Proud Moment
My darling Lemmingista’s, I could NOT resist showing you my well organized lipstick drawer it took me half a nights work to get in order!
Kind of looks like Pop Art, doesn’t it???

Cosmetic Karma (or what goes around comes around)!
The two very lovely items below are from my friend & client Amber. Amber and I met on MUA and discovered we live near each other and she began coming to my Clinique counter, usually @ gift time. We also share the fact that we work Full Time for Uncle Sam (or Obama), however you wish to view it.
This time when she came for Gift with Purchase she presented me with a package wrapped in black...

How to score a deal @ lunch
So, I have never been a huge fan if Smashbox, EXCEPT, every Tuesday and Thursday @ their website they have what they call “Let’s do Lunch”, where they will give you a FULL size item free with the purchase of any other item between 9:00am and 2:00 pm Pacific Standard Time. So being on the East Coast when noon hits, I generally see what’s on offer and have scored some...

A Trip in the Way Back Machine!
Back in ancient times (approximately 1978-1981), when I was in High School, no self-respecting girl was without her Bonne Bell lipsmacker. Back then they only made them in the “fat” size and back then my favorite flavor was chocolate cherry.
They also made a face toner/cleanser called 10-0-6 that was a funky brown color and also had a funky smell and literally stripped anything...

The Cheap Seats. (Online E-tailer Version)...
Their is a wonderful online E-tailer of eyeshadows, palettes & MAC Pigments; StarsMakeupHaven.com.
I was first made aware of them by the wonderful KarlaSugar who promoted them with an online discount code.
I initially purchased 4 pans of shadow, as I had an empty MAC 4 pan palette around and wanted to fill it. The single pans sell for $4.95, so for approx. $20, I filled my palette. Not...

Big Girls Don't Cry ( They just buy more shoes!)
My darling Lemmingista’s, we take a break in this post from makeup and discuss another obsession of mine, SHOES!!!!!!
Unfortunately, I was not blessed with a pretty little size 7 or 8 foot, noooooo, I wear a size 11W shoe. Yep, that’s right, my foot is almost a foot long, and wide. A friend once remarked with feet like mine I could have been one hell of a swimmer. Trouble is I...

The Cheap Seats (CVS Haulette Version)
So my Lemmingista’s, as you have probably noticed I have been devoid of inspiration as of late. Once again, I have slacked off in my posting of my latest makeup lemmings. Ah well, we start anew with fresh hope for better days! (OK, even I made myself a bit sick on that one).
Today while trawling the CVS when I should have been at the Jiffy Lube getting the oil changed in the company car...

Will Spring Never Come??!
We are as about sick of winter here in the Northeast as Dancing with Stars is desperate for decent reality stars! Kate Gosselin??????? WTF!?!?!!
Anyways, as I listen to Rob Thomas’ Smooth on my IPod trying to find inspiration, I thought I’d give you a teeny glimpse of summer color from Lancome.
I am hoping to have some new eyeshadows from a wonderful online
E-tailer,...
