Kitty in a box!

But, you'll be bewildered when you find out what was originally packaged/mailed in that huge thing.

(And yes, I only ordered 2 eyeshadow because I prefer shopping at a counter/store as opposed to via mail to avoid breakage and what-not)

Random Quote of the Day:

"If there is no struggle, there is no progress."


Aaaaaaand, I was supremely bummed when I got the mail today (not the FedEx'ed package, but the actual mail) as I'd ordered a 4-pan MAC palette from a fellow LJ user, and the palette is broken. Not the entire palette, but the right hand side of it is broken off, and, ehh, not aesthetically pleasing. Oh well,it still holds the eyeshadow, so whatever.


Random question time!!

What is your favorite perfume

(or cologne, or scent)?


I personally love/wear J'adore Dior, Viva La Juicy and Harajuku Lover's "G".

But not all at once, because that would be gross.

xoxo, Courtney

Perfume... I don't wear perfumes, but a little while ago I fell for the smell of vanilla, so for perfumed shower gels and deo I use whatever contains enough vanilla to make me smell like marshmellow :D

And awww...
Cats in boxes *dies from the cuteness* (☆ω☆)

I actually smelled that for the first time about 6 weeks ago. It's really pretty, but I have NO idea what it smells like (it reminds me of something), and the woman trying to sell it to me said, "Duh, daisies"--but that was certainly not it, haha.

And yeah, MAC Canada shipping/packaging sucks!

STRAWBERRIES. and Violet, I think... they're the most prominent for me.
I couldn't put my finger on it, and the lady behind the counter told me, haha.

This is what's in it: Strawberry, Violet Leaves, Ruby Red Grapefruit, Gardenia, Violet Petals, Jasmine Petals, Musk, Vanilla, White Woods.

LOL, I laughed the first time I ordered some MAC online. It came in a huge box, for such small items..
What eyeshadows did you get? I can't tell.

My newest favourite scent is Daisy by Marc Jacobs. And my old trustworthy scent that I wear all the time is Nina Ricci by... Nina Ricci, lmfao.

I want to buy all the Harajuku lover's perfumes. I'm thinking of ordering them off Sephora sometime.

I LOVE the Harajuku Lover's perfume (well, most of them, I think 2 of them stink), but they're so overpriced it's pathetic.

Yeah they're pretty pricey.. what was it I saw, $45 for 1ounce? I mean, it's not HORRIBLE, that would last me at least a few years, because I don't wear perfume often (Since i don't go out much), and have others I would switch between..

$49 for 1oz. Seriously. That's sickening, haha.

It's $29 for .4oz or something at Shoppers Drug Mart!!

Oh! and you know what my favourite scent is on guys? Nautica Voyage. SOOOO yummy. It's like Axe body spray, but more sophisticated, and grown-up.

Oh, and the shadows are Honey Lust and Star Violet! I hate ordering shadows through the mail (but, I do), so I only bought 2 as I'm hoping to get to a MAC counter within the month :P

Star violet is one of my faaaves.
But yeah, I much prefer buying in person, so I know that it's something I will actually use. Unless i've seen a million swatches of it online.. haha.

My current fave eyeshadows: wintersky, and Arctic grey. lovelovelove.
I bought Flip! and Henna recently, but haven't tried them out. I'm sure they'll be my new faves soon, haha.

I have a collection and tend to pickup something new when I like it but right now I am addicted to L by Gwen Stefani. It smells sooooo good but you could put 1/2 the bottle on and its such a natural scent I don't think anyone would notice. I'm a fruit/flower/spice perfume lover and also like the Kate Moss perfume because it smells so much like roses.

For guys it has to be Pi by Givenchy... *drool* just love to smell that stuff on a guy!

Hahahaha@ half a bottle. If I put on half a bottle of anything I own, I might die from smell-shock.

I don't really know what Pi smells like, I'll have to go sniff it out!

I don't pay attention to what other people wear, either, unless it's congesting me. Hahaha.
