My Kitty Tattoo

Since I got my first tattoo back in October or November I've been dying to go get another one. They truly are as people say, very addicting. About two weeks ago I decided I wanted a new tat and soon. I had a few ideas of what I wanted next but still wasn't too sure. I knew I always wanted a cat tattoo and thought about getting the Chinese lucky cat but I didn't want tons of color and I wanted something more simple. So I looked up cat tattoos and came upon one that looked identical to my cat, Piggy.Well the sketch doesn't look completely identical to Piggy but if Piggy was ever thrown into an alternate universe and became a cartoon this is what he would look like. I was instantly in love with the sketch. So now I was sold on what tattoo I wanted but now I needed a tattoo shop that could do it accurately. I looked around at some tattoo shops and none of the artists impressed me or the shop was just too overpriced. Luckily I remembered an old buddy of mine was an artist at a really well known shop with really high ratings and rave reviews on yelp. He was a great artist when were younger so I knew he was the right person. It hurt like crazy but it came out better then I could have ever imagined. I'm so happy with it. Take a look :)

So now it's Friday and I got the tattoo on Monday. It's healing up nicely and to my surprise it's not even itching. I keep forgetting it's even there. For my last tattoo the healing process was definitely the worst part of the whole thing. My only problem is that since it's healing I can't really shave my leg in that area and now my kitty is actually started to grow hair and whiskers (no bueno).

Check out the tattoo shop where I got it at Metamorph Studios

Also check out my bad ass friend who tattooed me "J" if you live in Chicago and are looking for a fantastic artist shoot him an email and set up an appointment with him (email address found on his link)

Influenster Vox Box: Something Blue

Since 2011 I've had the great joy of being apart of The Influenster community. I heard about the site from a youtuber. Basically what Influenster is it's a site that sends out sometimes monthly boxes called a vox box filled with free products to try out from different companies and in return you fill out a few surveys and give your honest opinion about the products. Besides giving back your feedback the only catch is you have to qualify for the box of free goodies they send out. Sometimes you qualify sometimes you don't. Either way it's a great company and I have had so much fun trying out all the cool new products I got sent. Here is what I got for the bridal Something Blue Vox Box. Enjoy :)

The Balm's Nude'tude Palette

The Balm's Nude'tude palette came out a while back when tons of makeup companies were dishing out neutral palettes like hot cakes. I own the Naked Palette by Urban Decay, so I never found the need to jump on the Nude'tude band wagon. After watching numerous youtube tutorials of the Nude'tude palette I decided to buy it. Plus a girl can never have enough neutrals. It offers something a little different than the Naked palette which is what I really like and it's freakin adorable. So if your not completely sold on the Naked palette give this one a try and it's considerably less than the Naked palette on Amazon.

YOUR PRETTY FACE IS GOING TO HELL!!!!

 


Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell is a new TV serious on Adult Swim. The story takes place in hell (obviously) and is about Gary. Gary is a demon that isn't the best at being a demon. He's not as evil as the other demons and has trouble collecting almost any souls. He comes up with grand schemes to try and get people to switch over to the dark side but always fails miserably at it. The acting is fantastic and the show never fails to make me crack up. Watch a sneak peek of the show here and tune in every Thursday night at midnight on Adult Swim to catch all the latest episodes.

Sleek Makeup- Acid Palette

For the longest time I've been dying to get my little hands on this palette from Sleek every since I saw a youtube tutorial by xsparkage. Once I saw the tutorial I ran to sleekmakeup.com to try to purchase it but because they are a UK based company this particular palette wasn't FDA approved and wasn't allowed to be shipped to the US. Kinda makes me wonder what the hell is in the eyeshadow that needed to be FDA approved? Anyways I guess it got approved so I snagged one.







The colors are beautiful but as you can see the neon colors don't really swatch very well. They go on well when you pack and pat them on. I can't wait till summer to really start rocking and wearing the neon colors out.  Tiff
