I know that I am posting this a lot sooner than usual but I don't care. I have a few new favorites and I just feel like posting about them! HEHE.

Currently Watching....

Who's Line Is It Anyway?

AND

Gilmore Girls

 Okay so yea this is rerun city but idc. I used to watch Who's Line when I was still in HIGH SCHOOL if I made it to stay up passed 10 PM when it used to come on back in the day. Now it comes on ABC Family at Midnight and when I remember to catch it, I do. It still makes me laugh my ASS off to this day. As for the Gilmore Girls, I never watched this show when it was actually on TV, but lately I have been catching random episodes on SoapNET and I really liked it. THEN the other day I went to Target and they had the entire season (except season TWO, very random) on sale for $7.99 each! So I bought them and now I'm hooked! Can't stop watching!!!!

Currently Showering With....

AND

Oh good lord. I was recently a mystery shopper at my local Lush, and got a $50.00 gift card for my volunteering services. I bought this two things with my gift card, along with the Almond & Coconut Smoothie, and I love them all....but these two SMELL amazing, and I have never gotten so much sudsy soap out of body washes before. The Shower Jelly is so cool, I've never used anything like it. Unfortunately, both of these things are seasonal. Hmmm...I may need to stock up later!

Makeup School!

Well, I finally did it. I took advantage of QC Makeup Academy's Black Friday deal and enrolled today!

I chose the Master Makeup Artistry program. I am so excited, I can't wait to get started!

I hope that doing something I love much more often will brighten my days more. Hopefully once I start up on the manicuring program after the holidays I will be able to really make all of this a career. They say if you are doing something you love, it usually pays off in more ways than one, right?

I sure hope so!

Beauty Tip Alert!

Last night I was browsing the web for the best eye makeup remover that won't irritate my apparently sensitive eye area.

Here's my story: Awhile ago I had a major problem with my eyelids becoming flaking and dry. I wasn't sure if it was the eye cream I was using at the time, or my primer, or whatever. They weren't itchy, just annoyingly flaky and dry. I had been faithfully using Sonia Kushuk's Remove Eye Makeup Remover because it was oil free, gentle and fragrance free as well. It just felt fresh on the skin. I probably used about 5 bottles of the stuff in all.

I then decided a few months ago that I was going to switch to Clinique for my skincare system, and after using these products for months on end I discovered that they were really doing nothing for my skin, but enough of that. That's off topic. I used up a tube of their Naturally Gentle Eye Makeup Remover and I did like this product because it was a lotion, not a liquid. HOWEVER...all the rubbing I was doing literally ripped off half of my eyelashes on my left eye. It looks like someone took scissors to them. So let's just say I did not want to repurchase it.

Fast forward to a couple weeks ago. I went and repurchased my old faithful Sonia Kushuk remover and began using it again and GUESS WHAT happened: Flaky, dry eyelids again! I had found the culprit of my eyelid problem. Hence my internet search last night.

And HERE IS WHAT I discovered....DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN:

OLIVE OIL!!!!

Yes, ladies & germs - this stuff really works! I used it last night and I shall never purchase eye makeup remover again. It's gentle, natural and has no fillers. Just wanted to share this lovely tip with you all!
