truth about Amazon...

Am I the only one who gets caught completely up on Amazon.com?
My today's haul:

Truth About Diamonds by Nicole Richie: I heard it was a fun read plus I think she's ridiculous anyway...

Fashion Victim:Our Love-Hate Relationship with Dressing,Shopping and the Cost of Style by Michelle Lee-I've wanted this book since I lived in Rock Hill and my second home was Books A Million. I hope its good.

Cosmopolitian Girls by Lyah Beth Leflore and Charlotte Burley- Okay Lyah Beth, I'm going to give it another try.

Complex Simplicity CD by Teedra Moses- Sounds good so far!



Tomorrow I will be a guest blogger on themakeupgirl while my darling Lianne is vacay-ing away. I'll link you to it tommorrow but please check out Glamourbee,Avin,and Ellen as we posts for themakeupgirl.

TJMaxx Mischeif

TJ Maxx to me is one the great beauty product and makeup chests on the planet. The brands that they have like Korres,Barrelle, Bliss,Bourjois, Molton Brown and list goes on are way below retail . But I have learned that you must be on up on the brands and the prices or you are not getting a good deal. Thank God I get about 15 magazine subscriptions a month! My lastest haul had me skipping to my car with a glossy smile:

Aroma Fresh Face Mask Soothing Cooling Mask-$3.00 clearance.It had a great refreshing smell and you never have enough beauty treatments!

Bliss ink pink blushing balm- I kind of compare it to a tart cheek stain. but it's in a lip gloss tube. Maybe that's what is was, the packaging was wrong.

Dessert Deliciously Kissable Plumping lip fragrance gloss in Slide( rich caramel creaminess) and Sunny(Peach and Vanilla sweet delight)(this is what the box says!)-I was really impressed by these glosses. They look really good on me,smell good and taste good. But the plumping stinging action can be dismissed. I've purchased some of this Dessert stuff in Marshalls in recent in months and like it. I wonder why I didn't like it before.

Bourjois Mojito Mischief( above,still at Bourjois for 28.00)- I love when I run into Bourjois kits in TJMaxx and Marshalls because I heart Bourjois! This one has loose powder eyeshadow in Rayon Vert( a lime green) and Uplifting Volumizing Mascara Noir,and 3D lip gloss in Beige Elastic all for 9.99.

Black'd Out

Product:
Chanel Nail Lacquer in Black Satin

Sold Out...and out of my reach...except for on Ebay.

Even though I have Rimmel's Nail Polish in Black Satin, the overwhelming insanity of everyone having the hot and now product took over me. I scoured Ebay til I found a reputable seller who had it.In three days, my obsessive bidding went from 10.50 to 29.90...and won that damn polish. So maybe the drugstore queen really did splurge for real this time, but it was worth the text messages via Ebay and constant clocking of the auction.I simply blacked out and went for not gold but satin.:)

Super Rave!! Three Milani Lip Products!

There's no doubt that Milani Cosmetics is moving leaps in bounds in the drugstore market. I've personally love their stuff especially the lip glosses. But they have some other products and new things that are amazing:

Milani Glitz Glamour Gloss- At first I didn't like the packaging so that's one reason why it had been on the shelves so long before I decided to see what is looked like. I picked up Charmer, a deep bronze that gave immediate intense color. I didn't have to put fifteen coats to get more than a sheer look. I just wish it was a little more glossy. But I love it anyway so much that I went back the next day and pick up two more, First Class(a pink mauvy color) and Star Stunned( a pretty plum)!

Milani Solid Shine Lip Pencil- I really lipstick pencils so I was surprised that I never saw these on their display. I picked up Spanish Rose and Deep Violet for my ever growing obession with deep reds and plums for the fall. Both are divine in texture and color and look rich. They remind me of a couple of Smashbox pencils I have in the stash.

Milani Color Perfect Lip Stick- One word: Fabulous!I got Royal Ruby,a blue red with glimmer that looks great. If you have blue undertones and are looking for that winter red, grab this one now!!
