photoshop in real life (i.e., makeup)

My subscription box from Birchbox came today! I've had the subscription for several months and I've been enjoying it because I like having samples of new things to play with and because honestly, even a system that selects from a limited number of options based on a relatively brief questionnaire has at least as good a chance of picking out makeup and skincare products that I'll like as I do.

I just painted my nails the color of ink on dollar bills, which is pretty great. I also tried out the Yes to Grapefruit CC Cream, and it actually made my skin look amazing…except that "Light" was practically a self-tanning product on me, and it only comes in that and "Light-Medium". Alas. I left it on all day hopefully anyway, and it stayed all glowy and not-too-shiny and way-too-dark. Finally removed it with the blueberry towelettes that I also received.

I also got some kind of super-fancy hand masks that I haven't tried yet, and some okay brown eyeshadows. Sadly, all pictures I take of myself turn out terrible as I am apparently incapable of not making weird faces at myself, which makes me reluctant to engage in proper makeup blogging.

Speaking of things that come in colors: new iPhones! I want the silver one.
