About a month ago I went to Toronto and shared this post about what I didn't buy.
Today I'm revealing what I did buy. Prepare to be underwhelmed, but they made me happy.
I was trying to stick to my budget so I picked up a few things I needed for make-up/skincare:
 |
| the new pore refining treatment |
 |
| my favourite primer |
 |
| Hot Tahiti lipstick. It's the perfect coral for me. |
Then I made my obligatory H & M visit and found the perfect dress to go with my nude shoes!
I think it's kind of FF, don't you think?
Aren't they a perfect match?
I found these shoes at Suzy Shier last summer.
Then I found this coral sweater. FF may be on an orange kick, but I'm digging coral.
I know it doesn't look that great on the hanger, but it actually hangs on the body quite nicely.
Then I went to Winners and found an excellent deal on a Heys featherweight hard shell carry-on.
I got the teal swirl from the exotic series and I love it!
Also at Winners I discovered a new brand I like: Numph
it's a fun Danish line whose tag is 'make an entrance'.
This is the Numph dress I bought:
So far I've worn it to work a few times and a funeral, poor dress, it's not in for an exciting life.
Wow! You got heaps of things! I was wondering where you'd gone. Glad you're back.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the dresses, especially the first one. I can't believe you made it match the shoes so perfectly! Awesome. So what's the primer? I'll assume you spread it across your face before you paint. Yes?
ReplyDeleteI think maybe you should do some makeup lessons...maybe a vlog or something. I'd sign up for an online class.

FringeGirl, I keep thinking that I should do a make-up post, but then I get all self conscience about looking retarded on a vlog, because trust me, I will look retarded. But you may have inspired me. I'll get working on it. And yes, you paint your face like you pant your walls. Clean it (cleanser & toner) Moisturize (ok, you don't do that to your walls), Prime it, then Paint it (foundation). The primer smoothes your skin, brightens, absorbs oils so your foundation lasts longer and creates a barrier keeping your moisturizer in skin and make-up on top.
ReplyDeleteMMMC. Thanks for the welcome, glad to be back.
MAC!!! Don't tell Chanel. FF is preggers are you going to copy that too?????
ReplyDeleteSometimes I think I should wear some makeup. I had a dream last night I was applying black liquid eyeliner (like I used to years ago) ... but that was before the wrinkle monster tackled me ... I don't want to look like mutton parading as a lambie.
ReplyDeleteHey, don't be self-conscious. We the people who don't really do make-up well need you! Vlog away. I promise we won't laugh. Maybe I'll have to give primer a shot. My eye make-up really never stays on all day. I don't where it goes, but when I look in the mirror, it's gone.

MMMC "Mutton parading as a lambie"!!! that is the best line I've heard in a long time!
