JOTD and melted make up !




Bouhou, impossible to publish decent pictures of my make up these days...unless you want to meet shiny skin and barely there make up as I tend to stick to basics to prevent disasters !

But I can wear jewelry whatever the temperature so ...

JOTD :
earrings : a soft rose stone with a slightly coral hue and a wood triangle to save it from boredom.
Necklace : same color of wood for a 70's look. As I was wearing a maxi dress, I was feeling in a very "Love and Peace" mood...
both pieces were bought at Casa Luca, one of my favorite little store in Montreal....

Alas ...the love and peace mood disappeared when I met the scale at my meeting for the weight loss. After sweating , eating more vegetables and fruits you can think of and drooling over ice creams that I'll never eat, I lost 0.8 miserable, ridiculous, infuriating lbs....At this rate, I am gonna be thin when I'll reach 70 years old....;-)))

A Lana Turner hair, JOTD and jealousy !






Jealousy, yes. I must admit I was burnt from the inside with envy when I saw a fantastic gold look on Meowmisu's blog. First, because she received gorgeous pigments, 2nd because her blending skills makes me look like a 3-year-old playing with make up Haha! So As I am a little bit masochist, I decided to try and copy the look which came out totally.... not like hers...My copper is too dark when she reached a stunning "liquid gold on my lid" effect. GAHHHHHHHHH (trying to reproduce the sound of the frustrated make up junkie, there ...)

I wanted to post anyway because I liked the swatch of Ceto (NYX round lipstick) on my lips. It's definitively a TOP 5 for me, I adore this color. I A-DO-RE this lipstick...

JOTD : can't remember where I picked the necklace but earrings were found in Casa Luca in Montreal. A little shop full of lovely surprises (even my wallet is surprised each time I venture there....Wallet sounding stunned : oh where did the money in my tummy went ?????)

Weight loss update : I registered both to the gym and a program to lose weight (the healthy way). I try not to starve myself but I am craving food...It's just been 1 week and a half ...And, I am supposed to go through 40 weeks (OH LORD !!!!!). My home scale showed 170 lbs on Monday the 1st of June. Today I was weighing 165.2 lbs (program scale) which is too much a drop to be true (but scales are different...I know but I want to believe in fairies !!!).
