Brand New Big Lots

We've finally gotten a Big Lots in town and boy am I glad it didn't arrive a year ago. I would've filled up on all the excess makeup I don't need. There was a ton of Maybelline products from eyeshadow quads to Mineral Powder liquid, powder and concealer. There were nail stamping kits and nail art polish.
Mineral Power in the top left. Some Dream Mousse blush or maybe bronzer below that. Revlon Age Defying foundation. I think the lipsticks in the red tube (top center) are Maybelline, and then some Covergirl lipgloss. Lots of random Colormates crap. A row of SoftLips going off center right.

Revlon and Sally Hansen polish duos. Various LaCross implements. Nail Art polish and, coolest of all, nail stamping kits. Those are can be fun... but they are pretty challenging and can cause headaches and slight rage.


Various Maybelline eyeshadows, pretty stuff. Some Revlon Color Stay Quads (I have this shade, thanks Tiffasaurus!) and Mineral Mousse foundation. HiP blushes. NYC Brow kits.

There were also a ton of lip balms that didn't make it into the photos. Various blixtexes and chapsticks.

It speaks to how well I've got at not buying unnecessary crap that I didn't feel the slightest bit tempted by any of these products. Although considering how many lip products I've had to toss recently, it's not hard to understand my new point of view. 

HOWEVER, I was browsing the racks when I saw a tube of Covergirl Lash Blast volume for a mere $1.50. What on earth? I couldn't figure out why it was so cheap, but I need some new mascara. I took a closer look and soon spotted the glaringly obvious "defect".  This is a tube of Lash Blast Volume mascara with a Lash Blast Luxe wand!

Lolololololol

 

I call it "Lash Blast Veluxe" and for a mere $1.50 it was mine.

So, that was my first trip to a big lots in about four years. I think it was a major success.

Gosh, sometimes I just don't know what I'm doing anymore. Sometimes I feel like I'm falling apart. Sometimes, I wonder if I did the right thing. I think I did. I'm sure I did. Right?

Dear Frog-- What can I say but: I told you so? I don't mean to sound so harsh, but from the beginning, I figured I was destined to "fuck up," as I so put it. And, well, I fucked it all up. I am sorry. I never meant to hurt you, but so it goes. It is in my nature. Did I not tell you this before? Perhaps, someday there will be one whom I will not sting. I will change my very nature to help this person cross the stream. Oh, but dear Frog, I feel now that I cannot say that I wish I hadn't messed everything up. As wonderful as our times were together, I feel I would have stung you eventually. As you nurse your wounds, know I will always remember you. I hope that one day you can forgive me.

LONGAVILLE: You swore to that Berowne, and the rest! BEROWNE. By yea and nay, sir, then I swore in jest. What is the end of study, let me know. KING. Why, that to know which else we should not know. BEROWNE. Things hid and barr'd, you mean, from common sense? KING. Ay, that is study's god-like recompense. BEROWNE. As thus: to study where I well may dine, When I to feast expressly am forbid; Or study where to meet some mistress fine, When mistresses from common sense are hid; KING. These be the stops that hinder study quite, And train our intellects to vain delight. BEROWNE. Why, all delights are vain; KING: I've seen for days that you've got The ways that must be checked In you I never can detect The slightest signs of intellect Your mad on dances, think of the chances you neglect You never seem inclined to use your mind You're just a fella who Has got his brains in his dancing shoes Take a lesson from me BEROWNE: I'd rather Charleston LONGAVILLE and DUMAINE: Do...
