This week’s Mellan photo/video…
Someone was keeping me company while photographing yesterday 🙂
Haul: only bought one thing in the past two weeks, Dior Blue Label polish, but it hasn’t arrived yet.
Weekend plans: maybe going hiking on Sunday, but the weather has been so hot lately, it’s no very pleasant to be out and about.
What’s your favorite iced/cold drink? I prefer hot beverages, nothing iced or too cold for me.
Blue Label sounds pretty!
It arrived today and I put it on my toes and it’s the perfect navy blue polish. I have several navy blue polishes, but this definitely became my favorite immediately. It was almost perfectly opaque in one coat. I love the formula!
Haul: Annabelle summer blush palette, Art Deco Mineral Eyeshadow Base (in a pot), Maybeline Waves of White! I’m on the hunt for the rest of the shades now, I’ve only seen Icy Mint and Precious Pearl, but I’m looking for Shady Shores and Seashore Frosts x2. 😉 )
Weekend plans: Post Anime North clean up. lol
What’s your favorite iced/cold drink?: Second Cup Frrrozen Hot Chocolate and Booster Juice Funky Monkey. Maybe get them once a mount on these. lol
Frozen hot chocolate? That sounds awesome!
It is! The use their hot chocolate mix which is 100% better then what Starbucks calls hot chocolate, add ice and milk and blend.
I should also say I donlt do 1-2 of those a year at most as their soooo rich.
oh god anime convention clean-up. 9___9 i’m so glad i didn’t go to anime boston this year. sO MUCH WORK.
Yeah we cleaned up the hotel room before leaving last weekend as well. It’s my apartment then needs a haul out of extra materials. 😉
The light lime green body paint turned me a little yellow looking as well that is slowing fading. lol
haul: rimmel kate moss lipstick in #06 (the one that supposed to be a dupe for mac impassioned) (it’s amazing wow oh wowie), two wet ‘n’ wild mini eyeshadow pencils (champagne and iridescent purple) that make eyeshadow so much more fun to wear, and a clear w’n’w lip gloss!
weekend plans: probably gonna hit the beach! i went yesterday and it was awesome.
favorite iced drink: good ol’ dunkin donuts iced coffee!
I wish we had DD here! Okay… maybe not, LOL. It’s better that we don’t 😉
LOL! Be glad you don’t! Their Boston Cremes are a weakness for me. 🙂
oh noooooOOOOO you live in a DD-less place? so awful! D:
I moved to the Bay Area from Boston and I miss dd so much! Their coffee is great for the price.
Haul: MAC Blot Powder Pressed in Medium Dark, MAC Select Plums lip palette, Ruby Woo lipstick.
Weekend plans: Cleaning and organizing my computer desk area. I also want to visit a friend tomorrow and bring her a homemade cheesecake.

I don’t think I’ve ever had peach juice! I have to try!
Mellan looks so focused, hehe 🙂 Or just baffled by what on earth you are doing 😉

Hi Christine, I ended up buying the iphone 5. I guess its not that new now!

Mellan is the cutest working companion – so well behaved and just watching you work!
I’m lucky to have him!
Haul: OPI German-icure by OPI and OPI Skyfall. Revlon Nearly Naked foundation. My skin has been very nice lately so I wanted a sheer foundation that was not moisturizing. The Nearly Naked reminds me a lot of UD’s Naked foundation in that it’s very sheer and lightweight.

Favorite iced/cold drink: Mango or avocado bubble tea.
Avocado bubble tea – now I need to try this!
Haul: 2 of the new eye liner pencils from Sephora (Surfer Babe and Tango Night); a “showstopper” from IT Cosmetics (but it hasn’t arrived yet; I saw a box in the letter box when I got home today but it’s for my daughter!) and on sale, I got the Violet Night eyeshadow quad from GOSH cosmetics. I also got a tube of Formula 405 cream and I am so thrilled – I didn’t know it was still available (last time I used it was more than 20 years ago)
Weekend plans – some shopping (while the guys golf) and then dinner out with 3 other couples with whom we’ve been good friends since university days; on Sunday, a sweet young fella who works at our yoga studio is teaching a class at Lululemon and we want to attend it to support him
Favourite cold drink: Probably Starbucks Strawberries and Cream frappucino or Second Cup Frrrozen Hot Chocolate
Oh, I also bought Stila Puppy eye shadow earlier this week. I really like it and I’ve been using it so much I almost forgot that it’s “new”.
I’ve heard a lot of good things about Sephora’s new pencils!
Haul: Hit up MAC and didn’t have alot of time (husband around..you know how it goes).
I’m not sure what it’s called, but it’s the really thin brow liner in Strut, which is now my 2nd time buying, which is a miracle for me.
Bought the pigment in neo-orange. Yes,,I love my corals and oranges. lol.

Favorite iced drink: Iced tea. I’m pretty sure most American Southerners have Lipton black tea running in their veins rather than blood.
Do you do sweetened iced tea or just regular?

This weeks haul – Mascara Madness at Nordies! They finally have the Giorgio Armani ETK Excess available as part of the promotion, so I got 3 of those! Also hauled 2 of the new Revlon Super Lustrous l/g’s from Rite Aid – they are BOGO 50% off, so I bought Kiss Me Coral and a peach one that I can’t remember the name of, but it looks like a light true peach with some shimmer.

I need a cut so I stop putting my hair in a bun every day. But it was nice to see how fast my hair had grown over the last year!
What’s your favorite iced/cold drink?: The Strawberry from Blenders in the Grass in Santa Barbara. I used to go there 2-3 times a week in summer. It’s addicting! I’ve been out of California for years now and I still crave it in the summers. I need to find a new summer drink.
