Some Rambling

I just wanted to say hello to everyone and to apologize for not posting in a while.

Don't worry, I am still a make-up and beauty addict, and have so much to tell you, but I have been very busy moving! I have lived with my amazing family for 23 years now, even during college, because it was only 6 miles away. I am now venturing out on my own. I love the place, but what amazes me especially is the bathroom. I will do a post on it once I am moved in. It is so big, has two full walls of mirrors, and many many cabinets. Can I say a girl's dream come true? If anyone else would appreciate something like that, it would be you lovely ladies.

Since I am moving and have most of my products packed, I have been sticking to the same hair and make-up routine for a few weeks:

HAIR
-John Frieda Volumizing Shampoo
-John Frieda Volumizing Conditioner
or
-Paul Mitchell Smoothing Shampoo
-Paul Mitchell Smoothing Conditioner
-Process: Wash hair at night, let airdry as I sleep. Spray conditioner in the morning, put in some mousse, and let nature run its course. End result = wavy beachy hair.

Make-Up
-BE is back in my life! I gave it one more chance and love it
-Maybelline Mineral power concealer under eyes and around nose
-TheBalm Bahama Mama Bronzer
-NYC blush
-Too Faced Shadow Insurance
-Coastal Scents Natural Pallet for E/S
-Maybelline Define A Lash Mascara + L'Oreal Telescopic Mascara + MAC Zoom Lash
-Revlon Colorstay automatic pencil in black
-Revlon Colorstay liquid liner in black
-Milani Lipliner in Most Natural
-BarryM lipstick in #101 Marshmallow
-MAC lipstick in Creme D' Nude

That's it! Not much experimentation there. Have any of you tried anything new and exciting recently?

Anonymous - Go to www.barrym.com and you can order there even if you live inthe US, which I do too :-). Good luck!

Emma - do you have a lot of barry M's lipsticks? I only have that one. Please let me know if you suggest any other colors. I wish it was a house, but I will be living in a cute apartment, but I'm happy because it will be all mine (until the rent is up) haha! I'll take pictures once I settle in :-)

I love Bahama Mama! I own it too and it really is a great bronzer, isn't it? I hate bronzers with sparkles, so this one is perfect and it blends really well! We're both NC40s! Yay! lol.

The rest of thebalm's products are amazing. One you may also love is the hot mama blush/shadow. It is amazing. :)
