Ukraine’s Got Talent winner Kseniya Simonova, 24 makes stunning sand animations.
I can't even explain what this is like, YOU HAVE TO SEE IT. How would someone even get into doing this? I've never heard of it but its great!

Go Jane Order

Instead of a post Christmas hall post, here is pictures of my recent Go Jane haul!! Shipping took forever with this, Christmas must have killed them
Stuffed inside my Go Jane bag was...


A sequin belt/cuberbund thing. I thought i could gal up an outfit or use it for a photoshoot. I got a medium becuase they were sold out of small and i ts a ltitle big :( Online resale time.
I also got a cute grey skirt.
A hot dress I have yet to try on.
Silver leggings I might have to take in a bit and comfy as hell cheetah print leggings.
and a cute butterfly top! I like this more then I thought I would.

This was my first Go Jane order
What websites do you order online from?

Some Holiday Spirit

Tay Zonday, the guy who did that chocolate rain song recorded his own version of "You're a mean one Mr.Grinch". This kid is seriously talented even though its so bizarre. He then oddly rants about what he think the song is about.

Shu Uemura Goodies

So I received my package of Shu Uemura goodies I got in return for working their event.
I got a lovely eye cream, a facecream, a tsumori chiasto mirror,brush set and a palate.

The mirror is quite cute but I don't think they sold it in stores. Maybe I can sell it on ebay! (My wallet is currently in the hospital)
Here's the uber cute brush set. Shu brushes are crazy high quality so they should be fun to use. I love eyeshadow brushes with lots of control.
And finally the Shu palette. My favourite thing about it is the outside of it. So cute. I like the purple-ish color next to the gold too. Oh how I want more Shu eyeshadow.

VO5 Hot Oil Treatment Review

If you look up reviews for VO5's famous hot oil treatments you will get a 50/50 tie on if this stuff is a miracle product or if its terrible. I read a few pages of reviews and it defiantly left me curious. I wondered if this could be a miracle product for my damaged, untameable curly and frizzy hair.

Another thing to consider with the reviews is their are so many different hot oil treatments by VO5 that end up just getting classified as the same product. They may be different. I choose the strengthing from the selection of the photos below. The package contains 3 hot oil treatments and I got them on sale for about $3.00 CDN. Even if it turned out to be crap I didn't feel like I was wasting my money. I should point out that they offer a single hot oil treatment for around $7.00. The packages however don't really provide that much information on the differences.

I followed the directions keeping the hot oil on for 2 minuets (even though it says only up to one) and shampooed. At this point I wasn't thrilled. My hair felt brittle and dry so I loaded on some deep conditioner. When I blow dried it I still noticed it still felt a little odd and brittle. I was almost convinced it was a crap product until my mom started telling me my hair really did look alot healthier. In a sense I think this works a bit like a hair constructor that "glues" your hair back together when its really damaged. I'm quite pleased! I used it again last night and although I haven't taken it out of the crazy looking bun on the top of my head I think it helped. After I shampooed this time my hair was left silky and soft which was a surprise I don't usually experience after shampooing! I wouldn't recommend this for thin hair because it would probably be to heavy. For devil manes like myself though I think this is an amazing product with trying with an open mind. If you hair is really damaged its deffintly a better price tag then buying the Nexxus Emergencee Constructor for $50.00. Although if your hair is REALLY bad I would buy the Nexxus stuff fast! P.S. I would use conditioner with hot oils to try and restore some moisture and get rid of the brittle feeling!

MY BLOG IS ALMOST READABLE AGAIN!

YESS!! If your eyes are reading this they are probably thanking you right now. My messy work in progress blog is looking a lot better. Thanks to my talented friend Sean Sherdian for making me a top banner.

I posted a picture from a photoshoot. It was at this amazing apartment downtown the photographer lived out. The back balcony/ roof area was amazing. It had all these different levels and crazy ghetto stairs. I thought I was going to fall off in my boots for sure. It would have been an amazing place to host a summer party. A sober one though as I'm sure that would be a drunken death disaster. In the middle of the shoot I grabbed a notebook and just started writing. I wish I lived their, I would be so much more inspired. The internet has really been killing me for inspiration. I've come to a point where I don't even let myself think. If I have even a free moment I'm quickly on my blackberry going on MLIA. How do I let myself get back into my thoughts?

Why I love Nars

If I had to pick one makeup brand to use for the rest of my life I would without a doubt choose Nars. Now I realize every makeup line has its strong points but I find Nars as a whole to be one of the strongest brands. Why might you ask? Besides the amazing pigment quality, Nars goes above and beyond with every single color. Every brand I can think of only has a limited number of stand out eyeshadows. Looking for colors in MAC when I want to try something new usually leaves me feeling hopeless and bored. With Nars I can look at any color and instantly fall in love. Even if you aren't a fan of a certain shade Nars will make you love something about it. I also have to mention how unique and fun the shades are. Thank you for making creativity chic. Besides the amazing shadows the blush is as good as you have heard. Honestly, I'm not really a fan of orgasm. Although I wear it and like it, I wish more light was shone on the rest of the shades. They seriously have a blush to make everyone look perfect. Just love. Although this post sounds like I work for them I just really think more people should get into them! They really do try hard to be the best they can. If you check out the multiples you'll notice they have a new formula for the newer ones just to improve on the already amazing product. They've also reformulated the foundations and mascaras.
I just wanted to say happy birthday nars on 15 years! Your only two years younger then me! Thank you for getting me through my breakups since I was 13. I only hope that you eventually send me products to review for my years of loyalty.

P.S. check out the book 15x15 that Nars released for the fifteenth anniversary. The chic book has pics of 15 celebs in Nars makeup with proceeds going to charity.

(Santa please bring me a Nars 15 pallate for xmas?)

My day as a Shu Uemura Harajuku girl in Holt Renfrew

Its pretty amazing what you can find on Craigslist.
I've managed to find several interesting things on that crazy website including getting myself in the Mtv commercial inserts (I'm the blonde texting), a disastrous hair extension experience, a kick ass producer and a boyfriend of over a year ( I met him as a band mate, I wouldn't touch the personals section with a 20 foot pole.) You really never know what you can find on there (proven by yousuckatcraigslist.com). My latest Craigslist venture happened to be quite awesome! I scored a random job dressing up as a Harajuku girl to help promote the Shu Uemura Lash Event.

I totally wish I had a picture of my outfit! I wore a cute Sweet Lolita outfit, it was the first time I ever actually dressed proper lolita. I was starting to think I would never get a chance to wear the dress but I did! Probably in the last place I would want to though. I like to keep my freak/crazy fashion side as far away from my I love expensive rich people clothes as possible. Mixing the two extremes made me feel a bit uncomfortable to say the least.
(Shu's pretty counter)
The event itself was really fun, they had the very talented and stylish principal makeup artist Taca Ozawa doing crazy makeup and hair on a model as well as the equally awesome and talented Rocco Commisso drawing people as manga characters. Honestly, I was shocked at how quickly he can draw amazing pictures. He has talent! The makeup artists were extremely busy giving makeovers while selling and applying lashes. I thought it was cool to see what working the only retail job I have ever wanted would be like. I must say, I still do want a job at Holts! Working for a great line like Shu Uemura would be great. I also really enjoyed getting more familiar with their products. They have CRAZY lashes! Even though I haven't looked into the makeup forever lashes too much I'm much more impressed by Shu's. The eyeshadows are also defiantly worth looking into. I was really in love with a matte blue color. I think with a line like Shu, you should ask the makeup artists for some looks and advice to really get the lines full potential. Although I wasn't paid in desperately needed money, I'm going to be receiving some Shu goodies in the mail. I can't wait!

So even though I didn't get any pictures in my crazy outfit, I stole this one from when I was on my way out from Rocco. I look like hell from 10 hours of work and two hours of sleep the night before but at least you can see some of the great pictures Rocco drew! I would also recommend checking Holt Renfrew's website to see the great events they always have going on. If your attending a cosmetics event I would recommend booking ahead of time. I'll post pictures of my makeup when I get it!

Another Photoshoot

My new friend Dani is an amazing photographer at Sheridan Collage. I think I kinda love that school. She wanted me to model for her reflective metals assignment. Here's the pic she used. I think I look kinda weird but I do like it. We took some crazyyy photos after but I haven't gotten any because she's been so busy with school. I.can't.wait.for.them!!

Warranty Elephant - Great free service for keeping track

How many times have you lost your warranties or completely forgotten about when they expire? I hate having pieces of paper that are important. They are just bound to go missing! I can't even keep track of my shoes (Seriously, I recently lost a seven inch heel in my room. I have no hope of keeping track of papers).

Being a teenage girl, my cameras and cell phones have habits of breaking all the time. I defiantly need to keep my warranties safe.

I recently came across Warranty Elephant, a free service that lets you store your warranty information online. The info is stored and listed by date of warranty expiration. You can store all the information you need on your product in your account. The websites so great you can even upload scans of your warranties to your account!

The service goes above and beyond by sending you reminders of three months, one month and a week before your warranty expires to make sure the item is in working condition.

I love innovative websites like this. If you know any other helpful sites like this post them in the comments!

This year the winners were actress Fukada Kyoko pictured above as well as Singer Tsuchiya Anna whos awesome and everyones favourite gal model Tsubasa Masukawa and some other people. I posted this becuase I thought Tsubasa (far left) looks AMAZING here! I hope she starts dressing like that more!

I Am Me Video Blog

And finally here is my edited version :) WATCH IT!

Reason why I need a kitten

best thing ever

So at I Am Me they took photos of you and printed them out for you to have. For some reason, someone stole all five copies of me and my friends photos. I found Marie talking to someone on my facebook wall and I totally laughed at this.

Sigh.

Photoshoot with Kerry

This week I have done a massive amount of photoshoots.
Okay I did three and had to cancel one but THEY ARE EXAUSTING! I'll be posting pictures and stories from them on here!

Here is from the first one I did! I shot with a photographer who is a friend of my friend Kerry. It was nice because Kerry was also their so we had a lot of fun. I took a few photos with Kerry too, I hope I actually get to see one of them. I posted this photo because I look different which is kinda cool. I never have my hair up but I kinda like it here! If you notice a difference in my hair its because I got bangs again! They used to be my trademark style through my pre-teen years but then I guess I just got lazy. Of course now everyone is calling me Lady Gaga. At least she rocks. P.S you can buy the dress I'm wearing which I made at www.barbiewantstobeme.etsy.com



The shoot was fun but really tiring. After it I had to make my way to Yorkdale as I had planned on going to the JYP auditions but I was kinda late. I got to Yorkdale and called my friend who had been in line for hours and decided I was way to tired to try and find wherever on earth it was. I ended up shopping for ten minuets and dying on a bench with Dave.

Speaking of Lady Gaga, I realize I totally look like her here but I still think its a cool photo!

Youtube account and I Am Me

Hello Lovers!
So I'm trying to make my youtube account a bit more active. I posted one of my songs and have a video blog I'll be posting later in the day. Please subscribe to it!


The video blog I did is on the Faze Supergirl I Am Me event. The thing was honestly a BLAST! I got the Vera Wang Princess perfume I've wanted for years now! It felt like Christmas! I also got to hangout with Imke and Dizzi, my two friends who live about an hour away. Even though it was probably only the second time we've actually hung out it felt like they were my best friends. Its hard to find people my age who go after their crazy ambitions, wear whatever it is they want and still manage to be just amazing people. Imke makes her own clothing and has her own store! Dizzi is great at photography and is always helping out Imke. For once I didn't feel out of the loop for having ambitions, something no one should have to feel.
