Perfect Foundation

| | 0 comments

I'm actually so excited right now lol. Finally I've found a foundation that actually matches my skin tone. "MAC's MatchMaster Foundation 6.0" I had heard so many good thing about it but as people close to me know that I haven't owned any foundation for about 3 years now, I literally just use so much concealer and the Minerlize Skinfinish and I'm off. When I did look for a foundation (tried samples from Nars, Bobbi Brown and MAC) either I have to mix two different shades, wasn't the coverage I was looking for or the foundation had too much of an orange tone to it. But finally now I have my perfect foundation :D

FINALLLLYYYYYYY!!! lol

"Shoe Game Was Awesome"

| | 0 comments

A woman's most overt secret is her... SHOE ADDICTION!! I used to think I had a problem, literally every shopping trip I would buy a new pair of shoes. Today I put about 10 pairs on eBay (some not even worn), this is when I knew my problem was deep lol. On top of that I have no space to put most of my shoes. I cannot wait till I have a room dedicated to my shoes only!!!

Christina Aguilera i love the organisation.
