Christmas Wishlist!

Hey Everyone!
As you can tell from the title, I'll be sharing what I want for Christmas this year. I have a few specific things I like to get, but I also tell my mom to surprise me! I have a Christmas Wishlist on my other blog for books. In general, I ask for beauty products and clothes. I will not receive all of these things, and my mom (she does the shopping) may change out one thing with a different beauty product or something. Anyways, here's the list:

 

 

~Rebecca Minkoff Mini MAC

~iPhone 4S White

~LUSH: Mrs. Frosty Gift Set

~The Hunger Games Collector's Edition

~The Hunger Games Nail Polish

~Skylark by Elle and Blair Palette

~Fresh: Sugar Perfection Duo

~Fresh: Soy Face Cleanser (and/or)

~Fresh: Skin-Savers Kit

~PB Teen Wall Plank (Laugh)

 

 

I really want a Rebecca Minkoff Mini MAC because I have a really large tote, and then a few small bags. Some are from Vera Bradley, and I have one wristlet from Coach. I figure that if I do get this, I will use it so much and keep it for as long as it live, which may be as long as I live, haha.

I also want a new phone, specifically the iPhone. My dad has one, my brother has 2 iTouches (one of them the screen is missing, so even if he did give it to me, I wouldn't do much with it, and he still uses it), and my mom has an iPad. I have an iPod nano, lol. I got it in fourth grade and it has a bunch of other songs on it and stuff, so I never really use it. You may see now why I want an iPhone. My phone is also due for an upgrade this month. :)

For the LUSH goodies, I haven't tried LUSH out and I really want to! Especially the bath bombs!

The Hunger Games=<333333333333 times 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000.... (get the point?) plus Nail Polish= <3 and when you put them together <3333!

I feel as though I don't have to explain my obsession (with THG) and the Fresh Sugar Lip Balms and products. So yeah.

As some of you know, I am also obsessed with YouTube, and of course, I watch Elle and Blair! I have been watching them for a long time (ish) and wanted to support them in a way other than watching all their videos!

For the PB Teen thing, I have been wanting this for what feels like forever, and so I just decided to ask for it for Christmas!

Let me know what your asking for for your holiday in the comments!

My Top 5 Favorite Makeup Products and Books

Hey Everyone!
I really wanted to a book post today, but I have been doing those more than usual lately, so I decided to combine it with a beauty post too. Today I will be sharing you my 5 favorite makeup products and my 5 favorite books!

Makeup:
~Urban Decay Naked2 Palette
    This palette has 12 eye shadows, and you can create so many looks with it. Here's my review.

~Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Sin
    I also have a review on this eyeshadow which you can check out here. (Which by the way, I hit pan on!)

~Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion
    Ok, sorry for all the Urban Decay, but this is honest. Anyways, this eye primer really keeps your eyeshadow on all day long and I don't know what I would do without it!

~Revlon Lip Butters
    These are amazing. They are very well pigmented and moisturizing too.

~MAC Sheertone Blush in Pinch O' Peach
    First of all, the color of this blush is really pretty. It's your everyday average hot pink (but it's not that bright, if you keep reading you'll know why) with some peachy undertones. It's also matte. But the thing I love most about this blush is that it's a Sheertone Blush. You can build up the color so easily and well that you can go from looking like you have a little to no blush on and then to your cheeks are the main focus.... if that makes sense. :)

Books:
~The Hunger Games trilogy, Suzanne Collins
    I'm not going to say much because I can make this post a whole lot longer, but I absolutely love this trilogy. Not because everyone loves it or any of that stuff but because of everything else, the characters, the plot, the idea, the writing, the story, the thoughts, etc. Quick story: I read this trilogy almost a year ago, I never liked reading much in 5th-the beginning of 7th grade, and then I read this and became an some-what avid reader. I realized books can be good! Like really, really, really, really, really- sorry. But The Hunger Games trilogy is AMAZING so if you haven't read it yet, clear your schedule for a few days and go to the bookstore. Now. :)

~The Divergent (yet to be) trilogy, Veronica Roth
    The Divergent trilogy has 2/3 books out now and I am dying, DYING to read the 3rd one. But I have to wait a whole year!! Anyways, it's just amazing, depending on my mood I like it a little more then THG, most of the time there ties, but after watching THG 7 times on DVD, I like THG a little bit more. But they will soon be ties again. (As in I will like them the same.) I read Divergent the very beginning of March (I think March 1st actually) and got Insurgent (book 2) the day it came out, and I am planning to do the same with the 3rd one. :)

~Legend Trilogy, Marie Lu.
    Long story, short, I love this book and I can't wait for the next two! I have a review here.

~Delirium trilogy, Lauren Oliver
    The idea behind the books is so smart, (that love is a disease) and so intriguing, that I don't know it's just amazing. And the writing, oh the writing, is so beautiful! I personally like Pandemonium (Book 2) a lot more than Delirium, however I can not wait, literally can't wait, even more than all the other books, for the 3rd one, Requiem, to come out. I entered a contest to win it, but sadly I didn't win. But there will be more opportunities and if not, I will have to wait a couple months for it to come out!

~Ok so for my 5th favorite book-it's a tie, or should I say ties.

1. Hush, Hush series (book review here.), Becca Fitzpatrick
2. The Fault in our Stars, John Green
3. Unwind Trilogy, Neal Shusterman
4. The Wolves of Mercy Falls Trilogy (Shiver, Linger, Forever)

Honestly, I love all the books I have on my bookshelf (I will be doing a bookshelf tour soon) but these are my top! Check out my Goodreads to see my favorite books, books I'm reading/read and more!

THG: Casting Updates, and News for Mockingjay Movie

Hey Everyone!
Since I last did a THG post, a bunch of things have changed. A couple characters have been cast, such as Johanna Mason. (One of my favorites! If you read Divergent/Insurgent, she reminds me of Lynn!) Also, Mockingjay has a release date! I heard about this a little while ago, but I thought it would be too short for a post. Anyways, here's a list of the new cast and Mockingjay movie dates. Also, Mockingjay is going to be filmed back to back!
Mockingjay Part 1: November 21, 2014
Mockingjay Part 2: November 20, 2015
Johanna Mason: Jena Malone
Mags: Lynn Cohen
Gloss: Alan Ritchman

There are also rumors for Finnick-Sam Clafin, and also for Romulus Thread (the new peacekeeper)-Patrick St Esprit.

That's all I know for now! -Kait

"The Hunger Games": Liam Hemsworth Engaged?!

Hey Everyone!
I know I haven't done a THG post in FOREVER but (no offense) there's nothing really exciting happening right now. Until I heard about this. Liam Hemsworth, who plays Gale, is engaged to Miley Cyrus after 3 years of dating! I have been wanting to do a THG post, but I had no clue of what to do it on. Voila! (That's how you spell it right? It reminds me of the word Viola-which I have been playing since 5th grade.) Anywhoo, I just wanted to share that news! Have a great day!

My THG Nails

Hey Everyone!
Today is a THG post and a beauty post!! This is how I painted my nails for the movie! (I have a limited amount of nail polish, so I did the best I could!) I used Sephora by OPI for all nails and in the Glee set!

 Here is a close up. On the pinkie finger I wanted to represent the Capitol.  I did a hot purple-pink raspberry color called "Miss Bossy Pants" with a layer of multi-colored (mostly sliver) sparkles called "Celibacy Club". On my ring finger I used a coral with pink sparkles called "Express Yourself to Yourself". This color reminded me of the dress Katniss wore during her interview. On my thumb, I used a navy with blue sparkles, just for a background, called "Sue vs. Shue". I wrote (well, my friend wrote-using her nail art pen that I don't know where she got from-sorry!) KE + PM. On my other thumb, my friend wrote 12 for District 12!

On my middle finger, I painted it a matte light blue called "Slushied" and then used "Sue vs. Shue" for the other half and then dotted "Celibacy Club". I did this to represent the days and nights spent in the arena. My pointer finger, I used "Slushied" again. But this time I took "Gleek Out", which is an olive-lime sparkly green color, and made a cloud shape for trees!

I hope you guys enjoyed! :) -Kait

Katniss Goes to Hogwarts

Hey Everyone!
So sorry about having another Hunger Games post, but there is only 2 days left, and I can not wait!!
I was exploring today :) and found an amazing-ly fun website/game. If you've read/seen the Harry Potter series, and liked them, and also read THG trilogy, you will love this game! I am on Katniss' 3rd year at Hogwarts, so I am unsure how many years you go through. But so far, it's been so fun! Pretty much, Katniss gets a letter to Hogwarts and she accepts it. The rest of the game is trying to help Harry, Ron, Hermione, and others throughout the years. I absolutely love this game! One of my favortie parts was when Ginny said that rumors have been going around that Katniss liked Fred. But then it says something like this, "He's not a baker or a painter. He adds too much sugar in his tea, and doesn't double lace his shoe laces. (Sorry for the spelling.) Remind you of someone?
Well, what are you waiting for? Play the Game Here! May the wands be ever in your favor!

Let me know what you think of it!
