OOTD - Makeup Shopping :D

When I think shopping, I think comfort! (hahaha hire me, o Ye radio jingle producers :| ). For this reason, I chose a dress and flats.

Wake Up to Make Up

Hi Guys! <br /> <br /> I wouldn't have described myself as a makeup person, but I recently started following some makeup/beauty blogs and they've opened my eyes to the wonderful world of makeup.<br /> <br /> So yesterday I took my lazy self out of the house in search of some much needed additions to my makeup bag. I needed 4 goodies from the sleek range; the brow kit, the face contour kit, true color lipstick in "naked" and the "oh so special" eyeshadow palette. I found NONE! Not one of these things are available in any sleek store in Lagos. It was heartbreaking. However, I got some things that I didn't know I needed, but I apparently did. LOL. Or maybe the salespeople are just really good at their jobs :(<br /> <br /> <br /> Here are some pictures of the things I got.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-u5F3fQ6Gn6s/UDoZ6X8Xm4I/AAAAAAAAALI/G5YHGu-9Ggc/s480/Photo%252520Aug%25252026%25252C%2525202012%25252013%25253A28.jpg" target="_blank" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter" height="462" id="blogsy-1345988455428.7434" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-u5F3fQ6Gn6s/UDoZ6X8Xm4I/AAAAAAAAALI/G5YHGu-9Ggc/s347/Photo%252520Aug%25252026%25252C%2525202012%25252013%25253A28.jpg" width="347"></a></div>I got the superior cover pressed powder in "Biscuit". I've been looking for an everyday powder for a while now, my Mac studio fix is a tad too heavy for this purpose, but this is perfection!<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-hxbwoa2FMoQ/UDoaJJMpFwI/AAAAAAAAALQ/cPXFj3jw71c/s480/Photo%252520Aug%25252026%25252C%2525202012%25252013%25253A28.jpg" target="_blank" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter" height="469" id="blogsy-1345988455432.0415" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-hxbwoa2FMoQ/UDoaJJMpFwI/AAAAAAAAALQ/cPXFj3jw71c/s352/Photo%252520Aug%25252026%25252C%2525202012%25252013%25253A28.jpg" width="352"></a></div>Powder Brush and Angled Eyebrow Filler for the brow kit that I didn't find :(<br /> <br />  <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-V9cj0KfLxIY/UDoamWH2VjI/AAAAAAAAALY/4YneANLkjlg/s480/Photo%252520Aug%25252026%25252C%2525202012%25252013%25253A28.jpg" target="_blank" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter" height="501" id="blogsy-1345988455447.0881" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-V9cj0KfLxIY/UDoamWH2VjI/AAAAAAAAALY/4YneANLkjlg/s376/Photo%252520Aug%25252026%25252C%2525202012%25252013%25253A28.jpg" width="376"></a></div> I got Maybelline eyeshadow in "chocolate mousse" (left) and "bronze glitz" (right). <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-oya3jJCa0D0/UDoa8UUdzLI/AAAAAAAAALg/x7dtM1h5fY8/s480/Photo%252520Aug%25252026%25252C%2525202012%25252013%25253A06.jpg" target="_blank" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter" height="471" id="blogsy-1345988455445.7048" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-oya3jJCa0D0/UDoa8UUdzLI/AAAAAAAAALg/x7dtM1h5fY8/s353/Photo%252520Aug%25252026%25252C%2525202012%25252013%25253A06.jpg" width="353"></a></div> Sleek twist up pencil in "chestnut" for lining my lips when I wear ruby woo, Jordana twist up pencils in "Seagreen" and "Denim blue" for some waterline glam, and sleek kohl eyeliner in black.<br /> <br />  <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-gBccFwKuVok/UDobC-5by9I/AAAAAAAAALo/L_eBPIXfBWI/s480/Photo%252520Aug%25252026%25252C%2525202012%25252013%25253A06.jpg" target="_blank" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter" height="480" id="blogsy-1345988455405.2139" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-gBccFwKuVok/UDobC-5by9I/AAAAAAAAALo/L_eBPIXfBWI/s360/Photo%252520Aug%25252026%25252C%2525202012%25252013%25253A06.jpg" width="360"></a></div> I've used elf's eyelid primer for two days now, and it's like magic...keeps the eyeshadow intact and it's too cheap!!!!!! <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-nYNZoVpZMMQ/UDogNHV5eSI/AAAAAAAAAMY/ib1fjPFkn6s/s597/Photo%252520Aug%25252026%25252C%2525202012%25252013%25253A45.jpg" target="_blank" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter" height="450" id="blogsy-1345988455416.6077" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-nYNZoVpZMMQ/UDogNHV5eSI/AAAAAAAAAMY/ib1fjPFkn6s/s300/Photo%252520Aug%25252026%25252C%2525202012%25252013%25253A45.jpg" width="300"></a></div> <br /> <br /> This blush is by casabella and it's "sunkist'. I had actually picked sleek's "Sahara" but the saleswoman asked me to take this instead if I was going for a neutral color. I was a bit skeptical at first, I mean it looks terribly orange, but the second saleswoman recommended it too. Who was I to refuse? It's as awesome as they said. Honest. <br /> <br /> I'm definitely going to be having fun trying to look more like a lady :)<br /> <br />  <br /> <br />

Weekend Roundup in Photos

The past weekend was AWESOME!!! I ate, had fun, and ate some more. If I had to sum up my weekend in one sentence, I'd say It was filled with lots of bright colors, Red lips in honor of my love for Rita Ora and RiRi my lover...Natural nudes and chocolatey goodness :D<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-BOTpfBmDLfk/UDX7JvHDO-I/AAAAAAAAAKo/rCUcsl96xMQ/s640/blogger-image--438843612.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-BOTpfBmDLfk/UDX7JvHDO-I/AAAAAAAAAKo/rCUcsl96xMQ/s640/blogger-image--438843612.jpg" /></a></div>

So Inspired!

Yup, I was feeling really inspired over the weekend...I dressed up, took a bunch of pictures and went to see a movie (Total Recall) with a friend. <br /> <br /> The highlight of the movie was the popcorn at silverbird. Honestly. The movie was grey...I felt like splashing some color in it...and it was like, non-stop movement, so much action I had a headache and had to go to the pharmacy in the middle of it. It wasn't all that bad tho, I laughed a couple of times. <br /> <br /> I didn't take pictures with my friend, I wonder why...considering she looked hot and her hair was sooooo pretty! Oh well, some other time. <br /> <br /> Top: My Mum's / Jeans: Mr. Price / Shoes: New Look / Bag: Random / Neckpiece: c/o Ziffy's<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-jhQn84gSyxU/UCpO0ZRISgI/AAAAAAAAAJk/Wz_D3SYRd-E/s640/blogger-image--2001266065.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-jhQn84gSyxU/UCpO0ZRISgI/AAAAAAAAAJk/Wz_D3SYRd-E/s640/blogger-image--2001266065.jpg" /></a></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-QUqBE-yZOZ8/UCpO6w0QezI/AAAAAAAAAJs/Z7AcCmcL_us/s640/blogger-image--198994314.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-QUqBE-yZOZ8/UCpO6w0QezI/AAAAAAAAAJs/Z7AcCmcL_us/s640/blogger-image--198994314.jpg" /></a></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/--mvRsLG2kog/UCpSXdYeaOI/AAAAAAAAAKM/EgElQD7TBiQ/s640/blogger-image--1610728469.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://lh6.googleusercontent.com/--mvRsLG2kog/UCpSXdYeaOI/AAAAAAAAAKM/EgElQD7TBiQ/s640/blogger-image--1610728469.jpg" /></a></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-CsCP_P50fpo/UCpSaNGjihI/AAAAAAAAAKU/yJhcnwUHRRw/s640/blogger-image-1869550399.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-CsCP_P50fpo/UCpSaNGjihI/AAAAAAAAAKU/yJhcnwUHRRw/s640/blogger-image-1869550399.jpg" /></a></div>
