Fail

Not Epically, but getting close. Fell out of the blogging thing (again). Anywho...dyed the hair. It is Black with a layer of Red underneath curtesy of Manic Panic's Red Passion. I also got my nose pierced on the left side. Tiny stud which pleases me to no end!

Back to the fail....the Nail Polish I am currently wearing (Sally Hansen Lacquer Shine in Glossy) is a complete failure. I love the colour. Black with a Red Shimmer, but the formula leaves quite a bit to be desired. It is heavy. 24 hours later, I could still make a dent in it. Yes, it is soft. The application is either super thin and streaky or a thick, gloppy mess. This is one of those sad stories. You reach for it time and again because you love the colour, only to remember why you haven't worn it in such a long time. Reminds me of half of my closet....I will take pictures if there is every any sunlight to be had!

Trying

Time to try this again. Changed the theme. Hopefully this will better reflect the direction that I am heading in.

Bought some new foundation today. Hopefully it is pale enough for my complexion. It would certainly help if I could get my skin under control. It seems to be breaking out like crazy. I know that I "worry" it too much, but shit! Just another thing to put on the list I guess.
