Picture are from Temptalia ! It's really a wonderful site, you much check it out! I don't own any of these pictures! I just wanted to share with you all the awesomeness that is Temptalia and it's founder Christine. The lovely above is Lancome's Temptingly Bronze Bamboo Bronzer.... Just look at it. I'm bamboozled. Hahaha. (Sorry.) Isn't it gorgeous! Isn't it amazing! But then, look what happens after the first application (or two): I'm heartbroken. No really. The pink and gold are all gone. You're left with a less inspiring bronzer, I think. I'm sure the product is wonderful, but after the first image, I'm all "meh." Oh well. This is really why I subscribe to Temptalia in the first place. I love to see the pretty new MAC collections , the gorgeous Guerlain products . But I'll probably never buy. I might buy a highlighting powder from a MAC collection someday (god, I wanted one from Dame Edna , did I ever). But, all in all, it...

Facebook Chat

He's just pretty funny, I guess Boyfriend: damnit Me: sorry Boyfriend: I thought you meant the game Me: Oh HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA WHAT I've never played Yahtzee in my life! Boyfriend: lol ok me neither it just looks REALLY boring

White strips

I started using Crest Advanced Seal 3D white strips. I wish I had taken before/after, but I didn't. It's really working though. I've always been a little touchy about my yellow teeth (THANKS SO MUCH DAD!) It runs in the family. We all have yellow teeth. Awesome. Well, I hate to go so long without posting. Then when I look back on March/April, I'll have though my life was really boring. I work at Walgreens now, loves it. Not stressful. I develop pictures. Some are cute, some are hilarious, and then there is the butt sehks pictures we are unable to develop My bosses are cool, my co-workers are cool. Yup. Anyway, I'm going to go blow up Megaton or something.

More than you ever wanted to know about my dental habits

I don't have the best dental hygiene habits. I brush every day, of course. But I often forget to brush before bed. And forget about flossing. I hardly even use Listerine, despite having a whole liter of citrusy mouthwash. But, I'm all anal about having good healthy habits (except when it comes to eating, of course. BACON AND COFFEE). I always wear sunscreen and sunglasses. I wash and moisturize my face every night. Never forget the eye cream. I try to drink between 6-8 8oz glasses of water a day (I'll count real fruit juice, but not soda or kool-aid). It seems silly that I don't always drink six glasses of water a day, but there you have it. I rarely drink these days. I don't smoke -- Interesting aside, I almost took up smoking. Two things stopped me. 1) K-Swiss is extremely opposed to it. Extremely. 2) It ages you quite quickly! I once read an Allure article about anti-aging, with tips and advice. When it was listing all the things to do (stay hydrated, eat he...

Dear Ponds, I heart you.

No matter how dedicated I become to Mary Kay -- and believe me, I can't wait for a complete switch out of my entire skin care regimen -- I will always be in love with my Ponds Dry Skin Cream**. It ranks 7th in Total Beauty's 19 Awesome Face Moisturizers , above some high end brands (Benefit, Origins, Estee Lauder) and even a doctor recommended brand (Cetaphil, I've never heard of a brand more recommended to friends by derms than Cetaphil). It says you can use it during the day, but I only ever use it at night. Every night, after washing my face I use acne cream (if needed), eye cream, and then I slather this stuff all over my face and neck and massage it in. I'm pretty generous. I don't want it all to absorb into my skin, because then my face would feel dry again. I mean, I don't coat my face with the cream, but my skin feels soft, maybe even a little oily to the touch. That way, I feel like my skin absorbs the cream all night. I wake up and my face isn't o...

Why Mary Kay

Image
I have recently made the decision to become a Mary Kay Beauty Consultant. While I'm starting out, I'm working closely with my recruiter and my director and other ladies. My recruiter, Jenny, is someone I have known from the very first day I stepped foot on Abbey grounds. She was working for Admissions, giving prospective and future students tours of the Abbey. She was fun and energetic, honest and refreshing. That was over six years ago. She's now married and a mom, but she's still got all those wonderful qualities that made me want to be friends when we first met. The more and more I research, read, and talk about Mary Kay there more intrigued and interested I get. Let me say that about 4 or 5 years ago, when I was a waitress in Greenville, I considered working with Avon, after all, I knew I already loved the products. My mother is so in love with Avon! I met with an Avon Representative over lunch. She was kind and positive, but essentially I was to give her $10 ...
