Weekend Splurge & My Second Pressed Mineral Pigment Palette

So what did I decide to splurge on during my little weekend getaway? TWEEZERS! Haha.

Believe it or not I'm the type of person who NEEDS a good pair of tweezers because I have puny eyebrow hairs that are tiny and thin and it takes me FOREVER to pluck my brows because tweezers always seem to have the hardest time grasping onto my brow hairs. Hahaha. So, I figured it was about time to invest in some GOOD tweezers. :) Honestly, I'm glad that I did because these tweezers are a GOD SEND to gals with tiny, short, thin eye brow hairs... NO JOKE!

I ended up buying the Tweezerman Petite Tweezer Set in Pink from Sephora in Victoria Gardens. :) They had a regular silver set but I'm a sucker for pink. Haha. :P They were the same price so I figured what the hey. Ha. :P

Anywho the set comes with TWO pairs of tweezers, one angle head tweezer and one pointed head tweezer. I don't know why they're called "petite" because I honestly don't consider them petite. LOL. They seriously are the size of regular sized tweezers. LOL. *scratches head* The set costs me $25.00 which really isn't bad compared to their "full size" slanted tweezers which cost about the same. o_0 So you're telling me that I can choose between buying ONE regular size tweezer for the SAME PRICE as the "petite" tweezer set which includes TWO tweezers? Oh, and the tweezers aren't even "petite"? LOL. Okay. :)

Here's a close up of the two different tweezer heads.

I also thought that their guarantee was neat! Click on the image below to read the guarantee. :)

So all in all, do these tweezers work up to all of the hype it's given? HELLS YES! LOL. I was floored by how QUICK it took me to pluck my brows and trust me they were CLEEEAAANNNNN. LOVE THEM. I think tweezerman has stolen my heart away. Haha. I'll just use my old drugstore tweezers for applying falsies. ;) Hahaha. :) LOVE LOVE LOVE these tweezers.

On another beauty note, I started a new pressed mineral pigment palette. :) I made a few of my own colors, tried out one recipe from the TKB Trading Recipe Book, & pressed some pigments as is. :) Specific colors are noted accordingly below.

Pretty, huh? Too bad I didn't write down the RECIPES for ANY of the colors that I made! ARGH! And they seriously are really pretty. :( BOOO! I'm going to have to figure it out all over again when I want to refill them. :( Well... at least now I know. Haha. That's still pretty lame though. Ha.

Oh, and if you guys are wondering how my weekend getaway went, it was AWESOME. :) It was definitely needed! :P

I met Jo Koy & Edwin San Juan (they're filipino comedians) because Bri's friend Jen hooked us up since she promotes for Jo Koy. Jo Koy was the headliner that night at the Improv in Brea and we freakn' had dinner with him after the show... at ihop! How awesome is that?! Haha. :D Good stuff. :) He's hella funny btw. Haha. That's just a tiny bit of my weekend but trust, it was awesome. ;) Toodles. :P
