Mellan was Superdog for Halloween!
Aww MELLAN! It’s amazing how happy he looks 😉
Haul: Laura Mercier Khaki Caviar Stick and Chantecaille Bio Lift Concealer. Was seriously tempted by many Chantecaille eyeshadows as well, but man those are some pricey singles!

Enjoy your trip 🙂
Haul: Formula X polishes in Bionic, Bombshell, Law of Attraction and Maniacal, Urban Decay Anarchy palette, Butter London polish in Petrol, Zoya polish in Tomoko.
Plans: Putting up Christmas trees and other indoor decorations. It’s a tradition for my hubby and I to put the tree up the first few days of November. For the first eight years of our relationship, my hubby would fly back home for Christmas, which is also his birthday. We’d put the tree up early so we could celebrate longer. Just two years ago was our first holiday/birthday together.
Toy: Little People. We had the original house that opened up. We kept it for nearly thirty years then lost track of what happened to it.
Awww! I LOVE that you put up your Christmas decor in early November 🙂
Mellan’s the best Superdog ever! He looks dashing in his costume. 🙂
Haul: Becca Blotting Powder Perfector in Translucent; Guerlain Eye Pencils in Amber Silver and Deep Purple, Rouge Gs in Madame Batifole and Madame Flirte; Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette; Rouge Bunny Rouge Long-lasting Eyeshadows in Abyssinian Catbird, Bohemian Waxwing, Olive Violetear and Unforgettable Oriole
Weekend plans: We’re currently out of town and I’m enjoying every bit of it, then back to my normal routine on Monday. Oh, dear!
Favorite childhood toy?: Polly pocket and my stuffed bunny. 😀
Love your haul, Precious!
Thank you. I’m so happy I finally got the Rouge Gs, been waiting for them for months. Enjoy your date with your mom this weekend! 🙂
Haul: MAC NC15 concealer, Clarins Bright Plus Exfoliating Lotion/Peel/Tonor, and RiRi Hearts Her Cocoa Quad (it was a whim purchase because, by some miracle, the MAC by me still had it), LORAC Pro palette, LUSH Randy, LUSH Twilight, It’s a 10 lite.
Weekend Plans: I am going to see Ender’s Game Saturday and then up to my grandparent’s on Sunday to take pictures of our Fall Prevention Brochure.
Favorite Childhood Toy: Princess Leia doll from the throne room scene at the end of IV. It was probably supposed to be a collectible, but ended up as a suped up Barbie for me.
Have fun at the movies, Julia! 🙂

Weekend Plans: It’s Divali here in Trinidad and although I’m not Hindu, most of my paternal relatives are Hindu so I will be spending time with them, helping them lay out their deyas, looking at fireworks, driving around the neighbourhood to see how creative people have gotten with their displays…always fun to live in a cosmopolitan society! 😀 Will also be going to church and to the cemetery in commemoration of All Saints and All Souls Day!
Favourite Childhood toy: A cabbage patch doll that I named “Jimmy”. Although “Jimmy” was mostly naked * smh * and eventually lost its arms 🙁 we were inseparable. Rolling on its hard plastic head while sleeping was painful though but I loved it anyway! Truly unconditional love!

I’m so mad that I haven’t found the LE Color Tattoos locally! 🙁 Enjoy yours!
i picked up all of the matte loreal new long shaped lipsticks the le mattte, i really like them, they are high end quality stuff, i picked up the neutral one of the le laque,
last week i bought the cheaper one of the bite double sided lipstick thing that is out.
before that i bought a bunch of mark down neutral lip liners from drugstore, loreal and maybelline, one cover girl lip balm thing and a cream finish revlon lipstick.
I have a few of the Le Mattes but haven’t had a chance to photograph them yet! Good to hear they are good!

and telling papa , mamma’s friend have golden color dog and blushing hhahah 😀
saying “Acha hai” ( he is good )
He is a gentle giant 🙂
Haul: Too Faced Boudoir eye shadow palette, Clarins Rouge Eclat lipstick in the absolutely gorgeous colour Red Wine, Be Long Mascara, Jeunesse de cou neck cream and Super Restorative Body Lotion (it’s a full size but it was a freebie because I’d purchased 3 items; I also got decent sizes of the products I use in their “Time to Choose” GWP). I also got the new Sheer and Perfect foundation from Shideido and they had a great purchase with purchase that I couldn’t resist….a full size primer, their foundation brush (which I love) and a package of Shiseido’s facial cottons; she also gave me a loose setting powder. I kinda overdid it a wee bitty.
Weekend plans: My yoga challenge comes to an end on Saturday with a celebration party but I’m planning to fit in 2 more classes before then (one is tonight; another is tomorrow, with hubby). Other than that, I think I just want to relax, clear up some of the leaves and put outside stuff away for winter.
Duh again I forgot to answer the last question. My favourite toy when I was a kid was probably Barbie or these 2 lovely toy Persian cats – mother and baby – that came with a cute little wicker basket.
Congrats on finishing your yoga challenge, Mariella! 🙂
Your SuperDog is the cutest!!! Happy birthday to your mom!
Thank you!

Haul: Just some costume makeup (Cinema Secrets creme makeup) for Halloween – I went in grayscale, got some good photos!
Weekend plans: Not much scheduled!
My parents made me a dollhouse, it was gorgeous and I played with it for years & years! I think they’re saving it somewhere for their (currently nonexistent) grandchildren!
I hope to see photos of your grayscale costume, Emi!

Weekend Plans: Working, staying over at my mom’s house so the dog doesn’t get lonely while she’s visiting my sister in Florida.
Favorite childhood toy: Hmm, that’s a tough one…I got bored with toys easily when I was a kid. Games tended to hold my attention longer, like the old Zelda games for the SNES. 🙂
Before I forget, pictures of my homemade “Z-palette” –

In case anyone is wondering, I used a clipboard file binder with a magnetic sheet attached as the base. (The clip on the outside may be silly, but it’s actually helpful when I want to make sure it doesn’t slide around in bags or tote along a bag full of brushes with it!) It was pretty easy to alter it from there. I think I may add a snap enclosure to make it a little more travel friendly, but the cardboard itself is certainly sturdy enough to handle some punishment. For my roommate’s collection, I used a couple of empty CD cases to make smaller, “on-the-go” palettes for her. 🙂 The only thing I wish I’d done different with it is removed the interior pocket beneath the metal sheet. I wound up having to level it out with cardboard so the magnet enclosures on each side were better aligned.
Thank you for sharing, Veronica!! I was SO excited to see them!
Great job! 🙂

Mellan looks adorable! My husband and I were talking about dressing up one of our cats as Dracula, since he goes around with his little fangs out!
* Haul: Waiting with bated breath for the Sephora VIB 20% off sale, but Nordstrom Rack had a whole display of Tarina Tarantino makeup, so I had to try a few things – a few eyeshadows, Dollskin Blush in Feather, translucent powder, and Pearl Primer.
* Weekend plans: My husband is taking me out for a fancy brunch to celebrate the anniversary of our first date.
* Favorite childhood toy: My Little Pony, too! But I read most of the time. (Still do.)
I read a LOT as a kid, too! Not as much now, though.
He’s adorable! I look forward to his picture every Friday 🙂
