Added Givenchy and NARS to my list…
I want everything MAC so I don’t add MAC items to my wants list, but I do add non-MAC items to it. I call my makeup wants list “My Wantages”. I want and I want , but I can’t always have so I just add things that I really want at the time and hope to be able to purchase it one day. I also go back over my list from time to time and scratch things off because I’ve learned about something better.
OK so on to the two things I really want right now and have been thinking about for the past month already. I am late on this, but I am some what new to makeup so forgive me…I am really wanting a Givenchy Phenomen’eyes mascara badly. There is something about that wand that I love when I look at it. I saw Lauren Luke and Samantha from Pixiwoo (on YouTube) using this mascara in their tutorials so that’s how I learned about it. On pay day I’m going to fly over to Sephora and pick it up right away for sure. Price: $28.00

The other thing that I really want is the NARS Scorching Sun Eyeshadow Duo. I have really been loving oranges for the past month so I went looking for more orangey types of makeup and came across this duo. I did have a look see at Off the Page by MAC, but it is an OK orange color – but not as vibrant as any of the colors in Scorching Sun. I’m still going to pick that eyeshadow up still, but it’s nothing like Scorching Sun at all. The left side of the duo is a shimmery light orange color and the right side is shimmery orangey red color, but much more on the orange side A little too orangey of a duo, but that’s OK with me. I must have it and when I do get it I’ll sport it during the summertime. Price: $32.00

That’s all (for now) folks!
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*
