Muchas Gracias Gracia!!! Posted: 10 Oct 2008 12:21 PM CDT ** Peace Gracie for calling you Gracia! I tried so hard to think of a Spanish translation hahaha ** I have kept in touch with the Glitz-y and Glamorously Gracie for months. We found ourselves chatting about anything that we could think of and just laugh our asses off!!! (trust me, you don't want to know what we talk about lol) I felt so comfortable talking to her as she's a true person...anyways, this is not about rubbing elbows but all I want to say, again and again that blogging is the most wonderful thing that happened to me because I've been chatting with people from all parts of the world and learn so much from them and nurtured friendship with a lot of my fellow bloggers and readers (you gals know who you are) I have NEVER expected anything but friendship! But people can be super generous! I got a surprise package this lazy Friday morning.... I can't guess the handwriting as it was typewritten, I tried guessing who's it from, but no return address... (I felt so stupid coz I should have seen the stamp on the upper right side --- but you can't blame someone who just woke up right? lol) The funny thing is, I am usually impatient when it comes to packages and I would usually open it up at once! But today is different, I played a mini game and took a shower, had breakfast (took my time) but all these time going crazy guessing who's it from! LOL I should just have opened it right? Can't blame a girl for being.....weird? hahaha (You don't have the right to agree! :P) I kinda remembered Gracie telling me an Advance Christmas gift she will be sending me, but I would never thought of it as this one as she sent it to me just last Thursday! Oh well, I did a good guess though coz when I opened up the envelope...here's what greeted me.... I can see the wonderful design!!! I think I may be right! I can't believe this! I am finally owning my OWN Urban Decay Palette. We don't have Urban Decay here in the Philippines so reading this from other bloggers and just looking and staring at their photos, and this time, I am touching it!!! I am in HEAVEN! Well Make-Up Heaven! Gracie is so sweet because she told me this palette reminded her of ME because of the lovely pop up butterflies! Girl!!! I can't help but blame you because I am starting to look like I've lost a couple of screws as I kept on flipping this palette....as many times as I blink! You have to admit, it does look pretty huh? BUT WAIT!!!! There's MORE! The Urban Decay Box Of Shadows includes 16 e/s 2 brushes and 1 UDPP! (great for traveling!) my new travel size UDPP The size of the brushes on my hand The Mini blending brush The Mini Eyeshadow Brush Time for swatches! All of these are swatched 2x NO Base (WITH FLASH) (WITHOUT FLASH) 1st Row (L-R) Perversion, Last Call, Grifter, Mayhem 2nd Row (L-R) Baked, Smog, Sidecar, Gridlock 3rd Row (L-R) Shakedown, Roach, Scandal, Midnight Cowboy 4th Row (L-R) Goddess, Shattered, Absinthe, Protest Gracie , dear Samantha, my ate! Thanks so much for the early Christmas present! (You know that you don't have to!) You know that I'd rather have you coming back home and us meeting each other! Again, thanks for being so sweet and generous and thought of me when you bought this! I'll always think of you when I use this! MUWAH :X An EOTD coming up with this palette! (Here's a teaser) Will explain more on the next post!!! Check back please! For you, Gracie Girl!

Check out Bobbi Brown’s new limited edition lip and eye palettes in this Holiday season. Bobbi Brown newest sets adds a special touch to your look. Great shades ranging from brown, pink, and neutral colors. All must haves for this fall and winter season. Check out this Bobbi Brown lip and eye palette above. This limited edition set comes with some great metallic eye shadows with a touch of shimmer, and a creamy lip color that’s long lasting. It also includes a mini eyeshadow brush and a mini lip brush. I’ve already fallen in love with this one. The shades are gorgeous!

What a gorgeous palette with useable shades for not only brides but 9-5 ladies and subtle but sharp sistas on the go. I can honestly say that I LOVE every single eyeshadow, cheek color and lip color in this palette. All of them look beautiful on my brown skin and are easy to use. Let me introduce you to the newest members of my family.

However, not everyone sees it as a gimmick. For some people, a talking palette is useful to help you figure out just where to place that particular eyeshadow colour without looking like you have been punched in the eye. Also, the texture of the Stila Smokey Eye quad is quite good. So, banking on this, Stila has come out with a whole slew of New Talking Palettes!

I got the Poppy Bouquet of these two shades. Very nice and it comes with a free eye shadow brush! And I got it two days before it was featured in the October edition of Nylon magazine! It is sure to sell-out now!
