PINK Nation by Victoria’s Secret event

Delphine — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 16:16:09 +0000

Be sure to join the PINK Nation for exclusive discounts and shopping events. You get emails with coupons for cheap deals, example: right now you can download a coupon to get a limited edition tee for $5 instead of $10 for non-members (with PINK purchase).

There will also be a PINK Shopping Event October 11, 2009, 6:30 – 8:30 for members only. The email says there will be prizes, music and special offers. Once you get to the site you can find out if/where there are events in your state (of course not being held in Maine) grrr… and print your invite.

I received some VS beauty samples and hope to have those reviews up for you soon.

please accept my apologies

Delphine — Wed, 15 Jul 2009 03:47:33 +0000

things have been so busy I’ve been too tired to blog at night. As many of you may already know, I’m a one woman show and with the 3 kids out of school I don’t get one minute off until bedtime (9 p.m.)

There’s nothing really new about that but the situation is in overdrive so I am going to hustle through and get back in the swing of things starting right now!

Thanks for understanding

thoughts on RHNJ Reunion

Delphine — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 17:22:53 +0000

ok, so I have had no clear resolution on Teresa and Danielle’s friendship after viewing the Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion part 1. That upsets me, I feel a need to know what the heck is going on. People don’t flip tables at other people and then sit in a civil fashion next to each other after something like that – I don’t care how much time has passed.

Regarding the ominous, thick as thieves family mafia ties etc… there is no proof of that. The fact that Caroline’s father-in-law was murdered could mean he was not cooperating with the mob.

And since I’m talking about Caroline, I’ll mention the tearful rant directed at Danielle, I have to wonder if everyone is going to be ok after this. This run of the Real Housewives has me very worried about these people. I know they signed up for it and were probably well compensated but it seems that there was a LOT of emotional damage to all of them this season. It’s really very sad, and to be honest I’m ashamed to even watch it.

Father’s Day Gift Idea: Budget Conscious Soap

Delphine — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 15:44:45 +0000

Just because you don’t want to spend a lot doesn’t mean he can’t have a great Father’s Day! The perfect solution is a useful gift that doesn’t cost alot.

Consider Kings & Queens bar soap, an easy to mail, useful $6 solution to Father’s Day. A great gift for the sensible man that likes to keep things simple! A big bar of soap will keep him clean and will appeal to his sense of frugality for quite a while. The Pepper Bergamot variety seems especially appropriate for men!

Fergie in Pucci

Delphine — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 20:12:01 +0000

When I first heard Fergie was in a Pucci dress I got all excited, but after seeing the pics I’m not even sure it’s a Pucci. Here she is in front of David Letterman’s Late Show last night.

heels and long lashes

Delphine — Wed, 11 Mar 2009 15:58:20 +0000

Every smart woman’s wardrobe includes a great pair of stilettos for their lengthening effect on legs. So it’s only natural that her makeup repertoire should induce that same dark lengthening effect. Maybelline’s LASH Stiletto mascara can help you achieve that. It’s new, it’s washable and it’s awesome. Maybelline knows about lashes… great lash is still a personal favorite but I would say that it provides a more natural look… LASH Stiletto is seriously sexy and lenthens lashes.

How do you guard against product build up on your brush?

I usually scrape the brush against the rim of the mascara tube the first time I use it that day. It takes some of the product off and it’s easy to do. The less product the better that first layer is, Lash Stiletto looks best with multiple layers, apply while still wet. I used to take off the excess with a tissue but I worried about the tissue ingredients rubbing onto the brush so I came up with this new technique.

The Sweep Grip and Extend Brush is really good because it has a thick end and a thin, smaller end so you can choose which you want to use by the angle. I’m an all black mascara girl so I’m using 951 very black, even though it’s washable I haven’t had any problems while out and about, I know I’m not the only one paranoid about runny mascara in the rain. Lest I forgot to mention I experienced no smudging, it’s super easy to take off and available in a drugstore near you. Give it a try sometime soon and let me know what you think.

Winter Skin Solution, Amarte Aqua Veil Pure Hydration Serum

Delphine — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 07:09:41 +0000

So how’s your skin doing? By now you may have gone through your first winter skincare products and looking for something new.

My skin’s holding up pretty well so far and with Maine getting some very terrible weather in the near future I’m bracing myself, and my skin!

If you’re doing the same be sure to look into Amarte (accent on the E) Aqua Veil Pure Hydration Serum.

Aqua Veil is extremely hydrating but light, not at all greasy making it perfect for daytime use except for one little thing - no SPF. With winter in our midsts it’s just a great excuse to stay home and cuddle with a good book and tasty cup of tea. Or of course you could apply a seperate SPF or foundation with SPF and just be fine out and about.

Whatever you decide, it’s clear why Aqua Veil was chosen to represent Amarte in the BeautyFix package. Great product and seasonally appropriate to combat dry, chapped skin.

Roll Call of Ingredients:

```
Natural Betaine

Mallow Flower
