Need for a new camera

Hello

So I realized I need a new camera, I really don't like the outcome of my pictures from the camera I have now, which is a Olympus camera with 6.1 mega pixels. I haven't been viewing cameras lately because I didn't even know technology in camera is at 14 mega pixels now...wowowow!
I have been looking at one which is a Canon Powershot SD 780 IS. It has 12.1 mega pixels resolution and it uses a Digital SD memory card unlike my Olympus which uses a specific card, which is very hard to find. I think it has done its time and hopefully soon I find a camera which I'll love.
I am looking a excellent one that can record videos, has 12 - 14 mega pixels, has HD capabilities and all that camera good stuff, it will be for personal use (not professional), range in price $150-$250

If anyone has any great suggestion please let me know. Thank you.

EOTD

Purple is my next Fave color

Hello

So lately I've been doing a lot of purple looks or looks with purple in them. I have been loving the color purple lately. My fave makeup color is blue but purple has been growing on me. A purple makeup item I have been opting for every time I think of doing a purple look is NYX purple and NYX Luxor. I love both colors they are extremely pigmented and easy to blend. NYX purple gives a nice duo chrome look. I have tried it on a purple base and it looks great but on a black base, wow! It gives an incredible purple blue reflective color. Love it!

Now for this look I decided to use NYX purple and also Loreal HIP Flamboyant. I haven't used Flamboyant in quite a while so here is a look using those items.






Products used:

FACE:
Maybelline Dream Liquid f/d: Drk 3
NYC Loose powder
NYX Tan concealer (under eye)
Black Radiance pressed powder: Rich Mahagony (contour)
Clinique stick blush: Rosy blush

NYX Tan concealer
LD
NYX purple e/s

Playing in my Makeup Pt. 1

Hope you like.
