rue-madame's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just a girl... I really want to buy Dandelion, but I think instead of taking advantage of the 20% sale (enter promo code BCFF20 at checkout, through Nov. 8th), I�m going to use the rest of my Sephora gift certificate. I did some quickie calculations and determined that buying in CT (where sales tax is 6%) is less expensive than shelling out $6.50 for shipping. Is it me, or did Benefit used to be less expensive? It�s always hard for me to spend a ton of money on makeup, by the way. While there�s the side of me that loves the fun, painting aspect of applying color to my face and the designer side that loves the packaging of more expensive brands, my dominant practical side just doesn�t care that much. It�s got to be something I�m going to use every single day or it�s not worth it. In my swingle days, the most I could be bothered with was mascara and lipstick (jesus, when you�re 20 with nice skin and no signs of aging or sun damage, do you really need more than that?) So every day it�s: I need to add some sort of blush into the mix to de-sallow-fy my olive complexion and I also need to toss concealer in there as well (Yes! I know! I�ve been squawking about this for months�nay, years--and still! Concealer I do not own! I can never find the right combination of texture and color, and you wouldn�t believe how many saleswomen are clueless at matching and application!) One day I would like to master the perfect Smoky Eye although as my little sister emailed me today �you have to remember that you have bedroom-y eyes so you have to be careful that it doesn't look like a big old mess!� Thank god for sisters and their honesty. Who knew I had �bedroom-y� eyes? I once was told they were Catherine Deneuve-like, but not �bedroom-y.� I�m taking this as a compliment, even if it means eyeliner will never be part of my female arsenal. Speaking of, here�s what�s in my handbag (courtesy of this lil lady): What�s in your handbag/pockets? Studio keys, apt keys, car keys And on a final superficial note, TA told me that last night one of his project partners was looking at MJ bags on the Neiman�s site. So he says to her: �Are you going to buy one from Neiman�s?� Partner: Yeah 3:56 p.m. - 2005-11-04 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
