WHERE IS MY WALLET!?!? :(

So yesterday, I went to the mall (70 miles away from our houses) with the boyfriend and after some shopping we decided to go watch a movie. After the movie we ate ice cream and then we went back home. After dinner I took my purse and I searched for my wallet...but it was nowhere to be found, I instantly started to freak out and getting really nervous. I called to my boyfriend asking him to search for it in the car but...nothing!
So, I grabbed the phone and called the mall asking if someone had found my wallet and, once again...nothing. So the lady gave me the number of the movie theater but I called dozens of time and no one answered me :S
Suddendly I realized that my cousin lives 5min away from that mall, and I asked if he could possibly go there ask for a "floral pink wallet". After like....1 hour talking with the tickets men, the popcorns men....someone called the manager and the lady said that someone had found a wallet with documentation of the person my cousin was asking for but...she needed some more information about the content of the wallet. So my cousin called me and passed to the lady and I described everything, luckily I knew my ID number's so she realised that I really was the owner of that wallet and she gave it to him.

I was so relieved when this all ended, now I already have my wallet with me and the content is totally intact even the money...everything.
I am glad to know that there are still good people in this world (:

Have you ever lost your wallet or something really important?
Tell me your stories x

Much love,
Gigi

OMG, you have no idea...I'm soooo pissed off right now. I just droped my face powder and it looks like !"#$%.
I already pressed it but it's not really working because as it dries it is cracking again...
I'm so mad at myself!

Hello! How are you today? So here is just a quick post showing my outfit of the day

Tomorrow or wednesday I'm going to shop for some Spring Clothes. What do you think I should get? What are the must-haves for this season?

Another picture of me.
Today's a sunny day.

Happy easter and 50th post

Happy easter to everyone! Hope you have a wonderful day!
At the moment I'm at the living room with my mom, my granny and a friend of us that arrived yesterday from Azores :D
While the mans of the house are at the garage playing bumper pool. Which I tried to play but I lost 2 times in row...think I gotta practice more lol

Yesterday, I spent the afternoon working on a new template for the blog but now I have the jpeg of it and don't know how to "html'it" (yes, I just made up a new word)

Much love,
Gigi

So guys have you fooled someone today or have you been fooled?

Hey dolls.
I just finished dinner. And now it's time for a review over my day.
So, this morning I...SLEPT, yes I know shame on me, but I was really tired!
Then, after lunch I just went out with my beautiful boyfriend and we had ice cream and then we came home and watched new moon :D once again ahaha
After that my bf went to work, and I decided to put my sleeves up and make some eye primer. I'll be testing this homemade eye primer and then I'll do a video on how to do it, to show you ladies.

This days I've been spending quite a lot of my time looking for makeup online, and I just made my wishlist.
So, I want:
+120 eyeshadow palette

+Too Faced Mood Swing Lip Gloss (I'm in love with those since I saw it at sephora. I really want them all, PLEASE?!)
+Too Faced Powder Blusher in "La vie en rose" and maybe in " Papa Don't Peach"
+Sigma Face and Eyes Kit
+I also want a gel eyeliner, but I don't know what brand I should get ( any advises?)

I guess...this means I gotta start saving up some money, since I also need to buy spring clothes.

Much love,
Gigi

Finally the VIDEO!!

Finally here is my video:

I had such an hard time editing this one, because my voice was not in sync, so I just had to remove it, add some music, and put the anotations directly on youtube!
This is how it ended:
What you think about my video?
It was useful for you? Just leave a comment telling me what you think. I need some feedback, dolls!

Love u all!

So not fair...I want hot weather, I want to wear sandals, dresses and shorts!

I just want to chill and go on vacations with my boyfriend :)

So today, I spent the day at home. I should have studied chemistry but I skipped it to do highlights on my mom's hair (more interesting, right?) lol

Cappuccino and cookies before bed!

Night is a wonderful opportunity
to take rest,
to forgive,
to dream,

to get ready for all the battle
that you have to fight tomorrow.

Essence Haul!

Hello...so prom is gone and now I finally have more time to write here (not really :x )!
What I got to say about prom? AMAZING I loved it so much, it's a shame that it only happens once at a lifetime lol

Moving into the haul:
xSo, "essence" is a european makeup brand that sells their products at a low price. And they are good quality.
I ordered it online but this store only ships to portugal.
But you can also find it at ULTA.COM if you live in the U.S..

xHere it goes:
















I got:
+Glossy Lipbalm in Sweet Strawberry
+Magic Design Mascara in black
+Pure skin compact powder (not available at ULTA.com)
+Catwalk fashion tape (not available at ULTA.com)

What about you, have you haver used essence cosmetics?

Much love,

Sunday is over...
Tomorrow starts the "prom night countdown" (it's saturday) and I don't even have the shoes -.-'
And I also need to make an appointment to wax my eyebrows.
This week will be very busy, because I still need to buy the shoes, get my roots done, wax, help with the prom decorations. And with all the school work and gymnastic practices it's not easy.
Also I want to make a "minimergency kit" for anything that may happen. So I'm thinking in a kit with:

xBobby pins
xSafety pins
xSome makeup (touch-up)
xBreathmints/Chewing gum
xTissues
xPerfume
xDeodorant
xBand Aids
xQ-tips
xMaybe pain relievers? (What do you think?)

What do you think of this kit? There is anything else I should take with me?

Much Love,
Gigi

P.S.:Today, I also recorded a "How to fix broken makeup" video, that I'll post over the next week.

BACK!!!!

Hi guys!!!
First post of 2010.
I hope everyone's having a great year so far.
-----------------------------------

Moving on into the actual post...
So, the explanation for the lack of updates is because lately I went trough a lot of stuff and lots of mess in my life and I didn't feel like doing posts and everything. But the truth is that everything is cool now, I feel happy and I want to comeback with some posts here...even though I don't have much free time in my life. I've been busy with school work, acrobatics, etc.

As you know it's been a week since valentine's day... And guess what? I didn't spend the day with my bf, because I was out of town. So, I decided to go shopping to fill the hole inside me (great excuse, right?). At first I bought some shirts, a jacket and some accessories. Then I went to MAC (FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER!!!!) willing to try their "studio fix fluid", because next week I have a photoshoot and next month I have my prom, so i needed I really good foundation.

I was expecting to spend like 20€ or something, because I checked the price at their website and it 26US$. So I asked the girl the price of it and she said: €3o (40US$)...I was like: "WT&$&#%$&?" But then she asked me if I would like to try it, and I said yes. So, she applied on me the foundation, concealer, powder and mascara, when I looked at the mirror I was so happy with the huge difference, that I ended up buying the studio fix fluid. I used it every single day this past week and so far I am REALLY REALLY happy with it.

I know it was very expensive but I don't regret it, it works AMAZING on my skin.

Huge post already...it's better for me to shut up.
Love,
x Gigi

P.S: If you want me to do a review on the studio fix fluid or if you have any questions about it, feel free to leave a comment here.
