A journey into makeup

Song-"Supermodel" by Jill Sobule
Video- "Clueless"

Hello lovely readers,

I am not a make up girl. I mean minus special events I really only wear eye make-up (eye shadow and mascara) but until high school I didn't even wear this much. In high school my makeup was sunscreen (in my facial moisturizer) and chap stick. Then freshman year of college I wore mascara but only on my top lashes but one of my friends asked me why I half my eye lashes were black and half were red, I got very conscious of my eye make up so I started working on my bottom lashes. I am not really good with putting things near my eyes so it took awhile and I only wore mascara on my bottom lashes on special days. But then I started doing it all the time and I became one of those girls who could not leave the house with out mascara. The summer after I graduated college I added eye shadow... though for the most part I think it looks just like my eyelids (maybe I should be more adventurous). 
My usual makeup
But my real confession is until a few days ago I never used make up remover. I mean I cleaned my face and I made sure never have bleak streaks under my eyes before leaving the house but never used make up remover. Then I was in the grocery store the other day and I saw some and put it in my basket. The last few nights I have been using it I haven't noticed a difference.

Here is the before shot 

The cleansing pad after I am done.


Here is my after...not much difference
It doesn't look that different so I don't know if I am cleaning wrong or if I need to get a better makeup remover, or if the face I wear water proof mascara means it never comes off.

This is what I am currently using
I am not a big make up person so I will probably never write about make up again but if you have any suggestions when it comes to this I am always happy to listen.

Thanks,
-Blaire

My thoughts from Thursday

For the most part I like my Thursday. 
I got to sleep in and then I started the second season of Gilmore Girls. 
I own all the seasons and I go through them frequently

One of my favorite episodes
I worked on my blog and still figuring out Twitter.
I also thanks to a challenge I am in I have found new bloggers. 


I did a little bit of redecorating. 
A few days ago my Audrey Hepburn poster fell down. 
As much as I love Audrey Hepburn I am not sure I want it up anymore. 
It just seemed kind of high schooly to me... and I want to look more grown up.
Before with the hole where the poster used to be. 
After with some rearranging
Then sadly I had to go to class. 
It is my evaluation class... and I feel it is inspiring as Ben Stein in Ferris Bueller.

I know you are not suppose to judge a book by its cover. 
But I think it with my text book for the class... I think you can do this.
This is my word photo for the challenge
The book looks boring... and guess what is... and with no pictures in it. 

But while I was in class a friend of mine, who loves a very indie feel of music,
and he sent my a Facebook message with two songs her likes.
He is determined to get us main stream people into indie music.

Song: A Punk
By: Vampire Weekend
I liked this song. 

That was my Thursday hope your day was good. 

I found this picture at a new blog I am following Girl plus everything else

It follows my blogging goals so I thought I would give it a try. 

Happy Hearts

Who Put the Bomp-Barry Mann

It is a really old school song but I thought it was great for welcoming in the month of February. Especially a February that starts at 58 degrees. I know I am single and I don't have a Valentine but I am such a hopeful romantic that I get caught up in the idea of Valentine's day. The day when you get to express your feelings. In a very corny way I think it would be sweet for the guy I like to use Valentine's day as a reason to tell me he liked me too. But that is probably something that only happens in a movie. Oh well I can dream right?































 Hope you all have a wonderful February!
To my future Valentine
