A very Product Junkie Christmas!

[telesilla]

I've been pining after the Urban Decay Naked palette for a while and so I was pretty happy when I opened my present from my mother and there it was! I also got the Electric set of UD's 24/7 eyeliners and so I was able to put together a nice look with fairly neutral eyeshadow and little pop of color from the appropriately named Junkie (green) eyeliner. Between the hooded eyelids and the glasses, my eyeliner and lashes are about all anyone sees, so that worked out nicely. I chose to go with a very Christmasy and not at all subtle nail polish and let me tell you, China Glaze's Ruby Pumps fits that description nicely. It's SO sparkly and hypnotizing.

All that and some of Demeter's Incense* in the new perfume oil roll-on in my stocking made for a happy product junkie.

How about you all? Any good presents or holiday looks you feel like squeeing about?


*Incense is a fabulous resiny scent that smells just like a stick of unburned incense; it's definitely worth checking out if you like that sort of thing.

I actually got a fair bit of makeup, but it was mostly stuff I'd picked out at Big Lots as stocking stuffers while I shopped with my mom. A couple of Neutrogena blushers, Revlon's Carbonite nail polish (wearing it now--gorgeous!), Revlon's Molten Metal eyeshadow duos from this summer, and a few discontinued Revlon lipsticks.

I also got a Sephora gift card, but I'm stuck on what to use it for. I definitely want Illamasqua's Panic blush, because I've been lemming a true red blush for a while now. Just don't know what else to get to use up the rest of the card.

I got some makeup that I had picked out: a couple of Urban Decay eyeshadows, metallic and glittery cream eyeshadow palettes. :)

Not new at all, but I've dug out a Comme des Garcons 2 candle I've been saving for a while, and now several rooms smell like incense-and-ink. It smells very dark purple; I love it.

I got a huge palette of no-name eyeshadow. I'm thrilled because it's a great way to try out color families that I would normally be afraid to buy.

I got some product swag as well this Christmas! I always squee like a little kid when that happens. LOL

I got one magnetic nail polish that I already love to bits, as well as a whole kit of wonderful nail decorations like glitters, laser strands, sparklies etc, and also purple nail foil and nail foil adhesive. So, I'll have to try that out soon too. :)

And on top of that, I also got a red eye shadow, something that I've wanted for some time but haven't had time to look for. I've just wanted it to try to copy some make-up designs I've seen.
