The Weekly Roundup: Posts You Might Have Missed - Makeup and Beauty Blog

Rise and shine, morning celebrity! How did you sleep? I'thousand actually sleeping right at present, yep, at this very moment. I'm transmitting this mail service electrochemically from a dream, a trick I've developed afterward years and years of blogging.

What are you lot upward to today? I'm thinking nearly going out for breakfast, like a real breakfast with bacon, eggs, pancakes, the whole nine yards. That, of form, means braving the cold rain exterior, which I'chiliad non looking forward to AT ALL.

While I become my sh*zz together and get ready to go, what did yous recall about the Giants winning the Earth Series this calendar week? To exist honest, I'm non a big baseball fan (more of a football/basketball game kinda girl), but it'south easy to get excited when the habitation squad is doing well and crazed fans are running around screaming "GO GIANTS!" at every turn.

And I saw some interesting Giants-themed makeup this calendar week, a lot of it being worn by those very aforementioned crazed fans. I wonder how many people went to piece of work like that. Heck, I wonder how many people actually went to piece of work at all!

KORRES x-COLOR
PENCIL KIT

Holy wow! That's a lot of liners. And they're full size as well!

The pencils in the Korres Express Edition Vitamin E ten-Color Pencil Kit work out to just $3.25 each ($32.50 for the kit). Of course, all of them are green. 🙁

No, not literally. I hateful they're eco-friendly and 100% natural, co-ordinate to Korres, fabricated with moisturizing Vitamin E and jojoba oil.

NARS Problem MAKER
LIMITED EDITION KIT

I got in problem today, ladies. Yeah, the master called me into his office and said, "Karen, you are no longer my favorite trouble maker."

Wha!?

I'k happy to hang out with this Problem Maker. It comes with some really squeamish pieces, like the eye primer. That one's the frickin' bomb dizzle!

The mascara and makeup remover are in a higher place average, besides, while I think the liquid liner's just good (not great). In a nutshell, it's a pretty sweet kit for the coin and a good value from NARS. Purchasing the products separately would price $89 (the Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Base alone costs $24), so $60 isn't too bad.

One could always go the set with stockings in mind, keeping the primer (seriously, it's amazing!) and the mascara or makeup remover, and giving the remaining items away. Read more…

I don't really know my neighbors very well, but I'm sure they know me — as the crazy lady who walks her cat on a leash while wearing lots of eye makeup and bathrobes. Ha! Gotta love it.

I kept getting that expect, yous know the one, where they're afraid to make middle contact, but their glassy, direct-alee stares betray what they're actually doing, which is watching you from the side with their peripheral vision… I do it a lot at restaurants to see what everyone else is eating, haha.
