Don't Bite Your Nails: Essie My Place or Yours+pa A75 Swatch

       After wiping away my chipped and beautiful, Bling Dynasty, with Glitzerland over it (both by OPI). NOTE: Super great combo, it gets a nude light gold, I got a lot of compliments! I decided to go back to summer. I have a combo, that creates a bright pink with a peachy sheen... did I forget to say, I really like sheens and shimmer? Here are some pictures:

I'm having problems with my cuticles, time to use lotion.



The lighting is unnatural, I'm also using tungsten camera setting.

1. Shiseido- Moisture Mist Base Coat (This is from way back, I don't know if it's still sold)
2. Essie- My Place or Yours (Bright pink, coralish?)
3. pa- A75 (You can find this at your local Japanese beauty store, this is the peachy/beige sheen+shimmer layer)




Hehheh, it's me. yeah no...
No makeup, getting ready to wash my face, brush my teeth, and sleep.
The color is slightly washed out.

  I loving golds! I'm going to get some darker colors for the fall! SHOP TILL I have no money.
         Byebye.

In My Ears 10/02/2010

        I really like music, if you asked my friends, they'd say there isn't a day that I am without my iTouch (best purchase, only thing that I use religiously). So here are some songs that I am currently in love with:

Miss A- Breathe

Far East Movement ft. Dev, The Cataracs- Like a G6

Shakira ft. Freshlyground- Waka Waka

2NE1- Can't Nobody

Some of my all time favorites include:

Metro Station- California

Postal Service- Nothing Better

       I prefer my music to keep my mood good. Sad love songs are not for me.
       I hope you enjoy my music, and please share some songs with me as well, have a good day.

Introduction

       For a while now, I have been wanting to make a blog. I wasn't sure what type of blog, I knew that I wanted to talk about my daily life, but what else? From the beginning of this year, I've become increasingly interested in makeup and skincare. Of course there are tons of beauty and life blogs out there, but why not get my views as well. The reason why my blog is called "Valerie's Timeline of Life and Beauty" is because, well 1. My name is Valerie, 2. It's a timeline, because I've just started in makeup, and I would like to show you my process of getting into it, and 3. I'm going to blog on my life.
       As the typical beauty blog, I hope to give swatches and reviews, but I will also attempt to show you how I use the makeup I get. Of course that will come with failures because I really how no idea how to do this. So please, don't be too harsh, I would love to learn though.
        So, I can't wait to get started, and I hope you'll follow me and maybe join me to learn something I've never done before!
