Swatches: Black Rose Minerals Luna Collection

So Rosa from Black Rose Minerals was super awesome and volunteered to make a collection for me when I asked if anyone would be interested! I just thought it would be awesome to have a collection come out on my birthday since it’s my 30th birthday and it’s January 1st! :D The colors she made are beautiful. I did quick swatches with the samples she sent and they don’t do them justice at all. They all have gorgeous sparks which I didn’t pick up well. But I wanted to get sort of a sneak peek of them up.

There are four shades! Luna, Blood Moon, Lunar Reflection and Lunar Shower. They’re sheer shades with lots of sparks and blood moon has a beautiful shift. I really wanted sort of celestial/ethereal shades and she definitely came through. Over primer they’re pretty, but over Glitter Glue they really shine. Luna is this pretty ethereal purple with multi-colored sparks. Blood Moon is a lovely purple with red sparks and a reddish/purple shift. Lunar Reflection is kind of a shade between gold and silver and it has silver sparks. And then there is Lunar Shower. It’s gorgeous. It’s a sheer wispy white with multi-colored sparks. Really I love them all. I can’t wait to get full size jars! Rose is also being super awesome and going to send a set to give away. So keep your eye out for that. :D

And this is why I shouldn’t edit photos while sick and foggy from meds. I labeled lunar shower and lunar reflection wrong. :frustrated: Derp.

Wordless Wednesday: Boy

Have you tried de Leon Cosmetics yet?

I saw some swatches of their lip products a couple of months back and *loved* them. However I completely forgot about them until today. Whoops. They’re based in Australia and have different lip products, eyeshadow, foiling medium and primer. I think that’s it. They’re a bit pricey but their products look amazing. They offer lip gloss and colored lip balm in the same shades and there are currently four shades that I would die for. I think later this month if I can I’m going to place a sample order just to try them to see which ones I really want. They’re beautiful. The shades I’m lusting after are #01 Looks better in red – lipstick & lipgloss, #04 Let the wookie win – lipstick & lipgloss, #13 I aim to misbehave – lipstick & lipgloss and #75 Maybe he’s over her – lipstick & lipgloss. They’re beautiful. They just released some new shades today(which is why I was reminded about them). Let the wookie win and Maybe he’s over her are two of the shades they added today. The photos below are from their shop and show the gloss on the left and lipstick on the right. :)

So has anyone tried their lippies? What do you think? Is it worth the price? =]

Christmas 2011 through hipstamatic!

:( I didn’t realize my hipstamatic film got changed. Stupid shakey changey thingy. So these are all dark. :( I didn’t realize it had changed until all the presents were opened. So poop. But at least I got photos! My mom came up and watched Fumiko open presents too! She’s still recovering from having a stent put in her main artery so she gets tired and exhausted easily. But it was nice that she was able to come up and partake in christmas presents! Now she’s downstairs resting with Willow. :)

So presents!
Fumiko got some nice things. :D

  1. From Kai and I she got a Dead Tired Draculaura doll, and a Draculaura and Count Fabulous plushie.
  2. From Mamoo she got a Mad Science Lagoona Blue doll and a Lagoona Blue and Neptuna Plushie.
  3. From Grandma Sue and Grandpa Tom[1. They are actually Sascha's biological grandparents but Fumiko adores them and they are grandma and grandpa to her. :D ] in Michigan she got a cute shirt, skirt, pants and a kitty hat and mittens. :D
  4. From Dawn she got a cute Hello Kitty plate and fork and spoon set.

So she got some nice goodies. For her birthday we got her a Starlite pillow pet[2. Which I'm seriously thinking about stealing.] and a Sweet 1600 Clawdeen Wolf Monster High doll. We’ve checked at so many stores for monster high dolls of any kind and there were none, anywhere. I found this one when I went to get a japanese beer from Kai. It was seriously the last doll and she was on sale for $22. :D Fumiko really wanted the Draculaura, Frankie Stein or C.A. Cupid Sweet 1600 dolls but I can’t find them anywhere in stores and their prices are jacked up online. :( But I’m sure she’ll like the one we got her anyways. We’ll just work on getting the other ones later. Her birthday is on the 31st, then mine is on the 1st, then Kai’s is on the 7th, and his mom’s is on the 21st I think? Lots of January birthdays. I’m still not sure what cupcakes I’m going to do for her birthday and we still have to go get hello kitty themed birthday stuff. But yeah. Today was nice.

Kai got these awesome soft, fuzzy pants from his mom and a star wars light saber chap stick that lights up. haha I got him a bloodstone pendulum and his star wars game. I got a pair of lotus earrings from his mom which are awesome and I love them. She also got us an awesome new shower head. :D Kai used his new phone upgrade on my phone line so he got me a white iPhone for christmas. It’s seriously awesome and I don’t know how I lived without hipstamatic. :O Santa also brought Fumiko all sorts of goodies. Hello kitty crayons, tattoos, a coloring book, a coloring thing that rolls out and you can cut off individual coloring things, hello kitty, chococat and keroppi socks and some candy. She’s been super happy and calm and sitting quietly playing with her dolls. Though at one point the Neptuna plushie was a zombie and Draculaura and Lagoona Blue had to murder her. o.O

No christmas dinner today. It was not in our budget and I am not up to cooking all that much anymore. :( Kai’s been doing most of the cooking and I’ve basically been eating steamed broccoli, roasted brussels sprouts and carrots, and sauteed spinach with lemon juice. Not much is agreeing with me lately. :(

So yeah. It’s been a nice day. :) I hope everyone is having a wonderful day and staying safe! :h: haha and now Fumiko is watching monster high. XD
