I finally broke down...

Yes, I finally purchased a NARS blush! Whatever took me this long, I don't know, but I finally have joined the ranks!! ;-) Can you tell I'm a little excited about this?? Maybe.... but to get back to the amazing makeup, I just got my blush in the mail today, and have swatched it on my hand, but have not yet worn it! Tomorrow is the day, and I obviously intend on using it and letting you know how it goes!!
I ordered the color 'madly', which is described as a seashell pink, I believe. It's a gorgeous very neutral light slightly pink color, which has a little shimmer to it. It looks amazing on my hand, and it has stayed on my hand for hours, I'm sure wearing it tomorrow will go well!
I also got a free gift with purchase, a mini illuminator in the famous 'orgasm' shade. I have also swatched this on my hand, and it's gorgeous! I think I'm going to have too much fun with these! I did take pictures, and I'll upload them and give you a full report on their wear tomorrow or the next day!
Stay Tuned! :-D

So I tried to get a good swatch picture, but it didn't do the products justice whatsoever!! Madly is a gorgeous beige neutral color, perfectly pigmented, blends like a dream, and has quickly became one of my favorites!! I also love to layer blushes on top of this, usually just on the apples of my cheeks. A nice bright pink, purple, or peach. Such a great blush, I'm glad I got it!!

As for the illuminator, I haven't quite got the hang of that. It looks alright on me, but somehow I think it kind of blends too well and I blend it too sheer? I don't know, I have very fair skin and for some reason I can't see this as well on me!! But it is a gorgeous color, and I'll keep trying to make it work!!

I love online shopping!!

I know, I'm crazy, but I think waiting for and anticipating something awesome in the mail is great!!! I know for a fact I get this kind of rush passed down from my dad.... who is quite the online shopper himself!!! I'm sure he's so proud of me!! Haha, j/k.
So today I got a package from ups!! I only had to work a 1/2 day, and I totally made sure I had nothing else to do today but wait for my package at home!!! Maybe that's why I love online shopping, it makes me actually happy to be at home for a day!!! So I was off of work by 11, and my stuff arrived around 3!! I got a blush from mac.... and it is FABULOUS!!!
I got the shade mocha, which according to the website is a soft plum pink with a matte finish. And the website picture did not do it justice!! I never would have even thought to try this color out, but I remember from about 8 months ago or so that I had looked at this color at a mac counter with my mother, and I remember thinking how pretty that color was!! So here I am 8 months later, finally getting mocha, and loving it!!!
So there ya go, online shopping is one of the things I really appreciate now that I live in a small town.... :-)
