What This Blog Is All About

I originally planned for this blog to be about what i love; movies, fashion, television, etc..... But I've decided that i'm going to use this more as a journal for myself. I don't expect anyone to follow me or even read this for that matter, but I'm going to use this blog as a coping mechanism for stress. I think that if I write down what's stressing me out in life, I'll realize that these things are way too little for me to be worrying about. I tend to get stressed out extremely easily over the tiniest things, and I feel that if I start writing it down for the world to see, I'll realize how absurd these "stressful" things really are. I understand how so many other people are going through horrible things in their life and they should be the ones stressed out, not me. Hopefully by reading this blog, you will realize that you shouldnt worry about the little things, like I'm trying to do. =]

MAC Eyeshadow Product Review


Right now I'm going to talk about the MAC eyeshadow Carbon A79 and the MAC brush 266.

When I went to Macy's, a girl at the MAC counter wanted to apply some makeup on me. She first used this eyeshadow as an eyeliner and it looked amazing!! She used the 266 brush to apply. It is a very high pigmented eyeshadow, so this was the perfect brush to apply the perfect amount! You almost need to brush your eyelashes to get a nice line or then it would be too thick. It's not waterproof, which would be a big problem for me because I have really watery eyes, but it stays put all day!!!

This eyeshadow and brush combo is perfect for day and evening looks, and I would highly recommend it! The MAC Carbon A79 eyeshadow is only $14.50 and the 266 brush is $19.50. The brush is a little expensive but it is totally worth it because it is the perfect one to apply this eyeshadow. I hope this was a helpful review. If you have any questions about these products before you purchase it, ask me!
