My recent addiction (besides Starbucks Shaken Black Tea Lemonade Sweetened) is watching youtube videos of beauty reviews. I'm addicted. It started innocently enough. I have been looking into getting hair extensions for awhile now, looking through reviews I found lollipop26's reviews on Jessica Simpson's Hairdo extensions. And I haven't looked back since then. I have developed some favorites since then besides lollipop26 aka Laura like deanne5253 and kerry1487. Some may think this is not normal but I say whatever makes you happy to a certain extent.
It's funny that I should find this so fascinating. Growing up I was never really that into makeup or beauty stuff, even in high school. It may be because I was always doing horse shows and painting on a load of makeup that would make any person look like a clown. It was sort of like if you have ever done dance or anything like that, it's so it can be seen from a distance. Make up looses it's charm when you are piling it on over sweat and dirt. My mom had the hardest time buying makeup for little 10 year old me, she has never been into make up she rarely wears any. But when I was 16 I went to Mac and had them do my make up and get all kinds of fun stuff (to pile on).
Also strange is that among my friends I'm the one they ask to do their make up. But I guess after years of putting it on and learning from girls far more talented then myself I got good at it. I really don't collect that much make up but I have some staples I like and when I walk into Sephora I'm drawn to everything. On my most recent trip to Sephora I dropped an access of 90 dollars on a mixture of Lorac and Kat Von D. I am absolutely loving Kat Von D's new line. Maybe I will do a youtube video review on it if I'm feeling particularly brave. What I would love to do a youtube review on is something I revisited at Sephora that I originally bought at a sex shop is the Crazylibellule perfume sticks. Sephora doesn't happen to carry the collection and scent that I originally bought which was disappointing and I looked at the website which is French based, it doesn't ship to the US but it ships everywhere else. I don't understand that but I do truly love that stuff. I would love to hear if anyone has any thoughts on either the Crazylibellule or Kat Von D's makeup line drop a line and let me know.
For those of you going, who is this girl. I am Mary. I live in Washington DC where I go to college, my undergrad. I'm an Archaeology major. I am soon to be a second semester senior graduating in May, which is terrifying. I am originally from Northern California. I love all things horsey. I am going to study Egyptian Archaeology in graduate school most likely in England, which will be an adventure. It will be fun being close to my family in Ireland and England. I don't know what else you would like to know about me. Let me know and I will answer any questions.
Hopefully I will be checking back in very soon. Until then, happy blogging. And for you college students, happy finals week - it is almost over yay!
