nars at bloomingdales

so I drug my sick self out of bed earlier this week and went to bloomingdales (because there is one walking distance from our hotel and I have never been to one).  after browsing the store, I found myself at the nars counter drawn to their new holiday collection.  after reviewing all the goodies I decided on the brousse eyeshadow duo and the trounda velvet lip pencil.  as the salesgirl was ringing me up she said that I was just $20 away from a free nars lipgloss trio.  never one to turn away a free gift I went back to the holiday collection to see what else I needed.  the nice salesgirl suggested that I get the eurydice eyeshadow duo and since I had been eyeing it as well, I went with her advice.  so all in all it was a great first trip to bloomingdales and I am sure glad that makeup travels light.

bare minerals matte

a few weeks ago I started using bare minerals matte and I have to admit I love it.  I never thought that I would find something better than MAC studio fix, but I think I have.  the coverage is great and it looks and feels fantastic on.  they say you can sleep in it, so I don't feel as guilty when I don't wash my face at night.  and perhaps one of the best things is I can buy it here in waco!
