I lied about posting pictures

Yep. Entries are still text only because A) i suck and B) my camera is dead.

Anywhaez, I didn't really do a full face today.

My skin is FINALLY clearning up (after about 2 months of under-the-skin breakout) and I'm trying not to put a lot of products on and curtail the healing process.

Today was just my MSF natural in medium, style blush, blacktrack fluidline, and MUFE smoky lash.

Also, I got the costco brush set (because i am a recessionista indeed) and I am sooper dooper impressed! Very soft, good assortment of brushes, and the eyelash curler it came with didn't dissappoint!

It was rainy today so I did the whole blow-dry-my-hair-with-a-shit-ton-of-product-in-it-and-see-how-it-goes kind of look. I ended the day with a sort of Quinn Fabray hairstyle, slightly wavy and in a cute headband. It wasn't too bad. Hooray for Redken's smoothing serum!

I think thats all for today. Tomorrow is friday. Maybe a FOTD?

Apple Cider Toner Crap

So I followed bubzbeauty's tutorial and made myself some apple cider toner and a scrub/mask. Here is what I have found after one day:

PROS:
Seemed to make my skin softer.
All natural.
Cheap as free to make.
Got rid of a shit-ton of dry skin.

CONS:
Smells AWFUL.
I made my mask a little too thin so it dripped everywhere.
Hard to store.
Doesn't have a good shelf life.

I'll keep you updated.

In other news, I have been absofreakinglutely addicted to NYX's lipstick in Thalia. It's like a darker MLBB, and it's incredibly creamy.

The whole reason I mention these two products in one post is this:
I am breaking out on my upper lip line. =(
I'm hoping the apple cider stuff will help get rid of it, and at the same time the lipstick is helping to conceal it.

Thats it for now! I'll try to take some pictures for tomorrow.
