Okay so apparently I have already failed one of my New Years resolutions which was to blog more. I could go on and on with excuses that school has been so busy and yada yada OR I could do a quick "Fab or Drab" post with the promise that a review will be coming soon. So here goes!
Fab
1. Spring makeup collections- I miss pastel colors! Although I love the taupey greys and browns that I have been wearing lately, I am SO looking forward to pastel pinks, lilacs, yellows, and aquas of the spring makeup collections.
2. Bronzer- It has been MONTHS since my skin has seen any sunlight due to the fact that its winter and I wear SPF everyday so my skin is extremely pale to the point where it looks almost blue tinged. Yikes! Thank goodness for my NARS Laguna bronzer which I have been wearing everyday in an attempt to not look like Casper.
3. Colored eyeshadow bases- this might seem obvious to any makeup lover but I generally used to avoid colored bases or cream eyeshadows thinking that they might crease or make my eyeshadow look less smooth. Alas, I was wrong. If used under a good eyeshadow primer, colored bases can really make you powder shadows POP and add a new dimension to them that they wouldn't have all on their own.
4. Girl talk- Good ole coffee with the girls will cheer me up any day. Whether its to vent about work, gossip, talk about boys or shoes (or perhaps more intellectual topics), a good girl talk is sometimes a necessary part of my week.
Drab:
1. Winter- ugggggghhhhh I am SO sick of winter! I live in a particularly cold area and have been having a bad case of the winter blues as of late. I can't wait to see the snow melt and some flowers pop out of my garden :)
2. Dry skin- this goes hand in hand with winter and I don't know what i would do without some good moisturizers come this time of year. I am particularly loving Lush massage bars as a body lotion and my favorite Jamieson Naturals Vitamin E day cream for my face.
3. My eyebrows- They haven't changed much in a very long time (I never did buy in to the super skinny brow trends) but lately I have been obsessing about my eyebrows, wishing they were more symmetrical, had higher arches, were more defined, I could go on and on. But really there is not much I can do besides groom them, fill them in as well as I can and try to live with them. I mean they are only eyebrows!
Well I hope that was fun to read. Let me know what your feeling Fab or Drab about! Thanks for stopping by!
xoxo, Caitlin
