new fav lipstick and other current ♥s

Forgettabout those other lipsticks I said I liked so much. I have a new love ~ Canmake Melty Nude l/s in Baby Pink (http://www.canmake.com/en/elip/item_lip014.html, and buy here). It's a Japanese brand drugstore lipstick. The packaging and imprint on the l/s are to die for. Glides on sooo nicely. And it looks killer with gloss underneath (yes, I apply under, not over l/s) Oh, yea, did I mention it's a DRUGSTORE l/s?? Come on American brands... step it up already!

Gifted to me by my dear, dear friend ♥ Susy

(no gloss here, and hastily applied in my excitement!)

Finally bought a darn clutch! Been wanting one but couldn't find one I liked in my price range. I've been in need of a non-black purse too, so this fit the bill! Tahari brand from Loehmann's, marked down from $158 to $55. I'm in love with foldover clutches!


Jeans! I've always wanted distressed jeans but hate trying them on. On a whim, I tried this brand Vigoss at Nordstrom Rack. Fits perfect. Like, everywhere. At my hip, thigh, knee, calf.. they hugggg my legs everywhere. The only other brand that has ever fit me so well is Frankie B (ladies out there who have no hips and no ass like me ~ you've got to try Frankie B!), but instead of being $229 these were $29.99. SCORE!

  6. How much dose 700 yen equate to in USD? lol

    Oh, Frankie B runs soo small! Of coruse it would fit you. I had to sell some Frankie B pants on ebay a few years back because I couldn't zip them up, and I think they were just a regular size 0 too.

  7. 100Y is ~1.25USD now.. so about $8.50.

    I wore my Frankie B's soo much in college .. and then along came leggings and I gave away 90% of my jeans to goodwill hahaha

  8. Does wearing gloss underneath help it glide on smoother/look better? I have such dry flakey lips that most lipsticks (especially nude) look rather unattractive. Congrats on the good deals!

    ReplyDelete
  9. Yup! It helps for me at least! Helps get rid of lines and all the other yucky stuff that makes lips unattractive. And gives a slight sheen but not too much :)

  10. OMG what a steal! ;D
    That's great that you found a perfect pair of pants. I get so excited when I find a pair that can fit well :)

  11. Oh, what a smart idea wearing lipgloss underneath lipstick! I hate how matte lipsticks can make your lips look older.
    Wow, I hold my hat off to you. Nice bargains on the yellow purse (perfect for fall) and those jeans!! Both of them look like they can be worn quite frequently and at those prices you really can't beat that. =0D

  23. ^Dana~ I learned those phrases from a janitor when I was in h.s., and never forgot them hahaha. Not useful, but funny :)

  24. OMG!! Lucky you!! YOu seriousely scored big time on the mark downs!! Jealous! Love the new clutch! Its gorgeous!!

    Response: I think you can get these lenses at any contact seller! Not sure where is the cheapest but they are called C.Pop LIGHT gray. the 'LIGHT' part is very important!!!
    My lipstick is MAC's Myth I think... Or most of the time I just powder my lips so that they look more nude! hehe ^^

  25. they are larger than your average pair!
    I just remembered that I did a review on this lens. here is the link if you want to read it.

    But the web site where I bought it from is REALLY EXPENSIVE and I felt abit ripped off so don't buy it from this company!

    I hope it is useful :)

  28. Woah! I found the Melty Nudes on yesstyle, but didn't know if they were any good. I'll deff. try them out : D
    And.. hey.. if you want, I'll donate u some of my own hip/ass supply. >_<" I got plenty..

  29. glad you LOVE that lipstick. in Europe, those foldover clutches are like the "in" thing. Chicks all over London carry those. Oh, and they don't seem to like wearing pants either. I've seen loads of them wearing leggings + boots or dress + stockings + boots or miniskirt + colorful stockings/leggings + boots.. And a nice peacoat. The men dress so beautifully over here too, *swoon* Well, not necessarily here in Amsterdam where I am at the moment..Btu at least in London. I am sure I will find this to be true in Paris tomorrow as well.
    Good steal on that bag! You bargain hunter you!
