Hey ladies, Beauty Blog Coalition had a software glitch over the weekend, so the current Weekly Roundup didn’t get to post on Sundays as it usually does. But here it is with lots of good beauty reading for the New Years. Also, a couple of things. Last call for the Shiseido IBUKI Eye Correcting Cream Giveaway. …
This past weekend, I discovered new Maybelline Color Tattoo Eye Crayons in a display at my local CVS. It was buried on a dark lower shelf, but somehow I happened to spot it. I picked up two shades out of 10, though I don’t think the CVS display had all 10 shades. The shades I …

I needed a quick, everyday look today, something I could do in less than 10 minutes. I wanted a light, fresh look. Also, I wanted to try out a couple of new products that have come my way: CoverGirl Outlast All-Day Primer: in a Target beauty box Make Up For Ever Smoky Extravagant Mascara: Sephora …
Today, I got my first compliment on my nails in ages. The nurse at my doctor’s office told me she loved my mani. Yes! And she thought I had my nails done professionally. Woohoo! Last night, I did my nails while watching the State of the Union address. I was in the mood for periwinkle, …
So far, old man winter hasn’t been too bad yet in New England. I say “yet” because our winter from hell last year didn’t start until the end of January. So I definitely don’t think we’ll escape from the cold and snow this year either. But I am ready. A couple of months ago, I …
MeVee Live-Streaming Video App Have you heard about the new live streaming video app, MeVee? I just learned about it myself a couple of weeks ago because it’s just rolling out now. It’s brand new, and it is so fun! What makes it different is that you stream your video live as you record. Not …
The day the new Pantone Colors of 2016 were announced, I did a quick blogpost about them. Truth be told, I wasn’t all that excited. But they have grown on me since then. Rose Quartz and Serenity are the colors of the late afternoon sky just before sunset. They are the colors captured in the …
Happy Sunday! What have you been up to? Last night we went to the movies and to a Szechuan restaurant with absolutely fabulous food! Yum-o. I can hardly wait to go back again. Check out this week’s posts from the Beauty Blog Coalition members! And if you missed my post on Friday with the gorgeous …
I hope you’re off to a good start in the new year so far! There’s no snow except the icy stuff that’s been hanging around for about 10 days on my lawn, so no complaints from me. What are you up to this weekend? We’re planning to go to a movie and try out the new …
I had my New Year’s Eve outfit, jewelry and makeup all planned out, but this year I had to pass on my plans. But I still want to share the gorgeous lipstick and lipliner that I intended to wear that night. A vampy red lipstick from The Edge Beauty. I know I’ll be wearing it …
This has been a sad, crazy week. My aunt, who was like a second mother to me after my mom died many years ago, passed away on New Year’s Day. She was one of a kind, unforgettable and irreplaceable. She wouldn’t take no for an answer, and was on occasion a pain in the neck, …
Slowly but surely, I’m making my way through Shiseido’s IBUKI skincare line. I was wondering what IBUKI meant, so I went to the Shiseido website and looked it up and also got a better understanding of the benefits of the IBUKI line. “IBUKI means “inner strength” in Japanese and this skincare collection helps correct imperfections, dryness …
For some reason, I haven’t been using gel liners for a long time. But I decided I needed to go back to a gel liner to see if I could get a smoother line on my upper lid and see if it would be easier for me to make a good looking wing. Also, I …
To me, January is skincare month. One of the most important things you can do to take care of your skin is exfoliate. Not only is it healthier for your skin to remove dead skin cells, but exfoliation helps your skincare products work better by allowing them to get absorbed into the skin. Just …
