Welcome to the Circus!

So I have 4 weeks until my shows hit Cali for Britney's Circus tour.  It's crazy to think of the shows I've already been to (Sacramento, San Jose, LA#1, LA#2, Anaheim#1, Anaheim#2, Oakland, and Vegas).  I thought those couple of weeks were hectic and chaotically fun.  The intensity of all of this is amazing and it's great to see the beauty in life through your passions.

Now I'm getting ready for 4 more shows: LA, San Diego, and both shows in Vegas.  

My mind is all over the place trying to get things ready and in order.  Here's an idea of what's in store for me:
  1. Fly out to LA Wednesday 9/23
  2. LA concert that night
  3. San Diego concert the following day Thursday 9/24
  4. Disneyland that Friday 9/26 from opening to closing (which is around midnight)
  5. Get in the car and drive to Vegas as soon as we leave Disneyland
  6. Vegas show #1 Saturday 9/26
  7. Vegas show #2 Sunday 9/27
  8. Fly home the following Monday 9/28
I'll be posting pics of some of the clothes for this trip :) 

Monday Deliveries...

Ahh the dreaded Monday has brought me 2 deliveries...

One from Sephora and the other from CoastalScents.

Here's a list of what I've ordered from each:

SEPHORA
  • NARS Lip Lacquer in Hot Wired
  • YSL Rouge Volupt Lipstick in #7 Lingerie Pink
  • YSL Rouge Volupt Lipstick in #1 Nude Beige
  • YSL Rouge Pur Lipstick in #141 Pink Satin
  • YSL Rouge Pur in Lipstick #146 Romantic Pink
CoastalScents
  • 28 Piece Eye Shadow Neutral Palette
  • Contour and Blush Palette
  • 10 Piece Professional Blush Palette


I haven't tried any of them yet. These are all new products for me and new colors that were recommended.  I did try a little of the Lingerie Pink lipstick from YSL and it's a beautiful light yet vibrant shade of pink.  It will definitely look good with the smokey eyes that I love.

I know it's been a while since my last post so I'm updating things now haha.

I received my shipment from Saks yesterday...  I didn't order too much from there. Just 4 items:

-SK II Skin Essence 
-NARS Multiple in Copacabana*
-Dolce and Gabbana Bronzer in Sunshine
-Dolce and Gabbana Blush in Provocative

I've used NARS multiples before in Orgasm and Copacabana and I love using Copacabana for my highlighting.

After seeing an amazing facial routine by Adrian, I bought the SK II Skin Essence and I tried it as soon as I could yesterday.  It is AMAZING!  My skin is so soft afterwards and it feels tight. I'm excited about adding this to my skincare routine.  It is definitely worth the money :)

I bought the Dolce and Gabbana bronzer and blush after watching Lorraine TheCurrentCustom's review on the wearing the combination of the two.  The gold compacts are so incredibly beautiful.  

I have a couple more shipments coming in. I'm trying to get everything before Miss Britney's Circus tour starts up with the 2nd leg of the tour.  Adding another 4 shows to my count.  Time to start putting looks together.

Ahhh on to some more Twilight...I'm ADDICTED!  Thank God I'm not one of those 8 year olds going crazy over it haha.  I feel for legitimate being older and loving it :)

Adios Sexy Dolls!

MASSIVE haul....

I am a beauty addict, whore, collector..whatever way you choose to label it.  I love, love love makeup.  I view it as a form of art and just having that ability to change up your look all the time excites me.  Last week I went to get ready and noticed that a majority of my main, basic products were missing.  So I ordered a bunch of stuff from MAC.  I had taken some time away from using MAC products because I didn't have that much of a collection from them and I wasn't really sure how to use some of the items.  Lame reasoning I know. Here's a list of  what I ordered, a majority of it was recommended after watching some tutorials and haul videos.

MAC:
  • Pro Eyeshadow Palette x15
  • Pro Blush Palette x6
  • Matte
  • Fast Eye Response Eye Cream*
  • Paint Pot in Rubenesque
  • Fluidline Eye-liner Gel in Blacktrack*
  • Technakohl Eye-liner in Graphblack
  • Lip Conditioner Stick SPF 15
  • Liquid Eye liner in Boot Black
  • Satin Lipstick in Snob
  • Lustre Lipstick in Viva Glam V
  • Eyeshadow in Woodwinked
  • Eyeshadow in Sumptuous Olive
  • Eyeshadow in Brule
  • Eyeshadow in Mulch
  • Eyeshadow in Patina
  • Eyeshadow in Paradisco
  • Eyeshadow in All That Glitters
  • Eyeshadow in Mythology
  • Blush in Fleur Power
  • Blush in Frankly Scarlet
  • Blush in Sunbasque
  • Blush in Well Dressed
  • Bulk Wipes 100 sheets*
haha I told you it was massive...there's still a couple other colors that I want to get, but I figured those could wait for now.  The items with the * by them are products that I've used before and absolutely LOVE. 

I know I bought about 3 eye-liners, but I'm pretty picky about them on my eyes.  I love to use liquid liner on my upper eyelid. Sometimes I go over it with a pencil or I use a pencil in the corner of my eye to ensure that I have good coverage from where my upper liner and lower liner meet up. I also HATE it when your lower liner smudges.  I tend to go throughout my days rarely checking up on my makeup or re-touching.  I tried out the gel liner for my lower liner and it's absolutely amazing.  I hardly ever had any raccoon eyes.  The wipes are always a requirement in my routine.  They just make everything so much easier and they don't bother my skin at all.  

I'll be doing another post later on my Sephora haul....

Bye dolls!

Starting off!

So over the last couple of days I've been reviewing beauty hauls and tutorials and have come across plenty of blogs from some lovely ladies.  I've decided to start my own blog and just share myself to the world and what I love about life.  

In here you'll find everything that I'm passionate about. This includes makeup, skin care, fashion, traveling, music....you kinda get the idea.  I'll probably even go off about things I hate and pet peeves. 

Hopefully ya'll will enjoy this as much as i do :)
