More Victoria’s Secret Beauty Gets (47)


Oh what to blog about~ I’m beyond stuffed with Christmas Party food + dinner + dessert of 6 mini gingerbread men & cocoa. The mini Gingerbread men from Trader Joe’s are FANTASTIC! I also bought the “cinnamon broom” there. It’s what it is. A straw broom dipped in cinnamon oil. I left it in the plastic bag because it’s extremely potent. I just leave it in the corner of the kitchen as decor and the whole downstairs smells like spice! It’s great and very Christmasy~

This week I finally used up all my Victoria’s Gift Cards. I bought that foundation with one actually. I’ve used it this week and so far I’m liking it with no ill effects! I mix it with my morning moisturizing lotion so it’s not such a thick of a coat. I don’t normally wear foundation. I only wear BB Cream once or twice a week. Other than that I just wear a light shaded face powder. But I’m liking the foundation. I needed something that was thicker than just my powder but not as heavy as bb cream. For those days I don’t get much sleep and look really rough.

Also I REALLY like Clinique’s Acne Solutions Spot Healing Gel. Before I would use the Acne Solutions Emergency Gel-Lotion. But these deep zits were just not responding to it for some reason. But seems the new gel is healing them a bit faster. Been using their concealer to cover & treat. It’s OK. It gets cakey fast so it’s a little frustrating at times.

Ah, so back to Victoria’s Secrets gift card gets!

Some New Makeup (36)


I got the new Urban Decay “All Nighter” makeup setting spray and Benefit’s High Beam last weekend.

I’ve tried High Beam in a sample and loved it. Finally bought a tube of it because the “to go” version fits in my daily makeup bag better. It’s lovely for winter & Christmas I think! Gorgeous shine on my dull winter cheek skin XD.

UD’s All Nighter is new to me! So far…
It’s pretty damn good!

Screw using a primer! This works just as good if not better. Last week one night at 10pm I told Mike. Look at my makeup! He said, “wow, it looks like you just put it on, haha!” Well it did. I do think it works better on heavier make or maybe just outdoors? It stood up amazingly last Saturday when I wore BB Cream and was running around the city. At work though I’d say it performs just as well as using a primer does. I still got a tad oily and used a blotting sheet at 2:00. Maybe I should up the sprays from 2 to 4? Or maybe it’s because I’m wearing simpler makeup during the week of just concealer, powder, and blush? Still figuring out the best methods for prime results! And did I mention so far no breakouts from this? I have my suspicions that Smashbox’s Photo Finish Light primer causes me a few pimples sometimes.

I actually wanted to try Dew Me because I’ve got dry winter skin or even the De-Slick oil-control setting spray but Sephora only had the original in stock which is fine. I have a sample size tube of De-Slick I want to try first anyway.
