[COLOR=0000FF]The temperature is much cooler---though technically still summer, it feels more like fall.  I started this week off more colorfully with Tom Ford's Burnished Amber e/s quad, Cheek Color & Highlight Duo, Softcore and what turned out to be am amazing lip combo---MAC's Have to Have It lip pencil, Tom Ford's Negligee lipstick and Tom Ford's lip glass in Pink Quilt---love, love, love this lip trio.  It appears rosy born on me.[/COLOR]
So beautiful

   [COLOR=0000FF]I don't blame you one bit Sage---those colors are gorgeous---especially PP.  I don't want to be muted.  We should be loud & vibrant if we want  to be.  Falling leaves are[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]   vibrant orange & yellow!!  [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]I am however itching for the vampy colors too, especially FOD & Sin.  Love them all.  Would you believe I've never worn Heaux?   Can you[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]   believe I don't even have Runway Hit[/COLOR]:shock:  [COLOR=0000FF]?[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]   I just put Tom Ford's Black Cherry nail polish on today.  It's super dark.  I'm not ready for Fall.  It was 72 degrees today & I was freezing!!![/COLOR]
Medgal, I just pulled myself up off the floor after having read that you a) have never worn Heaux, and b) don't have Runway Hit. I was put off by it at first and a trusted SA gave me some ideas about wearing it and I decided I loved it. I am not sure why I haven't worn it this Summer. I am sitting here fantasizing about 72 degrees?!? I forget what that feels like LOL!

Oh Lord Meka!!! I can recommend a feline psychiatrist because you traumatized that poor cat---JKing.

That's one 7-hr trip that should have been videotaped.
Pee for one, pee for all---I'm glad you otherwise made it safely, but this could be a very amusing chapter in your book!!!

Oh I think Runway Hit is beautiful----Meddy was just asleep at the wheel & missed it!!! Why are you fantasizing about 72 degrees? What are the temps like "in your
neck of the woods"---here I'm going all Al Roker on you!!!

3. Glad that you all arrived safely in spite of the pee-for-all (see! I told you it would be used again!)

Now that I think about it, the cat was pretty darned smart. You see how he calmed down after marking his territory----the car & Meka!! He felt like he had been there before!!!

Busy, so busy. Dealing with family issues. But I am good. I am always ready for fall! Hope all is well for you?

Thanks Sage! Crystal at the blog http://crystalis007.com/ and YT channel swears by the Mally face defender. I hope I didn't waste my money because I rarely use powder during the day (after my initial makeup application). I'll definitely review it after a couple of weeks. I meant to also say that m itching to haul some makeup. I might buy some stuff during the Nordstrom triple point event. My skin is rebelling on me so maybe I'll buy some skincare.
@meka72: 1. Pee-for-all! I WILL use this phrase again, I WILL! 2. Tell us your thoughts on the poreless face defender. 3. Glad that you all arrived safely in spite of the pee-for-all (see! I told you it would be used again!)

Hi Aradhana! How are you feeling?

It's been like a ghost town around here, but I get it.---that's life! How are your job hunting efforts going?

I've been wearing neutral eye looks---can't seem to get away from it but it's just such a fast and easy look to do. We didn't really establish a theme per se for September. We've been hanging onto summer for dear life. Summer is officially over September 22 at 10:29 P.M. EDT., so I guess we can go with the brilliant colors of fall---orange, brown, red, yellow and green. I'm sure there are a few more fall colors to inspire our MU looks.

Thanks re: the lip combo. I would never have looked a TF Negligee as a neutral but it really is.
hello! i feel completely recovered from my multiple summer flus...the job hunting is going, albeit very quietly....i'm using the opportunity to really look carefully at what kind of role i'd like to be in next.

i can't believe fall is here already...but it has gotten pretty cool over here...time for sweaters and jackets! and it's started getting dark earlier, that bothers me as well. why can't we just have sunset at 9pm all year round? why?
I'm looking forward to fall colors.
that sounds like quite an adventure. i've travelled with cats before, and i don't think i'd do it again. we didn't have pee in the car, but the cat just wanted to run wild.

glad your daughter's move is done, and only with relatively minor snafus! (can you believe spellcheck had 'snafu' in it? i originally spelled it with two o's)

can you share some of the runway hit ideas? i've worn it once or twice, but i'm always open to hearing other people's suggestions!

Medgal, that road trip was just one more episode in a life of crazy stories. To calm my daughter down after she hit the pole, I told her how I got the car stuck on a grassy island (like in a mall parking lot) because I drove straight instead of reverse. I made my cousin get out and push the car. Lol. I was 15 and didn't have a license. I also told her how many times I've hit cars/people/whatever and I'm here to laugh about it. So between YSL beige de peau and TF pink guilt, which is worth the splurge/most unique and will get the most use out of?

So glad to hear that you're feeling better, Aradhana! That was my first and last time traveling with a cat. Lol.

Oh I really like Crystal's YT videos---especially her hauls. BTW, her skin looks amazing. Well I will wait to hear what you think of the Mally Face Defender because I
could use help with my pores---they're HUGE! I've started a little collection of items in a Nordies cart. Mostly makeup staples so far. I blew the bank with Tom Ford's fall
collection and a couple of Charlotte Tilbury items. Now the holiday stuff is rolling out.

So glad you're feeling better---just in time for cool weather and less sunlight/shine. I'm almost ready for fall makeup---but not fall temps. Best wishes in your job search!!!

That's perfect Meka!! That will fit right into that road trip chapter!

Oh that's a tough question. Well YSL Beige Peau is a true beige and the formula is wet---or at
least it feels cold and wet when you apply it. That was surprising to me and unlike any other lip gloss that I have. TF Pink Guilt is thicker and looks more like
rose-gold. It too is unlike anything that I own. If you want to compliment some of your nudes with either of these glosses you can't go wrong. Both are unique in their
own way. If this is of any help, I did buy a Beige Peau backup---something that I rarely do. ​ Pink Guilt has been out for quite some time, yet Tf's fall lipstick, Negligee
looks like it was made to go with Pink Guilt.
