is always relative.
anyway I spent most of today attempting to analyse why Chekhov did so-and-so for his set design and costumes, and the other half trying to get as much make-up as I could.
I'm sure noone here wants to hear about the details of the significance of pauses in the play The Cherry Orchard, so.
Dad took my brother and I to Garden City today.
(for the non-Perthians, that's practically the biggest suburban mall that Perth has. And its single story. Yes. I am deprived.)
My goal was to get all the make-up I could get today, and leave the M.A.C. stuff for when I actually went to the city tomorrow.
So I waltzed over to Body Shop and inspected their make-up and their new collections.
I wasn't too impressed with their colour selection for eye-shadows;
they didn't even have a shade of black.
I wasn't there for their eye-shadow though, I was there to obtain an eye-shadow applicator brush and a foundation brush.
Ka-ching.
Eye-shadow brush was $18 bucks and the foundation brush was $25.
Luckily I had done all my research on price tags way before.
So because I was a prepared little piglet, I made a beeline for the next stop, MeccaCosmetica.
There was this adorable gay dude who asked if I needed any assistance.
I didn't actually, I was there for two things; namely:
Philosophy Never Let Them See You Shine Velvet Touch Primer
and
Stila Talking Smoky Eye Palette.
but he didn't know that and I decided to just humour the adorable gay dude (A.G.D.) and let him talk me through product reviews.
which he did admirably, but he was pretty much boycotted when I charmingly but firmly insisted that I was more interested in Philosophy than NARS.
I think I disappointed him, but oh well.
Life's like that.
And they were out of stock for the Smoky Eye Palette but A.G.D. tried to call up their other store on Hay Street for me to check if they had any left, though he couldn't get through.
I told him I was going there the next day though, so he just told me where the store was.
And started asking me about my weekend and things.
If only he was straight.
I attempted to look for the books I wanted in Dymock's.
But I was so disgusted when I realised that they also classified 'fantasy' under 'science fiction' that I couldn't stand it and had to walk out.
It's a matter of principle.
Anyway, this means that I can cross off three things from my make-up wishlist, and those are:
1. M.A.C. Studio Sculpt Foundation
2. Stila Smoky Eye Palette
3. M.A.C. Penultimate Eyeliner
4. Philosophy Never Let Them See You Shine Velvet Touch Primer
5. Body Shop Eyeshadow Brush
6. Body Shop Foundation Brush.
I shall review all these products once I get them, with pictures.
I doubt anyone would actually read my make-up reviews, but oh well.
