BIG apology!

Wow I have been pretty much MIA on my blog and I apologize to you who read =(

Everything is okay, just extremely busy with work and I lost my wi-fi internet for a couple days lol grrr.
BUT! I went shopping tonight at my mall and bought a lot so I want to do a haul post to share with you guy's what I bought, so look for that soon. Tomorrow I have a friends birthday party downtown Seattle so I won't be able to post it but hopefully Sunday.

I also ordered GEO circle lenses about a month ago, they should be in my hands in 2 weeks so I will do a review on those as well.

Until then, have a wonderful weekend ladies!

PS.

If any of you have any MAC Hello Kitty brush set available at your local MAC/Nordstrom/Macy's store, please let me know, I will paypal you more than it is worth. I made the mistake of waiting and I have called more than 25 stores near me and they are all sold out =(. Pretty sure I will never get my hands on them, but hoping I can try one LAST time. Let me know =)

My Pretty Pink Box...Arrived!!

Blushes - MAC vs. NARS?!

I am not quite sure which blush I love more. Unfortunately, I bought the MAC blush (Shy Beauty) at a Cosmetics Company Outlet store so I don't think it is available at a MAC store permanently but may still be available at your local CCO. The NARS blush (Orgasm) is a tad darker then Shy Beauty but both are a pink/peach color with accents of golden shimmer. I am drawn to any light pink cosmetic with gold shimmer!!



The picture above shows that both blushes are pretty close in color. I did a little swatch for you guy's, and just to let you know, I did overdo it a little bit just to do this swatch. I bought the MAC powder for $13.50 but would have paid $18.00 if I had purchased it at a MAC store . NARS blushes are smaller by 1.5g and are $25.00, so it is a little more expensive which is a bit of a letdown but both colors are great!



Let me know if you guy's have these colors and tell me if you love them, hate them, whatever! I personally like Orgasm better just because Shy Beauty seems to flush my face a tiny bit since it is lighter, you can sort of tell by my swatch! I just love the glowy and shimmery look on my cheeks after I apply NARS on my face! Leave a comment below letting me know which color you prefer more!

OH HEY, it's my kitty =) lol she was bothering me while I was taking pictures for this blog post so I just took one of her meowing at me for 10 minutes straight.

My Pretty Pink Box

Hey everyone, I just wanted to let you guy's know about this awesome website called "My Pretty Pink Box", you pay a very low price for an adorably decorated pink box which has samples from known retailers and also some great new companies! The box price will not stay the same month after month (i.e. January's box price $10.99, February's box price $11.99) only because the content that they receive may be greater than a previous month, this is very fair and they will charge accordingly.

SKU - MPPB004

Sample Bags
February's prices

They also offer shipping insurance which helps protect your package against loss or damage during shipping. Add this to your order if you want to make sure you are completely protected for only $1.70 more! As of right now they are currently only shipping boxes to all 50 states in the US.

February's boxes are going on sale TOMORROW starting at 7:00am Pacific Time, February 2nd. Linda Granillo who is head of "My Pretty Pink Box" has told me they sell out pretty fast so definitely move fast if you are ordering! I am hoping I will be able to snag one before everyone else does. Maximum order of 3 boxes per customer/address. Orders with more than 3 boxes purchased will be canceled without notice.
