The site is in mid-migration now (manual migration of over 7,000 entries, so there's a lot to be done.) The entry stubs are created for older content, but for the most part, the actual content isn't there quite yet. I am working on it. Unfortunately I have no ETA. But feel free to link to any page!

This was my first day doing any makeup at all in four days, owing to the back-spasm that's really limited my mobility for a bit, so I wanted to do everything: eyes, face, lips, et cetera. (And later today, a manicure with China Glaze's IDK and possibly some Konad. Or maybe not.) I'm wearing one of the two pairs of earrings I bought myself with my birthday money (those are in the picture), but also still wearing the back brace (that is most emphatically not in the picture.) I'm happy with how this look came out! To Do List is a mauve-ish pink with a good deal of light-catching shimmer, and Misty Maiden is a bright shimmery silver, so both pulled in some light. Cosmos is a gorgeous blue with periwinkle hints, and Rainbow Minerals' Teal is a simple deep teal matte - everything came together well.
