#using pre-made palettes is eh anyway

[copheemoth]

keep in mind that some of the palettes are duplicates or very close to palettes that are already hosted on lospec, and were rejected for that reason. some other pallettes like spaff-8 are literally already hosted on lospec, which makes them not rejected

like, i literally only renamed my antique fish palette to poisson 23 and the palette with the old name is still up on the website as "rejected" despite the fact that i asked a mod to remove it ages ago and that there's 0 other changes (i have other palettes on rejected palettes and i have 0 problem with them)

so before some of yall go out and proclaim the website as some kind of treasure trove of unlimited human potential and rejecting the authoritarian art overlords or whatever. take a step back and realize that both lospec and rejected palettes have flaws.

@meowstic-seer-of-the-future:

Are you a pixel artist looking for a unique challenge? This site collects palettes that were submitted to Lospec and received negative reactions from their members. The rejections range from being perceived as useless for art (pixelart), disorganized, or some other reason. Well, there’s a whole gallery of art made with these palettes, and even a Bounty Hunter applet that picks a random palette nobody has used before, hopefully inspiring you.

Far be it to not take advantage of Oona’s pre-wedding events to not make it about me. OK?

Remember.  It’s all about MOI!!!!

Anyway, last weekend I flew to Cincinnati for Oona’s Bridal Shower.  You saw a sneak peak at my last blog post but I’m gonna elaborate more on the weekend.

And boy was this a fantastic Bridal Brunch!!

As the Mother-of-the-Bride naturally.

Number 4 is the only one Oona has stressed.  I did that at her shower when we all introduced ourselves.  My sense of humor got the best of me as I introduced myself as “…..as Oona exited my Origin of the World…”  immediately, I was pulled aside and warned in a kind way to NOT say anything like that at the wedding.  (shhhh–don’t tell but I don’t follow rules!)

I took Friday off from work because I wanted a true three-day weekend.  That’s the thing about working in a low-level clerical position—you need permission to get a day off.  In my other places of employment, it was much easier to finagle time off as a freebie—trust me.   I also worked my schedule out to accommodate leaving early on Thursday afternoon so I could fly from Philly to Cincy and enjoy a few extra hours of fun time.

I also took Friday casual to Thursday!  I travel in comfort, but not like a slob! J. Crew and Gabor wigs assisted me!  Mother-of-the Bride travel attire!

It’s not how it started out though.

For some reason, either I hit horrific weather or I have a displeasure of a delayed flight whenever I travel.  I kid you not.  And about 45 minutes before we were to board the plane, an announcement was made that the flight to Cincinnati would be delayed.

Welcome to my jet-sit world.  I spend more time waiting than flying!  I have to say though, that Delta made every effort and boarded us very quickly when the plane arrived!

Besides having an inner hissy-fit, I dealt with this issue by stress eating not one pretzel, but an additional bucket of pretzel nuggets.  Fresh and hot off the press.  The carbs were murder on my gut but felt so good going down.  I also ate a giant bag of peanut M & M’s.  And read trashy magazines.

And an added surprise was that these nuggets of carbs were also drenched in greasy melted butter.  I wonder why the scale isn’t giving me nicer numbers!!

The plane finally arrived and this Mother-of-the-Bride landed after ten in the evening to rain!  I was two for two.  A delay and rain.  It was shocking that a snow storm hadn’t hit!

Cincinnati here I come…

To rain and a delayed flight….

Now…upon departing the flight, one would think I ran to the airport exit to see Oona and Sam.  No.  CVG is a GREAT airport.  It’s so clean and spacious so I couldn’t resist dawdling (now we know where my son, Roman, acquired the gift of dawdle…).  I came across a cosmetics vending machine!  But I didn’t buy anything!

Why couldn’t I find this at Philly airport during the delay?

Then I came across my favorite part of the airport!  Them bones!

Some stop to smell the roses.  I stop to take photos at airports of skeletal treasure!

But it was great to be back at Oona and Sam’s and playing around with my grand puppy, Gracie.

My boo, Gracie.  OMG. She’s so well-behaved..

Oona and Sam are such great doggie parents…I KNOW they will be fantastic human parents!

Friday brought sun and clouds and brisk weather but it didn’t matter.  There’s something comforting in knowing that your daughter and her future husband can brew a great cuppa coffee.  They make it strong—just the way I love it.  And we sat around gabbing before getting ready and heading out to run errands.

The Mr. Coffee is far better than the grandpa Mr. Coffee we have at home.

Even little Gracie was beggin’ for some!

Ahhhhhhhhh…cawfee!!!

Oona had a nail appointment, and since my nails were looking fine, I passed but kept her company while we discussed family and the wedding preparations.

This freakin’ nail salon!  It went on for days!  I was jealous–but then Oona told me the price of a mani-pedi and I was glad to be living in the Northeast where nail salons are plentiful….and far less expensive!

Next stop was Marshalls –Oona picked some workout clothing (I didn’t –I’m lazy).  And I headed for the cosmetics.  Glory be to Gawd—I found two great eyeshadow palettes!

#gallery-0-5 { margin: auto; } #gallery-0-5 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 100%; } #gallery-0-5 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-0-5 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */

More on these palettes for my next blog post but boy….at $7.99 each, these palettes were a steal!

We did some food shopping—Sam’s birthday was Friday and his family was coming over for dinner.  Oona looked pensive as she realized time was of the essence—she had to head back to the airport to pick up her best friend and maid-of-honor, Lauren.

Did I say food shopping? I sent this pic to Bonaparte to validate that Pennsylvania is the worst state in the USA because of the State-run, Mob-type Liquor stores!  You can by this at Trader Joes in Cincy!

And that’s where mom comes in—I assured her I could take care of the cake and she could head to the airport for alone time with her bestie!

BTW, this cake is gluten-free, chemical and preservative-free, sugar free, and lower-fat!  Oona added Sam’s favorite candy–Reeses Pieces which are NOT lower fat nor sugar free!  But it was a tasty Birthday cake!

Friday evening, Sam’s family came over for a birthday celebration. Being with Sam’s family is like being with……………. family!!  We all had a great time and I was introduced to a spectacular aperitif/cocktail:  The Aperol Spritz!  This concoction of Aperol, Prosecco, and Seltzer with a slice of orange is the most refreshing drink I’ve ever downed!

You read it first.  Moving forward, the Aperol Spritz will now be called “Mother-of-the-Bride”.   There will be an open bar at the wedding but I may smuggle my private makings!  There’s only 148 calories in one of these!

I drank a lot of them during the weekend.  In fact, as I write this now, I informed the Frenchman that I’ll be stopping at the store for Aperol, Prosecco and seltzer!  He is a bit upset that I am forgoing the beloved Kir Royal but the Aperol Spritz has less calories and with the wedding countdown, every calorie counts!

Saturday was a full day!

Let me tell you something.  Oona and Lauren spent a long time getting their hair perfectly coifed.  Lauren is great with styling and she styled Oona’s hair in perfect beach waves.

I plopped my Jamison wig on—and had extra time to loll around in bed! Oh, the beauty of wigs!

Jamison and Lilly Pulitzer.  You can’t go wrong!

The shower/bruncheon was at LouVino, a Southern-inspired restaurant and wine bar downtown Cincinnati.  What a great place!  The celebration was downstairs in a private room and Oona’s friends, coworkers, future sisters-in-law, mother-in-law and relatives were in attendance.

The upstairs wine bar at LouVino’s. I’m recommending this place to out-of-town guests for Oona’s wedding!

The downstairs room where the brunch was held…

Thanks to Sam’s sisters, the table settings were beautiful..

  Mimosas kept us refreshed and hydrated!

Oh yeah, and water (in the background) also kept us hydrated.  The food was so great that I never took a pic–I was too busy shoveling the Warm Brussels Salad into my mouth!

We played girlie games.  I won Scattergories.  But the best game was where Oona had to guess answers to questions that Sam answered in advance.  For ever wrong answer, a wad of bubble gum was placed in Oona’s mouth!  It was a riot!

It was only natural that I took myself out of the “Guess the Age” game.  I’m no cheater!

Miss Oona getting ready for more bubble gum!  She actually did a great job.  Out of 30 questions, she got 2/3’s correct!

The prize for the Scattergories win..a cute mug and a Starbucks card!!!!!!!!!!! 

Some of the gifts.  Crate & Barrel is very popular–eh???

Happy little wine glasses…

Happy little Oona!

The baking girl was thrilled to receive mixing bowls.  Did I mention I gifted her with a Stainless Kitchen Aid Mixer…just like mine?  I swear the baking is genetic!

This.  This was on Oona’s wish list and she was so happy to receive this!  (Hmmmm maybe she’ll give me her Mr. Coffee machine…)

BFF’s.  They’ve been friends since middle-school.  Two beauties!

This photo of us was taken after I was crying…

..and this is why.  Lauren, Oona’s BFF and Maid of Honor, gifted Sam’s mom and me with embroidered hankies.  Both moms were crying because it was just a touching and generous gift!   I’m crying again!

I was very happy to be in attendance.  Oona didn’t want a shower in Philly simply because she felt that asking my side of the family and her Northeast friends, was asking them to spend too much money—what with the travel to Ohio and the hotel, she wanted to keep expenses down for everyone.  You know—I was very proud of her decision.  I think I raised a very conscientious young woman!

  And the fact Sam’s family has welcomed Oona really made me feel warm and fuzzy inside!

May I present the future Mrs. Butts.  Coming from a very competitive family, it pleases me to have my daughter’s future last name be greatness such as this.  When/if they have children and their children are in competitive activities, they can hashtag:  #MyButtsgonnakickyours  or… #Buttsbekickin’

Some after-brunch fun.  Isn’t that dress adorable?  It’s a Lilly Pulitzer..and those shoes!  The daughter has great taste..and she’s gorgeous!

By the time we got back to the house, the rain came and it was time to head to Sam’s mom’s home for a casual, laid back and fun dinner!

And more Aperol Spritzes!

The recipe?  Three parts Prosecco, Two parts Aperol, One part (a splash) Seltzer and an orange slice to make it nice!

Sunday morning brought forth a bit of a hangover and the flight back to Philly.  Isn’t it funny how when you wish for a delay, the flight is on time?

Gracie was sad to see me go.  I was sad to see me go!

  Minimal dawdling on the return.  There was no delay.  WAIT!  Does that say Air France?  Yeah…but it’s the plane back to Philly…

And despite the timeliness of the flight home, I did manage to get this sweatshirt as a reminder of a great weekend!

I arrived back home Sunday afternoon.  When Bonaparte picked me up, I’m not too sure he was happy to see me because he kept mentioning how tired I looked.  He was right. I had a bad hangover    FOODover, because of all the food I ate.

Yeah. I pretty-much crashed when I arrived home.  Funny how I still think I’m in my twenties sometimes!

Do you ever get sad when you leave someplace and someone?  I was incredibly sad to leave but after I arrived home and unpacked and got to telling the Frenchman about the weekend, the sadness lifted and I felt really happy.  Happy that I was able to enjoy the weekend with my daughter and her future family! And happy to be back sitting next to my husband on the sofa!

And she’s the reason the weekend was a stellar one!  My baby is getting married!

More Mother-of-the-Bride Fun! Far be it to not take advantage of Oona’s pre-wedding events to not make it about me.

[lordvonthunderporkvi]

here we go again

(hey at least it’s only 12 pages this time)

I -clap- AM -clap- NOT -clap- READY -clap- FOR -clap- THIS

It really can’t download fast enough can it

EPISODE 5: GO

WHOA ROMEO IS NARRATING

Romeo could you stop being the salt master for one FREAKING MINUTE PLEASE

“Jesse is a perfect example of what we call a ‘bad friend’” no I’m a great friend you on the other hand killed one of your friends and imprisoned the other who’s the bad friend now

Alright buddy do you WANT me to throw you in a dumpster because that’s what you seem to be asking for

See Romeo your problem is that you’re too attached to Jesse and company it’s to the point of being creepy and destructive this is why they don’t “appreciate” your “gifts”

Also because your gifts include a stupid cursed gauntlet that I can’t take off but you know whatever

You will never be Jesse

“The better Jesse” keep telling yourself that Romeo

HE ACTUALLY BELIEVED IVOR’S STORY WOW

Oh really

I won’t get to see how much better you’ve made Beacontown

Okay keep telling yourself that Romeo

Wow Jack’s sure had a change of heart

“I don’t want to end up like Fred.  I don’t want Beacontown to be like Xara’s town.”  don’t worry Petra we got this

Binta you bean

Guys do you maybe think just waltzing in like you own the place might be a bad idea even though technically you do own the place

Romeo’s gonna die he X’d out Lukas’s face

I like how the soundtrack is like a dark version of the episode one opening credits soundtrack

DON’T KILL THE PIGS

WE DON’T KILL THE PIGS IN BEACONTOWN

Romeo did it ever occur to you that all this lava might be a fire hazard

Oh look it’s me-wait no

AXEL AND OLIVIA NO THAT’S NOT ME

Just WAIT THEM OUT don’t SNEAK INTO THE SHOP WHILE THEY’RE IN THERE

Romeo you-

I’m gonna kill Romeo

He is threatening to destroy Redstonia and Boomtown nice Romeo way to be subtle

I am going to kill you Romeo

I am going to kill you s l o w l y a n d p a i n f u l l y

He just destroyed Champion City for ABSOLUTELY NO REASON RIGHT IN FRONT OF STELLA’S EYES

Lluna no

I don’t think Jesse has ever said “eh” in her life way to be subtle Romeo

YEESSS OLIVIA AXEL

Stop talking so FREAKING LOUDLY

Axel no offense but you two aren’t exactly the brightest sometimes I think the others will have no problem telling that’s not me

hah

yeah

A “pretty good Jesse impression”

Because I would totally put posters of myself up all around town, completely change basically everything about the town into a lava-and-fire version, and destroy Champion City to PROVE -clap- A -clap- POINT

That’s totally something I would do

Petra what’s wrong

“Stella sucks even when she’s on our side” nice to know that you haven’t changed at all Petra

I’m sorry this is a sad moment I’ll try to be more sad

Oh what, you mean #potato451?

Careful Jesse he could be listening you never know

Don’t SHOUT did you not HEAR ME HE COULD BE LISTENING

Alright I have a feeling this lever will advance the plot so I’m not gonna pull it yet

That he is Axel

“He’s just been...missing.” LUKAS

Jack named the parrot Archie

I bet he’s Nurm’s and Nurm made Jack keep him

-when- we defeat Romeo, Binta.  Not -if-

Okay shut me down Jesse “don’t think we’re going to be able to read our way to the tower” geez

Good idea Petra

Okay I think that’s everything

Pull the lever Kronk- er, Jesse

“By the tides” Vos and Jack use the same expressions

Whaaaat was that

Petra just sliding in to save the day

NURM

HAH I TOLD YOU WE’D FIND YOU

IVOR

“Jesse, I’m a ninja.  Where else would I be?” perfect

JACK IS FANBOYING OVER IVOR

Could this episode get any better wow

This game is great nice throwback to episode one

Did Ivor’s text color change

I like how he tried to be cool and say his names and stuff and then just gave up 10/10

Frankly I’m surprised he fell for your deception hook line and sink he should be smarter than that

How thought it’s embedded in the bedrock

Romeo have some common sense don’t just talk about the primary terminal when it is the only thing that can defeat you

I mean don’t stop being stupid because it’s helping me a lot but man you’re almost painfully stupid

Axel he killed one of his friends and imprisoned the other and still thinks THEY’RE “bad friends” no we can’t just reason with him

“Jesse taught me to keep the explosions in boomtown” good job Jesse

“I’m formulating a plan”-Jesse wow this episode is just a treasure trove of great lines isn’t it

JesseCon

Romeo why are you like this

Help us Stella

Montage we got a montage-

THIS IS AMAZING

“Are you sure I can’t just blow up the stage?  That would be distracting.”  for the love of notch Axel no you can’t just blow up the stage I thought Jesse taught you to keep the explosions in boomtown

“Then we wait for the big fireworks finale!”  “the...what?”  “It’s Romeo. I promise you there will be a huge fireworks finale.”  22/10

This planning montage is actually the best thing that has ever or will ever happen in this game

Petra was just surfing Jack up a waterfall what a time to be alive

“Explosions, excitement, explosions...I love it!”  keep going Axel honey you’re doing great

Stella will help us are you kidding me she knew that “Jesse” was the Admin before literally anybody else in the town

“I could follow her to them and then we wouldn’t have to talk!” me at every social event ever

“Great. Can I say how much I don’t like this plan?” Petra hush this is a great plan

Woohoo I’ve got my overalls back

She’s almost fooling me I think we’re okay

“One serving of Admin, coming up.”  Jesse that’s just weird

An ocelot LUKAS WHERE ARE YOU-

There’s a golem over there careful Jesse they might be equipped to know exactly where the Admin is and if they’re equipped to know exactly where the Admin is then they’ll know that you’re not the Admin

Oh look a piston contraption I’m gonna step on it

It’s Ivor from the very first episode all over again

“Your greatness” no

I’ve got golems at my disposal nice

Crap

HIDE

that ‘s not Stella

NELL

The statue is following her wow

Oh no

OH NO

HE’S GOING TO NOTICE THE STATUE FRICK

It’s Nell get it right Romeo

There’s Stella

Romeo is so thick sometimes I swear like he hasn’t once thought “hey maybe my city is being infiltrated by the real Jesse”

Wait nevermind he thinks the real Jesse’s dead

NO NELL NOOOOO

This is great watching Jesse try to be Romeo trying to be Jesse might just be the purest thing on this world

You just found out now that I’m back because I just got back like less than- I would say 2 hours ago but Minecraft time is different sooooo

See Petra I told you we’d be fine

“I happen to be an excellent actor.  I shall get into character.”  you do that Stella

Way to be subtle guys

No Binta that’s an awful idea

“I’m glad that we as a town could come together to celebrate-- of course it was mandatory but I sense that you wanted to come anyway.”  that is such a Romeo thing to say

Shut up Jack

“That’s like planning a birthday party without...well...without any fireworks!” such a tragedy

We MAKE fireworks that’s what we’re supposed to do Petra

Lukas’s book!

Stop talking so loudly he is going to hear you

“Only then you will scatter the shadows and reveal your goal”  that was weirdly deep Jack

BINTAAAA

She is a lot freaking stronger than I thought she was wow

Oh no

How can one person be so clumsy

Actually my real question is why did they let Jesse do the stuff a clumsy person could mess up easily Petra could’ve done the elytra-ing and we still would’ve been fine

Pick up the waterfall someone is going to see it

Are those withers

Who was that

Oh hey Nell

Stampy?

Stacy?

LUKAS

Does he still think the Admin is the real Jesse

Darling you’re right the Jesse you know wouldn’t do any of that stuff the Jesse out there is a fake

Dear notch don’t say it out loud he could be listening

That’s right only room for one crazed egomaniac

I like how Stampy has an army of parrots resting on his shoulders

frick

Come onnnn

Your office in MY town

I told you to pick up the waterfalllllll

COME ON

GIVE ME BACK MY FRIENDS

“Smug, arrogant, insignificant” wow I didn’t know the Admin was describing himself

Romeo’s impressions of the citizens are pure gold 10/10

are you KIDDING ME

ROMEO

WHY -clap- ARE -clap- YOU -clap- LIKE -clap- THIS

Yes because FJORDS are the biggest thing here

noooooo

Agreed Lukas such a jerk

FIND THE TERMINAL SPACE NOWWW

LUKAS

THERE ARE STAIRS -RIGHT THERE- JUST CLIMB UP THEM

Hey by the way where’s Xara

Where is my wife I want my wife back

THIS PLACE IS COOL

Well yeah Jesse we look around with our eyes what else would we look around with

Romeo doesn’t have any friends

Don’t fall off

Unlike season 1 episode 5, that is actually the Void and it doesn’t have any land beneath it

“Enter your password to begin a new program.” what

I bet that the chest is a creative inventory

How about the normal potato it isn’t “#poisonedpotato451”

Just try both of them it’s not hard to figure out

What is this freaking grid for

Wait

I bet it’s that symbol from episode 1 that like nobody talked about ever

No it isn’t

OH i get it

I think it was probably a bad thud

IT WAS A GOOD THUD

FFFFFFFFFFFFFRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Okay so that post I made about the golden gauntlet was sort of incorrect  Romeo didn’t make it

Again?

Romeo’s been human before?

What

OH MY NOTCH

SCREW OFF ROMEO DEAR NOTCH OH MY GOSH

Don’t TELL HIM THAT

Just GREAT there are COLOSSI NOW

Was that a freaking hand pun

Vos except not Vos

I really have no words

Thank you Telltale for such an amazing journey

[sky-girls]

PLEASE DO A FANFIC WHERE SIMON/MATTEO MAKE AMBAR/LUNA 'S MAKEUP

I have no idea what this is, the many make up tutorial I have watched never prepared me for this, but thanks to @deliverydefresas for letting me use her nickname.Hope you enjoy. (Here’s the eye make up he TRIED to recreate)

It’s Jazmín’s idea, of course it’s Jazmín’s idea, and the worst part is that Delfi is on her side this time and they both do the best they can to convince her to do it and she can’t actually refuse them, because it is a good idea and it will be good for the fab&chic but she really doesn’t want to do it, she really doesn’t. ámbar sighs, she still hasn’t asked him, he could say no, she knows he is vaguely terrified of makeup, he flinches every time she applies mascara, she can still get out of it.  

“So…” She starts when they’re cuddling in his couch watching a movie. “The girls want you to be in the channel?”

“Why?” He asks looking down at her confused and Ámbar rolls her eyes.

“Because the Roller Band it’s becoming famous and it will really bring a lot of views to the channel.”

“Oh.” He nods. “What would I be doing?”

“They want us to do a boyfriend does my makeup challenge.”Ámbar explains, looking closely for his reaction.

“Oh.” He says again. “You don’t seem too happy with it.”

Ámbar bites her lip, not sure of how to tell her boyfriend that she does not trust him with make up brush near her face.

“You don’t trust me with it.” Simón exclaims somewhat offended before she can say anything.

“It’s not that.” Ámbar hurries to explain. “I just know you are not into this and I don’t wanna force you to do something you don’t like.”

Simón raises his eyebrows at her and she smiles innocently up at him.

“You don’t think I’ll do a good job.”

“You know nothing about makeup, Simón.” She explains.

“You don’t trust me.” Simón exclaims disentangling himself from her.

“Of course I trust you.” Ámbar puts a hand on his cheek and smiles at him. “Just not with this.”  

Simón gasps dramatically and Ámbar rolls her eyes at him. Simón looks at her with his mouth open and then stands up, very dramatically.

“Tell them I’ll do it.” He informs her and bends down to kiss her quickly. “See you later, little gem.”

And with that he loves to go to his room and Ámbar is left in his couch feeling extremely confused and slightly afraid.

Ámbar is sitting in the couch of her living room feeling very anxious, they decided to film at her house since her godmother is traveling and according to Delfi it should make her feel better, but it doesn’t, she is actually worrying about Simón messing up so much he stains the very expensive couch.

Jazmín is done setting everything up when Simón arrives and for the first time she curses her boyfriend’s punctual nature.

“We are all set.”Delfi informs him. “You guys just need to start. “

Simón sits down next to her and smiles at her, she tries to smile back, she really does.

Jazmín lets them know they are all set and Ámbar puts on a smile.

“Hello guys, as you already know, I’m Ámbar.” She says. “And this is Simón, my boyfriend.”

Simón does a little dorky wave and she can’t help but smile.

“And today we are going to do the my boyfriend does my makeup challenge.”She informs the camera. “I hope you are as excited for this as I am.”

“Don’t believe her.” Simón chimes in. “She is terrified I’ll mess up so much she won’t be beautiful anymore, even if that it’s impossible.”

“I’m not terrified.” She says. “I’m just not elated by this.”

“Whatever you say, little gem.” He smiles down with a sparkle on his eyes at her and she has to remind herself that they are on camera because she really want to kiss him.

“Anyway.” She ignores him. “I have all of my make up here in front of us and I can’t tell him what he is supposed to do with anything, I guess.”

“Let’s see if you can actually manage that.” Simón laughs and she looks offended at him.

“Are you telling me I’m bossy?” Simón shrugs at her question with a smile on his face. “Just start.”

Simón looks at her impressive collection of make up with a face so confused she is already regretting this.

He reaches for one of her many foundations and then for another looking at them intently, he chooses one and Ámbar is biting her tongue to not tell him that he should use primer first.

“Everything okay?” He asks her looking weirdly at her beauty blender and squeezing it in his hand, she thanks Jazmín for pre damping it.

“So now I’m putting this….”Simón turns around the jar looking at it from every angle. “Foundation on her face.”

He is about to take a pump out of the jat when his eyes catch something.

“That thing is called primer.” He tells her and she nods. “Does it mean it goes before everything else?”

“I can’t tell you.” She shrugs.

“I’ll take that as a yes.” Simón tells her takes  the primer. He squeezes a little bit of the bottle and examines it in his finger, after seeing it’s sheer he puts that little bit on her face and take some more.

“So right now I’m just rubbing this weird stuff on her face for some reason.” Simón starts talking. “Though as far as I know it’s not doing anything.”

He takes back her foundation and takes a pump out.

“And now that that’s done we are going with foundation, I suppose.” He takes a little bit of the foundation on the beauty blender and starts dabbing it on her face, a little too forcefully for her taste. “So you just dab, dab, dab, until it’s looking at least kinda nice and somewhat like the skin underneath.”

He keeps dabbing and rubbing around her face for a few seconds and then smiles.

“Done.” He exclaims. “After that comes the other skin thing, the one that, the other one.”

He grabs her concealer and looks at it intently, looking for the name.

“Concealer, that’s the name.”He lets the camera know with a smile and she smiles up at him not sure what else to do if she can not run. “You put this thing under the eyes, so people can’t see your dark circles and on the nose, like in the bone thing of the nose, and in the forehead.”

Ámbar takes a deep breath when Simón goes back to dabbing with her beauty blender.

“ohhh…ups.” Simón bite his lip and looks at her with wide eyes. “I think that was too much, so if this happens to you, just keep dabbing, just dab forever, until it doesn’t look like too much anymore, just dab...Yeah, that looks better, she still looks a little bit too white but it’s better.”

Ámbar takes deep breath and resists the urge of asking Jazmín for a mirror.

“Now to the eyes.” He says and takes a palette and some brushes, he opens it and closes after a few seconds and opens it again. “Okay not this one.”

He looks around for another one and opens it just to close it seconds later, he does the same with a few other ones but apparently he doesn’t like any.

“I can not choose.” Simón informs her. “So I’ll just put this weird powder all over her face.”

He takes her translucent powder and a small blending brush, Ámbar can’t help but laugh.

“What? Not this one?”Ámbar shrugs with a smile. “The brush or the powder.”

“I can’t tell you, love.” She repeats and he huffs, shaking his head.

“I’ll assume it’s the brush, ‘cause that makes sense for me.” Simón says at looks around for a bigger brush. “I like this one, it’s fluffy.”

He powders her face and then goes back to looking for an eyeshadow palette that he likes.

“This one!”He exclaims. “It has a lot of blues and that’ll make her beautiful blue eyes pop even more.”

Ámbar has to smile at him.

“So first we put this color.” He show a dark blue to the camera. “On the eyes, well, on the eyelid, don’t put anything in your actual eyes, that's dangerous.“

Ámbar giggles at his comment and he smiles at him.

“So you put it on the eyelid.” He loads the brush so much it makes her heart beat faster on fear and then brings the brush to her eyes. “Oh, wow, maybe not that much, just take that to the other eye and blend, just blend, it’ll go away at some point.”

Ámbar takes a deep breath and tries to calm herself while he keeps blending for a really, really long time.

“Now that she doesn’t look like she got hit on the eye.” Ámbar gasps, and he winks at her. “Just joking, love. Now we use this lighter color and also put in the eyelid, but not in the whole eyelid, on top of the other one, but more to the crease.”

“After that’s done you take the black here, and put it under the eye.” He says. “Maybe just not as much, because that doesn’t look good at all, but if you do it right it will look good.”

“What?” Ámbar exclaims.

“Don’t move too much, little gem, you’ll ruin it even more.” Simón laughs and she doesn’t know what to say, she starts dreading the moment she is allowed to look herself on the mirror.

“I’m not doing eyeliner because I can not handle that, but I am doing  this eyelash gloss,eh, mascara, so pray for that I don’t poke her eye and I end up single.” Simón chuckles.

“Just so you know.” Ámbar tells him. “I totally would.”

“I know that love, that’s why I said it.” He smiles sweetly at her  and she rolls her eyes.

He carefully applies mascara and then looks at her.

“That’s not incredibly awful.”He shrugs and Ámbar shivers. “Now to the lips.”

He looks around until he finds a nude lipstick.

“Since I messed up so much the eyes and the concealer.” Ámbar sighs. “I’ll go with something easy on the lips that I can not mess up, I hope.”

He puts the lipstick softly on her and then nods.

“Now a little bit of the bright thing that goes on the cheekbones and done.” He exclaims. “Give her the mirror.”

Jazmín hands her a mirror with a weird smile and Ámbar is not sure she really want to see the results. She takes a deep breath, puts the mirror in front her face and it’s left surprised with what she sees. It’s not perfect but it’s not anywhere as awful as he made her believe it  would,  the eyeshadow it's not the best but it’s not bad either and he actually did a good job with the foundation and the concealer, she is not sure he could have handled contouring but at least he did some highlighter and did it decently.

“And?” He asks excited.

“Not bad.” She admits. “Not bad at all.”

“You should have trusted me.” He tells her with put and she can’t help but to give him a little kiss on the lips.

“Let’s not go that far.” She smiles to him and he pouts more. “Thought I have to admit it’s pretty decent.”

“I did my research.” He states proudly and Ámbar smiles at him.

“Well that was all for today.” She tells the camera. “If you liked this video remember to subscribe and like, and if you want more videos like this put it in the comments.”

Jazmín lets her know she is not recording anymore and she turns to Simón.

“So you did your research?” She asks raising an eyebrow.

“I had to prove you you were wrong.” Simón lets her know. “And I did.”

“You did not.” Ámbar shakes her head, crossing her arms around her chest.

“Just admit it.”Simón smiles. “I did a good job.”

“You didn’t do a terrible job, that's different.” She says.

“Oh, little gem, I know you don’t like to admit when you are wrong, but this is too much.”

“I was not wrong.” Ámbar exclaims.

“You weren’t right either.”He comments and Ámbar sighs.

“Maybe you are right on this one.” She admits

“Was that so bad?” He teases.

“The worst.”  She pouts.

Simón smiles brightly at her and leans down and kisses her softly, fight a smile.
