Sawing logs. That’s what my pal Jen’s new baby young boy was doing during our check out yesterday while I marveled at his tiny fingers and toes. He’s just about two weeks old now, so his primary pastimes involve sleeping, eating and posing for pictures (he takes after his Auntie Karen!).
Rise and shine, morning glory. It’s going to be a stunning day.

Available in 12 shades of long-wearing pink, plum, orange, red and purple, these pigmented pretties may cost a bit much more than MAC’s regular lipsticks ($17 U.S./$20 CDN versus $14.50 U.S./$17.50 CDN), but if you like creamy, pigmented lipsticks that latch onto lips and won’t let go, they deliver that much and a whole lot more.

CHANEL LES jeans DE CHANEL
AT least THESE jeans always FIT
Creamy Blue Rebel, the darkest of the three limited edition blue nail polishes that comprise Les jeans de Chanel, is my favorite of the three, and like its two siblings — Coco Blue (a sky blue with subtle shimmer) and young boy Blue (a creamy denim) — it dries to a beautiful high-shine finish. I’ve been using three coats to achieve full opacity with Coco Blue and young boy Blue but only need two coats for full opacity with Blue Rebel.
All three of these shades speak to my soul, but the angels aren’t singing in the same way they did for Vendetta, Riva and Jade. Les mer…
I’D like TO KISS THE creator OF THESE
MAC pro LONGWEAR LIP PENCILS
In the summer before my freshman year of high school, my pal Nancy taught me how to kiss.
I hadn’t had a sweetheart yet but figured I ought to probably prepare myself before school started, just in case. Nancy, having dated a young boy earlier that year, was my closest pal with the suitable experience, so on our breaks during the algebra class we took together that summer, Nancy dispensed various pearls of kissing wisdom like, 1) eat grape lollipops before kissing to freshen the breath (according to Nancy, they worked better than breath mints), and 2) Observe proper gum etiquette (gum ought to not change owners during a make-out session).

GOING THE distance WITH THE
MAC STYLEDRIVEN pro LONGWEAR EYE SHADOWS
Pigment. Som. Whoa.
Jeg er seriøs. These new MAC pro Longwear Eye shadows ($20 U.S./$24 CDN each) from the MAC Styledriven collection, like the pro Longwear lip products we looked at last week, are built to throw down.
With potent pigments, a downy soft texture and an easy-to-blend formula, these powder eyeshadows look and feel to me like muscled up MAC permanent shadows in the Veluxe Pearl finish (picture Woodwinked but even cooler). Les mer…

MAC ART OF POWDER
PERFECTS THE ART OF SUBTLETY
How does that song go again — “These boots heels aren’t implied for walking, because that’s not what they do”?
Something like that… You know what kind of heels I’m talking about. many of us have at least one pair in our closet. Heels that look terrific on the shelf but hurt like hell when you take much more than a few steps in ‘em.
Don’t tell El Hub (shhh!), but I, uh, have a few heels like that in my closet. I call them my “look but don’t touch” shoes. stunning to look at, but they’re completely useless attached to a pair of feet. Les mer…
