Give AWAY!! Riri Woo for FREEEEEE - and tiny review

 Since I am lipstick obsessed I normally buy back ups for limited edition lipsticks. The reason being that I know that when I test it if I love it, by the time I get back around to the store it will be sold out. Then I'll cry and have to run around to 15 other stores or have my friends stalk their stores. So much unnecessary drama. The flip side of the coin is; sometimes I dislike the lipstick, but others might love it so I pop it in my kit or give it to a friend  Other times... I hate it, think it shouldn't live, and I return it. I try my best not to rerun LE items because most stores wont resell it. They have to toss it even if it's brand new and untouched.





So lucky you that stubbled upon this fairly new blog. I ordere 2 RIRI WOOS and I am not a fan

1- It is practically identical to Ruby Woo. The color isn't unique enough to be worth the struggle.
2-  The packaging isn't even special. The stick has her signature but it will fade as you use it. :(
3- OMG IT IS DRRRRYYY. When you put it on it pulls something horrible. My lips were preped and moisturized and it still was a pain.
4 - It's so dry that you have to dig into it to apply with a brush. I don't like putting reds straight on to my face because my skin is light and tends to stain. I use a lip brush for accuracy and it was just impossible to achieve more than a light stain.
5 - It dries you out so have that lip balm ready


I do love that once it is on the texture is velvety. Retro Matt is a great finish formula, but for some reason it was just bad on this particular product. The color is darling but again ruby woo is just very similar. It is very pigmented and has great color coverage though!

So here it goes! I'm using Rafflecopter since I've never given anything away so lets see how it goes. I also started reusing my Facebook so I added that to a way to earn points. Its pretty barren at the moment but keep a look out.

If this goes well I have tons of other LE BUs that need new loving homes so stay tuned,



PS: I went to the MAC Marilyn Seminar today so a post soon.

Running errands today, updated

So simple look for the rain and 57d weather.



surprised look so it's easier to see


E: sugarpill; after party, tako, bulletproof
Mac: gel liner
benefit: bad gal mascara 

Update later on what I got while I was out!

I got this really cute hat at the new lola by BCBG store on bay street!! They don't have a full website yet, and as far as I know there are only 5 or so stores, but if there is one near you, check it out, It's basically a classier f2, much better quality but still great prices. This hat was originally $19 but I got in on sale for $6 


Also some actual Lolita!


A lucky pack from BPN! So stay tunned for that post later on.

Finally home and It's awesome/Lucky Pack Post

That was the worst week ever, short supply of clothing, waiting on insurance and NO MAKE UP!!!

To celebrate the end of that disaster week, I did a sunset look today.


moved bangs so you can see better.

blending this was so much fun

eyes: Sugarpill:
buttercupcake
flame point
love+
poisonplum
over UD primerpotion

lips: lime crime; golden ticket, the picture washed them out but it's  like golden foil on your lips <3

Now the even more fun part!
Stood in line since 5AM to get some lucky-packs! Got everything we wanted, totally worth waking up early. This Set was 150 and included
jumper
boston bag
socks
cutsew
baret

I got the Angelic Pretty set in Pink! I originally wanted black but they sold it online and didnt have it in store. I am really glad they didn't have it though because it pushed me to get the pink. I have so much black that having some pink is very refreshing and I'm sure it will be put to plenty of use.



I love it all but the best part is the boston bag! It has so many pockets and dividers, perfect for outings. I think everyone's biggest issue with brand purses is the fact that you can fit a lipgloss and a very small cell phone. Then you better pray your dress has pockets otherwise you'll have to stuff your money and cards in your top.

front pocket

back giant pocket

inside dividers! D8



BONUS!! It also happened that they put out the re-stock of chess chocolate that day. I was extremely tempted to get the mint OP, but the gold just looked so much nicer on the dark chocolate. I love it to bits and I know I will use a skirt so much more that an incredibly formal OP. 
As a side note I was not a huge fan of this print or else I would have pre-ordered it. It was so much different in person, I totally fell in love once I actually had it in my hands.

Until Next time
