Did you have a rollickin’ Saturday night? I had a great time at that Peruvian restaurant in the city. The food was delish, however I got house late. I still feel a bit groggy this morning, however it’s nothing a vat of tea can’t fix!
Got a few things on my plate today… We have business going to next month from Hawaii (El Hub’s parents), so I requirement to begin tidying up NOW! after that ideally I can capture in a trip to the films to see Inception.

URBAN DECAY
URBAN LASH
FRIHET! I will permanently keep in mind July 12, 2010 as the day my inner drag queen liberated herself from a life of frumpy fringe as well as went into the world of big, poor falsies.
Before metropolitan Decay’s metropolitan Lash line ($16 each; 18 to select from), it took me permanently to put on a pair of fake lashes (okay, much more like 20 minutes).
Thanks to the new line, which just introduced for fall, falsies are officially less of my makeup Achilles’ heel. checked out more…
BENEFIT SUNDAY FUNDAY
SMINKEVEILEDNING
Is it wrong to want Sunday brunch on a Wednesday afternoon? — or to get a bit dolled up as well as don vibrant makeup in the middle of the week? I hope not, since today the benefit Sunday Funday combination as well as I have reservations. We’re doing a daytime/brunch look together featuring eyes in purple as well as bronze.
To test the flexibility of the brushes that include the kit, I told myself not to utilize any type of other brushes for this look, which was difficult since I’m truly picky about my eye brushes. I typically ditch the ones that include palettes such as this one, however the Sunday Funday brushes really radiate like stars. I wouldn’t toss my finest brushes for ’em, however they ought to be excellent for trips as well as handbags when you want to travel light.
Despite the palette’s name, I’m guessing these colors are risk-free to wear any type of day of the week, ha! checked out more…
NYX nude ON NUDE
NATURAL look KIT
Let’s strip, shall we? If you’ve been lusting after the hard-to-find metropolitan Decay naked palette, NYX has some potentially excellent news for you as well as your wallet.
Swatching the NYX nude on nude natural look set ($11) this afternoon, one of three NYX sets released for summer, I was struck by exactly how similar its shades are to a few of the ones in UD’s $44 Naked.
Kan det være?? A naked dupe for one fourth the cost?
It’s not a overall dupe, of program (see the comparison swatches below); there are some shades between the two that aren’t anything alike, not in exactly how they look OR feel.
Not surprisingly, I believe the metropolitan Decay shadows feel a bit smoother as well as look much more intense on my skin, which is not to state the NYX shadows don’t hold their own. In fact, they hella do. checked out more…
BOOTS candy PINK
AND star ANISE
While I was off stuffing my deal with with complimentary fruit samples at the farmer’s market last night, I road evaluated a couple of goodies from the Boots makeup line — natural blush Cheek Colour in candy Pink ($9) as well as Botanics Lip Gloss in star Anise ($6). ‘Cause, you know, I’m all about appeal bargains. as well as multi-tasking. as well as complimentary food!
Have you tried any type of Boots makeup before? I’m new to their makeup, however I like the few Boots skin products as well as makeup wipes I’ve tried.
Originally from merry olde England, the Boots line sailed onto Target shelves a few years ago. Their makeup providing looks quite comprehensive with great deals to select from (foundation, blush, eyeshadow — basically, the works) in colors galore. checked out more…
STILA ROAD
TO RADIANCE
Now HERE’s a makeup pattern I can completely get behind: $10 department store makeup palettes!
Who understood that when metropolitan Decay introduced their $14 deal with situation earlier this year it would be the very first salvo terminated in a budget plan appeal battle for eyes, lips as well as cheeks?
Um, can I just state that as far as makeup patterns are concerned…budget-friendly travel palettes are like a billion times cooler than vibrating mascara wands? They make my inner bargainista want to raise the roofing system (1998-style)!
The restricted edition Stila road to glow across the USA combination is the very first of five new restricted edition $10 Stila travel palettes going to over the coming months, each one influenced by the fashion, people as well as colors of different Stila women around the world (the business plans to releaSe en mye mer av dem hver måned med november). sjekket ut mer …

Burberry Appeal introduserte offisielt forrige tirsdag i San Francisco Nordies butikk, i tillegg til at jeg spratt forbi for å inspisere den nye sminkelinjen, samt for å chatte med Christopher Bailey, Burberrys sjefsinnovative regissør (og ganske potensielt en av de mest høflige og vel som godt kledde dudes jeg noen gang har møtt).

DOLCE GABBANA
Blossom Eye Duo
Den iriserende lilla så vel som skinnende rødlig kobber av Dolce & Gabbana glatt øyenfarge duo i Blossom er så lyse at de burde ha inkluderer nyanser! kostbare ($ 36 for to skygger, oy vey!).
En av 10 pulver øyenskygge-duoer i selskapets langsiktige linje, lyser opp lokkene som en dobbel regnbue all metoden over himmelen.
Disse lysene pakker pigment som fortjener en finansiering som! Imidlertid er de ikke bare levende; De takler å se myke på nøyaktig samme tid.
Med en flott base (i dag benyttet jeg Metropolitan Decay Eden), ser Blossom også ut til å stå tidens prøve. Nesten 7 timer så langt så vel som fargene fremdeles går sterkt.
Nå, hvis vi begynner på en innskrivningskampanje, i tillegg til at Dolce & Gabbana skal sette disse i salg hver gang på en stund, vil vi være satt! sjekket ut mer …
Lipfusion lipgloss
I prinsesse
Før $ 29-kostnaden for Lipfusion Luxe Boudoir Collection Lipgloss gjør deg helt cranky (det er Chanel-territoriet, yo!), Tenk på dette: $ 1 av det går til Seven Bar Foundation, en non-profit gruppe som hjelper til med å utstyre underprivilegerte kvinner til å begynne lite selskaper med mikrofinanserte lån.
Sannheten skal sies, jeg vil gjerne se at lipfusion bidrar med mye mer enn $ 1 fra hvert salg (mens jeg reduserer eller holder kostnadene det samme), men jeg taper …
