremely affordable, each of the blushes were about $6, but they had a buy one get the second one half off, so 2 blushes were about $9.  I am definitely going to pick up more since I'm in love with their pigmentation.  A little bit of product definitely goes a long way and these blushes absolutely have to be applied with a light hand otherwise you will look like you're wearing clown makeup....unless that's the look you're going for =P  but here is a video of my review of the blushes and eye shadows along with some swatches if you ladies are interested ;)

 

 I also wanted to quickly share my face of the day so here it is :)

 

That is all for now until next time!!!
