Milani Liquid Eye Pencil Liner - A Garlic Birthday

Talking about this bad boy down here today.

Milani claims that this eyeliner is a "liquid-like eyeliner pencil". It is super creamy and pigmented but if you've got oily skin it might smudge after a few hours. I usually take it with me when I use it so I can retouch the edged throughout the day. I love applying makeup so it isn't a cumbersome task for me. The color is navy blue (Blue 08) but it's super unique because it contain pink and purple shimmers that are barely noticeable. These shimmers really contribute to the colors intensity and really compliments brown eyes beautifully.  









 





Super recommend this eyeliner. Pigmentation is amazing, staying power is decent, and it's super fun to add some color.

I have a lovely friend named James (for safety purposes haha) and it was his birthday recently. One of the ways I express my love towards people I care about is through meaningful presents. 
James loves to consume raw garlic. Ew, right? He does make an excellent case for the benefits one can reap with the consumption of raw garlic.
So I got him a few meaningful presents and made him this card. I drew a garlic plant I found on google and burnt the edges and wrote "garlic" in different languages. I think he liked it.

 Have a great day/night/whatever :) !

MAC's Creme in Your Coffee Swatch

Hello everyone! I've taken an unexpected hiatus from blogging due to the demands made from my wonderful statistics class... *cue vomit* 
Although I appreciate the education, am learning tons and getting the course out of the way, I don't expect I will ever take to math. 

Anyways, this week I was in San Francisco with my father and stepmother and we had a great time! I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to visit such a lovely city. 
While there I got MAC's rosy brown MLBB lipstick "Creme in Your Coffee". I had been wanting this color for ages but I couldn't justify it's simplicity. Especially because I own MAC's "Syrup" and I felt it was too similar (judging off online swatches). However, Syrup is truly more of a plummy mauve on me. 




This lipstick is a cremesheen finish. It's not overly drying but I do like to use it with a lip balm under it to give a more glossy finish. 
Overall, I really enjoy this lipstick and I'm looking forward to wearing it more often in the fall when my skin gets paler.
