12.11.10 Beauty & Stolen branches

Yesterday morning, I took Porkchop to the park for a walk and ran into some fallen branches. My friend's been asking me to come up with a branch display for her wedding next month, and I thought of collecting them every time I go to the park. And this is the perfect time since it's Autumn, and leaves are falling off trees like it's going out of style. Instead, last night I showed them to her and she thought of using them for her bridal party earlier today. Not only that, but I ended up helping her with her favors. One of my best friends even came down from Las Vegas. It was fun, and I won the first prize in her party games. It was a game of who had the most called items in their purses. I had 14 out of 20. And I was so excited that my prizes were beauty related. Unfortunately I don't have pictures of my wins, but it's really just Victoria's Secret Stawberries and Champage lotion and body spray.


Oooh, soo I've been getting really into Lisa Eldridge's makeup tutorials, and she is so ridiculously glam, it's inspiring. And she uses drugstore to high end and does it flawlessly. I've learned so much because of her. I've even gone out to get some products I've seen her use that I can afford like No 7's Nude Lip Pencil, and just this morning, I got an elf blush in Pink Lemonade. I can't stress her enough. Lisaeldridge.com. Oh, and yesterday after walking my dog, I did stop by Target and had to pick up ink for my printer. While I was there I was looking for the Pink Lemonade blush and it wasn't there, so instead I picked up the golden blusher/highlight/all over cover stick, two concealors in light beige and apricot beige, eye makeup remover pads which doesn't look like or feel like much. The No 7 lip pencil in Nude, and a Sonia Kashuk's nail polish in Tauped.


Oh and while I was looking up Sonia Kashuk's Tauped nail polish right now, I came upon this site, http://www.stylelist.com/2010/09/10/hottest-nail-colors/3. The first thing is Chanel's nail polish in Khaki vert which I've seen Lisa Eldridge wear as well, and it's a shade I am lusting after except I heard it it's hard to find these days. From seeing Lisa Eldridge wear it, it looks like Jade on your finger nails. At least it looks like Essie has a similar shade.
