A few quick, meaningless ramblings here....
I've almost UEU'd my MAC Viva Glam V lipstick. It is down to that particular sliver...the one that happens right before you actually use up the thing. I should mention that I don't use lip brushes, so I don't dig out the stub that's left once it's worn down to the metal. The first time it becomes uncomfortable to use, I consider it UEU'd.
My plan is to start using MAC Sophisto next...and then Hamlet for a few months lol In some odd, lipstick-junkie way, I'm tempted not to repurchase VGV, to try something else instead. But I know that I've fallen in love with VGV. A repurchase is inevitable. I'd like to UEU Sophisto...I like Sophisto. After that though, I think I will make VGV my one and only lipstick, my signature lipstick, the lipstick.
Mmmm...I've replaced my lipstick case. I like the Thai ones. I got a new one from Chinatown recently...they had Thai silk everything in that shop, from passport cases to jewelry rolls to this, that and the other (I didn't have time to look through everything, unfortunately). I got two lipstick cases: a beautiful deep orange-toned red one, and an off-blue one. I was going to keep the red one and give the blue one to my daughter. As soon as she saw them though, she decided the red one was hers, so I'm using the blue one.
Finally figured out what to do with MAC Heirloom Eye Kohl, or why it never worked for me before. I have to wear it with green, grey, or blue eye colors. That is where it works its magic. It's tranformative there, it adds something that you don't see, but suddenly green eyes look greener. Fascinating....
Thanks for reading!
