Note to self: peach lip concealers wash me out terribly - straight brown, beige or orange shades flatter me much better than beige-pink - too much pink just isn't good.
Still, the concealers are good for softening my too-orange and too-pink lipsticks.
I'm tempted to go through all of my cosmetics and divide them into 2 piles:
1) can't live without
2) everything else
And then rotate the category 2 stuff weekly at work.
It can make for surprisingly fun combinations.

New Chikuhodo shop in Ginza, Tokyo
Wow, Chikuhodo has opened up a counter in the Kumanofude Select Shop (熊野筆セレクトショップ) located on the 2nd floor of the Hiroshima Antenna shop in Ginza!
The Japanese informational page
It looks gorgeous; I should drop by and gaze at the lovely brushes.

whew, it's been busy!
In frivolous news, my long-lost (8 years or so) order of Nubar polishes was found! I now have a bounty of pale nail polish colors - so many that I need to give a lot away, as they overlap unecessarily.
I also bought a bright coral mini nail polish from Ettusais's yearly summer LE collection of mini polishes. The formula is average, but it's a great way to get polishes to satisfy random polish cravings at ridiculously inexpensive prices (252 yen incl. tax).
I need to edit my polish collection again, as it's overflowing my little nail polish makeup tote.
In general, I need to edit my wardrobe too, and clear out the various documents cluttering up my place. I should invite friends to come over and help me be disciplined.
Time for a belated spring cleaning. I'll get started tonight.

macaron sweets at Family Mart
2 for 200 yen; vanilla and strawberry flavors. I scarfed them down so I haven't a picture to share with you, but I can tell you that they were pretty good! Just the chewy, crunchy texture that I like.

busy busy
Wow, time is just flying by! I forgot my phone today. It's kind of free-ing, but a little worrisome.
Hope everyone is doing well. My efforts to improve my posture are only half successful.

makeup otaku
Via rougedeluxe.blogspot.com, I came across naotokimu's post on the Jill Stuart Patisserie Collection.
His post is cute and hilarious! A true makeup otaku.
It makes me wanna buy the upcoming fig tart mix blush compact, although the berry tiramisu looks cute too :P
