Urban Decay Book of Shadows IV


So I have a MAJOR addiction to makeup as some of you may know, but what you may not know is that I am in LOVE with Urban Decay.  Their products are amazing and one of my favorite things is their Book Of Shadows.  Some of you may have heard of the Book Of Shadows pallets, they are limited edition pallets that are just simply amazing. =) 

Now most of the Book Of Shadows pallets come with the 16 eye shadows and 2 eye pencils. But this one is Different! =)


This comes with the 16 eyeshadows of course, but it also comes with a travel size Primer Potion, a travel size Supercurl Curling Mascara, and a FULL SIZE 24/7 Waterproof liquid eyeliner!! And lets not forget...... A Mini Speaker and a cord!! So you take the cord, plug it into the speaker and then to your phone or ipod! And the speaker puts out good sound too, I like it.  Plus it has a clip on it, so you can carry it like a keychain. =) 


Now the 16 colors are Blue Bus, GunMetal, Cobra, Baked, Bender, Gravity, Lost, Hijack, Midnight Cowgirl, Sin, Midnight Rodeo, Crystal, Bust, Missionary, Skimp, and Zephyr.  And here are some swatches for you. =)


Shadows are, From Left to Right: Blue Bus, Gunmetal, Cobra, Baked; Bender, Gravity, Lost, Hijack




Shadows are, From Left to Right:  Midnight Cowgirl, Sin, Midnight Rodeo, Crystal; Bust, Missionary, Skimp, Zephyr


The eyeshadows are great! Like almost all other Urban Decay eyeshadows they are highly pigmented, smooth, and they stay on all day. I use the primer potion and I never have any problem with creasing or fading, which I love. 


All in All, I LOVE this Pallet. I like that they replaced the two mini eyeliners with the full size liquid liner, because although I love the pencil liner, I have been waiting to get a Liquid Liner, and I love it.  It is easy to use and can create a sharp line, or can be smudged.  And the speaker! I love the speaker, I plug it in to my phone and rock out while Im doing my makeup. It's a lot of fun. =)


So some pro's and Con's:


Pros:

  • Great new products 
  • Limited Edition Colors
  • 100% Cruelty Free
  • Creative Beautiful packaging. 
Cons:

  • Expensive
  • Some shades are to glittery, Some are to sheer
  • The pallet is a little big and clunky.
AND AND AND!
If you go to Urban Decays website they have this pallet on sale for $44.00! Plus you get an extra $15 off when you enter the code SEVENTEEN11!! And that's a really good deal, because it's originally $64! 


Have a great day!!! =)

I just don't know...

So I have to get this off my chest, or I'm afraid I might burst.

Last night I was talking to my friend and we were talking about crushes, and she admitted to me that she has had a crush on a guy since the 4th grade, that's like 11 years.  And I asked her why she never told me and she said, "Well I was ashamed. He was my best Friend, it was weird."

And all I could think was WOW. Because Im in almost the same situation, only he's not my best friend and it's been more like 13 or 14 years that I have been crushing on him. (Different Guys) So I asked around to a couple of my other friends and some of them feel the same way, so I figured if it could happen to us, it could happen to anyone.  Anyone male or female could be going through what I'm going through, what my friends are going through, so I want to tell you this, maybe it'll help you find some comfort.

When I was in 3rd grade we moved to a new neighborhood.  One of the first days we were there I took a walk, as I made it to the corner I saw some kids playing basketball....And I saw him.  In that moment I had a crush, did I know that it was going to become this long drawn out thing? No, all I knew was that he was SOOO CUTE.

I won't bore you with our every encounter, but suffice it to say it left a mark on me. And no matter how hard I tried NOT to like him.... Nothing worked.  He was a year older than me and I was madly in like with this older guy, and as the years passed and I went into 5th and 6th grade this crush just grew.

He would come over and laugh and talk, and we would hang out and with every word he spoke, with every smile he smiled I fell deeper and deeper.  And he KNEW it.  I wasn't very good at hiding my feelings, Im pretty sure EVERYONE knew I liked him.

Well, one day we're talking about it and he tells me I'm to young for him.  Now you would have thought that would at least dampen this STUPID crush, but no....It didn't.  It made me angry though, the big JERK. I mean seriously dude, I'm a YEAR younger than you! REALLY!?  But of course I just smiled and nodded.  And although he will probably deny it, he did use my crush to his advantage.  But I let him, I guess I figured that if I did stuff for him he might stop seeing me as to young for him.

Yeah I know, young and dumb though, remember?

I still remember his smile, his laugh, and how he would talk to me when he and his friends would go by on their bikes or whatever.

So anyway, A few years ago I thought I had this stupid crush GONE.  That it had packed its bags and FINALLY left me... But I was sorely mistaken. My friend and I were at the store, and for some reason had started talking about him, and neither of us had seen him for quite a while and we were laughing and joking and when we walked out the door BAM there he was. Driving by.  I know! Weird right! Well we got his attention and he stopped and talked for a while and then he and I exchanged numbers.

Well He came over that night and we had fun, joking and goofing around. Having a good time, and with every moment I felt myself falling back to where I was.  Realizing that I was NOT over him...No matter how hard I tried to be. And then....We kissed. It was short, more like a peck. But it was enough for me. The moment his lips touched mine it was like I had been electrified. His arms were around my waist and Im pretty sure that if he hadn't been holding me I would have melted to a puddle on the floor.

No one knows we kissed, not even my sister, so Im sorry Bean, but that little morsel was for me only.  That was one thing I had to hang on to the hope that MAYBE I would finally get the guy that I had liked for so long... But of course, that didn't happen, and it still hasn't, so now it's yours world.

And the thing is, I'm still not over him.

I don't see him and I rarely talk to him, but it's still there....Im pretty sure it's one of those things I will never get over.  There are times when I'll IM him or something, and we'll talk for a few minutes but it's nothing more than that. And yet this crush won't leave me alone.  I see his picture, or I hear his name and it all comes rushing back to me.

Sometimes, the things he says when we're IMing I can hear him saying. I can see his smile. And it's just sad. I know it is, but I just can't help it.

My friend and I were talking the other day and she asked, "Well do you think it's just the idea of him?" And of course I was like, what a brilliant question! That could very well be it. But...Im afraid it's not. That night, I talked to him, and my stomach started doing backflips, and I couldn't help but smile.  I don't think it is just the "idea" of this man that has me all......Crushy.

Now, I am ashamed too. I'm ashamed of this crush.  Because deep in my heart I know that there will never be anything between us.  In his eyes I will always be the dorky girl across the street that had a crush on him.  I'll always be too young in his eyes. I will never make it past that.  And yet, even though I know that...I can't stop liking him.

So know this, even if you have a crush on someone, even if it's unusually long, just know that there is always someone out there in the same situation you're in.  There is always someone liking someone else, even if there's not a chance.  There is always someone afraid to say what they feel.  There is always someone who is ashamed of their feelings, or ashamed about who they have feelings toward.

If you're in a tough spot like me and some of my friends keep your head up, know that we are right there with you feeling what you're feeling, and most likely thinking what you're thinking.  And know that you can come to us anytime.

You can't help who you like...Or in my case... Love.

If you made it through this then wow, I just noticed how long I rambled, and Im sorry!!!

Happy Tuesday!

Why hello there lovely! How are you today?

Im doing purrrrty good. =) Planning out my shopping trip so that I can go grocery shopping either tonight or tomorrow. It will probably end up being tomorrow though, so I can finish getting my coupons around.  If any of you read my other post you'll know that my coupon binder is GONE! And I still haven't gotten it back or found out if I will even get it back =( But I have still been getting my papers, I've just been going "Clipless" I don't really know if I like it. lol.

In other news, If you read my post about my 90 day challenge I am doing it, I didn't start when I wanted to because I procrastinate. but I have lost 3 pounds this week! I'm pretty excited. I'm sure I could have done better, but I went a little overboard on the chips and chocolate and candy last week. lol.

BUT when someone gets you a chocolate heart and stuff for Valentines Day you can't just ignore it.  It MUST be eaten. lol. At least thats how I feel, call me weird if you must. =)

Other than that though I had a good week, I walked and jogged almost every day, I did a little Yoga, I danced a little.  I had fun. =)

Also, Where I live we are having a very mild winter, so there has been no snow or anything like that and it really hasn't been to cold so walking and jogging is really nice.  And it's nice to be able to grab my ipod and go for a walk.  I DO still wear my winter coat, because it is still a little chilly out, but it's still great.

Don't forget to check out the Giveaway for the My Memories Suite Scrapbook Software! =)

And have a great day! =)

And just because this has quickly become one of my favorite walking songs and I love it:

5-4-3-2-1 I'm a rocket man...

Ahhhhh Eric Church. I love Eric Church. =) And lately this song has been in my head CONSTANTLY. Seriously, I've listened to it at LEAST 12 times this morning.  I just love it. lol.



All you gotta do is put a drink in my hand!!! =) haha

I am a HUGE Eric Church fan and as you may know a HUGE Brantley Gilbert fan...and as some of you may know Brantley is on the Blood, Sweat, and Beers tour with Eric Church and they are coming to where I live! Well, like 30 minutes away, but same difference. =)

So I AM GOING! My friend and I bought our tickets when we first found out, which was in December. lol. So yeah, it's been a while.  I am so excited I just CANT wait. I'm like a giddy teenager.  When we bought our tickets I was jumping up in down with a cheesy smile on my face.  If I would have recorded it I would have posted it for you to see, I'm pretty sure someone would have gotten a chuckle out of it. lol

I am SOOOOO excited. (Pretty sure I already said that. But oh well.)  I'm not sure what it is, but Eric Church just puts me in a good mood.  His songs, his voice, his personality, it's all of it.  And it doesn't matter what song it is either.  His music just makes me smile. lol. ♥ ♥ ♥

So, we're also going to have a little giveaway.. Now this will go until the 21st of this month, so I can get in touch with the winner and all that jazz.

What the giveaway will be for is a Blood, Sweat, and Beers tour t-shirt.  When I go to the concert I will pick one up for the winner.  If you would rather have a poster or a CD or something, that's cool too.  But we'll discuss that when we have a winner. =)  And if I can get it autographed I will!!! =)

WHO

Just made spaghetti at 11pm?

If you guessed Me.............................................

You're right. =)

Don't ask why, because the only answer I can give is that it sounded really good.  And I was really hungry...and these cravings are CRAZY. So I got up at 11 and made a big pot of spaghetti, I only had 1 bowl, so I did good.  The rest is already put away neatly in my tupperware in my fridge.....AND I've already done the dishes from it.  Woot Woot.  =)

And now, I'm sitting on the couch watching Golden Girls and typing this. I Love the Golden Girls, I watch it every day, a lot of people think I'm weird because of my age.  But who cares what they think, this is a good show and if they would watch it they would know.

Plus some of the stuff they say just cracks me up.

Especially Sophia, she's probably my favorite.  She is SOO funny.

I'm already regretting the spaghetti, because now I won't sleep for a couple hours. =/ And I'm tired, and I know tomorrow is going to be a long day. But OH WELL I did it to myself.  I knew making it so late wasn't a good idea, but once the idea came into my head I just couldn't get it out. Harrumph.

So I might play some video games, and talk to a couple people, and maybe do a little work.  And then go to sleep. lol. Oh Oh Oh and plan my shopping trip! I've gotta get that done because I'm supposed to go shopping tomorrow. So I better get on that!

Well have a good night!

PS: Do you watch the Golden Girls?? =)

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Oh, and juuuuust to let you know.. Arguing with a man about who wears the pants in you "relationship" is a lot of fun. lol. Especially when he is SURE that he is the pants wearer. I secretly think he knows that I wear the pants.....he just doesn't want to admit it.  Teehee.

Frustration and a Review! =)

Hello there Lovely!
How are you doing today??

If you read my last post (Doctors visit) and my brilliant plan to get out of it... Well it turns out I didn't need my brilliant plan after all!! Because....

The IDIOTS cancelled my appointment.....WithOUT telling me.

Yes, that's right.

I called to confirm my appointment and the lady gets all my info and says, "Well I'm not showing you on our calender at all." And I was like, "uhhhh, What?!" And I heard another lady in the background say, "Oh, we cancelled that."

"Uhm, EXCUSE ME!?" So not only did the MORONS cancel my appointment, but they did it without telling me. If I hadn't called to confirm the appointment I would have shown up for it, then what? THEN WHAT?! Then they would have said, "Oh, we cancelled your appointment, sorry, see ya next time." Really?

I don't like them anyway, but they were the ones that could get me in soonest, and now I am deeply regretting it.  Because they are MORONS, and I've never liked them. And that just solidifies my intense dislike for them, never again will I make an appointment there.

Oh, and they couldn't even give me a reason why they cancelled me. And when I told them, "I made this appointment a week ago, I want to see the doctor." She said, "Well, we have already rebooked your appointment, so there's nothing we can do for you.  But you can always go to the ER." Yeah, that's right.  That is what she told me.  I was so close to telling her to shove it. Or maybe something a little worse. =)

Oh and this is just a side note.... I LOVE The Big Bang theory. It is one of my favorite shows. =) The Big Bang Theory and How I met your mother, seriously. I watch both of them everyday. lol. I'm actually watching Big Bang right now, the one where Sheldon gets all the cats. ♥ ♥ ♥


Ok, so now on to the Review... Go 360 Clean!!

I love this stuff. I use it every day. It makes my face feel clean and I love the little scrubber that comes with it. I just put a dollop of my face wash on there and wash my face.... Sometimes I wash for a few minutes, because the scrubber pad feels so good. lol.

Plus they have different formulas and everything. I've tried the Green and the Blue, I like them both.

=)

Well have a Good night!!!

Have you ever used this Face wash?

Do you watch the big bang theory?  Who is you favorite Character if you do?

Do you watch How I Met Your Mother? Who is your favorite Character?
