Write Once, Run Melos

Sorry for the lack of updates! I've been feeling quite poorly these couple of days and Carmen has a lot of relatives staying over so our plans have gone awry countless times. But I thought I should at least post something before my neo-citron knocks me out cold. Carmen is planning on doing a swatch on something she got for Christmas real soon :).

Anyways, here are a couple of videos/songs that I wanted to share. Thanks Jesmer for the last one (catchy song despite the video) haha.

Tokyo Jazz Freak

Tok Tok Tokyo!
 Jazz freak~

Not that I know much about jazz, but this song by 45 has been one of my favourite songs for a long time now. Recently rediscovered it and have been putting it on repeat ever since. And well, since the world is ending, you should all listen to it ;). Also, thanks to Kim for freezing with me outside to snap a couple pictures haha. Oh, and while I was buying a couple of movies for my dad, I got carded cause well…I guess I don’t look over 18. Sigh. I guess I'll take it compared to looking 15 a year ago. Anyways, just incase we won’t be able to update this week, Merry Christmas and happy holidays everyone!

P.s. I kept delaying this post because we both thought we were able to fit a makeup shoot this week, but alas :(.

Topbox December 2012

So I got my December Topbox in the mail today. I opted for the more environmentally friendly packaging so I can’t say anything about the packaging other than it came in its usual cylinder box with a lid. But wow, this was a rather underwhelming box especially for December, a holiday month no doubt. I won’t rant on the contents anymore but I’ll have to wait for January’s box to see if I’ll be canceling my subscription. And I also heard Glossybox went up from $15 to $21 Canadian per month. Ouch.

Contents:

There’s no sifter, but just free flowing powder in a mini jar. It has really silky consistency, looked pearly and brown on my fingers, but quite light when swatched. I've included a swatch below.
