Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips - Nude

I first heard about this palette from emilynoel83 when she talked about the nude palette.
This first intrigued me because of the packaging... cute huh? But I also love how small it was, prefect fir travel or to throw into your makeup bag. Which I find is why I don't like the naked palette; because it's so long. 
As for pigmentation I think it's great! The palette is also split up into trios and the thinner stripes are the "liner". But really you can do anything you want with these shadows.
Have you ever tried Shimmer Strips?

What have I been reading?

I haven't posted in a while, but I guess that's normal now :)
I thought I wold talk about what I've been reading: Pandemonium by Lauren Oliver
This book is the sequel to Delirium and the second book in a trilogy. 
This series is set in the future where love is a contagious disease. In the series you follow Lena who, in the first book, is about to turn 18 and get the 'procedure' which is these people taking out part of your brain (is my impression) that feels passion.
I think for every reader this is different, but it's what I've inferred. 

That's all I'm gonna say cause I don't want to spoil it. But I love this series! And the last book comes out in March 2013, and there is also a short story out called Hanna who is Lena's best friend. I have yet to read that, but I am quite excited to. 
Lauren Oliver's first book is called Before I Fall  which is definitely a teen book (so is this series due to swearing but she also has a children's book that she co-wrote) but I highly recommend it!
Lauren also has a blog! and Twitter!
What's your current book?
