Paul & Joe 20% off!

Today I went on a Paul & Joe hunt with Ann [mamegoma fun]!!

We went to Rowland Heights, a city not far from us in California. She noticed that they carried P&J products so we went to get our P&J cherries popped! Yay!! Lo and behold...right now their products are 20% off!! So if you're in the area you should really stop by!! They had the new summer lip glosses and lots of face products and about 10 different lipsticks. They had a pretty good selection from what I saw. The only fall was that they didn't have any more of the blush beads from the Bambi collection :[

Here's the address:

Lavender Beauty [in YES plaza]

I hated how the SA was hovering over us like crazy as if we were going to steal stuff -_-!!

I got one of the new summer glosses and an eye gloss...I fell in love...I really didn't think I was going to like them but I ended up really liking the light purple one...it could even be worn by itself it's so pretty!

Pictures will hopefully be up tomorrow :]

They also had a couple of Hanskin BB creams and Anna Sui products..along with some other skin products. I only remember Jurlique...and I don't remember the rest...we were there for P&J :]

whoo hoo!! finally!

I am back!! No more finals and papers...just summer all the way :] Sorry it took so long, but after finals were over I was still hustling and bustling around...graduations and parties and work...man...this week will be a little less hectic, so hopefully I can post more. Here's a couple of pictures of me and my sister messing around in the car waiting for the high school graduation. She had a ton of friends graduating and I had a couple...they were freshmen when I was a senior. I feel so old :[

Yay!! Me and fellow makeup blogger, Ann aka mamegoma fun :]

Weirdos

I used...I believe my dior palettes --holiday and parisian lights and Benefit creaseless shadow in...not skinny jeans...but that other one that came in that girl's night in package :] haha sorry!

Cream Cup Mac cremesheen on my lips...i love this pinky nude color!

Okay...so now that I have some time...I will be announcing my CONTEST THIS WEEK!! So look out for that!! I'm still deciding on the rules and what not :] Yay!

Aya's presents and my haul

So before we even knew Aya was going to come visit the states, I wanted to do a swap with her because I was dying to get one of the Jill Stuart blush palettes that Fuz had hauled.  It was just so pretty and girly! lol!!  Once Aya found out that she was going to visit, I told her to just bring the palette with her [I could wait and be a good girl!] because shipping made no since when we could just meet up!! Yay!

Isn't the bag itself cute?!

I asked her to bring one of the hair sweeper to the side thing a mabobs because my Marukai is lame and doesn't carry them :p  I just recently used the hair thingy even though I've had it for a few weeks...I kept forgeting to open it!  She got me palette 06 Fresh Apricot.

Umm hello...gorgeous?! 

I love the colors!  I haven't even used it yet...it's too pretty to use!  The brush is super soft!

And of course this crazy girl threw in all of these extras!  I got spoiled!!

I am dyingggg to use these palettes!!  Canmake and Kirakira!!

My VERY small haul from Sephora: Apple Promegranate [?] Body Scrub because I am obsessed with them ever since I used the sample I got from Tia...love!  A Sephora sharpener...my sharpeners ate up my MUFE aqua eyes pencil...not that I love it that much anyways but still!!  People said this was acutally good..it fits regular size and larger pencils...we shall see...and then I got a Sephora Black eye kohl pencil.  I really wanted to retractable one but they didn't have any more in black :[

As if Aya's presents were not enough...she insisted on getting me the Benefit Girl's Night In package.  All I did was drive her around!!  I love it Aya!!  Thank you!!  Now I can try the creaseless shadows :]

Okay...enough hauls...no more till I hit pan on five products!!

aya visits!!

*picture heavy!!

I am FINALLY blogging about Aya's visit...which was a few weeks ago lol.  I got to meet Irodori since she was here on a little vacation.  She was staying REALLY close by..and I mean like...10-15 minutes so you know we had to meet up!!  I always imagined her to be taller, but she was this cute, little Japanese girl with a HUGE personality!  I absoulutely love her!!

Andy and I took her around and first we hit up Melody's Makeup Outlet store since the CCO was out of the way.  She did DAMAGE to that store!!

Andy was our personal photographer for the day :]

Swatching...

more swatching..

Yes...she IS holding a basket for all her goodies!

Then we hit up Santa Monica.  We had to grab some food since we were hungry and we ate at this cute Italian restaurant on 3rd St. Promenade.  This sweetie treated us to lunch...and we all ordered the same Chicken pasta plate! LOL!!  It was freaken good!!

Then we hit up Sephora...which was pretty big compared to some other ones I've been to.  My hauls will be posted soon!!

Here she is getting foundation tested!

This is me trying to find ANOTHER black eye pencil...the MUA suggested their Sephora Kohl pencils, and I've heard some good things so I was interested...and for the price I was in love!  More about that laterrrrr

It was getting chilly, and before we went to Venice Beach [about 5 mins down PCH], we ran into Forever21 and she grabbed a jacket :]  and some other cute things of course :]

It was chilly!!  There were potheads everywhere!!  It smelled of pot and hippies...yum.

Look as this crazy guy on roller blades playing a guitar!!  He wanted a tip from Andy since he got snapped but we had no cash :p

How cute is this?!  Her very own store at Venice Beach!

There were tattoo parlors galore!  I really want one, and Aya has some really cool ones!!  But still...I'm too scared!  

I am so very glad that I got to meet this crazy, fun gal!!  I can't wait for her to come back and when I come to Japan we are going to rock the streets!!  I hope you had as much fun as I did!!  Thanks for the goodies that I absolutely loveeee!!!

I'll post next on my small haul at Sephora and the goodies Aya brought from Japan just for me!!  This was before I said I would haul anymore before hitting pan on five products!!  Yes..I am going to take that challenge with you Katie!!  Hopefully I can do it...LOL!!  Are there any rules on what is included/excluded? :p

banquet/update

i know, i know i have NOT been updating!!  I promise though after this SATURDAY I will be posting more because that's the day of my last finals.  Yes, I have my finals on Saturday because they are common finals...eww.  Anyways, I just wanted to update with the outfit I wore to a banquet we went to this past Saturday.  

I wore a very tight black dress from American Apparel...I'm not used to wearing something so tight...but Andy said it looked good...so...it couldn't have been that bad :p  OOhh and I was TALL!!  I'm barely 5'3 and Andy is 6 ft....so it was nice to not tippy toe to kiss him :p  Don't really remember what I wore on my face...I just know I used my Ammo palette and Dior palette :]  Yup!

us in the restaurant :]

me and Andy's bff

and meeee! lol. 

Again, I will be posting after my finals are done :]  Thanks for being patient!
