Sorry It's Been Awhile..

Thanks for everyone who stops by. I know I haven't posted since I started this thing.. I meant to but got caught up in life, I suppose.
Another downside is my camera broke so I was not able to swatch like I wanted to.
But life goes on :) I will update as soon as I can.. and on a beauty note, I finally got my bottle of Essie's Ballet Slippers. This is one that I had, gave away and wanted back. Lol, it is a streaky mess but I love the whitish pink color it gives off.

Cars were red, Hair was blonde...

Hey, thanks for checking this out! This blog is only a tiny baby right now, but it will grow quickly. :) I will post pictures and reviews of cosmetics, hair products, skin care items, nail polishes.. anything and everything related to beauty! :)
This is something that I have wanted to do for awhile and for some reason have been putting it off but here I am now!
First let me tell you a little about myself.. there was a time when I believed that cars were red, hair was blonde, lips were glossed, eyes sparkled. I was young and loved to shop and play with beauty stuff!
Fast forward to 2010, after a botch color job and color correction, I decided that my hair should be red. It sounds stupid but it was a huge change, as I colored my hair blonde for years! But the red brought out a different side in me. I know, it's hair color but whatever, I feel different and it made me think of the make-up that I own, which colors now work. This led me to think of the make up and stuff I bought over the years..
I used to be a high end princess.. only the best of everything.. fashion, hand bags, make-up, perfumes, everything. But than the economy went down and I realized that most of this was charged with money I did not have. See, back than the credit card companies thought it was smart to give a college kid a $12,000 credit line but whatever..
My collection has still expanded but now I mostly shop for drug store items with a few high ends mixed in. A sign of the times, I guess. But this resulted in me finding many dupes, which I will compare. And there will be both high and low end reviews, swatches, etc. here. I hope you visit again soon as this page grows.
Thanks for coming by.
