Notes, Ponderings and Blather

    If you didn't know this about me already, my paid job (what I do when I am not testing stuff or do-gooding with dogs) is a television commercial producer. I am on a tricky job at the moment with almost no time to write. That doesn't stop me from thinking about things I want to tell you. I just don't have the time to flush them out.


    1. I am watching the second season of Bones right now, where everyone with lady parts wears the exact same shade of lip color at all times. (Except when Bones goes to the casino and Angel has to fight in the underground fight club.) I like the extreme natural peach of the color quite a bit. I think you can recreate that with Make Up For Ever's 1C lip liner and NARS Love Devotion lip stick. It's pretty darn close, on me, anyways. Now you can live like it's 2006, too.

    3. Combining Stila's One Step Makeup and Fresh's Twilight make the most beautiful shade of foundation. It's luminous, without being greasy. Seriously, it's bea-you-ti-ful. Just don't add too much Fresh or it thins out the coverage.

    4. Does the InStyler work? Does it get tangled? Do I need one? I am leaning towards trying it. But, like the clipless curling iron I had to have 2 weeks ago, I fear my hair isn't quite long enough yet. Thoughts?

    5. Some people should stop trying to be famous. Case in point, here. I said it before and I say it again, C&C Music Factory wants their dancers back.

    6. Kerastase Masque Nutri-Thermique is seriously being a life saver. My hair is dried out and it is making the ends stop looking so crinkly. Thanks, Kerastase!

    I subscribe to Allure and bought People at the checkout (unusual for me). I bought the Fresh, NARS and the Make Up For Ever. Stila and Kerastase were sent to me for review. I haven't tried the InStyler, hence the question, and I pay for cable, where I sometimes watch RHOWherever. This concludes my FCC statement.
