Physicians Formula Nude Wear Glowing Nude Blush-Review

Mar7

This new Physicians Formula Nude Wear blush is a great everyday color.   The blush has Nude Wear written on it in shimmer.  The shimmer quickly wears off.  The price was $12.99 at Ulta, but I paid $7.54 as it was a buy one get one 50% off, and I had an Ulta store coupon.

The color I have is Natural and it’s a great peachy color.  My go to color before was Clinique in New Clover. With the Physicians Formula, I barely have to sponge any off.  It’s a great color for my pale complexion.  It is very natural looking and fresh.  It gives me just the right amount of color.

I like that there are four colors in the palette.  I use all the colors together, but you could easily use each color separately. Well one of the colors is a highlighter.  The blush colors are very neutral, and the packaging is adorable.

I’m really digging Physicians Formula lately, and at such a great price, I’ll be saying Buh Bye to Clinique New Clover.

So what is up with Charlotte Tilbury??

Feb26

I just got my March 2015 issue of Allure magazine, and was reading an article called “The Influencers”.  The first person profiled was Charlotte Tilbury, makeup artist of the moment. I enjoyed her story but was a bit put off by her “never being seen without makeup” comments.

I totally get that, as I look like a corpse without makeup, but I’m sure as hell not going to wear it to bed.   She said “I never go without makeup-ever”.  And that “I only take it off at night when the bathroom door is locked. Then I put it right back on and sleep in it.”

What!!?!?!?!?  I’ve been reading Allure for years, and really haven’t come across such a stupid statement.  You never want to wear your makeup to bed, especially not eye makeup.  That is the quickest way to get an eye infection.

My older (dumber) sister slept in her makeup for years.  I would always get after her about it. She was too lazy to wash her face, and thought that “well my mom has great skin, so I will too”.  Guess what dumbass sister, your skin looks like crap now smudge 2-26-15and you permanently jacked up your eyes.  My sister lives in a different state, so I didn’t see her real often.  She finally admitted some years ago that her tear ducts were permanently damaged and she had to use some sort of silicone inserts in her eyes. Yes, it was caused by years of sleeping in her mascara.

Charlotte is no spring chicken so she should know better.  I hope impressionable young woman don’t take her “never go without makeup” to heart.

 

OMG! The recruiters are coming out of the woodwork!

Feb25

I’m in the market for a new job, because the one I have now sucks balls. I have my resume up on two websites, and I swear I got at least ten calls today from recruiters.  Most of them were contract jobs. I also got five emails as well. I’ve stepped up my search as of late, as the stress is really getting to me.  Woo hoo!  I had an interview yesterday and today.

Hopefully I will have a new job very soon.  I would just love to tell my boss to go bugger herself! Except with lots more colorful language!frustrated-at-work

Who went into my closet and shrunk all of my shorts?!?!??!

Feb20

Wedding photo 1995Winter sucks.  Nothing new there.  In anticipation of our upcoming vacation out west, I tried on some of my shorts. Oh crap!  I’ve gained a few pounds over the winter, and now all of my summer clothes are too tight.  I just can’t seem to get motivated to exercise.

I was doing so well.  I lost 57 pounds five years ago, after having been overweight most of my adult life.  I gained 20 pounds back, but have maintained my weight for four years.  It is so hard to lose weight when you get older. One thing for sure, I will never be skinny, and that’s okay with me.  When you get too thin when you are older, your face gets really wrinkled. Not a look I’m going for.

One thing I would like to add for my younger followers: Don’t worry about being a bit thick. I was about 30 pounds overweight for many years, and that didn’t keep me from dating good looking guys.  It’s really all about how you carry yourself and your personality.

I married a handsome man eight years younger than me, and we are celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary this year.  It’s all about attitude!

Here’s me and my handsome hubby on our wedding day twenty years ago.

Okay, how is this even possible???

Feb18

As a middle aged woman, I’ve been watching my weight pretty much my whole life.  I recently came across a journal from when I was in high school.  I’ve been keeping track of my measurements forever.  Well I found some measurements from when I was a senior, which was a bazillion years ago. Anywho, I now weigh at least 50 pounds more than I did when I was that age, but my thighs are the same size.  How is that even possible??? Of course everything else got bigger, but apparently not my legs.  My “girls” grew quite a bit since then, but jesus, it’s not like they are stripper size or anything.  I was telling some of my friends about it and one of the gals asked what I did for exercise.  I walk about 15 miles a week on a treadmill. She said that was it, well why isn’t everything else smaller?? Damn you to hell menopause!

So NBC’s Brian Williams got suspended for six months without pay.

Feb10

I  have to say I like Brian Williams, but did he really think he could lie about events that never happened? Come on, we all lie about stuff, but most of us are not making a boatload of money to deliver the national news.

Maybe we can get NBC to start suspending all of these politicians that lie on a regular basis. Now that would be sweet.

 

Will a dent come out of your head???

Feb5

About two months ago I dented my forehead.  I was in a hurry and whacked my head on my car door. I do believe I saw some stars, and it hurt like a mother effer.  Surprisingly it didn’t bleed, and I thought for sure I would have a gusher on my hands.  No bump just a small bruise for a few days and a red line.

I didn’t notice the dent until I saw a photo of myself recently. I wear glasses and have really poor vision. But jesus, a dent in my head??? It looks like someone pressed their finger down and it stayed that way. I look like I got into a bar fight, and got the crap beat out of me. I know scars add character, but I do believe I have filled my quotient.

Should I be worried? I’ve never had a dent before.  Is this what it truly means to be old?? Hell, I’m only 56, and was dent free prior to this.  Sure I have some pox marks on my forehead from when I had chicken pox as a kid, but I wear bangs so you really can’t see them.  But this dent is huge. WTF!?!?!?!

If anyone knows of how I can get rid of it, please let me know. Maybe I could try some Silly Putty as filler. Dented forehead 2-5-15 Do they make flesh colored spackle?

Um, that’s not hair conditioner honey

Feb1

My husband has been having some dry hair issues lately, so he’s been trying some of my hair products.  Since I have a beauty supply store under my sink, he has quite an assortment to choose from.

jergensnaturalglowjpg-1326534be85dfe9f_medium 1-31-15When I was taking a shower today I noticed some Jergen’s Natural Glow self-tanner in the shower.  I’m like WTF!?!?!? Apparently hubby just saw the word moisturizer and thought it was ok to use. I got a good early morning chuckle out of that one.

Really dog of mine, really????

Jan28

I’m lounging here on the couch, minding my own business, and the dog proceeds to piss on the curtains. Just a few feet away from where I am sitting. I saw him nosing around and told him to scram.  I guess he showed me. Little f*%ker!!!!!!!

Thank god for Nature’s Miracle!  If you have a pet, you gotta try this stuff! It really works for pet accidents.012
