Online and Pigment hauls

my Fyrinnae package came today. i'm so excited! i cannot wait to try them out tomorrow. i took a picture but now i have a problem. the interface in this here blog has changed and i cannot find the 'add photoes' clicky button thingy. or anything else for that matter.

*goes off to explore*

i'll be back when i figure this thing out.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

oh bugger, the tabs still wouldn't load properly. i've decided to add pictures manually via html codes "_"

my Fyrinnae package came wrapped up in the most adorable panda wrapping paper. i bought a few colours from their endangered species line, namely snow leopard and meerkat but they sent me koala free!

i've done a small swatch test and i have to say i love all the colors. however, as their site had stated, it's better to pat than to sweep on the colors to achieve maximum effect.

as opposed to the above, my Meow Cosmetics package came wrapped in the kitchiest leopard wrapper. *loves*

i kinda "pressed" all the e/s pigments using toner into a lip palette for ease of use. i kinda like most of the colors, except a dark purple that i dug out and threw away, as well as the gold in the corner. it got flaky after i pressed it. i'm going to replaced the spaces with another liner that is still in the ziplock bag.

i ordered almost all the shades of the foundations in 'naughty' and some in 'frisky' and 'fierce'. i really like the foundation, it's very finely milled(i can see the powder flying when i whisk my brush) and feels light as air.

now all i have to do is wait for my Aromaleigh package to arrive before i make my next purchase again. i've run out of the foundation samples from Meow and i still need to sample another few shades. :P all the ones i bought were too dark!

besides makeup i also bought me some cloth panty liners and the ladycup from Tiny Tapir, which arrived just in time for me to use. TMI coming up!

the cloth pads all washed and ready for use.

cloth pads

they're really comfy and didn't make me itch. might be a bit bulky though so no wearing skintight pants/tights.

the LadyCup is a menstrual cup that you pop inside yourself much like a tampon. however what it does is that it stores the secretions rather than absorbing it. it promises to have an even lower risk of TSS than tampons.

it was a bit wide to manuveur inside but once it's in it's rather comfortable. also, no more pads for me! i try not to be responsible for disposing of plastics into the environment. i might however buy the smaller ladycup instead. :P

so that's all i have bought online for now. blogging is so tuff when you have to type in codes.. arrgghh!!
