Finding Your Skin Undertones

I was in the mirror today and I noticed something different. I noticed w/ the weather here in Texas going from cold, hot and rainy to another other damn weather pattern, my skin color has changed. I noticed that my skin was lookin kinda yellow-y and basically, no way sexy....lol.

So I took a ride up to my local MAC and let them know of my issue. My MA suggested we try a NW45 and I'd be damn, it went on and I saw NOTHING! It was sooooo pretty to me! So I came to a conclusion that in the fall/winter months I'll use my NC50 and spring/summer I'll switch back to NW45. In case you're wondering I bought the mineralized satin finish foundation. I chose that one b/c since my skin is oily as hell in the summertime thanks to good olesweat...lol....I figure that the less foundation on me is the better. Besides, there's no point of using a full coverage foundation in Texas in the summertime b/c by 12 noon you swear it all off.....lol.

Hey fellow addicts!! I'm still alive, just gettin my butt handed to me in school...lol. No worries so far though, I'm riding high w/ a 3.92 GPA! *squeals and giggles*

Today's FOTD comes from these earrings I picked up yesterday. I couldn't pass them up in the store, they were too cute. I love the threaded earrings but I really don't wanna pay over $10 for them. So far, I'm finding the ones I like at pretty decent prices. This particular pair I found at Charlotte Russe. They had 2 for $8 deal so I went ahead and picked those up and some other pairs of theraded earrings.
