Honeybee Spa Haul

Yesterday I received a package that I ordered from Honeybee Spa. I've been ordering from Beth (the owner) for YEARS. Like 5 or 6 years I think, maybe more. She is super friendly to deal with, her products are wonderful and she ships super fast. And the price is great as well. This is what I got:
 

I got the dry oil spray at $6.99 each for a 4 oz. bottle (which is an awesome deal compared to many other online sellers who sell these in smaller 2 oz. bottles for the same effin price), in Vanilla Musk, Vanilla, Fudge Brownie and Frosted Cupcake. They all smell so yummy and I want to drink them...but I know they won't taste very good. This is my all time FAV moisturizer. I guess that's why I've been buying these from her for years it seems. 
So I just wanted to share this store with you since I love it so much. :-)

Steampunk Club theme pics from last night!

So I must warn ya, there are a lot of pics. :-) Last night we went dancing again and I came up with Steampunk for the theme. Most of us dressed up in some sort of way. It was a lot of fun! I danced more than I have in a long time, which was really needed. I don't have any good pics of my makeup, and I'm wearing netting over my eyes so it might not be too visible anyway. However, if ya wanna know, I'm wearing Morgana Minerals Vegan lipstick in Sugar Plum Rum, eyeshadow in Jolly roger, Piece of 8 and Snowball's chance AND Mineral foundation in Blue. :-)
 
Jas and his gasmask he modified to look Steampunky, and the tophat he made.

Jas and me and my bullet proof bra I made! Not really bullet proof, I made it out of washers and star washers tho...looks like boobie armor!

So you can see it was a fun night! At one point, the clock hands on Jason's hat, got caught in the netting on my hat and we were stuck together! Was so funny! We were just standing there laughing, trying to get unstuck with our faces an inch away from each other. He had to rip the clock hands off of his hat (you can see they are missing in the last pic) and then get them out of my netting. Was terrible but gave us a good laugh. :-)

What did you do last night?

Busy and getting behind...

Just wanted to do a quick post. I've been really busy the past couple days and haven't been able to comment on many of your wonderful posts! I will soon though.. Just wanted everyone to know that I'm not ignoring your blogs. :-) Also, I don't have time to do a look today. Life be crazy sometimes. Weee!

Hope you all are having a wonderful weekend!

Friday night Military Fashion Show theme

So we went dancing at the club last night. We came up with a military theme for everyone to participate and dress up. I did very minimal makeup because I wore my red wig and it always steals all the attention so no crazy makeup needed. I wasn't going to post any pictures because I didn't get any with my camera...and Jason's camera is evil. Seriously evil. It puts lines, spots and discolourations on your skin that really aren't there...it's annoying and unfair! Makes me look like a scary old lady and hate it. But there are some decent pics we got after Jason changed some settings on the camera...still it was doing some strange things to my eyebrows.
So yes, I'm wearing a red wig.  I filled in my eyebrows with red eyeshadow to match and make it look normal. BUT the camera made odd black patches on my eyebrows only in some of the pictures. WTF? I have never seen anything like this. I wasn't going to post pictures, but I decided I would anyway cuz they are silly.

Sort of normal...me and Jas


So what's up with the black patches that show up on my 'brows here???


Barry (some friends in background)


Barry and me


See this is what the camera did to me! Just kidding, it's Nicole making a scary face.


Nicole, Me and Barry (look at them neck wrinkles!)

 
And us 3 again


Dimitri staring me down...so my reaction is cringing my head back in fear, jokingly of course


Who are these scary people...


Guy and my outfit from the back (is Guy trying to grab my booty?)


Holy crap! I'm smiling...someone must have slipped something into my water!


Jennifer and moi


Jas, Jeff and Steve (glad I'm not the only one making stupid faces all the time, Steve did this a lot! And DJ Peter in the back looks angry)


Jeff, Samantha and Steve

There are more pictures but I didn't think anyone cares about seeing 80 pictures of people you don't know, acting like clowns. We had fun though. We danced a lot and hung out with good friends. Was an awesome night.

What did you do last night? Anything fun or interesting?
