Spreading The Love

I really hope you all had a great holiday. Tell me your stories!

Here's to the end of 2010 and the fresh start of a new year! Hope it will be a good one, and I'm hoping everyone that I've met this year will continue to be around and ring in the new year with all of your beautiful faces. I really do appriciate all of you and I never would have imagined doing someting like this would bring me so close to so many amazing people.

In an effort to show my love and support for all of you, I've made a list of my favorite guys and gals I've come to meet in 2010. Some I've met on blogger, some I've met on Twitter, some are shop owners that I've come to know and really found out just how great you all really are.

If I left anyone out I will add you back in later, I promise. :)

So, spread the love and pass it on to always remember the great people of 2010.

Hugs 'n kisses,
Your pink haired friend.

Me + Blue





Mkay, so I finally caved in and bought one of these. I happened to have found them at my local Walmart and had to have this as soon as I saw it. It's a brilliant bright blue PACKED with yummy holo glitter! I normally don't like the color blue... on anything... but this polish is so pretty. It's one of the new Justin Beiber shades and is Walmart exclusive.

Rant: Don't freak out, it drives me crazy when people act like assholes just because it's someone they don't like or that it's not "cool" to like. Guess what? I could care less about this kid either way. Don't be all dramatic, there's no need for it. The more you overreact about NOT liking him you look like just as big of an ass as the people who kiss the ground he walks on. Grow the fuck up, I'm sick of hearing about it. /rant


A picture of my hands to show you what they actually look like. I was born with these horribly crooked hands and I get asked about them all the time and just thought I'd share. :p I happen to like them. When I put just my pinkies in the air and hold them up to my head I like to pretend I have horns. Tehee. :D

I still have a lot to post and it all just keeps snowballing! I'm kinda going through a personal dilema and have no idea what to do. It's nothing to do with my health, don't worry, I just tend to get myself into some messed up situations I guess you could say. Plus things have been crazy at work because of the holidays. Ugh, retail. Ugh, food. Ugh, stupid people.

I love you guys. I just wanted you to know that. <3

More Morgana Swatches?!

I just added four more pics to my Morgana Cryptoria swatch post. I have NO IDEA where they were on my hard drive when I posted the others, because I was going crazy looking for them! They were taken the day before the other swatches, so they look a little different. :)

PLUS! I just now figured out why my swatch pics look so much better on my computer before I crop them... I always just thought it was because I resize them from jumbo down to 800px but noooooo. It's the fact that I save them as JPEG when I should be saving them as PNG!

Lol, fail. -_-

WnW Holiday Palette Swatches!


My lovely package from Jill! Seriously, I cannot thank you enough. :) Many FOTDs to come once I feel a bit better!







Snow Sprite, Sugar Plum Fairy




Night Elf and the three liners that came with each palette. Purple came with Sugar Plum Fairy, silver came with Snow Sprite, and black came with Night Elf. :)

They're all so pretty I don't know which to play with first! A friend of mine suggested I do a cut crease and I think I'll be attempting that with Snow Sprite because I think it may be my favorite of these three palettes, which was totally unexpected for me since you guys know I'm not a fan of blue. :p

These are all the same amazing quality and pigmentation as the other WnW Color Icon shadows, which makes me so happy! Look at that red! I would have NEVER expected that to be so pigmented, holy shitballs.

Go check out Jill's blog, she does awesome looks, always has great swatches, nail of the days and so much more. Plus she's always such a sweetheart and just a good person to talk to. :)

Morgana Cryptoria Haul & Swatches!

EDIT: **Added the top four pictures!**

More yummies for today! Another Cyber Monday haul. :) All shadows were 50% off (!!!) and I HAD to pick some up that I'd been eyeing for a while.









Top, L-R: Shining Armor, Chivalry, Gauntlet, Alexandria
Bottom, L-R: Brew Haha, She Creature, Underworld, All Holos-Gleam


Trying to show the sparkle in All Holos Gleam.


I also picked up a lipstick in Rustic that I wanted for so long but was waiting until my next order to buy. It's a brown with STRONG green sparkle and shift, I love this so much!


Another sickly full face. Oh my. :p

Check them out!

I really like all of these and can't wait to wear them! Holy balls All Holos Gleam is fiiiiilled with glitter, which I couldn't really capture in pictures. Not gonna lie, these are some of the worst swatch pics I've ever taken. I just could not get any of them to show up they way they do in real life. The top row is pretty acurate, but them bottom just would not photograph the delicious sparkle and dimension. You'll just have to take my word for it. :p

I wish my swatches came out better, but it is do dark here right now and I'm not the best at taking pics to begin with. :p The "bright" colors were so washed out, trust me when I say these are knock-your-socks-off.
