1. Urban Decay Naked palette. I haven't been using any other eyeshadows since I got this palette. Although it's mostly neutrals, it's miles away from boring and super versatile. My favorite combination right now is Sin + Sidecar (yeah, the glittery one. I like glitter!) + Virgin for highlighting.
2. Safran Troublant by L'Artisan Parfumeurs. A most challenging perfume.
3. Moleskine, this time a storyboard notebook. I'm so terrible at drawing that I'd probably die of shame if I had to show the content of this notebook to someone. Good thing I enjoy drawing storyboards despite my artistic inertia. (:
4. Bright lipstick. Whenever I'm buying lipstick, I walk into the store thinking I want to get a pretty pale pink or neutral orange shade. The only time I actually did end up buying a neutral lipstick was last August in Salzburg and even that was only because the MAC salesgirl had suggested it. Bright > all!
5. Jewelry for those who don't wear jewelry. I understand that jewelry is supposed to enhance your outfits and make them more personal, but I often have trouble wearing it if it's not really discreet - it gets in the way. My tried and true pieces can be counted on the fingers of one hand. Staring into jewelry shop windows still remains one of my most enjoyable pastimes though ...

I desperately need a new highlighter, so I will have to give this Urban Decay Virgin a shot. Actually running low on lipstick too so this post comes at a good time!
I think Virgin isn't their permanent shade and you can only find it in this palette. :(
I love gifs! Especially when they feature a moleskin and Urban Decay. I just bought Revlon's black cherry lipstick. I am not big on makeup but I am fascinated with the colors.
Glad you're a fan of the gif :D I actually wanted it to be a short film (and even shot it with my HD cam), but then I figured a gif would work better.
I've googled your lipstick and may I just say that color is DIVINE. I might actually have to get it myself.
I'm curious, what does that perfume smell like? I really like the bottle and it has an intriguing name. Also, I completely agree with you about understated jewelery, I pretty much only wear simple chain necklaces, stud earrings and small rings and bracelets. I think the main reason that I like simple jewelery the best is because I can wear the same thing everyday (and not because I'm lazy haha) so my jewelery becomes a signature.
It smells like saffron, which is very unusual for perfumes. I wrote it's challenging because one day I like it, the other I don't. L'Artisan Parfumeurs has many more lovely perfumes though and the bottle design is the same. Highly recommended! ;)
Love the animation :) stopmotion or something else?
I actually shot a video because I wanted to put together a short film, but then I realized it would work better as a gif. I took screencaps from video clips and made the gif in Photoshop :)
