NYX Cosmetics

I am so excited! My friend Lola has been selling NYX makeup for a while now. I keep wanting to buy something from her. I see other friends of ours that buy stuff from her. The quality seems so good. But I am not really a big makeup person. And I very rarely get out of my comfort zone of neutral colors. But I called Lola last week and ordered a few things from her.

I got my package in the mail yesterday. It was a nice surprise to see it when I got home! I didn't stray from my neutral colors. But I did buy a couple of things that I absolutely love!

I got the Doll Eyes Mascara in Extreme Black. In waterproof. I love the way my lashes look today with this on!

I also got 2 trios. The first is TS27. The colors are Platinum Pink, Salmon, and Jazzy Bronze. All really nice pink colors.

The second is TS3. I kind of don't like that the trios don't have names. But oh well. These colors are Nude, Taupe, and Dark Brown. I am wearing this today.

I also bought 2 blushes. This is PB19 Nutmeg. A very pretty color!


The second is PB02 Dusty Rose. This is beautiful. It gives me a "glow" effect. I can see this as being my favorite blush from now on!

The last 2 products are lip products. Lola wears this beautiful color when her makeup is natural. I ask her what it was. Well, it is a lip pencil and a lipgloss.

The lip pencil is SPL831 Mauve. This picture shows it as a dark color. But it is real neutral. A little pink. On me it is just a little nicer than my lip color.


And lastly, I bought a Goddess of the Night lipgloss in LG122 Natural. A very pretty pink color. The 2 together just make a perfect color.

I am definitely going to be buying more from Lola. These products are very nice for the price. I spent about $25 on 7 products. The colors and textures are amazing! I use makeup from the drugstore and the department store. This makeup comes at prices from the drugstore, with department store quality. ♥

Glee

Did anyone happen to watch the show Glee tonight? It comes out on FOX. Here it came out at 8PM.

It was hilarious! Robert was working, so I was a little bored. And just surfing through the channels. Hoping to find something to watch. And I stumbled on Glee as it was starting. I think it is a funny show. It could be one of my favorite new shows of the season! It had me laughing the entire time.

And the music, oh the music! It brought back so many memories of my youth. I could seriously remember dancing to Push It! I even called my brothers so they could watch it. I think at first, they thought I was crazy. But according to my sisters-in-law, they both enjoyed it.

Even more hilarious, Ava and Tabi both liked it too! I read it on their twitter pages! If you want to laugh, you should watch next week! I know I am going to! ♥

I Joined Twitter

I have a few friends on twitter. They are all busy with life. And living away from here. A couple of times a week, I check their twitter pages to see what they are busy doing. For a little while, I have secretly wanted my own account. Tonight I signed up. Robert got called into work. And I found myself a little bored. I caught up on my blog reading. Then went to twitter. After reading through Lola's and Sara's pages, I figured, why not. And I signed up. I hope to have some fun keeping up with my friends! ♥

A Good Lunch Date

Today Stephanie and I met for lunch. Robert went golfing with Enzo and Mike. They all needed that! The hospital has been a little crazy lately. I figured I would catch up with Stephanie. She has been so busy with her new job, that we haven't really seen each other all summer. I still can't believe how big Kristina is. At the last minute, Kristina's sitter called and canceled. So Steph brought her to lunch. She is already 16 months old! Wow, it just seems like yesterday that she was born.

Steph seems really happy. She is dating a nice guy. He seems to be very loving to both Steph and Kristina. I am glad. They both deserve a good guy. And her new job sounds like the answer to her prayers. There is even a daycare on site. Steph likes that because she gets to eat lunch with Kristina. And they are moving. The new house is a 3 bedroom. Much better than the 1 bedroom that they now live in.

It was just a fun afternoon. We went the Macaroni Grill. Kristina had a blast coloring the tablecloth. I have to admit that I did too! The food was so good! I am still stuffed. And after our 2 hour lunch and dessert, I had strawberry cheesecake. We went to Toys-R-Us. I just had to buy Kristina something. We all decided on a small Cabbage Patch Kid. It is really too cute! And just the right size for Kristina to carry around.

I am glad we could meet today. It was nice for the soul. And although the beginning of our friendship was less than desirable, I am glad that we are friends. The one thing, that once tied us together so long ago, is no longer a factor for either one of us. We are just left with an amazing friendship and precious Kristina. ♥
