Hey! I just changed the page footers. I don't know if I like it yet. I wanted to get a sort of rough, typewriter feel to it. Not just a typewriter; a manual typewriter. The kind with a black and red ribbon.

Hum. I think the whole thing will have to look typewritery, in order for it to work. i.e. not mixing in HTML stuff at all. Back to the drawing board. :)

L'Oreal shadows are okay. I don't know what happened to Jane. I've heard Milani is the new Jane. :) I have a Milani blush duo, "Wine and Roses," that I got to use as eyeshadow. It's too bright for me but, I can't complain about the quality. The staying power is excellent, it's well pigmented, it's nice and smooth. Hence--the new Jane, now that Jane ain't Jane any more.

My Organza (reg., not Indecence) did change over time. It got better. There was a long period where I hardly wore it. I tried it...it smelled kinda awful, like old perfume, the first time. I think some of the perfume gets trapped in the pipe and turns on you. The second time I wore it, it smelled like old times. Now I swear it smells better than when I bought it...softer, subtler.

Indecence is really heady. I love it though. It's very complex. Maybe you just need a break from it. Bring it out when the weather gets kind of nippy.

Weeeeelllll...sometimes you just have to go nuts. You have to buy to try. Again, maybe it's well to step back and take a break. When you haven't seen the stuff for a while, take it out and play with it again.

If you're like me, you'll feel morally obligated to make something work...which usually leads to putting too much of the stuff on, which typically makes it look crappy. Try a lighter touch...you never know.

Hummm...on second thought, that Ecco Bella Peach Frost of mine is dry. Well it kept a good year and a half, maybe longer. I'm going to bring it to the MAC counter and see if I can find something similar.

That will be my "conservative" lippy. I won't worry about the glamor one until my Delish craps out.
