FOTD + OOTD: The scars of your love they leave me breathless, I can't help feeling we could of had it all

I realize I don't post FOTDs or OOTDs often on here and I don't really have a proper reason besides lazyness. I must admit I never thought my makeup looks or outfits could be of any interest as I mostly stick with basic and neutral looks - boring much? - but these types of posts seem to be very popular on the blogosphere.

Anyway, I had a job interview two weeks ago (I got the job, yey!) and for once, I was not in a rush and I had the time to take proper pictures!

Birthday FOTN, NOTW and presents

I celebrated my birthday with some friends Friday night. We went to my favorite restaurant, Jardin Thai (I ate sushis with cream cheese and smoked salmon and General Tso's chicken) , and we went clubbing at Le Vieux Shack.

Here's my FOTN:


Eyes
Annabelle Galaxy Eyeshadow Paletter - Shooting Star
Maybelline Unstoppable Eyeliner - Onyx
Maybelline The Falsies Volum' Express Mascara - Blackest Black
OLAY Regenerist Touch of Concealer Eye Regenerating Cream


Face

I added eyeliner before leaving the house LOL. Don't you think it makes all the difference?

And here's my NOTW, using Borghese Nail Lacquer in Venetian Red (thanks again, Kim!) and Sally Hansen Hard As Nails Xtreme Wear Nail Color in Rockstar Pink:

Sara and my boyfriend got me some goodies for my birthday =D

 Sara decorated the bag and the box with words I say often like "man", "sex", "shit"... yes, typicial me LOL.


 Maynards Juicy Squirts Sours: These are my favorite candies ever!


 How cute is this!

Fruits & Passion Foaming Bath Collection: The collection includes 2 fl. oz of Blackberry Musk, Pear Peony, Grapefruit Guava, Orange Cantaloup, Georgia peach and Field Berries. They all smell yummy, and I can't wait to try them!

Maybelline The Falsies Volum' Express in Black Drama: I'm currently using the original The Falsies and loving it (even though I don't really see the "dramatic false lash effect"), so I'm sure I'll love this one just as much!

Burt's Bees Facial Care Kit: 
This set is sure to naturally cleanse and will leave your face feeling refreshed and radiant.
  • Soap Bark & Chamomile Deep Cleansing Cream 170g
  • Peach & Willowbark Deep Pore Scrub 15g
  • Replenishing Lip Balm with Pomegranate Oil 4.25g

This set costs around $14 so it's a great bargain as the cleanser alone costs $12.99. I wanted to try a cream cleanser that wouldn't dry out my skin as it's already dry and it worsens in the winter so I'm very happy with this!

Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen in Black and Red: I wasn't sure if I wanted to buy some myself because I'm very lazy and I didn't think I could achieve something great, but I will definitely give it a try.

Jim Benton's It's Happy Bunny Socks: I needed socks, and I love Happy Bunny! Sara picked these out because it says things I can totally relate to those quotes:

 "I hate everything." (Typical me!)

 "I just don't listen." (I... just don't listen LOL)

 "It's all about me. Deal with it." (Yes, I'm selfish like that)


Jim Benton's It's Happy Bunny and Betty Boop Slipper Socks: Slipper socks are great to lounge around the house in, but unfortunately, these didn't fit, even though it says it will fit shoe size 4 to 10.

 "It's cute how you think I'm listening." (Typical thing I would say to my boyfriend LOL)



I'm not sure what happened here, but the design on the back of the socks seems to have been glued to iself and it makes the socks incomfortable to walk in.



Yoshi plush: I was in Future Shop with my boyfriend when I found some adorable Nintendo plushes and my boyfriend bought me Yoshi! Isn't it the cutest? ^^

I have the best friend and boyfriend hehe! =D

Essence Duo Eyeshadow in Dream Team

Essence Eclipse Glitter Eye Pencil in Hide Bella Hide and Estee Lauder Artist's Eye Pencil in Softsmudge Black: I'm especially loving the glitter eye pencil as I have nothing like this in my stash, and it glides beautifully on the lid and the glitters are not too chunky.

My prize from Kim's giveaway

  • Harajuku♥Lovers Fragrance Baby
  • Dior Diorshow Extase Mascara in Black Extase
  • Cake Nourishing Hand Lotion Baked Citrus
  • Borghese Nail Lacquer in B320 Palazzo Lilac F
  • Borghese Nail Lacquer inB165 Bambina Pink S
  • Borghese Nail Lacquer in B625 Bellini Peach F
  • Borghese Nail Lacquer in  B275 Verona Pink C
  • Borghese Nail Lacquer in B250 Venetian Red F
  • MAC Lustre Lipstick in Lazy Day

I was thrilled at the sight of a such big package!

 I'm not a fan of the fragrance itself, but the box is beautiful! I'm actually using it to display my perfumes on my vanity hehe =D


The whole package was smelling sooooo good, and I was like "Wait, this can't be fragranced with Daisy because I don't like the scent..." LOL. Then I figured out the Cake Hand Lotion spilled a little on the wrapping paper xD

 Harajuku♥Lovers Fragrance Baby: I searched the web for a proper description of this fragrance as it's not written on the box, and here is what I found on Amazon:
A powdery musk, fresh, clean and soft.
Top notes: White Rose, Bergamot, Freesia.
Mid Notes: Orange Flower, Tiare Flower, Jasmine Petals.
Base Notes: White Musk, Soft Woods, Vanilla, Violet.

To me, this perfume smells baby powder, but not plain old baby powder. It's a little fruity too... I'm really bad at describing fragrances LOL. And look at that packaging! It's to die for!


Dior Diorshow Extase Mascara in Black Extase: Wow, I would have never bought a mascara this expensive myself so I'm really glad to have the chance to try it for free!

 Cake Nourishing Hand Lotion Baked Citrus: OMG This smells heavenly! I will definitely be using it as a body lotion because I want my whole body to smell cupcake hehe =D

 Borghese Nail Lacquer in Venetian Red, Verona Pink, Bambina Pink, Bellini Peach and Palazzo Lilac:  I really like Venetian Red and Verona Pink, but I'm not sure about the others, they all look so sheer...

 2 coats, with flash (same order as stated above, from thumb to pinky)

 MAC Lustre Lipstick in Lazy Day: Wow, this is my first MAC product! I was very excited about it, and I'm not disappointed. This is the perfect pale pink, and I've been wearing it everyday since I received it =D
