TokiDoki Travel Makeup BagPrice: $28.00 and I had to have it.  I initially bought the large hanging travel makeup bag (Price: $42.00), but I didn’t see anyway I would be able to use it so I swapped it out.

Inside!  Sorry!  I started using it the day I bought it so excuse all of my junk inside.

Harajuku Lovers Sun Cuties Pencil CasePrice: $14.00 which is idea to carry brushes and liners  or anything long and slim in, but I find that carrying my day to day things in it like how I use the bag above works well too.  I just have to take less stuff.  Cute bag!

NARS Lipgloss in Turkish DelightPrice: $24.00 and they say this is Kim Kardashian’s “go to” gloss.  I don’t like it so I think I’m going to take it back.

Illamasqua Dystopia Collection

Pre-orders for this collection started on 9/7/09 and the release date for sometime this Fall. I don’t know. I should have checked, but anyhow, I can’t afford it. What I would like to get from this collection is the Liquid Metal shadow though – I love the texture and how this product goes on my skin – lovely. I have yet to get the two Liquid Metal shadows from the Sirens collection, but I will get them.

I watched a few gurus on YouTube do some Dystopia and Dystopia-type tutorials and although most are not wearable in daily, regular life…I found them interesting anyway (of course). The best tutorial was made by Sam from Pixiwoo (love both Sam and Nicola equally – subscribe to them). Sweet!

I wanted to post these promo images of the new products from the Dystopia collection from the Illamasqua site onto my blog because I love how their product images are photographed/enhanced and I love their whole message to tell you the truth…”makeup for your alter ego”. It truly is. Love love love…*singing*

Illasmasqua at Sephora!

I and everybody else found about this amazing news on July 11, 2009, but I wanted to reiterate it here on my new blog because it belongs! I am very excited about this. I am really dying for those two Liquid Metal eyeshadows from their Sirens collection and few of their nail varnishes. I haven’t ever seen an Illamasqua product in real life let alone wore it, but I have been hearing great reviews about this company. I am so happy to announce…after it has been announced already (lol)…that Sephora.com and the Sephora store at Times Square in NYC will be launching their first set of Illamasqua products next week ! Yay!

What’s exactly on my list?? Here goes…

I also want this eyeshadow in the color “Enrapture as well.   These are the two main products I want from Illamasqua.  I will also pick up a few nail varnishes as I’ve stated before.  I am so very happy!  Illamasquas comes to Sephora.  Sweet!
