The first step is admitting you have a problem........ awe crap....

Hello... I am Samiee and I am addicted to make-up. My recent fix? Urban Decay pallets. Every time I go to the beauty counter I tell myself you are just buying the 1 color... 1. and the sales girl always says have you seen the pallet this color comes in? Me: Ya... but I really just need this 1 color. Sales Girl: Well for $36 you get X amount of colors and these extras... you are paying $17 for just this one color... Yup she got me hook line and sinker! Me: OOOHHH Pretty....

I totally blame the Urban Decay facebook page for my current addiction (yes I know that it is just a defense mechanism to divert the blame on someone else... save it for my therapist k?.)  I blame them because they have all these pictures of different looks using their eye shadows... How can I resist? For the last year I have been scanning the globe in search for the perfect bronze/gold/shimmer shadow... Alas I have found it! UD in Half Baked! This is the color of my DREAMS! and now it is mine all MINE!!!!(insert evil sinister laugh)
Here are some examples of the awesome looks they post on FB using UD shadows! For reals! How can a girl RESIST????? Oh that's right...I can't..... Damn..... Oh well at least I will look smokin hot!

"A Weak Man Has Doubts before a decision. A Strong Man Has Them Afterwards."

This quote is brought to you by Carl Kraus, which I discovered watching Criminal Minds (which I am totally obsessed with!). This quote really spoke to me. In our lives we make decisions every single day. Some are important and most are not. In the last few months I personally have made some choices that had me praying where the right thing to do. Guess only time will tell.

One decision I made was to upgrade my phone and thus far it has been AWESOME! I got the LG Ally Droid! I am not gonna lie at first this thing was smarter than me... but I am slowly getting the hang of it! Totally addicting! I can use the Internet UNLIMITED! (dangerous) and there are some seriously wicked apps! Never thought I would be one of these techie people but sadly I have succumbed to it...

My other new love..... St. Moriz self tanner! You can't buy it here in the states but you can get it on Amazon. I got 2 bottles shipped from the UK for just over $26. I like it because it doesn't make you look fake. I am as pasty pale as they come and any little bit of color I can get is appreciated, except lobster red... I don't like that.When you first put it on you are a lot darker than you will be after you rinse it off. This is not uncommon when it comes to self tanner.I found out about this self tanner from a Beauty Blog I follow.

Just under 30 days till I go on vaca to CALIFORNIA!! Woot Woot! Going to see Shaun and Virginia! I could not be more excited to go. I even bought a SWIMSUIT (shudder) and of course a cover-up to go with it. I miss my friends terribly.. why the hell do you guys have to keep moving away? Is it something I said? LOL.
