Absolutely nothing new or exciting to report. No exciting plans coming my way. Not even sure who I'll be rooting for on Super Bowl Sunday! (i guess whoever's winning..jk) Hope everyone enjoys the weekend!

Feels like forever since I posted anything, even a simple hello. I know this is very late but, how were everyone's holidays? Well at the end of last month, my honey and I took off to see his fav football team .:.The Dallas Cowboys.:. play against the Baltimore Ravens. Well as everyone already knows, the Cowboys were embarrassingly beaten by the Ravens. But we had so much fun the whole time. Except for when I got sick at the game. It was at night and it was freezing! So I had a cold through Christmas =(. But got over it! Hopefully I can successfully post some pics on here of our good time! Look At The Top Post =)
didn't really get anything "beauty wise" for X-mas. But my kids did get me some perfume for part of my gift. I got Burberry The Beat and it smells awesome!!
This weekend is going to be just a stay at home weekend relaxing. No plans whatsoever. I don't know why I even bothered with makeup. I guess sometimes a girl wants to feel pretty for no reason. So here's my FOTD☺

Within the last couple of days I got 2 packages that I had been waiting for. Camellia Rose and Lauress. Both of these companies I haven’t tried before. I got my package from Camellia Rose first. It had taken almost a month to get it only because my email is retarded. Every time Jen would try to email me about shipping costs, I wouldn’t get them! So I had no idea she was trying to contact me! So about a week ago I thought I would try and find out what was going on with my order and wrote her an email. She then responded and explained that she had been trying to get a hold of me for weeks! Ugh! Stupid Yahoo! Lol. I ordered her primer in the original formula. I know some people get reactions from the regular formula but I took my chances and ordered a full size. And I Love It! This has been the best primer I have used. I’ve only tried a couple of others including: Smashbox’s Photo Finish Primer (which made me break out), OceanMist’s Skinsuals Oil Free Makeup Primer (had a horrific smell and made me break out), Fyrinnae’s Under There Primer (I did like this but they discontinued it), and Classy Minerals Smooth primer (descent but didn’t wow me). When I put on Jen’s primer my pores almost seem to disappear! No other product does that for me. And my makeup does last a lot longer which is the best part. I am so glad that I finally ordered. I had always heard how great it was and now I’m kicking myself for not purchasing it sooner. She also threw in a sample of Goat’s Milk Mango Soap. Smells really good and makes my skin soft! Now on to my 2nd order that I got. Lauress! They really take the time to make sure your package is secure. Everything was nicely sealed and wrapped tight around a cardboard.They even threw in a free sample of eyeshadow! I wanted to try some foundation samples and blush samples. For the foundations I picked the Minimalist formula in Fresh Gold and Warm Gold and the Etheral formula in Warm Gold. I think I did pretty good with the color choices. They both look good. Warm Gold might might be an eensy weensy bit dark on me but you can’t even tell. I think that Fresh Gold will be better for me though especially when the summer starts coming to an end. First day I tested the foundation I was actually on my way to a concert. I couldn’t decide which foundation I wanted to try first because I had heard that even though the Ethereal provides better coverage, that the Minimalist lasts longer. Well for that day since I was going to be perspiring like a dog at a concert, I needed both benefits so I decided to just use both. I put a layer of the Ethereal in Warm Gold first and then a layer of the Minimalist in Fresh Gold after. I think it worked pretty good. All the way up to the concert I really liked the finish and I thought the color suited me well. By the time I got home (like 2am) my makeup didn’t exactly feel fresh only because I had such a good time. I didn’t expect it be fresh so I’ll have to do some more days of real testing. Here I am before I left the house. Concert was about 90 miles away so I threw my makeup on in a hurry because we were running late and I still had to get my kids to my mom‘s.

So I got my Blusche samples in! Actually since last week but didn't get a chance to play around with them because my older son had a medical procedure done and we were out of town for a couple of days. But now that I'm back I got to do some testing! I only ordered 3 foundation samples. Mocha Java, Caramel Macchiato, and Cafe Americano. All are in Full Coverage and with Kaolin. Caramel Machiato might be a tad dark for me but not by much. Cafe Americano is pretty much there just didn't have that touch of yellow that I need. Mocha Java worked great but wasn't sure if it had just a little too much yellow? Well even though this is their "Full Coverage" formula. I would honestly have to say that it's more of a med to full. Atleast on me because I have problem skin. But it's definitely buildable! So far I would have to say that it's "Pretty Good". I aslo got a freebie blush in "Raisin". Haven't tried it yet though. Here I am wearing Mocha Java. My camera doesn't always take the most natural photos! Ugh! I kinda show up looking a lot lighter then normal. Sorry.... I look pretty tired here. You can't tell bacuse of the daylight, but it was already early evening. I thought I was done for the day from doing anything. I go to make a bottle for my little one and guess what? No formula!! So I hopped in the car and ran to town for an emergency can. Lordy! How did I not snap that we were practically out! I also wanted to test out Aromaleigh's Nocturne Treatment as a primer. I already use this at night but I read that it helped someone control their oilies during the day so I just had to try it myself! I applied with a flocked sponge and misted it with just a little water, waited till it dried, and applied my mmu. To my amazement, it actually helped! I wasn't as oily as I usually get! (And nothing ever seems to work).

The other day I burnt my head with curling iron. Yes, only I can still manage to get a curling iron burn. So I slabbed on some Aloe Vera gel from the plant and used a lot of concealer. Still visible though. =(. You see it? It's a little above my right eyebrow.
