I need to think of more interesting ways to say "Haul" in the title

Er yeah. Like the title says, I like to think of interesting ways to say "haul" instead of just being blatant. Because I try to be a clever motherfucker. But I'm not at the moment. So, if you have any idears, I would like to hear them (I have used Haulage, "They See Me Haulin', They Hatin'", and the like beforehand). Er, yeah anyways.

Yesterday I went to the mall and bought quite a few things. First of all, I went to MAC to FINALLY check out the Makeup Art Cosmetics collection. I had already seen the promo pictures and swatches and whatnot, so I knew what to expect for the most part. I wasn't too impressed with the quads or any of the lip or cheek things. The single eyeshadows were mediocre, and the ones that interested me I had dupes for. I was interested in 3 eyeliners and one of the pigments. The pigment I wanted to see, Push The Edge, was out of stock. Plus, I think I have a dupe for it. So I looked to the liners; Colour Matters (bright green), Obviously Orange (coral-orange), and I forget the name of the last one, the one that looks like romping but in liner form. I wasn't too impressed with Obviously Orange, because personally I found it was a bit too light and frosty for my skin tone, and the hot pink one was also sold out. Boo. I also decided to pick up Reflects Copper on a whim, because I heard such great things about it.

Since I had some left over money (two gift cards together totaling in at about $55) I decided to pick up something that I have always wanted from the permanent line; Morange lipstick. I saw a few girls rocking orange lipstick recently and I thought it looked really hot, so why not try it? And I'm so glad I did. It's gorgeous, and my new favorite bold lipcolor. Much more unique than hot pink.

Anyways, Lancome was having a deal; spend about $30 and get a cute carying case, minis of their Bi-Facial make up remover, Absolue Premium cream, Genifique youth activating concentrate, and Definicil mascara, PLUS a full size lipstick (two choices) and either a blush or mini shadow quad. And to boot, if you spend $50, you get three extra full size lipsticks FOR FREE! It was a great deal, so my mom bought a Lancome Dual finish powder (I didn't take pictures or swatch it), and I bought a full size of Definicils mascara, because I love it soo much. Now on to the goodies!

Cute bag! Choice of it in either red, blue, or black.

We chose the blush duo instead of the eyeshadow quad; Top is "Cedar Rose", bottom is "Aplum"
