EOTD - Peaches in Spring!

Before you guys start questioning my sanity for quoting spring in this melting heat..... Let me just clarify- its the most suitable name I instantly thought of for this simple look I LOVE ....esp in summers and off course I will do so in spring too :P

Now I am no expert with eye makeup... esp eyeshadows.... but I do like coloured eyeliners.....  a lot!
So when I got this gorgeous borjouis intense extrait eyeshadow no-3..... it was love at first sight....

Now when I combine it with another favourite - a Spring green eyeliner.... and Viola..... bright eyes in no time. Add a coat of mascara and you are set for the day!

This Lip bag from MAC is giving me Sultry Delights !

Mac Sultry Delights Lip Bag

Now how can I be a makeup addict and not have Mac in my collection!!! I have been there..seen it...tried it but  could not make myself spend 990/ for a lippie- Hell my sis has already got plenty of stuff from there (AND I initiated her into the world of makeup). So I thought that I should indulge myself a little too - especially when I saw this irresistible Lip bag which is good value for money!
Plus they are the shades I was sure I would like! Also I get this cutie-pie bag too!

I was on a self-enforced hiatus from buying lippies- but I broke it for THIS!

And I don't regret it one bit! :D

I think 1 more pink lipstick in my already large collection wouldn't hurt!  (and my depleting bank balance can just hang by a thread!!)

I am too happy looking at it to care!:)
