I'm still recovering.
At least I know what I'm getting for Christmas! Three different Philosophy perfumes-yeah that's my brand for all things perfume and body lotion. We went to Sephora as I wanted to be color matched for the Color FX foundation. I got that for myself. The Kat Von D contour palette was an early present that I get to use now. Yeah it's awesome.
I'm not too sure about the new foundation yet. I prefer a matte finish and this is more dewy. Plus it was $40 for one ounce where the L'Oreal Infallible I like is $12. You do the math. I think I have decided I am going to mix the two and most likely won't buy another Color FX one again. But I've only worn it twice so far.
The first time I tried using a brush, the second with my beauty blender. I so prefer the beauty blender but man so many people use a brush for foundation. Maybe I'm not using enough product with the brush?
Oh and get this. I ordered two new brushes from Morphe Brushes. I love their palettes as I have two of them. The palettes are sent carefully wrapped in double bubble wrap and tons of peanuts. The brushes came in a cheap bubble envelope with no cushioning. One brush is fine the other came in two pieces. The brush part had separated from the handle.
That's nice.
I literally was on hold for thirty minutes trying to get a customer service rep on the phone. I started as caller number 30! Now that makes me think that way too many people have problems with this company. But maybe that's just me.
Anywho, after all that waiting I finally get a person and get this-I'm told I have to take pictures and email this special address and someone will get back to me via email. Now the brush is broken I have no problem with the pictures whatever. But normally a reputable company will just apologize and send out a new brush no questions asked.
Why not Morphe?
Are you really believing that I am trying to steal a goddamn $12 brush from you? Wow.
It has literally been two days since I sent the email with no reply. I resent it this morning. The email was quite pissy and I meant every word I said in it. I will never ever buy a brush from them again.
I really want to post the broken brush picture on my Instagram and try to shame them but I'm such a small account they wouldn't even notice. I still may though.
I'll let you know.
Here are two looks I wore this past week.
This first one I simply used a light brown shimmer shadow and added a pop of purple in my waterline. I love doing that. I plan of doing some of the far out colorful looks I see on Instagram that can't be worn to work!
This one isn't quite color accurate. Picture brick red and orange shimmer. This one I didn't quite get the lashes where they are supposed to be. I am getting to be a lot better at popping them on with no problem lately. I put the glue on and then I do my brows while the glue gets tacky about 2 minutes. It's a fat lie that you only need to wait for 30 seconds!
I hope you have enjoyed these eye looks!
Until next time people. Any thoughts out there?
