BEST Mascara and ~Gift with Purchase~

I totally forgot to brag on the new "Gift with Purchase" that Lancome has starting on O2/01/11.....but that I got early!!!!! Woo-hoo! I had to purchase my ALL TIME ABSOLUTE FAVORITE MASCARA from Lancome.....Definicils in Black, and lash primer that I would never, ever put my mascara on without which is the Cils Booster. For real, I don't think that I will EVER switch from these two products, I love them almost as much as I do my Louis Vuitton purse, and you that know me, know my purse love that I share with Louis! ANYWAY, so Gift with Purchase was the mother load of surprises!!!!! Seriously!!!!!!
1. An incredible 3 pc. brush set!!!! OMG! Worth it's weight in gold!!!!
2. High Resolution Wrinkle Cream....great size, not stingy
3. Renergie Lifting Cream....ditto above
4. Tube of Juicy lip gloss!!!!
5. Genifique YOUTH ACTIVATING CONCENTRATE.....now that's what I'm talkin bout
6. Eye make-up remover
7. Hypnose Drama Mascara.....travel size
Woo-hoo, Woo-hoo and WOO-HOOOOOOO!!!! How great is all THAT!!!! If your in the need of some great Lancome products, go get em on Feb. 1st and share in my joy!

Seriously?? Enough already!!

O.k., so I have noticed that my skin is like FREAKING OUT lately!!!  Seriously, the red blotches, the red color in the water line of my eyes,  the whites of my eyes look like I've been on an all night  bender, what else.....oh yeah the sagging jowls!  Remember the cartoon "Droopy"....I'm not far from sir droopy sisters, ugh!!!  ANYWAY, so I went to wonderful Macy's today to try to find some fixes to my face 911's.  I found some really, really cool yellow powder by Clinique that is used to combat the red blotchiness on your face.  The young lady that helped me was a sweetie, she had skin like a  porcelain doll, the white in her eyes almost blinded me and she was flawless.....REALLY?  ANYWAY, she talked me into purchasing some face "Serum" to do all kinds of miracle working wonders and we went over a lot of other avenues and don't you know that the ONE thing I went there to find, I left there without!!!  OMG!   BUT, I did stop by Chanel, love Chanel, and found some pretty cool products that I received samples of  and cannot wait to try!!!  I am going to try my hand again at applying my foundation with a foundation brush, I have an old one from Lancome but purchased a Chanel one today because I had a weak moment, I'm like a kid in a candy store, NO SELF CONTROL!!!!    ANYWAY, so I did purchase from Chanel a really cool Khol Eye Pencil in the shade of, well Claire #69.....BEST YEAR EVER!!  Ha, Ha....  I used it on the water line and at the upper lash line and it really did tone down the redness around my peeps, it's like a flesh colored pencil, very cool!!!  So I did get one of my goals accomplished today, Woo-Hoo!!!

One of My FAVORITE new finds!!

So, here's where it gets FUN!  I got a sample of a "Lip Plumper" if you will, and I must say that I am  in LIP LOVE!!  I got this as a free sample with a Sephora order,  It is by *Buxom* and is called "Buxom Big & Healthy Lip Polish", it gives a slight "Tingle" to the lips and friends, at this age, a little tingle never hurt nobody!!!  Woo-Hoo!  Anyway, I tried it in the colors of "Amber" and "Dolly", and I don't think they carry this duo anymore but  they are a sheer type of color, not bold, which I tend to gravitate towards and absolutely feel incredible on my smoochers!  Sephora is offering a travel set at $39.00 which gives you 4 mini lip polishes and 4 mini lip liners, the set is originally $72.00!  It's called Buxom City Slickers and I would say you would not be disappointed, I know I wasnt!!  Let me know if you indulge!!

Old Man Winter Skin....BLAH!

Well ladies, it's the dreaded time of year when from your lips, to your legs, you feel dry and itchy!  I myself hate my dry cracked lips, drives my crazy because nothing I put on them looks good due to all the lines.  So I found *Olay's Regenerist Anti-Aging Lip Balm/Treatment*
Notice, the Anti-Aging!  Anyway, cheap chapsticks contain a waxy coat and alcohol which as you know if very drying and needs to be reapplied way too much for my taste.  The Olay treatment contains a lot of well needed vitamins for our smoochers and feels great on.  Average price I have found runs from $17.00-$20.00 and you can find it at pretty much any drugstore or Ulta....LOVE ULTA!!!

Well, Here I am!!!

Woo-Hoo.....and you will see that I say that a whole lot if you follow along in my journey's!!  I am so very excited to have my first big girl post on my first big girl blog!!!  This is fun!!  I am going to post some products and tips later, I have kids to pick up and basketball games to get to and I need to go and get my "Face On" !!  So, I wanted to say hello and welcome not only to you but to me as well!!!  So here I am, impressed yet?  Ha Ha

The wonderfully 40's vintage photo of me was taken by my very bestie in the world Christy, she does absolutely amazing photography and makes me look downright appealing!  Check her out, she can do the same for you!!!  Woo-Hoo!  O.K., a funny fact to my bestie Christy, I am technologically deformed, ignorant, cursed if you will, so my picture will not upload.....and I just have to throw my head back and laugh
