Makeup Goodies


Just wanted to share that this “Perfect Black” eyeliner that comes in the Too Faced Cat Eye Kit is THE BEST, THE BLACKEST, THE SMOOTHEST eyeliner I’ve ever used, just like paint. They’re $10 at SEPHORA, RIGHT NOW! (originally $20, then marked down to $12 and now $10 for Black Friday)

 And let me just add on that this “Penny Talk” from Essie is probably the coolest nail polish I’ve ever tried/owned. I noticed a James Bond gold leaf “‘18 Karat Gold” nail polish for 30 freakin bucks from OPI and was completely bummed, because I’ve seen lots of cool metallic nail polishes online (mainly tumblr) and i REALLY wanted one, but i had yet to find something like this, especially for so cheap. It’s a really strong goldish/copper (hence “Penny”) metallic that has very great coverage. While at the store I only swiped on a single layer and it’s absolutely opaque.  it looks a little green while stile in the bottle, but i guess that’s the “patina” that’s found on pennies ;) but once you apply it, the color is unbelievable, i find it rather perfect. Love it! :3


Goes on almost clear, but looks fucking awesome at night! This one is used when I go through my clubber/rave/crazy-spastic/whatever phase and apply it to long ass acrylics. Glow in the dark nail polish from American Apparel.

Tina Carlyle

I've been  thinking of bleaching & then dying my hair blonde off and on for about three/four 
weeks now. I can't decide if I'd feel like me with blonde locks....and I really can't stand the thought of having one, single color cover my whole head.  Also for the last two weeks, I've considered going darker.........after just  now seeing a gif of Cameron Diaz in The Mask,  I'm reminded, or the uptienth time, of why I wanted to color my hair in the first place. I'm a very visual person, so when I see something that I like I'm really drawn to it, so all i keep seeing is these beautiful blondes and gorgeous raven haired goth girls.

Sinister

we went to see Sinister yesterday, and yeah, no i don’t recommend it (i thought i’d have nightmares, but they have yet to come…hopefully WON’T). for someone who loves creepy shit, that movie didn’t sit right with me. i mean i won’t even post gifs of it. maybe it’s just me and since everyone reacts differently to different situations, so maybe it won’t be as frightening to someone else. the soundtrack really did it for me. of course they edit the movie so that that creepy ass music plays the loudest at the scariest parts, i know i wouldn’t have been as afraid if the music didn’t fluctuate as much, the visuals wouldn’t creep me out as much without the support of the soundtrack.

but anyway, the story if pretty much The Amityville Horror with a little twist. You can pretty much tell what’ll happen once the story begins, but there are little surprises here and there. The one thing that sets this movie apart from other horror movies is the creepy factor. I guess that’s the point, but the ‘home movies’ recording style, all filmed at night, sets a very appropriate tone for this genre. The murders in the movie were creative, that’s so sick to say, but I’ve never seen these ideas before. The whole talk of Pagan beliefs & deities and Norwegian Black Metal (my sister and I looked at each other at that part) hit a little close to home, even if it was just in passing; these little things that are also personal, made this one a little scarier for me. So it was original from that standpoint, but the main character reeked of Johnny Depp in the Secret Window and the children ghosts seemed sorta inexperienced & their makeup sucked so bad. Maybe it was a low budget (???) The film, for the most part, had original ideas, so i def see why The Daily Targum gave this one a B. I think the story needed a little more development, and felt too short. My favorite is how the whole family slept through EVERYTHING.

Staunton Hill

i just went and watched Staunton Hill after this gif popped up on my dash. i got really excited about watching this as i was reading the synopsis, since i absolutely ADORE ‘Crazy Redneck Slashers’ AND because that fat lady from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning was gon be in it. i gotta say that was one of the worst crap shoots i’ve ever seen. just because your father is George Romero, doesn’t mean you should follow suit, especially if this is the quality of your work. now that is what i call riding on the coattails of yo daddy.
