Walking into winter


First of all..it's been an unbelievably warm winter here in NY. The only real snow we had was on halloween..which was completely out of the ordinary. I went up to Montreal for New Years and if you want snow..I would definitely recommend taking a drive up there.

Anyways..Angie won the carousel gloss contest and we tried out her new lip glosses today and had a little photoshoot!

These glosses look really nice, depending on the color you use (I feel certain ones only go with certain skin tones). The applicator is a bit small and the consistency is not what I would have liked (kinda globby and sticky). It took us a few minutes to apply the gloss as it was so thick. But I think this is what makes it so pigmented. Some of the colors stain more than others (candy apple) and we found that loop de loop and kaleidoscope leave a glitter on the lips.

Overall, really pretty bright colors! A bit pricey..but fabulous!

This is Angela wearing "Loop de Loop". A shimmery royal blue.




And this is me wearing "Kaleidoscope"...a deep purple with multicolor shimmer.

And then a few fun ones of posing and jumping around!

I should know who I am by now..

Remember waaaay back when I started this blog I posted this video?

I have a pretty strong connection with the meaning of this song and it really holds a special place in my heart. A few of the photos in my video are from experiences that share a connection with the song for me..along with the "winter" theme.




I really would like to learn the instrumentals because it seems incomplete...
