Rural Glamour: Me and The Cosmetics Settlement...

Wednesday, January 21, 2009

Jamie's account of The Cosmetics Settlement:):

I didn't go the the first day it started, which was 1/20/09. It snowed down here and when it snows in South Carolina, the world stops turning and every one runs out to get milk and bread from Bi-Lo. Plus...it was all day "midgetry", Kel and Boo, because school was cancelled too...

I went today instead, bright and late around noon. When I got to Dillard's, I signed a list then I was handed a list of the items that where available. I had already eyeballed the list at home, but whatever. The SA quickly highlighted what was LEFT... Clinique Moisture Surge( pass...not a Clinique fan...and has had this before in the past) Armani Code Shower Gel( For Men...Kel and Boo ain't old enough, ha!) and Estee Lauder Night Repair. WTF? Sigh...I went reluctantly and picked up the Night Repair, which better than nothing.

But I just blew my mind that in 24 hrs this was all that was left. None of the 10 or so Lancome Mascaras...but just those three items. I dared to think of driving to Greenville to the Dillards and Macy's up there to see what they had left but I changed my mind and got on the road home.

What did you get from the Cosmetics Settlement Giveway? Let me know!!!


But on a good note, my Victoria's Secret decided to bring out some of the leftover semi annual sale stuff on the beauty side of the store. I got:


Pout Beauty to Wear Treasure Chest-3.75( regularly 25.00)
Beauty Rush Oil Blotting Sheets-1.25
Just Kiss Me Glossy Lip Balm( I wanted this the last Semi Annual Sale and passed on it and was thinking about it since...and there is was)-3.00=9.01 with tax included.

Shopping My Stash:Too Faced Chronicles in The Future Lovers...

Helloo!!!!

How's everyone today! Today's SMS is Too Faced The Quickie Chronicles The Future Lovers. I got this, I know, two years ago. I've might have done a FOTD on it before, I can't remember. I once got a question from a reader wanting to know.."How many Quickie Chronicles are there?". I emailed Too Faced...And nobody ever got back. Don't you hate companies who don't answer emails about a product? geez....
Dusty looking....eh? I have tried to work this palette or whatever for the longest. The colors are strange mix.
Note:What I have found out in the past is that the lipglosses are all the same in the TF/QCs I've had...

I did the blue and pink shades on the eye....blended well, great combo...



I also have on the blush...which look really light but very highlighting to the cheek bones...

Shopping My Stash:Jessie's Girl 432A-3...

Tuesday, January 20, 2009

Okay...I know what you are saying..."How many SMS posts are going to do, dang!" And my answer is..."AS MANY AS I LIKE".:)

This isn't old. I bought this in September or August and haven't used it. It was still in the cellophane wrapping. I can't be this irresponsible...having unopened or unused products...not in this economy.lol!!

This is Jessie's Girl Bejeweled 432A-3 quad.



The shades in the quad reminds me of a look MakeupByRenRen did called Aqua Mermaid Eyes...


The light white shade is in the inner corner to the mid lid, the blue is mid lid to the corner, the olive color is in the crease and the brown is on the brow bone...whew!




I love it!! I want to use it more...

N.O.T.D:Maybelline Starlight Shimmer and Ruby Kisses Snow White....

Ah....I love this ensemble!!!!At first, I didn't think she would be warm enough but she is in layers:The long coat, a cardigan and a long dress. THEN she did those green gloves after the morning coffee....Honey!!.... The First Diva better know how to do the "finishing touches"!!!

This N.O.T.D is inspired by the Isabel Toledo dress combo...I first did two coats of Maybelline Starlight Shimmer then two coats of Ruby Kisses Snow White...


What a great day!!:)
