Please do note the quotation marks in the title.  It's quite imortant.

So I love browsing different makeup websites and looking at the clearance item.  It's one thing to haul, but it's a whole different thing to haul while cosmetics are on sale!  2 mascaras for the price of 1?  I'm sold!  Ojon's Takawana Ball for $35??  I'm there!  Working at Sephora gets you 20% off everything?  WHERE DO I SIGN UP?!??

Er yea..

So I was browsing the clearance section of Asos.com, which does have some great deals, when I saw this:

YOU CALL THAT A SALE?!??

err sure buddy.  That's only 37 CENTS off!  That's like what, 2 percents?

Anyhow.. thought it was funny and you'd all enjoy it!

Btw.. this type of sale is so not juicy.. if my coworker Gimpy/Limpy/Sleepy/Grumpy Bear saw it, he would shake his head and say his favorite phrase, "No Gloria... No!"

Another Btw.. I bought a shimmery black eyeshadow from Urban Decay in December, and I cannot remember where I placed it.

I went to Sephora to do some Christmas shopping, as well as to stock up on some new things for myself, when Riley West, the MUA for Urban Decay, started chatting up with me as I was crouched in front of Lancome's Artliner's display case.  Ms. Riley is totally into funky color hair like me, so from where she was standing (and where I was crouching), she got really interested in mine.  After a while, her, being a pro, started talking about make up.  Me, being a make up whore, told her that if she's not busy, I'm up for a make over and she can do whatever she want with me.

Now I wish my camcorder was working, because I had made a small video showing the make up I had put on prior to going to Sephora, so I can show you guys what she was seeing.  I was playing around with 3 shades of pink eyeshadows from a Majolica Majorca palette (another Japanese brand that I love), so she took that as inspiration and a starting part for the looks you see up there.  She spent a LOT of time blending the colors out so it still looks sophisticated and finished.  To get the glitter line to be that thick, so actually used a tweezer to take off that ring on the top so more glitter can go on the brush.

She pretty much transformed my cutesy pink look into a super Urban, super punk fuschia/purple/black smokey look, complete with a super hot line of glitter on top of my lash line.  I don't think the pictures captured the intensity of the colors, and again, I wished my camcorder worked.  I think my camcorder records in a truer light where you can see how dynamic this look was.  I must figure this out!

Anyhow, I ended up buying the key items to re-create the look.  I ended up not getting any of the fuschia/pink colors she used since I have a LOT of pinks and fuschias already.  But I did up buy the rest of them.

• Heavy Metal Glitter Liner in Spandex
• Liquid Liner in Perversion (to line the top lash line underneath the glitter liner)
• Smoke Out Eye Pencil in Smoke (to line the bottom lash line)
• Eyeshadow in Oil Slick (outer crease), Sin (inner crease and brow bones), and Hot Pants (on top of Fishnet)
• Deluxe Eyeshadow in Fishnet (used as an all-over color AND my cheeks color)
• Big Fatty Mascara
