are you content?

so finally I slipped back in one of those moods again I was trying to avoid. best will be to hide myself in the bedroom, watching cheesy movies and do nothing but being lazy to get a break from civilization. no text messages, no phone calls, no e-mails.
that happens quite frequently and I never was one of those girls who needed to be surrounded by people all the time. I prefer being alone every once in a while.

so what I wanted to do, is to give a short summary. I developed this strange habit to buy a million face products without hardly using them. I should invest my money in books or something more useful.
I got quite a few mac thingies lately and I have to admit that their powders and blushes are lush. especially my new bronzer (solar riche, style warrior le) is perfect.

not orange, not too dark, just perfect!


also from this le, I got the lustre drops (in pink rebel)wich give that lovely shimmer, quite expensive for such a little amount tho.

as I re-developed another little fandom of mine (won't tell you, too embarrassed), I bought some eyeshadows to create a certain look. those who share the interest will know. what I got is mac eyeshadow in
- girlie
- wedge
- black liquid eyeliner (not for the look tho)

and a new eyeshadow base in light

to complete the list, I also got

which I haven't tried yet but am eager to do on monday.

so this is about it, I don't really have anything to say. have a nice weekend

rambling

oh boy, I am tired. I feel like I need a day to sleep in but there doesn't seem to be one in the near future.
well to keep this short: work was fine. I feel like I have to learn everything in an instant, which is good but exhausting. nevermind, I have this co-worker-girl who thinks she came straight from heaven but I shall not cry about it, because someday it may will be my advantage. I am not able to decide what to think of my other co-workers yet, I have the feeling that there is something cooking behind their blank faces but I don't know what it is yet. but at least I came prepared.

in other news I will see the killers this sunday, which I am very pleased about. I don't even mind going to work on monday because I know it's worth it. good times ahead

and I bought some new stuff which I will review probably tomorrow...have a good weekend

alright, grow up now...or don't

when I was young, I tried to be very grown-up. I tried to speak like my mother and act like my father, I tried to put on make-up which would me look older. I tried to read books adults would read, or at least I assumed that they probably would. I dreamt of my own place, a job, a car and a very neat and organised life.
now I am a little older and my dreams changed. I dream of living my life the way I do now (with a little more money tho). I fear that everything will change soon and I'm not that fond of change most of the time.

I wrote this about a week ago and you see how fast life could change sometimes. now I have a job and probably be moving in september. I shall remember: be careful what you wish for!

a bit of...freedom

so this is it. the very last hours I don't have to worry about anything. unfortunately I had a really bad night because my head wouldn't stop thinking so I could go to sleep. I always had sleeping issues, numerous kinds and quite frequently, this is one of them. sometimes I just can't stop thinking, about the most ridiculous things and when I finally could have managed to sleep my allergy hit me like a bus and I couldn't stop sneezing. very annoying but whatever. I will have another cup of coffee (its's 8am) and then get ready to do some shopping. I may meet an "old" "friend" today but you can never be too sure if she doesn't cancel.

but I'm very looking forward to go the mac counter and grab some new stuff. this is why I stop writing now and tell you later on what I got.

feel the summer

oh my! the days have passed again without me noticing.
first of all, I spent a very nice and chilled birthday in april. I refused to go partying or something like that this year, instead I had coffee with my dad (my mom and sister were on a holiday trip) and sushi with bf and bestie+bf. even tho I didn't plan to do a lot, somehow the action didn't stop. a friend came over for the weekend and we had a lovely but strenous party night. which was ok, but I think I'm getting too old for this!
well, I tried to work a bit, so I can get my savings back in order. it is actually working out quite well...until yesterday. until I saw this marvellous bike calling my name. luckily, I'm going to spend the next week in vienna, in order to work, so maybe the obsession has faded by the time I come back. I'm not really looking forward to this week because it's nothing but stress. it would be way nicer to spend time with my sister without working long hours. but well what can you do.
sad but true, there is nothing more to write about. everything seems to flow these days. I constantly have something to do but there is nothing really happening. I don't seem to make any progress and all my good intentions have gone over board.

whatever, I spent my birthday giftcards at marrionnaud's just a week ago. I knew that the mac was releasing a rose romance le on may 1st. I was waiting eagerly for this le because it's just so me. I'm not very keen on too bright colors on my eyes and lips, I'm more of a nude/rosey pink type of girl. It is the only thing which really works with my skin type, I would look ridiculous with sparkling bronzing powder and golden lipgloss on. so well, I decided to buy my first mac lipstick which is absolutely gorgous and just what I was looking for

as you can see, it is a very beautiful light pink which you can wear during the day, without looking stupid.
I also took their beauty powder in summer rose with me

it is a very nice alternative to regular finishing products because you get this healthy rosy glow on your face, even without using blush which is a big plus.
then I bought my second mac eyeshadow in of summer and finally one of the steal my heart lipglasses
.
the gloss works perfect as a topping for the lipstick but also could be used alone. it adds a sparkling touch of pink to your lips.

I guess that's about it, I try just to buy thing which I'm absolutely in love with and cut back on things I only like. even if the products are more expensive, I think quality still rules over quantity.

grey & pink

it felt like my blog needed a make-over, I'm not 100% happy with it but it will do until something better comes to my mind :)



I bought the new syoss hairproducts just yesterday and am eager to try them. I have heard a lot about them and now I wonder if you could really get studio quality for that price. the shampoo and conditioner comes in 500ml bottles and costs about 3,50€, which is an amazing prize! the smell is ok, it doesn't smell as delicious as my beloved herbal essences shampoo but it's ok. talking about hair, if you have slightly dry and stubborn hair, such as I do, I recommend the l'oreal professional playball silky sunrise. the stuff is amazing, it does wonders to my hair.

today I bought the presents for my uncle's birthday tomorrow. it's not the perfect gift as I hope I would find but it is ok and he will be happy anyways. well, he will be probably slightly drunk already as we get there. I am very looking forward to the party because I get to see my whole family again.

april already

first of all I like to say something: if you don't have anything nice or constructive to say, just keep your mouth shut. seriously, who are you people commenting strange and rude stuff on random blogs?! is this giving you some kind of thrill or anything, it's really a pain in the arse to read such comments. thanks.

in other news the days just fly by these days like they's only have 10 instead of 24 hours. but still I am very very happy about the weather, which warms my cold bones. my dad got back from rehab a week ago and is already working 10 -12 hours per day again. he will never get any wiser I guess. I am very looking forward to my uncle's birthday party this friday, he is the coolest uncle you could ever imagine and I am very happy to have him in my family. I learnt so much about music and art from him and he always wears the coolest clothes :D just got to love him

nevermind, some product reviews:

I went to the mac store some time ago in order to buy a new highlighter but what I got is the mac mono eyeshadow in brulé (satin). at first I was a bit disapointed but now I have to admit that I am in love with this color. it's a perfect nude shade and also works very well as basecolor.

dr. hauschka facetonic : good, smells odd tho (like the steam bath)
dr. hauschka rose oil : lush smell

something else I wanted to mention is the latest yves rocher make-up line: couleur nature. so far I own an eyeshadow duo, powder + highlighter and a lipstick. the colors are gorgeous and the price is ok if you ask me. especially their brushes are worth a look, I bought the big powder brush and am very happy with it. I was eyeing with mac powderbrush (49€) but got the yr (10€) instead. the quality is very good, so if you don't want to spend that much money on your brushes have a look.

random update

I just couldn't sleep last night, and when I slept I dreamt about jigsaw-man who killed himself and poured blood all over me. weird stuff. I didn't even watch a horror movie or something.

nevermind, today is sunday and I am planning to pick up my summer clothes. they're still all packed up in moving boxes at my father's house, so I guess it will take some time till I found everything I need. but the weather is getting warmer every day and I desperately need and want some shirts and shoes!!

there is not much other news to tell, I try to work a bit to get some money in order to pay off my debts (dentists I hate you!!! seriously I hate all of you!). everything moves really slowly tho, I can't seem to find a decent job and I'm getting frustrated. but what can you do, I try to do my best, apply for jobs I don't even want just for the sake of doing anything and getting some routine. it's not as easy as I thought it would be. but well what can you do, at least I'm sticking to my working out routine, now I just have to match my eating habits.
