Double Damn

Okay, I want to know the marketing genius who invented Sephora's "Send 3 Samples With Every Order!" Sephora better have paid them a fat freakin' bonus (i.e. not the Jelly of the Month club OR Von Maur goose plate). The accountant/MBA dork in me REALLY wants to know if they track, by customer, the samples the customer selected and if the customer ended up ordering the full-size product after testing the samples.


OK, I know I just got the YSL. Seriously, I know this. But I cannot LIVE without Stella McCartney's Stella perfume that was shipped to me in sample size with Benefit's Bad, Bad Gal-friend mascara from yesterday's blog.


Sigh.... I'm going to think about it for a couple of days (against my will) because it does totally reminds me of Beautiful Sheer but still different because it doesn't time-warp me back to Paris 2004. Yum! Pretty sure this is a MUST HAVE.


Much love!

P.S. I blame Emilene for turning me to the darkside of fragrance whoreing. I was only mildy fragrance whoreish before that!

Bad, Bad Gal-friend

Apologies for the hiatus. My friends and I suffered a major loss last week that made makeup blogging seem insanely ridiculous so I just couldn't do it. We'll forever be changed and there is really no way to go on livin' life except to just slowwwwly go back to normal.



Back at it...


The lovely blog title is in reference to my friend Molly's favorite song "Bad Girlfriend," by Theory of a Deadman. It's for sure a pretty kick-ass song and I hate all rock except Classic Rock. Oh... and Marilyn Manson. And Poison. ~ANYWAY~




Upon C.'s recommendation, I ordered the Benefit Cosmetics Bad Gal Lash ($19). We all know my severely unhealthy mascara obsession. This a.m., after using the Bad Gal, my eyes went from being all sunken-in, squinty, tequila-sunrise to hello, Oceans 11. It is awwwwwwwwesome with a big fat brush!!!! After you put on tons of coats, you can run up the tip of each lash with the tip of the brush. Hellllllo, FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!! This is a must have. It's everything DiorShow wishes it was plus more :)


Much love!
Ann
