Gee, I Have Been Biz-E

I have been promising, promising, promising to tell you all about my most recent Sephora order, and by damn, I just haven't gotten it done.

So here's a quick little recap with my opinion on each product.

Sephora Lush Flush Wine Lip & Cheek Stain - Love this! This is similar to my HG lip stain, TheBalm Stainiac, but a slightly different shade. I adore the fact that it's almost a gel, as I find stains that are very liquidy like Benetint to be too watery to get good coverage. This looks fab with some sparkly gloss on top, and I adore the sponge tip applicator and see-through packaging.

Too Faced Mood Swing - Awesome! This gloss goes on clear but morphs to one of 4 pink shades depending on your mood. Being medicated and all, my moods are pretty even, but the one or two shades I've gotten have been beautiful. After the gloss wears off, I'm left with a pretty Popsicle-stained lip that I love. I just add some sparkly clear gloss.

Smashbox O-Gloss - Love the idea, but I think I like the Too Faced product better. This doesn't seem to leave a stain after the gloss wears off. I just don't think this lasts long enough.

Stila Cherry Crush Lip & Cheek Stain - Love the color, hate the packaging. I had to click the tube a bazillion times to get it started (seriously) and it's really hard to figure out how many clicks you need once you do get it started. I do love the texture and color, but the delivery spoils this one for me.

Why oh why am I an accountant? Why do I live in Podunk America? Why can't I be a beauty editor at my favorite magazine Glamour?????

You think YOU live in Podunk America? You must not remember living in Ada.

I am sorry I did not get to come North on Thursday. I will for shizzle be there on April 26th to see Chainsaw and Malan.

My date for that day is Jenn. We might make it a threesome and drag Darren along.

Lurve you!

Holy crap. I'd give that mood stuff a run for it's money. It'd probably implode.

Girl is moody. I'm just saying.

I think that you would make a fab beauty editor! The other night I was watching "Lost" and admiring their skin on that show and wondering what make-up they were using. And I thought to myself, "Hmmm...I bet that Sasha knows!" So, do you know? :P

Next time you do an order I want to get some Mood Swing. I was going to place it myself but decided I'd rather help you get free shipping!
