Freaking Fab!

Freaking Fabulous!Oh my goodness!!!! This is soo exciting I'm practically squeeling like a little piglet! This is my first award from the "freaking fabulous" Sara, the makeup snob!

So the rules with this award are:
List five current obsessions and pass the award on to five more fabulous blogs. On your post of receiving this award, make sure you include the person that gave you the award and link it back to them. When you post your five winners, make sure you link them as well. Don’t forget to let your winners know they won an award from you by leaving a comment on their blog.

Ok ladies, here goes...

1. Nudes pumps! Obviously. It's not as easy as it sounds, some look like they belong on a grandma others look like they belong on a nun and the really nice ones cost waaaay more than I can afford. *deep sigh*

2. Waxing. I know it sounds kind of weird but I'd always go to the salon and since I got my own wax kit I want to wax everything on everyone! Ew right? Sorry!

3. Blogging. Um I wake up extra early and stay up really late to blog and read blogs and at work I come up with new blog topics and have officially started carrying my camera every where with me incase something happens and I need to blog about it.

4. Self tanning. I'm scared to death of wrinkles and sunspots, but I looove having that sexy summer glow. Thank Gd for Dove Energy Glow. It is the BEST self tanner I have every used, especially because my skin doesn't usually absorb self tanner colors. And let me tell you - I have tried TONS!

5. White Eyeliner. It sounds easy enough, eh just pick one up and go on your merry way. Well not so much. I don't want to spend a fortune because most likely this is a phase of mine, but I like the idea of having that bright eye look and it's much softer and less 'done up' than black. However, every single one (even some of the pricier ones) seem to practically want to rip your skin off. It's great on the back of my hand, but doesn't show up and dries out my waterline. Help me please!!!

I tag: Courtney, Juicy J, Helen, Michelle, and Tiff.

Nude pumps do sounds hot, but I can see where the trouble would come in... I love waxing too. haha. thats why you were asking about my brows,lol. I carry my camera too for the same reason, haha. White eyeliner is amazing. Ok yes pricer but the best I have used is Urban Decay yeyo 24/7 pencil you can put it on your waterline and it will stay put. Also mac has a pretty good one called fascinating. I use it on my lips too. Makes lipsticks even more true to color!

With most high end brands friends and family will be starting in the next month. I think Sept or oct is Sephoras and you get 25% off everything. Urban Decay will have one, etc... all leading up to christmas... just another friendly money saving tip! :)

Wow! Waxing? I am honestly scared! Kudos for you! And I am on the same level with you on blogging, sometimes I would constantly check my cellphone for updates! Weh heh heh =]

& Sorry, I can't help you too much with your eye liner dilemma, I might give you the wrong advice.

But anyways, congrats on getting the award~

Hello! Thanks for your sweet comment:) If you are looking for a white eyeliner, may i suggest Benefit's eye bright pencil? Its great for opening up the eyes!

Pop Champagne said...

hahaha waxing! Omg it's painful- and I find it more painful when I do it myself than when someone else does it for me at the salon! I guess cuz it's unexpected when they're going to pull the strips hehe!

Michélle said...

Aw, thank you for tagging me! :)
Love the waxing obsession! lol

Do you have a lot of nude pumps? I would LOVE to read a post on it, with lots of pictures. I'm starting to love that too and want to get a really classic pair, but I don't know what brand to get. Any suggestions? :)

@Sara – I started carrying my camera when I realized you carry your camera and thought, “hmm great idea.” Omg the eyebrow thing – I’m very good at eyebrows and if we lived any closer I would have offered to do them! I have noticed that the urban decay 24/7 liner have the most amazing staying power, and the waterproof MUFE ones, but I’m just too cheap to buy an eyeliner for $17. Thank you for the tips, I do appreciate it!

@Cheysser – Don’t be scared of waxing! It’s the best method of hair removal! And I purposely do not have blogger text or send me anything for this same reason.

@Funkiimonkee – hello hello!! I thought Benefit eye bright was a jumbo pencil so wouldn’t it come off quicker? I could be wrong and mixing it up with something else, either way, thank you for the suggestion.

@Pop Champagne – my skin is tough! My waxer always jokes with me “she’s Russian she can take the pain!” Maybe a little painful but definitely convenient when they’re too busy to schedule me.

@Michélle – You are welcome, you deserve it. I do not have a lot of nude pumps because I am in the process of finding the perfect pair. I do, however, have some nude Tahari flats you can find here >> http://prdctjunkie.blogspot.com/2009/07/lets-do-some-damage.html

I was reading your blog post and you mentioned you're looking for nude pumps. I bought a pair in May at Macy's by Nine West called "Rocha" in nude. They were aound $70, but I'm sure you can search online for lower prices. I LOVE these heels. They are so comfortable with a round-slightly pointed toe and go with any outfit.

Also, a good white eyeliner is Rimmel Soft Eye Kohl in 071 Pure White. It's really soft and super cheap in the drugstore.

Hope this helps your search for the perfect nude heel and white eyeliner!
