after pretty things

im testing the new foundations now. i was disappointed how MAC's pro longwear calls for a very careful application not to leave any "lines" from the brush or sponge. Lumene's much cheaper double stay mineral makeup beats MAC in this aspect. both leave a demi-matte look. after a few hours they still look the same. Lumene perhaps feeling a little more dry which means it might not work on my skin during winter.

ive pampered myself today with some skincare, and relaxed by listening to good music and reading teh internets (wired, lifehacker, facebook, HS...).
