Friday Favorites

While I prepare to sign my life away, (God willing. Why are closings tentative until the last possible second?), I thought you could enjoy a few of this week's favorites that don't involve pictures of my house or Namath's nasty scar. Everyone breathes a sigh of relief.

I've talked before about my love of Bare Minerals. Recently, I ran out of the mineral veil, I headed online to scope out the word from the street internet. I hardly buy a pack of gum without reading reviews online. Bare minerals now makes a pressed mineral veil, so you can just carry it right around with you. Perfect for those balmy 102 degree days. Reviewers raved about it, and since people on the internet know everything, I went out and bought myself a Friday treat.

I bought the tinted version, to complement the tan I've gotten thus far in my dimly lit gray cube.

At the end of the day, when it's time to remove that makeup, I've returned to an oldie but a goody.I don't know why I keep straying from the tried and true.

There's something about the breeze of the sea that seems to help in the summer months. Maybe it's all in my head, but I think it helps smooth my skin, but I'm sure any astringent would work.

I've been wanting to try Maybelline's Falsies mascara for quite a while. In the spirit of saving, I wanted to wait until I could get a good deal at CVS and I was out of my current tube. Mission accomplished. I'm really liking it so far, and I think it just about lives up to its name.

There's no reason to have a shiny face and lackluster lashes while signing yourself into massive debt. That's what I've always said, anyways.
