    Happy Pi day!

    That's right folks, today we celebrate the amazing number that is Pi (y'know, 3.14...) Don't ask me, I don't come up with these things. Anyway, this look was simple but smokey. The lip gloss has a lot more purple shimmer than shows up here, it really looked nice. Face: Soothing Care...

    New Colors, New Camera!

    I finally got a new camera (my very late Christmas prezzie) and I'm lovin' it, though with the higher megapixels I noticed it does show every little freckle and wrinkle on my face. Alas, we can't have everything. I also got my second Archetype order, with a boatload of samples and so far...

    Another attempt at "Mod".. plus a new 'do!

    First pictures are this morning before a desperately needed haircut. I was wearing a '50s style cardigan so I thought a retro look would be cute. Wow, do I have a lot of forehead! Face: Monistat anti-chafing gel, MAD light concealer, MAD Light Golden foundation, EDM Snooze Bar blush, MAD...

    Pretty Peridot!

    Brown about town

    I love brown, next to lime green its my favorite color! The blending on todays look was pretty terrible because I had to "erase" some of the shadow and start over above my crease and I just didn't have time to totally correct the whole eye. Oh well, I don't think anyone noticed except me...

    Good facial cream for lightening spots?

    Does anyone have a rec for a good facial moisturizer that will help lighten up brown spots and uneven complexion? I've heard good things about Olay Regenerist but haven't tried it. I'm guessing that what I need is something with alpha-hydroxy acids in it but I'm really not sure.

    Jonesing for Sping

    Wanted something light and airy today, the weather was perfect and I can just taste Spring in the air (probably snow tomorrow just to spite me). 'Scuse the dorky hair.. I'm running out of ideas and I think I need a cut. Face: Monistat anti-chafe gel, Fyrrinae rice powder primer, MAD light...

    Rose quartz for the heart

    Happy VD a day early y'all!! I'm trying out the Fyrinnae Rice Powder I was able to get my paws on thanks to a co-member of another forum. I actually really liked the added oil control I got with this but my multiple face layers are a bit time consuming in the morning. Face: Olay Complete...

    Let's do the Time Warp again!

    I felt a bit punkish today so I broke out my Rocky Horror hoodie and took my kiddo to the zoo (how anti-establishment, I know). I didn't want to put on a lot of heavy stuff, but didn't want to look totally frumpy either so I tried for a retro look. Face: Olay Complete, Monistat anti-chafe...
