Haul: So far, just the M.A.C. Toledo polish in Venus Red (since it’s being discontinued). Plan to haul a few items form the Yaz Bukey release whenever it’s available today…also really loving the early access to Stila’s Summer 2015 Collection – considering the Watercolor Blush in pink violet, the Stay All Day in Como (bright violet), and if I don’t get the Hourglass bronzer via Sephora early access, I’m considering the Aqua Glow.
Weekend Plans: Meeting my Mom for breakfast tomorrow. Then who knows!
Wishing everyone an awesome weekend!

YAY! Lots of fun ColourPop goodies I see š Mostly mattes!
I’m on a matte shadow kick lately… and my collection had previously been very lacking. And after getting the Rebound foursome and LOVING the formula, I went a little trigger happy on my shopping cart. Can’t beat the price though.
Today, I’m wearing Bill in the crease with Mittens on the lid, Doe-a-deer along the lash line and XO in the inner corner and brow bone highlight.
What a pretty look š
Haul: Guerlain kohl liner in Amber Silver. Just gorgeous.
Weekend Plans: Oh man…test on Monday, Biochem case study due Tuesday, two papers due Wednesday, a case presentation Thursday, a city justice meeting tomorrow, and my friends just called because the wife had to deliver via emergency C-section, so I stop in tomorrow to check on them. No rest for the weary!
Do you like to dance: haha, I would never suggest the natural world to my terrible dance moves.
Good luck on your upcoming test and papers, Veronica! You can do itttt!
Haul: MAC Industrial eye liner, Cyber World lip liner, and Pearl Blossom beauty powder. Also some foundation applicator wedges and makeup remover wipes for my future sister-in-law (I’m doing her makeup for the wedding, she doesn’t usually wear makeup so I’m supplying everything except her foundation).

It’s so nice of you to do her makeup! š
Haul: Bobbi Brown Gel Liner in Cobalt Ink (really makes my warm brown eyes pop!), Clinique Lash Power Mascara (this one’s going back if I can find my receipt. It didn’t do much to my lashes, was a pain to remove, and flaked off like crazy and hurt my eyes).
Weekend Plans: Busy weekend! Date night tonight with the boyf, mani pedi tomorrow with my mom, my friend’s wedding on Sunday. She’s Armenian, so the food is going to be amazing! I’m so excited for it. Now to plan my MU!
Do you like to dance: I really wish I did. I just feel so awkward whenever I’m on a dance floor. I have absolutely no rhythm. But, for some reason, I can dance better when I’m sitting down lol.
I forgot, I’m also going to the Sephora Beauty Before Brunch Event on Sunday morning before the wedding. My friend is coming with me, so it’ll be fun!
Cobalt Ink sounds so pretty! I’ll have to check that out š

A Becca phase is a good phase š
Roller derby!
FUN!
Haul: Some cheap no-name lashes. Pretty sure they are exactly like Ardell Demi Wispies, though!
Weekend plans: I really should finish some school work I have but I doubt I’ll do it haha.
Do you like to dance?: Yes, I’ve been taking dance classes since I was 5! I dance modern dance right now, and I teach 4-5 year olds! I don’t want to make a career out of it, but it’s something I’m really passionate about.
From what I can tell from all my faves who use lashes on the daily, cheap lashes do just fine š
HAUL: I may finally get to the mall HOORAY! We’ll see. Knowing me, I’ll just buy more wine!
Weekend: I may go to a party on Sunday. I only know one person and it’s a birthday party for someone I don’t know. My husband is working, so that is why I may go to the mall. He’s finally not around to stop me or spend all of our discretionary funds on his HUGE video game habit.
Dancing: Yes, love it. When I was younger before I injured my legs, I used to go out 2-3 nights a week. I was also in a belly dance troupe. I’m still ok at dancing it just really hurts to accomplish. It’s one of the things I miss the most in life as it was the only way I could express myself and work out all my stress.
Woohoo!! Have a fun trip to the mall š
Haul from the last couple of weeks: UD Naked Skin Ultra Definition Powder Foundation, a Wet and Wild palette (Vegan Culture from the Silverlake LE, it’s more hit than miss) and a medium sized Colourpop order.

Thanks for that š
Haul: Three of the LA Girl Pro concealers in Fawn, Medium Beige and Warm Honey.
Weekend plans: Finish my taxes, take some photos to edit later for blog posts and maybe bake a lemon-blueberry cake.
Do you like to dance?: No, because it’s embarrassing. Lol. I do want to learn how to tap dance.
Good luck getting those taxes done ;D
I broke my no buy but it was totally worth it, we have a company store near my work. I bought warm soul mineralize blush, from Clinique bronzer in sunswept,fashion punch lipglass, uber nude lipstick and slopes lip pencil from Bobbi brown. I think that should last me a while.
For the weekend window shop and start spring cleaning. I like to dance. I listen to music while I clean so I dance around a little when I’m cleaning.
