Did you ROLL yo' hair?....

Monday, August 25, 2008

Something happened between the relaxer the time I put in my hair 6 weeks ago and three years ago( the period of being natural) but when I curl my hair, it holds no curl. I can curl it and it look fab and full but about hour later, it looks flat. I don't like flat hair...that's probably why I most likely will not buy a flat iron.


So asked around and found out that there is roller, Hype Hair Satin Rollers, that are covered in satin so I don't have use roller papers and gives me soft curls.

I found them at Wal-Mart and decided to hold off buying them. But then my Momma said she had some and that she didn't want them. So gave me her pack, the 12-ct pack, minus two of them. She had lost them.

I channeled my dear late Grandma, Mrs. Ida Jane( a women of fine penmanship and Aigner handbags) and my lovely LS, Jocelyn( who is a religious hair roller and lover of Tiffany silver jewelry) and got to rolling. Out came some really pretty soft curls that I loved. I played with them with my hair oil, Africa's Best Ultimate Herbal Oil, and it loosed them up a bit. I felt very going-to-the-sorority-meeting yesterday. And today I still got curls and didn't even roll it back up.:)

N.O.T.D: N.Y.C. Charming Rose Creme...

Hey couzins!

Sorry I've been missing in action. Diva had a stomach virus from hell then, no appetite, now I feel okay physically but being sick at the stomach scared me to death. Am I not eating right?Is there something wrong inside? So a mini depression ensued with all that worrying. I GOT TO LOSE SOME WEIGHT. Damn.( sorry) Just when I started to not give a damn again.

There was nothing pretty about me in the last four days. I did scrounge up some energy for church and the kids wore me out yesterday. But before they got up yesterday morning, I did a quickie mani/pedi in N.Y.C. Charming Rose Creme that I picked up a couple of weeks ago at Rite-Aid. I still call it "Edkerdzzz".

Ready steady for the Fall, I tell ya.

Review: Wet N'Wild Mega Eyes Creme Eyeliner in Eggplant...

Wednesday, August 20, 2008

Got this couple weeks ago at Walgreens. And my Walgreens still has a couple, so holla at ya girl it you can't find it in your mix.

Wet N' Wild Mega Eyes Creme Eyeliner in Eggplant is quite interesting. First, it looks black in the package and you know how WnW wraps their stuff up. You need a hand saw to get in it!

I almost chunked the brush but then it felt good in the my hand so a took a chance.



Here's how it looks. With a flash.

Here's a very close up swatch...

The texture is very gel like and light in the application. It took about three lines on top of lines to get a deep color on my eye. Then it looks wet. But surprise!!! It dries up and still looks uneven in color. Dang( trying to work on my horrible use of profanity). I wasted 3.99. I'm mad. But I'm a girl of second chances...and getting my money's worth... so I MIGHT try it again. Someday.

Ulta Mini Haul...


Did I mention that actually got out to Ulta last Friday? I had to go Greenville to meet the kids and the Plaintiff for a dentist visit so afterwards, I decided to have lunch at Brixx with a friend and then I went solo to Ulta...
The first thing I did was take off some wedge sandals a Diva was rocking and put on some flip-flops because I KNEW it would be long visit since I've been in there since LAST SUMMER.
And it was a LONG visit! lol! Almost two hours of unadulterated beauty orgasmic experience. Maybe its because I don't get there often...but I'm starting to warm up to Greenville. I really like it up there:)
Here's what I copped:
OPI Cafe Cuties La Collection De France Fall 2008
Ulta e/s in Plum Noir and Night Sky( they were BOGO free)
Essie n/p in Sassy Satchel( it was clearance).
Total bill ( with a $5 coupon out of the In Style Makeover Fall Mag...)
$18.10.
Lovely...:)
