Oh Honey!!!

Monday, October 23, 2006


Today was rough one. So I came home for lunch to finally meet my Oyin package! When I got off work and got the kids bathed and asleep, it was time for a little indulging. I've have Oyin products in the past and love them. So here's what I tried tonight:

Oyin After Bath -I put some,just little in the bath water and on my skin after I got out.The consistency is almost like a gel, not runny like oil can be , which is beautiful. The warm water made the warm but subtle scent of Black Cedar Fig fill the bathroom. Great for cold night and dry fall/winter skin.

Oyin Honey Wash-I like this very much because its texture reminds me of Olay Ribbons Wash,Thick,sudsy but leaves a clean finish to the skin. I can't wait to use it again in the morning!!

Oyin Whipped Shea Butter in Black Cedar Fig-I topped it all off with this great butter. It's like butter too, you just take a little and it goes a long way. I put a little extra on my feet and slipped on some fluffy socks.


My next Oyin haul will be:

Fizzy Milk Bath
Greg Juice
Burnt Sugar Pomade


Good Night!!

Mini Raves!!!

Friday, October 20, 2006


Scent of the Day!!

Sharon Bolton Scents in Truth-absolutely fantastic!I can't stop smelling myself!!!


I would to say thanks to Carla at Product Girl who sent me the most amazing thank you gift!

I have some mini raves for the week:

KLS by Kimora Lee Simmons Highlighter in Juicy Java- I love it. It's a beautiful brownie color that actually matches my skin with a little shimmer.It's like a pressed powder highlighter and not like some highlighter i have that sent on top of skin and look ashy. A pleasant surprise from the Queen of Opulence!!

Cover Girl Queen Collection Powder Foundation in Soft Copper-Last week I bought the liquid in this same color and yesterday I went and get the powder foundation. Same color match and all!!
Plus it went on smooth and gave coverage like I haven't seen in a while.Good job Queen!!

Milani Easybrow in Dark Brown-I literally had to hunt this down because every where I went there were only black pencils left in this. I love the strong, thick brow and I fought mine for so many years. But now that they are back, I still have places that I need to feel in. I like the small point on this and stiff brush on the other end. Plus the dark brown is a true dark brown not a blackish dark brown. I going to grab some more of these up!!

Yesterday I also picked up both Rococo Rouge and Baroque Blue by Stacked Style from Marshall's for $9.99 each.

J's Fall Reading List

Tuesday, October 17, 2006

I already have too much reading to do for work. People really don't think because you work at a library you don't read for enjoyment. That's what most of the people I work with do. I just finished reading The Last King of Scotland, preparing myself for the movie that's coming out soon. I'm reading my 2nd Greg Beherendt book and I'm going to donate,He's Just Not That Into You, to work because some woman's going to need to read it. I have a new list of personal things I want to read:

The Beautiful Fall:Lagerfeld,Saint Laurent, and The Glorious Excess of 1970s Paris by Alicia Drake -I saw this reviewed on Blogdorf Goodman and it been on my list read for awhile. I read A.L.T by Andre Leon Talley and his seventies adventures and I love it.

Chore Whore by Heather Howard -I was watching the Style Network last night and saw this author talking about her book and what inspired her to write it.


Confessions of A Beauty Editor by Linda Wells -I flipped through this on Saturday in B&N and was going to get it at 24.95 but decided that Amazon would probably be cheaper plus I love Allure mag!

Express Lane Meals by Rachael Ray -We got this at work and I've already checked it out.:)


Free With Purchase by Jean Godfrey-June -I know,I'm late on this one, but I going to get around to reading it.


Modern Girl's Guide to Motherhood by Jane Buckingham-I always need some help with dealing with being a mom and being a fabulous,chic mom.


What's on your list to read?
