High up on my list of things to do this weekend: 1) pluck my brows and 2) paint my nails.
This morning I found one of those scary long stray hairs sprouting out of my left eyebrow that just sort of showed up today like a mushroom, BAM! If it gets any longer, I’ll be able to wrap it ’round my finger.
Oh, but look at that — my nails,Coach Outlet Stores, they’re not much better. We’re talkin’ chip city.
I plucked and painted early last week, but somewhere between here and Kauai,MAC Make-Up Art Cosmetics Face of the Day with the Notoriety Quad, all hell broke loose.
Needless to say, I’ve got some beauty catching up to do, and I’m starting this weekend with the three Le Vernis Nail Polishes from the new Summer de Chanel ($26 each; available now at Chanel counters and chanel.com).
Have you peeped this launch in person yet? It’s pretty hot. Every year, I look forward to Chanel’s (almost always) fabulous summery shades. Thirteen toasty bronzes, pinks, corals, peaches and golds for eyes, lips, cheeks,coach outlet online, faces and nails, all inspired by our very own celestial sol-mate, our great giver of warmth in the sky, the sun!
After these swatches,On the Road Again With the Bobbi Brown Rose Shimmer Brick, a Traveling Semi-Exclusive, I’m still undecided as to which colors to wear on my fingers and toes, but I know this much: barely three days back from Hawaii, and I’m already itching for another seaside vacation.
Something about these colors is speaking to me, and I think it’s saying, “Amalfi…”
Italy’s Amalfi Coast
I can see it now… I’m walking down a cobblestone street in a crisp white linen dress, peer down at my toes and see Holiday, a creamy reddish orange, peeking out from my gold, t-strap flats. I stop and buy a fresh lemonade from a street vendor, wrap my fingers around the paper cup and see Delight, a shimmery bronze, shining on my fingertips.
I guess that’s it for my weekend mani/pedi then. Delight on my fingers and Holiday on my toes.
Oh, but what about Island, the third shade? Granted, it’s not as flashy as Delight and Holiday,Cheap Jerseys, but it’s not your run of the mill pearly peachy beige either. Every so often it has a subtle flash of pink.
I applied two coats for each of these swatches, but I probably could have gotten by with one. That’s how pigmented these are.
Delight is probably the thickest of these three, but I wouldn’t call any of them thick. I’d say they’re thinner than NARS nail polishes, but thicker than China Glaze.
You’re super,coach factory outlet online, moon!Have you heard about the supermoon? It’s the biggest, baddest, brightest moon of the year,Cheap NFL Jerseys, a coincidence of a full moon (or a new moon) with the closest approach the Moon makes to the Earth on its elliptical orbit, or perigee.
Tomorrow’s the big night, the actual full moon, but I just walked outside to take a look, and the moon’s already looking pretty pumped up tonight.
What are your plans for Saturday and Sunday? I hope they involve something fun.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
