Hi everyone! October 5th is my unveiling for the red she said line from MAC. I plan on going but I also have work and a baby shower to go to. My time at the event is at 5:30 and I have work probably until 4pm then a baby shower to go to right after work so hopefully it'll all work out. Anyway, I checked out the pics from temptalia and it's not too amazing to me. The only thing I'm really interested in purchasing is the glitter pigments. I'm not sure if they are perms at the pro store so I need to check on that. If they are then I may skip them and get some e/s palettes. Only 2 palettes really speak out to me. But red doesn't tickle my fancy at all. Im a girl that buys for packaging and I've never liked the color red. But it is about product mainly so I'm sure I'll live through it. I dont know if I'll even get those since I'm saving my pennies for manish arora(seperate post to come!). These are the 2 palettes I'm looking into. Photos from temptalia.com

FOTD: Sept. 28, 2008
Whats up!?! So post after post with another photo of the day. Today was another neutral day look for work. Nothing fancy since again I managed to wake up late. I knocked out early from having a busy day yesterday but still didn't make it on time to do a bold look. Sleeping early for me is 10pm. I need to get use to waking up early since I will have all morning shifts right now. Work was tiring but fun since I work with awesome people. I have a lot of cleaning to do today so I decided to post this now and use this time as "me time". Please excuse the oily face and whatever l/g I have left on, which is virtually none. Lol! I took this when I got home from work so it's been a good 10 hrs or so. And one thing I have noticed is that MAC blush doesn't seem to last all day on me. Anyone else have this problem? But yet, I still love their blush but now I will just reapply throughout the day. Oh no tut again since I was rushing like always.

FOTD: Sept. 27, 2008
Hi everyone! I was meaning to post this yesterday but I was to pooped from work and outings afterwards. I went to a baby shower and decided to re-do my m/u. It was a very neutral day look for work since I woke up late but I wanted to bump it up a bit cause it was to blah for me. I like bold dramatic looks anytime of the day. I truly believe m/u has no rules, you just do what's comfy for yourself. I didn't do a tut since I was in a rush and running pretty late. It was a black smokey eye. My camera is pretty crappy so make of it what you will. ;)

Makeup Collection/Storage
Today was a chill day and I decided I would do a collection/storage edition. It's hot here in So Cal and nothing much to do. I don't watch much tv and I dont have cable so I pretty much stare at the computer a lot. Lol! I have been addicted to one other thing other than makeup lately...Nintendo ds! Specifically my new super mario bros. but the hubby has been stealing it from me every chance he gets but anyways, here are some pics of what I have and a video on it also since pics dont always do justice. I give much credit to aubrey- fafinettex3 for the storage cart idea. The bins I saw somewhere else, I think pinkpornstar1 on you tube. They were $1.97 for 3 or 4 sets of bins. Hope this helps some gals in how to store their makeup. Also, Im not doing this for bragging rights, its a way to show storage ideas and maybe some people will see things they like and want a review on it. If it wasn't for aubrey I would have never thought of a storage cart so thanks girl! You could get one at office depot for I think $34.99. I've also stopped hauling so much at a time because I feel my addiction is getting a little to crazy. M/u does expire and I dont want it all to go to waste. This insane amount for myself has only been collected within the last 6 months. Craziness I tell yah!?!
HAUL: Sept. 25, 2008
So today I did some hauling. Not a lot of damage. If you use to check out my vids on YT, trust me this was nothing compared to past hauls I've done. Lol! But anyways, MAC came out with a new launch today, Creme Sheen and Suite Array. And omgosh was Suite Array e/s such a dissapointment. People on YT and other blogs feel me on this one. They were NOT highly pigmented as their usual shadows. But they were at a good price, $16 for 2 shadows in the same casing brow shaders came in. But even with that pricing it wasn't worthy of a MAC label in my opinion. They did have good staying power from what the MA said. So I ended up skipping those and Creme Sheen (due to the fact I have 30+ l/s I still need to go thru). So here are some pics and swatches of what I did get. Oh and I stopped at target to get onsies for the lil one and ended up getting one of Napolean Perdis palettes, and let me tell you I am impressed with it! I plan on getting more. I picked up a small halloween bin and some acrylic rhinstones from the dollar bin at target too. I plan on using the bin for my face brushes and the stones for halloween. What a deal! Also I picked up Ly-Na pearl cream at seafood city for $2.79! I've never tried it before but Christiana from http://christianadivine.blogspot.com/raves about it so I decided to give it a try. Im very prone to acne so I hope it doesn't break me out even worse. Falsies were $0.99 each at a local accessorie shop, except the rainbow ones which I plan to use for halloween.

Introduction!
Hi everyone! Thanks for stopping by on my NEW blog! I've never done this before (referring to blogging) so I'm very NEW to this whole blog thing. I've been reading blogs such as nessasarymakeup and temptalia [rest of the blog roll is on links to the side] for a couple of months now but now I've decided to make one of my own. I use to have a you tube but it got deleted probably due to music infringement. Not sure, but anyway my user name on there was typicalgirl1726 sooo if you were familiar with me there...WELCOME again! If not, welcome anyways and keep checking daily for updates! On to the initial subject, I've made this blog to take more action into the makeup Internet community. I don't have many friends as obsessed with blogs, new coming MAC launches, makeup and such. Actually scratch that NO friends as addicted as me. Lol! So here I am blogging my interest in makeup and more. I use to be a stay at home mom but I will be returning to a full time job while my hubby goes to school for and works part time so please bear with me on the posts. I also figured its easier to stick to a blog than videos because editing seems to take to much of my time rather than typing. Feel free to contact me via e-mail at makeupcentral@gmail.com. Beauty and blog related e-mails ONLY! Thanks!
