Photo: TotalFratMove.com

I’m going to share with you my New Year’s resolutions for 2014. I was going to just do it for beauty, but I thought it might be more interesting if I included some personal ones too.

BEAUTY

1. Learn to create a wing using eyeliner

2. Get better at using all types of eyeliner

3. Paint my nails more often

4. Sort through my collection and minimise it

5. Use more products/use up more products

6. Hold a blog sale

7. Donate to GiveAndMakeUp

PERSONAL

1. Exercise more

2. Get in shape

3. Try more foods (asparagus etc)

4. Get my bedroom re-decorated

5. Get a helix piercing

6. Read more books

7. Blog more (3 posts a week)

I don’t know if I will stick to every single one, but I will give it a good go. Let me know what things you would like to see on my blog, to enable me to create more and varied content.

What are your resolutions for the coming year?

There is also a mirror on the underside of the lid of the palette. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get eighteen 0.70g eyeshadows in Matte (M),...

Serial Sampler #17

I chose this sample as my free gift with purchase and I hadn’t heard of the brand before. It happens to be part of a series of four fragrances and they are all unisex/genderless. The designs of the full sized bottles are very interesting and artsy. Looking at the four, had I been able to pick which one to receive, I most likely would have chosen the one called 10am Flirt as it seems the fruitiest based of the four. The sample I have is Santal Sky by KIERIN NYC and it is a 1.5ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum. “Intertwined like vines, we stroll through Central Park. Leaves release their woody fragrance. Under a canopy of trees, in the center of it all, we are a million miles from city life. Music from impromptu drum circles, the rhythm of runners’ footsteps, diverse languages fill my ears like poetry. This retreat into nature refreshes my soul. The sun smiling down upon us, I pull my loved one close. In synchronicity we breathe.” It contains a mixture notes, such ...
