Belated Valentine's & CNY ! + Lady Gaga!

Hello guys! It's been awhile and yes, I know I say this like every time but it always seems to be the case when I post. Anyhow, I hope everyone had a great Valentine's Day and Chinese New Year if you celebrate it. I was home last weekend so I spent it with my family, which was quite nice. It always feels so good when I go home because it's a place away from the intensity of the college atmosphere, if that even makes any sense. I don't know if it's only me, but that's how I feel!

I didn't do much that weekend, but I did do some minor shopping. Because of all the hype, I decided to stop by the MAC counter to pick up the Lady Gaga Viva Glam lipstick. I think Dior was having an event that weekend at Nordstrom so it was very crowded. There was also a DJ blasting music, which kind of made it fun to shop around the store.

There were so many people trying out the Lady Gaga lipstick when I was there! I think they had only a couple left. I'm so glad I got my hands on at least one :) At first, I thought the color might be too pink for me, but I actually kind of like it on my lips.

I think it shows up a little bit brighter in real life but this was the best shot I could get of it on my lips. Lighting in my apartment has been pretty crappy this past week for some reason. It also has more of a sheen in real life since it's a Lustre finish.

You can see the sheen more in these swatches. The first swatch is with 2 swipes and the second watch is with 1 swipe. As you can see, this is a very build-able lipstick. You can go from very sheer to opaque depending on how much you apply.

I also bought a couple more things during that weekend, but I don't think it's worth mentioning.
I went to the CCO and there was nothing much. I feel like the CCO I go to doesn't really get new stuff anymore :( It has been pretty much the same similar selection. I need to go to the CCO in Vegas! They have so much more stuff.

Besides that, I also recieved Valentine's candy from the lovely Stacy at Stacieeelovesit the week before. It was so sweet because I wasn't expecting it at all.

She was one of my early followers so please check her out if you haven't! :) Thanks girl!

As for this weekend, it went by so fast! I've just been doing school work and re-watching Boys Over Flowers for breaks. After I post this, I need to continue to edit my film project. There's so much to do!

But I hope everyone had a great weekend!

Oh and if anyone is interested. I made a Formspring.me for fun! Feel free to ask me questions but please don't get too personal, or else I'd have to ignore you haha :)
