Why I'm Upset

For one thing having a little sister (She's 14 almost 15) who takes your stuff is really annoying. I normally can find it in her room somewhere, but there are things I was never able to find after my mother has this urge to clear my room. Some how I lost items that were in my make up drawers.. .. like my Too Faced Shadow Insurance (NIB), Buckwheat eyeshadow (NIB), Mac's Holiday Pallets in Warm Eyes, Napoleon Perdis Loose Dust in Leaf just to name a few. I've found my Prada Perfume in her room before, and my mother had no idea. She claimed my sister hasn't been home . . yeah okay . . I come home after moving out, and I can't find my stuff again . . big surprise. That's not cheap stuff either! I gave my sister all the stuff I decided I didn't need, and she still steals my stuff. Makes me want to grab all her Abercrombie and Fitch clothes and sell them. . See if she likes her stuff taken. Sorry just had to vent. . I miss my stuff :(

Ugh I made a oops this morning.. .

So when I was doing my daily face routine I totally put Lush's Karma Karma on my face instead of their vanishing cream.. .. I hope I don't break out . . Oops!

I LOVE Lush!

Lush has this current promotion where 100% of their sales from the "Jungle" Soap (which is limited edition, and palm oil free) go to the Rainforest Foundation. So if you like their solid Jungle conditioner you'll absolutely love this soap, I know I do! It goes great with my green themed bathroom. They also have a limited edition soap wall with 9 of their best selling soaps in this "wall" like container all of which are palm oil free to support and protect the Rainforest, and the endangered orangutan's who existence is threatened by the Palm Oil Industry.

Uh Oh! + Collective Haul

Poor poor mmmeeeee I had surgery at 12pm today and well it kinda sucks. They had to tighten ligaments in my ankle due to injuries I sustained in high school not being taken care of properly. That and I kept injuring the same ankle and it never healed right. So lucky me got to have surgery for all that jazz. Ive been out of work for two whole week now, and I honestly just want to go back :( Before all this nonsense happened I bought both pallets from Hello Kitty, and Dame Edna (MAC of course :) ) along with various things from Bare Escentuals, and Sephora.
