A few MAC Goodies!

Hubby surprised me with some MAC goodies! He keeps a copy of my wish list in his phone.
I was very excited! Generally I stick with the Amplified formula lipsticks. One of my collegues suggested I try Fresh Brew (Lustre). She said it was more wearable than Viva Glam Gaga 2.




I was surprised to see that Tan Pigment has a dupe in my collection. L'Oreal HiP Loose Eyeshadow in TENACIOUS.

I cannot wait to play with these colors. Do you own any of these goodies? Are any of them on your wish list?

Nail Polish Haul

Are you excited about warmer weather? I am!
I love wearing opentoed shoes and showing off my pedicure. I have been trying not to buy makeup.
Nail polish doesn't count right?
Swatches coming soon!

These beauties are from China Glaze Spring 2011 Collection.
There are 12 in total. I only selected ones I thought would compliment my skintone. I prefer opaque shades.




The next group are some from my wish list.

Diva Bride (Pale Pink cream),
Naked (Coral w/ shimmer),
Rich and Famous (Blue based Pink Cream),
Fifth Avenue (Light Mauve Cream),
Pool Party (Neon Pink),
Ruby Pumps (Apple Red Glitter),
Four Leaf Clover (Kelly Green Cream),
Recycle (Steel Gray Cream)


I bought these Sinful Colors from a limited edition display at Walgreens. It was a complete impulse buy. There were a few more colors, but I liked these best. I believe the theme is inspired by Greece.
The light green with shimmer is called OLYMPIA.
The beautiful blue color is called GRECIAN SUN.

















Have you purchased any nail polish lately?

Updated Mujis (Makeup Storage) Sneak Peek

Here is a sneak peek at my current set up.




I am hoping that 4 - 5 drawers
and 2 - 2 drawers will be enough
to contain my collection.  One of the
two drawers has a hinged lid.
I opted to have that as I did not want
to have my foundations laying flat.
I am working to use what I have
and not acquire much else.
I do have separate storage for most of
my larger eyeshadow palettes.



I purchased the units over several months from http://www.muji.us/store/storage/acrylic-cases.html .
I am thrilled with the quality of the craftsmanship.
The sleek simple design compliments any decor.
Stay tuned for a breakdown of the drawers soon.
Have you purchased any of these types of systems? What is your setup like?
