Purple & Skulls


Tight details: Sugar skulls from Target. I am hanging out in the Catholic Mausoleum in San Joaquin Cemetery - my fave cemetery. Fast pic before the guards come - I just always wanted to shimmy up onto the podium there. I have this thing for Catholic churches and imagery.  I met up with an online friend to snap some photos, got some cool pics for an upcoming zine. Ragweed allergies and an empty stomach did nothing for my mood and energy level though.


Makeup if your into that: Too Faced Melted in Villain on my lips. I held off on buying this color for awhile but finally saw some swatches and needed to grab it!  My brows are a now discontinued Colourpop color that I am sad to see go because it is now my favorite brow color! I am in a dark purple mood - maybe it is my inner mood or the fall cold air I am starting to feel in my achy bones! Whatever I really like dark purple right now!

Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick Review

I am in love with Kat Von D's Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks. I have two colors and want to get more.


I bought L.U.V. first - because it stood out being dubbed a 'rich violet' color. Right now I am all about the purples!


I really liked L.U.V. so when I had a Sephora return a few days later I bought Ayesha because I have been wanting a lavender color that stood out (most have been pale).

After trying KVD's lipsticks and finding them a bit drying I was hesitant to try the Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks. I am glad I did because they work out (for me) better than the lipsticks. The wand applicator makes them easy to apply. The formula is wet letting you apply it smoothly and dries to a matte finish. You have about a minute window before the color sets into place. The colors stay on a long time and the slim lip gloss container is super portable. Bonus they do not have a funky taste or smell - important for me!

I have a few more colors on my wish list that I will pick up as soon as my wallet allows me to. A tip is to order them directly from Sephora - all the Sephora locations I have been to have super picked over displays.
