Don't let the economy separate you from your lipstick

Have I raved enough about E.L.F.? This company sells most of their stuff at ONE DOLLAR. And yes, the stuff is pretty darn good. Here's what I got recently for $14.95 (inc. shipping!). Two liquid lipsticks (my favorites), a lip gloss, a nail polish, nail file set, a sheer foundation and two eyeshadow quads. Now here are the caveats: You must use the clear polish with the colored polish, otherwise it chips like crazy. The liquid lipstick are wonderful but pass on the mineral lipsticks, they break. The first time I went to put it on, I ended up with the lipstick in my lap. Not good.

Further, after trying the foundation it would be best for gals who didn't need too much coverage. Its quite sheer so I have to layer it on slowly. Not as good as Maybelline's Dream Mousse but excellent for the price. They also have a glimmer/shimmer foundation that would be good for evening.

Sign up for their newsletter which come almost everyday BUT you do get notified when they have sales. At a buck, if you don't like something you can toss it guilt free.

You can get them at ELF.

While I try and think up witty things to post, here's a local friend Bruce found yesterday.



Also, check out a new blog find (link at right) "Cake Wrecks", and be prepared to get cramps from laughing too hard.

What the...?

My husband called me earlier, he found gas that $2.15 a gallon. Hello?? Four months ago it was $4.79.

Ugh????
