My Gift to Myself

Thursday, August 10, 2006


Don't ever say I don't buy beauty products other than the drugstore. Because today I gave my self a little beauty haul of sorts. This morning, I applied a couple coats of mascara, bronzer, and Victoria's Secret Mirror Mirror l/g in Pink Slip and Philosophy The Supernatural l/g in Clear. I wasn't feeling very full faced today so I keep it light. I love Pink Slip. I got it in a VS Lip Pallette during the semi-annual sale and wanted a tube of it. So after I took Kel P. AKA "Pretty Pat" to his therapy, We headed for VS in the Westgate Mall. Unfortuntely,VS is in the process of overhauling their their makeup line so I only had Aura Science to pick from. I picked up Aura Science's True Red, a wonderful matte red that looks insane on me! I felt like a light came on my face! I also got Aura Science e/s in Garnet Plum. I want to do a deep plum smokey eye for when I'm feeling "Gothic". AND I got their new LE Insatiable 3-n-1 Wash in Watermelon Tease and Key Lime Lust and Key Lime Lust Lotion.It felt so girly to walk out of VS with the pink bag for the first time in a long while.

Over at "The Icing" I bumped into some discounted Cargo. Yes,Cargo Cosmetics for 50% off. I go tthe Cargo Eye Pod and l/g duo in La La Land.

So I'm off to work and I can't wait to get home and get in the bath with my new stuff!

Muah!

The Way It Is...

Wednesday, August 09, 2006


Hey chicas,

I 'm sorry that I've been ghost. I got little promotion at work( I got my own desk AND some awesome Reference projects to work on!) so I haven't had much to talk about unless its how many sets of literture encyclopedias can a library have! Any way, I'm patiently waiting on Keyshia Cole:The Way It Is and Project Runway. I think I'll fix a cup of tea and piece of Momma's banana cake and watch it. I love Keysh's show. Her CD got me through the last year. I feel like she wrote every song for me.:) . Project Runway, I watch because I love Tim Gunn's comments. He is such a fashion intellicual. He speaks design in such a way,I want to "make it work"!

On Tia's new post, she rapping about Lola's wedding and suggested MAC Spite as a great nude gloss. Ladies, I might have travel for this one. Plus I might pull out some of those green shadows I got.


Blogdorf Goodman has been doing awesome "Rock The Gloss" Challenge every day. It's making rethink lipgloss and lipstick in a different way. I think I'll do a Eyeshadow Challenge. If you chicas want to join, you are ever so welcome.I would love to see what you are wearing each day for seven days. We'll start tomorrow.


Love ya!

okay,

Not everyone is a Payless fan. They do run low on quality sometimes but lately their stores are more shoppable and the handbag selection has been pretty cute. I love these little red ballet flats.
