That's great!

My skin has levelled off. It's not bad enough to actually do anything about it...it's pretty good, I shouldn't complain. Yet it never did get back to its original state.

I'm trying out Trader Joe's A Midsummer Night's Cream. (Yes, that's what it's called.) It's basically a thick hand lotion. I'm not into lotions particularly but my skin gets dry in the winter. You get a fairly large bottle for $3.19. (I'll review it in the reviews section after a few more days.)

I've just been wearing Maybelline Wet Shine "Sweet Sorbet." I had to do eyes a couple of days back so it was MAC Vapour as a wash, with Sable in a > in outer corners (I got the > notation from Kath).

Haven't felt too tempted to buy anything new. I want to save some money because what I want is going to be expensive. I'm going to get MAC Blot, finally, and possibly a MAC blush. Also I might add on another perfume. Don't know which one yet...I like Azzura, L'Interdit, Samsara... Actually there are a whole bunch that I like...L'eau d'Issey comes to mind. I like Indecence but it's too close to Organza and I prefer Organza...

Basically I take the house...Givenchy, Guerlain, Azzaro, in this case. I'll pick which one or two scents I like best from the house.

Samsara is the only one I like from Guerlain...likewise, Azzura from Azzaro. Chanel No. 5 is my fave Chanel scent (which I bought and found out I can't wear...I have to put it inside my jackets).

Givenchy, now, I like everything they make. I can't buy all of it, so I pick the top one or two scents--Organza and L'Interdit.

So really, it will come down to Samsara, L'Interdit, Azzura. I'll go try them all again. This time I'll make sure I can wear the dang thing! I already knew what Chanel No. 5 smelled like, and I used to be able to wear it, so I didn't bother putting a big patch of the stuff on...but that's a mistake.

Anyhoo and I'll see which one has the best gift set. :)
