It's so good to be bad.

Well, maybe it's not GOOD, but it sure is EASY. I had a BAD reaction to a new sunblock last weekend. Yup, you heard it, I have a sunblock allergy. It's not all sunblock, it's just some of them, and some moisturizers with sunblock, AND some makeup with sunblock. Lovely isn't it? Not quite as lovely as the rash that spread all over my face. It was itchy, dry, bumpy, scaly. You name it. The one plus to this: I found out that hydrocortozone cream works WONDERS for smoothing out the face! I could see making it a part of my so called beauty routine! I'm supposed to wear sunblock to help even out my complexion, but it doesn't agree with me. I guess the answer is to know what works, and don't try to be cute trying other stuff.

I went to Nordies today! UGH! How I wish I had a REAL job, no, make that a real career. You know ,making a salary. It's hard growing up and having responsibilities outside of buying clothes and doing school work. I wonder how people go from being babies and not taking care of themselves to having to take care of THEIR babies.

I didn't really find anything that I LOVED when I went to Nordstroms, maybe I just didn't feel GLAMOUROUS enough for the atmosphere (I still looked pretty cute, though). I did stop by MAC and picked up something form the patternmaker collection. I fell in love with the warm eyes pallet. The pictures that I saw did it NO justice! I can't wait for my eyelids to return to normal so I can use it! Shroom is a frosty whit color with a satin finish that will make an awesome highlight! Rich Symbol is this GORGEOUS bronze/amber type color that I cannot wait to dig into with a frost finish. Unsquare (with a velvet texture) is a BEAUTIFUL brown that isn't as dark as rummy, but just perfect for a neutral work eye. Equibeige is just what it sounds like and MORE. It's a beautiful beige color with lots of high impact shine. Probably a little light for me to use as a wash, but will make a lovely highlight color, especially for the inner eyes! Swimming is beautiful! I've looked at this color and ALWAYS passed it bye, but this color is the perfect addition to any green lover's collection (lustre). The last color, Shadow Lady is a deep matte purple. This will be the PERFECT plum for fall/winter. And of course, it came with it's own little brush!

Tomorrow I'm going to go to the gym and then come home and pamper myself. Deep condition and rollerset my hair. Just change things up a bit!
