Salud, Kids!
As you know, Google experienced a few problems several weeks ago and I dashed over to WordPress and cranked out some blogs. Fine, fine-but I missed the comfort of blogger, so I'm back. Yep, just like that bad penny. Incidentally, who knows why a penny is bad? Just wondering.
Not bad are some new (to me) products, so let's yammer about my Target treasureS, what do you say? As I can not hear you through my computer, I am just going to ASSume (you know how THAT saying goes) that you agree.
Take a gander at your skin and ask yourself if it is sun-kissed. No? Forget the damaging rays of the sun (also, forget that I am looking out onto the shimmering rays in the Sunshine State) and grab a bottle of Nivea, Sun-Kissed Radiant Skin-promising a gradual tan.
My fair skin and I eschew the real sun during peak hours, but my cotton-ball colored legs look ridiculous in shorts. Therefore, at certain times of the year I dabble in fakery (don't say I do that all year!).
Perusing the lotions and potions at Target last week I spied Nivea lotion looking all promising and I could not resist, so off I went with the little dear. To be honest it is a fairly decent product, thus far. I have been using it every other day on legs and arms and I see no signs of orange. Yet. The shade of cotton is dimming and I like that. Have you guys tried any of these products? What were the results?
Kids, I have used eye shadow for more years than I am going to tell in this blog, but I believe I have hit upon eye shadow perfection. Well, for dummies at least. Don't even say what you are thinking at that comment.
May I present; L'Oreal, The One Step Sweep! I would prefer to call it what it REALLY is-Eye Shadow Application For Dummies. Seriously, have you seen this stuff? Even the sponge is shaped like an eyelid. Genius!
Here's the deal-you swipe the sponge applicator across the powder, then across your eyelid. Perfect! Every single time. No need to try and figure out where to put the lighter shade and darker shade...they're done it for you!
Take a look at how they have layered the colors. Making up your eyes has reached a new level of sophistication if you ask me. And, why wouldn't you?
Now, if only they would come up with a way for me to apply foundation and blush in one swift flick of the applicator.
Forget Sephora, I gotta go back to Target and see what else is new.
Send me your suggestions.
See ya 'round the beaches.
I love browsing the make up offerings at Tar-ge't...some are quite good...there is a #5 line from UK...as well as a few other up and coming companies....plus, if you don't like it...Target takes it back...they have a money back guarantee!
ReplyDeleteAs for self tanners...Couldn't live without them... None of them give you that odd orangey color that they used too...and since the sun is far too damaging to lay out in...even if it wasn't, I just burn and peel!
Self tanners give you a radiant look for summer and for some reason they make me feel thinner!
That reminds me...need to go start my weekend tan now!
