Happy Haulidays!!!:D

My Christmas goodies consist mostly of Chanel, its becoming quite an obsession. I got the Holiday quad which i find pretty difficult to work with and the colors not very complimenting for my yellow undertone and dark hair. The majority of the colors have a pinkiness to them and its pretty annoying. Next i got the Tweed Fuchsia, which is absolutely a must-have, its breath taking. I thought it would be too bright on me, but its not. And its buildable. It also doubles as a highlighter and photographs beautifully. The next two items are from the Chanel summer collection and are limited edition. I hunted around and found them at some stores lol! Bondi Lipstick, and Nouvelle Vague Nail Polish yay!!! Im soo glad i didn't have to order them off ebay!! Next i wanted a matte bronzer and i've finally fell in love with Hoola. During the summer its too light, and i like a little shimmer. But right now its perfect. Got Flowerbomb, a lil baby w a large refill, just because i can be a little fickle with fragrance. A T3 curling iron which i am loving, its helping tame my wild mane which is a work in progress. And lastly found at a CCO, Frankly Fresh from the Mac Liberty of London collection. I really LOVE the consistency of the other two i have which are English Accents and Perennial High Style. They are really creamy with no sparkle. This one is creamy, but it has a shimmer to it so its a bit stickier and dryer consistency, but i still love the warm nudey color.

*Snow Princess*:D

Ebay is my best friend, and yet my worst enemy. Perusing along, the words Snow Princess caught my eye. The description holds for me fond memories of when i was little and was in the Nutcracker ballet for a few Christmases. The words together of Snow Princess form a magical correlation that sends my mind into fantasy land, and if there is a Snow Princess this is the nail polish that would imbibe her. Its silly really, but i do think that makeup and fantasy go hand in hand. With makeup you're altering the appearance of something, and providing an illusion that distorts reality. Anyways... i cant wait to try all the colors, i love essie mini sets. The winter collection should be next on my list:)

NOTD: Chanel Coromandel, love it. When i make a top 10 this makes the list.
