February 10th, 2008 · No Comments

I ran to the drugstore late Friday night to see what I could see, a sort of beauty vision quest.  I don’t get many of those these days so I went up and down every aisle.

I went searching around looking for glossy experiences. 
Lots of stores sell it and they had a fab launch [...]

Consider Your Remover Eye Q

February 6th, 2008 · No Comments

One of the most constant things in my life is wearing eye make up.  I started wearing mascara and eye liner when I was about 12 (retrospectively ridiculous).  It was a rite of passage in Queen’s, the blacker and thicker the better, but we didn’t take good care of taking it all off.

I’ve just had a horrible day culminating with cancelling my one day fashion trip to NYC! keeping a long story short - duty calls. The nice part about not going away were the nice back-handed compliments that I got from my oldest two.
