I FINALLY got my hands on one of these after weeks of searching! I swear this is like, the holy grail of eyeshadow palettes. And I’m thrilled to say, it was well worth the effort. This sexy little case has 12 neutral eye shadows (5 of which are brand new shades!) as well as a dual ended eyeliner and mini tube of Primer Potion. I’ve been having so much fun playing around with these colors and putting different looks together, so be on the lookout for my 2010 Fabulous Fall Tutorials using these amazing colors.

Every now and then I do a tutorial that I love, love, loooove and this most definitely is one of them! I created this look because I finally got the Lancome La Laque Fever lipgloss in Electric Pink, which I had been just dying to get my hands on since Michelle Phan talked about it a while back. So here is the look I came up with, and I could NOT love this lip color more! Totally worth the $26!

As promised, here’s what I got during Urban Decay’s 30% off sale last week. I mostly stocked up on the essentials, but of course I had to pick up a few fun things too! And because I’m nosey, I wanna know what you guys picked up, so let me know down below in the comments section!

Yes, you read me right, my favorite make-up brand ever is having an online sale! From now until April 19th, use the code 1SFNF at checkout and get 30% off EVERYTHING on the site! This is a great time to stock up on all your faves, and try out a few of the new items, like the uber sparkly Stardust Shadows (swoon!) or the new make-up setting sprays.



I’ll do a haul as soon as my Urban Decay goodies arrive in the mail, until then get thee to shopping! Let me know what you bought in the comments, I love hearing about my readers shopping habits! Gosh I’m such an enabler! Tee hehe…

Apparently I’m not the only one excited about the launch of Urban Decay’s new Alice in Wonderland eye shadow palette, cuz you guys have been asking about it like crazy! So, here’s what I know:




Urban Decay made a limited number, so this one may be harder to get your hands on than their previous palettes. The official release date is Tuesday January 31st, so that’s when you can find them at Sephora and Ulta stores, although both already have them available on their websites. I spoke to my favorite Sephora consultant yesterday, and she says your best bet is to buy online, because as far as she knows not all stores will be getting the palette.


So that’s what I’ll be doing today after work. Once I get it, I’ll do a review and show you guys some swatches and lots of tutorials of course =) Until then, please try to control yourselves people! I don’t wanna hear any stories about you guys going out there and rioting over these eye shadow palettes. Ok, that’s not true. Because the thought of seeing something like that on the news is absolutely hilarious.

I’ve been getting tons of requests for more looks using the Too Faced Natural Eye Kit, so I figured I do another one with a little purple in the mix for good measure! Let me know what you guys think, and feel free to leave requests and such in the comment section below!
