Never Too Much

Lately I’ve been buying a bunch of lipsticks that are like a shade or so different. Lol. Ridiculous. :P I know there’s others that do that. Really…how many shades of pinky-nudes do we need? In my case..how many pinky-red shades do I need? 
I showed some of these in a previous post, but I wanted to compare them to two more that I got the other day. 


Left to right: (this is with many coats)
Dior Addict  Lipcolor Lipstick in Hollywood Rose pigment-rich, $26, @Sephora
MAC Lipstick in Viva Glam Cyndi lustre shade, $14.50, @Dillards
MAC Lipstick in Lustering lustre shade, $14.50, @Dillards
Dior Addict High Shine Lipstick in Backstage Pink translucent, $26, @Sephora
Dior Addict High Shine Lipstick in Flamenco translucent, $26, @Sephora


Same order. These are the lipsticks with one coat. I am totally in LOVE with Viva Glam Cyndi. The Viva Glam Gaga would look too pasty against my skin tone. The MAC lustering is such a beautiful color on as well. 

Here’s what they look like on me…without any other makeup:

Backstage Pink


Lustering…almost looks exactly like Backstage pink, but this one is milkier and lilac-ier. I LOVE this shade. Bf helped me pick it out. ^^


Flamenco


Viva Glam Cyndi, new favorite ^^

 
Hollywood Rose

I don’t care. With a keen any for color like me, all these are majorly different. :P

 
Couple months ago, I bought the Maybelline Studio Eyeshadow pallete on the left. I just now took a look at my makeup collection and forgot that I bought the pallete on the right from Sephora. Lol. Maybelline, $10.79. Sephora, $24.

I started using Amazing Cosmetics Concealer again. Forgot how much I loved this product! I especially love that it’s waterproof because my eyes water allll the time, which is very annoying. Even if the wind hits it, my eyes water. The veins in my eyes are always showing too…for years. Wonder if I have some kind of chronic dry eye or something? Ah well. That’s why I carry eyedrops with me all the time, therefore, I need a waterproof concealer. :)

Oldie. Love it though. I love watching all of these unwearable makeup videos (maybe wearable to some of you) from Pixiwoo. ^^ I like trying to do trying crazy/avante garde looks like these in the comfort of my own home. Lol…

INTERPOL - PIONEERS TO FALLS

Show me the dirt pile
And I will pray that the soul can take
Three stowaways
Vanish with no guile
And I will not pay
But the soul can wait
The soul can wait

Well it is still pretty wet
With all these leaks
We’ll be fine
We’ll be fine

But if it’s still pretty wet
With all these leaks
We’ll be fine, oh…
And supervise

Show me the dirt pile
And I will pray that the soul can take
Three stowaways
And you vanish with no guile
And I will not pay
But the soul can wait
I felt you so much today

And oh you try..
You tried.. straight into my heart
You fly.. straight into my heart
Girl, I know you try…
You fly.. straight into my heart
You fly.. straight into my heart
But here comes the fall (fault)

So much for make believe, I’m not sold
So much of pain’s deceit, I’m not prepared to know
Your heart makes me feel
Your heart makes me bold
For always and ever
I’ll never let go
Always concealed
Safe and inside — alive

Show me the dirt pile
And I will pray that the soul can take
Three stowaways
In a passion it broke
I pull the black from the grey
But the soul can wait
I felt you so much today

Love everything about this song, especially the guitar and piano solo in the beginning… totally sets the mood of a sad yet beautiful song.
