I decided to get makeup done again at the MakeUp ForEver counter at Sears Toronto Eaton Centresince I was pretty pissed off from my last makeup experience and I had plans on getting a sheer/medium foundation for the summer too. Since I was going to spend $50+ anyways....so why not take advantage and get makeup done? Yes, I love getting pampered and I also had plans on going out too.

So this Sears - MUFE counter Eatons location is actually closing permanently in June/July and this was the ONLY place in Toronto that carried eyeshadow pan refills. The other place in Canada is in Montreal at the MUFE Pro Boutique store. I guess I'll have to order pans from there oneday. (I'm not going to the New York MUFE location anytime soon either...lol) You can still buy MUFE eyeshadow palettes from some MUFE counters. I bought the 10 eyeshadow- palette today from The Bay counter at Eatons for $22. (The Bay is like Macys) I think that's the only counter that has them right now.

Anyways...back to my FOTD make-up...I wanted a bright gold-hot pinkish look with some purple and my MA came up with this. I think he did a great job! I love it and it's very colourful and it was new to me since I'm not really used to wearing such bold colours. The pics do not show up as vibrant and bold but it was VERY BOLD in person...trust me! lol



I can't remember everything the MA used for the face but for the eyes this is what I know...

#75 (Hot Pink)
#10 (Yellow Gold)
#92 (Purple)
MUFE Gel Eyeliner in Black
A Champagne shimmery powder for the inner corners and highlight

So I came back home and applied...
-Mac #7 Lashes
-Mac Hipness Blush
-Mac Other Worldly Blush
-Mac Flashmode Lustreglass

The eyeshadow colours were VERY LIMITED...most of the good ones were SOLD OUT and they were not getting anymore new shipments either. I know there are a couple of the famous #92 eyeshadow pans left. These are $13.50 Cdn ....so hurry before it's all gone! If you go to The Bay...each full container eyeshadow is $18.50 Cdn.

I got #49, #160 and #34 Face and Body Foundation. This feel very cool against my skin and I actually love the smell of this. It goes on sheer and you can build it up as well. It's waterproof too. =) I think I got it for $41.50Cdn. They didn't have any palettes left and were all sold out. Then I went to The Bay @ Eatons MUFE counter.

Since, they never had this at Sears...I really wanted it bad so I got this #75 Eyeshadow container one and I know you can even use this as a blush too. It's SUPER pigmented as well so you just need a very tiny bit and then blend it in with your blush brush. This was $18.50Cdn. I think Sephora sells them for $1-2 more.

I got this 10 eyeshadow palette for $22Cdn. It's not the best palette either and it's not as great as the Mac palettes. It has this foam type texture inside and it's not the magnetic types either. The pans just fit in. There's a 6 palette too for $14-15Cdn. There are two other palettes that have mirrors in them and are more bulky in texture but they are pricey as well. The trio eyeshadow palette is $18 and the quad is $17. That's just how the prices are. =S

As I mentioned earlier...I was suppose to get make-up done at the Rose Romance Mac event....well...it turned out to be SHIT! lol HORRIBLE! I went with my friend who booked an appointment as well. She ended up with the good MA and her MA took her time and did a great job. While mines only spent like 15minutes to do my makeup. I was so disqusted and angry that I never bothered to take any pics! She applied the tiniest amount of foundation and the eyeshadow was creasing by the time I left the Mac counter. I could have done a better job than what she did. I should have asked for the same MA who did my makeup last. She did a great job! Grrr.... Well...there's always next time!

I know it's been ages since I posted or been on Youtube. I've been busy with school and other things. Hopefully...I can manage to post some FOTDs and tutorials soon. I have a bunch of messages on youtube which I will answer eventually. So...No, I am not ignoring you... lol

Oh yeh...I'm going to the Mac Rose Romance event this weekend to get free makeup done. (I booked this about a month ago) YAY! =D Even though, I'm not really feeling for this collection. The blushes look pretty but are too sheer for my skintone. The eyeshadows aren't vibrant and just seem so dull looking and I think the only one that stands out is Silverthorn eyeshadow. It's a silver bluish colour. The lipsticks/lipglosses... I do already have similar shades but I might grab Magnetique lipglass. Of course, I won't get the Rose Fix+ spray...it's just Rose Water! lol So not worth getting! I don't buy full jar pigments unless I really, really, really LIKE IT! I'll just get samples of the new ones.

Anyways...hope you all have a great weekend. =)

So I don't really talk about my TV show addiction on my blog so much but I couldn't resist this one. I was so shocked to see Kal Penn getting killed off "House" (one of my favourite TV shows). You may know him better from his awesome movies like The Namesake, Harold and Kumar Goes to White Castle and Harold and Kumar 2 Escape from Guantanamo Bay. He actually commited suicide in the recent "House" episode but they didn't really show his face just a vague scene of a dead male body. That's how he "left" the show. :( *Tear* I will miss him. I was so crushed and didn't want him to leave. He is a very talented actor! I can never get enough of him. Did I mention that he's quite adorable as well? I know you gurlies find him cute! ;)

It's great to see South Asians acting in American TV Shows and the diversity is truly amazing. He's one of my favourite and I loved him in the Harold and Kumar movie series. Omg! He was amazingly hilarious with his co-star John Cho. I loved those movies! His adventures reminded me of the time when I was in first year and me and my friend, Julie (who is Asian) walked through a strong winter storm during the night just to eat at McDonalds. I know McDonalds is nothing but we were really craving for it and it was like heaven when we actually entered the store. lol Even today we walk through downtown Toronto streets and walk from here to there and all across just to go to our favourite Thai restaurant "Green Onions". We even walk all the way across to the Mac Pro Store too. So you see...Make-up is our WEED! lol Somedays, we go through really crazy adventures and it reminds me of us being the female version of Harold and Kumar. Yes, we would make sweet love to a giant dazzleglass. JUST KIDDING! But you know what I mean... HAHA! Oh yeh...you guys should check out the movie "American Desi" he was awesome in it even though he was just a side actor. I loved him there! =D

Anyways....back to Kal Penn...Even though I will miss him tremendously from this show and his movies, I'm really glad he is following his dreams of getting into politics and he has made such great progress too. It's an honour to work as the Associate Director of the White House Office of Public Liason in the Barak Obama administration.*Tear* So proud of him! I hope he doesn't leave acting forever, although he said he's taking a break from acting for now.

Hair Update: I am really missing my old hair. The colour I chose to colour was much lighter than what I have right now. =( I don't know what happened....it's almost black now! Honestly, I look at my past hair pics and I miss it TREMENDOUSLY and I think I might try to lighten it soon. Probably tell the salon lady to put in some toned down highlights. I know it's damaging but I MISS it BADLY! =( *tear* I will do a hair consultation soon.
