I'm baa-aack! That was a terrible, college long break from my glorious blogosphere. Anyways, is anyone as obsessed with Jennifer Lawrence as I am? From Mystique, to Katniss, to Tiffany in <i>Silver Linings Playbook</i>, this girl has got it all. She completely deserved that gold man on Oscar night. Her performance with B. Coop was so raw and beautiful. She's one of those people that doesn't care what others think of them. To top it all off, she is hilarious! Wow, sorry for the major girl crush going on right now.<br />

This kick-ass 22 year old's first dress was a dashing Dior. I loved how simple and elegant it was, paired with her classy middle finger. I feel as though it wouldn't have been a proper Jennifer Lawrence production if she <i>hadn't</i> tripped while getting her award. It was almost like Lena Dunham's shameful walk in heels at the Globes. They're too busy being amazing actresses to be truly concerned with their public images. You won't see these two on a reality TV show any time soon! Lena is a whole 'nother girl crush I will touch upon later. Back to J.Law, I secretly was hoping that that gown was for a surprise red carpet wedding with Bradley Cooper..<br />

I've been very M.I.A. lately because of school work yada-yada, my apologies! However, no amount of studying could stop me from informing/venting to you about my latest discovery. As you know, I have problematic skin.. sad-face, but whatevs, over it! I am so drugged up on acne medicine that I no longer have to worry about new zits every day. Okay, okay, the occasional MONTHLY breakout of about one or two pimples does occur.<br />
<br />
BUT -- when my skin starts randomly erupting with the Rocky Mountains and spreads across my entire face?!?!!?!! There must be an outside variable responsible for this nonsense!<br />
<br />
Enter the unspeakable.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW_66yYAV9jOU5j4u-3TzhVeeXhLFiP9muc-NaDwFHP4B7hfTngOJXl2yLTCR8vqchsbF6rtDL5goF_jmHmk1k5kGKhSlc7MCrQkeGRMxUbQlt4c4yT_2fZyzADWGBoXWwd4bvNFERmaA/s1600/001711.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW_66yYAV9jOU5j4u-3TzhVeeXhLFiP9muc-NaDwFHP4B7hfTngOJXl2yLTCR8vqchsbF6rtDL5goF_jmHmk1k5kGKhSlc7MCrQkeGRMxUbQlt4c4yT_2fZyzADWGBoXWwd4bvNFERmaA/s400/001711.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
<br />
No, not my atrocious under-eye circles. My beloved Bare Escentuals :'( ...the horror. I'm a die-hard Bare Minerals junkie because their foundation doesn't irritate my acne. I just recently started using their Mineral Veil to keep my skin shine-free during the hot weather. Alas, two weeks later and I'm noticing the acne starting to form. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">So I looked at the ingredients -- CORN STARCH. Such a no-no. Cheap filler alert! Corn starch is a <a href="http://www.cosmeticscop.com/product_review.aspx?pid=2287&tid=202&product=The+Body+Shop+All+in+One+Face+Base&filter=itemtype%3acontent">breeding ground</a> for bacteria when it gets moist. No freakin' bueno. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">So acne-prone babies beware.. I know I personally will be getting rid of this product. Shine-free skin is not worth the underlying zits! I wouldn't be putting the blame so harshly if it was normal for me to break out this badly. Le sigh.. that is the unfortunate DL.</div>Kelseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05195761034839931777noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7105517704539096457.post-4408641238931372382011-08-06T09:32:00.000-07:002011-08-06T09:33:52.503-07:00Drugstore Steal -- Milani Liquid EyelinerHi babies! So as you may or may not know, I work at Ulta. Hence, I am surrounded with high quality, beautiful makeup each and every day. If I had my way, I would buy every product that BareMinerals and Smashbox have on the shelf. However, *le sigh* broke college student. Lower quality it is!<br />
<br />
Despite my discount at Ulta, I am like a magnet when it comes to the makeup aisles at drugstores. It's fun for me. It's like digging for buried treasure, I know there must be a good product in there somewhere! The risky buys are always the liquid eyeliners -- you never know what you're gonna get. My best friend just bought an E.L.F. liquid eyeliner. She took it out of package, and it was already dried out! Worst one dollar bill she's ever spent I'm sure ;)<br />
<br />
Well guess what babies?! I struck gold at CVS!<br />
<br />

Ready for a cool, bohemian trend for summertime? Feather hair extensions! I'm bursting with excitement because I just got mine done last week.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgj9O2PwlW1YAHrU3145FphDKBU79D-QeMuGk1KRVU_Rg0DQSMDH47M_f0Og1CYhaVVhHV77fDcZ3_v-jrKaEQcl-qH9R59EH8phsyqxMLBLqRHawi90GkFKPTuY4pHhYQqogTKkwI2OMk/s1600/feather.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgj9O2PwlW1YAHrU3145FphDKBU79D-QeMuGk1KRVU_Rg0DQSMDH47M_f0Og1CYhaVVhHV77fDcZ3_v-jrKaEQcl-qH9R59EH8phsyqxMLBLqRHawi90GkFKPTuY4pHhYQqogTKkwI2OMk/s400/feather.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">You have options of getting natural/colored and chunky/thin. I got two chunky natural feathers (only one is showing) at my hair salon for $12 each! The best part is you can straighten them, curl, or wash, and they're totally fine. The hair stylist said they last for about a month or so. Perfect for the last few weeks before school starts! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I actually want to get more soon.. I'm a feather addict, oh no! Check out Jen Love Hewitt lookin' so fly with her colored feathers! ;)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">DISCLAIMER : My hair stylist let me know that for the bleach blondies out there (aka me) the colored feathers can actually bleed onto your hair!

<br />
This is the only picture I could find that showed it, because I don't think he was wearing it in the other movies. Fail HP7 makeup artist, total fail. But I still love him by the end of that film! No spoilers though, don't worry.<br />
<br />
It's so awkward once you notice it. Poor Snape-y.<br />

I love Tarte in general because of their natural products and silky texture, but I'm ADDICTED to True Blood! Uhm, who else is in love with Eric this season?! Cutest vamp EVER, I'm so glad they gave him a haircut! Bill is making me mad lately, let's talk about last episodes "incest"! Ugh. Anyways, back to the makeup!<br />
<br />
Tarte is launching three products, and they're in Ulta's backroom right now!<br />
<br />

<u>Tarte for True Blood Limited Edition Palette</u> - $52<br />
The packaging feels leathery and those corset strings are real -- yes I held it in my hands, eeeek! The names of the eyeshadows are the best too. The Light, Fairy, Dusk, Dawn, Werewolf, Waitress, Nocturnal, Charmer, Glamour Me, Stake, Bayou, Telepath, The True Death, Immortal, Moss, Legend, and "V." "V" is my favorite, a dark red of course! It also comes with an eye primer, black liner, and mascara. Swoon.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://a248.g.akamai.net/7/248/8278/20110625030408/www.sephora.com/assets/dyn/product/P290211/P290211_hero.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><u>Tarte for True Blood Limited Edition Natural Cheek Stain</u> - $30</div><div style="text-align: left;">Big Surprise! It's red! And sparkly (how Twilight-y). Tarte's cheek stains are VERY good if you want that dewy look because they have a lot of moisture in them. You can just dab this baby on the apples of your cheeks and blend a little -- Voila! I would definitely wear this for a sweet, summer look with my tan -- or to liven up a dull, winter complexion. Tres cute. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://omgeemag.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/tarte-for-true-blood-lip.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><u>Tarte for True Blood Limited Edition LipSurgence Natural Lip Tint</u> - $24</div><div style="text-align: left;">Mmm, minty and moisturizing! This lip tint is in a crayon form, so it's super easy to apply to your lips. Again, red and sparkly. I'm a little obsessed lately with red lips (that and purple!) so this product is on my wish list! One of the best things about Tarte is that it doesn't have fragrance, parabens, or phthalates. Au naturale, just like the chemistry between Eric and Sookie! </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

After a long M.I.A. session of summer school and starting work, I'm back to dish out the latest down low :} Now, when I look for a lip color, I want something that will last! I hate having to reapply, reapply, reapply -- especially if I'm at work. Can't there be a lipstick that stays all day!? Or at least longer than half an hour?<br />
<br />
Presenting, LIP STAINS! Now, I'm sure you have heard of these products which tint your lips for a long period of time. The question is, which ones actually work and which ones are crap? HelloOo, not trying to buy something that doesn't do the job! Have no fear lovies! Here are the products to stash.. and ones you can trash.<br />
<br />
We'll start with the ones to leave for the garbage men.<br />
<u>TRASH</u><br />
<u><br />
</u><br />
<u><img src="http://www.askdenisa.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/covergirl-outlast-lipstain1.jpg" /></u><br />
<a href="http://www.covergirl.com/beauty-products/lip-makeup/lip-color/outlast-lipstain">CoverGirl Outlast Lipstain</a> - $7<br />
Crap if I've ever seen it! Okay, I actually bought this product hoping that it would deliver the lovely stain that it advertises. Uhm, no. Firstly, the color lasts about.. hmm.. twenty minutes? That doesn't sound very stain-y to me! Okay, so I could use it as a lip color even if it doesn't last, right? Wrong. It applies like a marker, which is awesome, but it leaves my lips so blotchy! The pigment settles in certain spots so it looks like I have dots all over my lips. And this is after like five minutes. Politely discard.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://www.audreydao.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/benefit-benetint1.jpg" /><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod820420">Benefit Benetint</a> - $28.00<br />
Don't get me wrong, Benefit is a great brand. Love their products. But Benetint? And it's lighter sister, <a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?skuId=2163861&productId=xlsImpprod820376&navAction=push&navCount=1">Posietint</a>, too.. crap. Benetint delivers a pretty berry color, but the consistency is all wrong. It's too watery, so you have to keep layering it to get any color. Then, when it's actually applied, it comes off after you rub your lips a few times. Believe me, I've tried wearing it during my shifts at work. So disappointing. I like it much better as a cheek tint, but this is not a post on cheek tints! Sorry, Benetint, you didn't make the cut.<br />
<br />
And now for the keepers.<br />
<u>STASH</u><br />
<u><br />
</u><br />
<u><img src="http://www.smashbox.com/core/media/media.nl?id=38241&c=665937&h=4e8d5833e463391216db" /></u><br />
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?skuId=2229801&productId=xlsImpprod3250025&navAction=push&navCount=1&categoryId=cat80062">Smashbox Limitless Lip Stain</a> - $23.00<br />
This is by far the best lip stain I've ever tried. I put it on every day before my 6 hour shift and it seriously lasts almost the whole time. It comes in six shades. I wear Guava, a coral-orange color. It's great because it applies like a marker (so it's easy), and then the opposite end is a tinted lip balm to keep your lips moisturized. I like to experiment with layering different lip glosses on top too!<br />
<br />
Here's my testimony -<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjY1NuvxH-Gy5CWgQsmaGKBodjpi2b04gTiySDLpcdGlJbWdGaIQC4gaRex-S8UV3COzbQBXLRO6ut3MWF48a2VfMlKDT-HwkI9SazyweORBEcqL_e3wLShLkSF347c_LcZmiCmpUvA-wE/s1600/211502.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjY1NuvxH-Gy5CWgQsmaGKBodjpi2b04gTiySDLpcdGlJbWdGaIQC4gaRex-S8UV3COzbQBXLRO6ut3MWF48a2VfMlKDT-HwkI9SazyweORBEcqL_e3wLShLkSF347c_LcZmiCmpUvA-wE/s400/211502.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">STILL on my hand from showing customers the different shades. After hand sanitizers, brush cleaners, and tissue wiping -- this lip stain is no joke! Yes, it's a splurge for us cheap-y's who stick with drug-store makeup. However, I feel like it's well worth the money because you don't have to keep reapplying! I'm definitely considering this for my next pay check. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">DISCLAIMER - make sure that you store the marker tip facing downward, because it will dry out faster when it's facing up. </div><br />
Love you all xo!<br />

Giving this travesty a new name and hoisting it up higher on the waist does NOT change the fact that THEY'RE TRYING TO BRING BACK FANNY PACKS!<br />
<br />

</div>Gag-aroni and cheese. First, they tell me that these "flatforms" are all the rage. Platform sandals? Really? Alright, they were pretty cool when I was nine and imitating Baby Spice. But FANNY PACKS?! No. In the name of fashion, I would rather carry one of those heinous bags that were shaped like corsets!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.marital--aids.com/2645-3730-large/corset-purse-black.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Uh huh. That's saying something.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Just say no to the belt purse. And someone tell these fashion designers to chill with the 90's trends! What's next -- biker shorts?!</div><br />

Okay so, not gonna lie, I'm not a huge fan of bright colors on my face. However, after <a href="http://makeupdownlow.blogspot.com/2011/05/peacock-shadow.html">peacock</a> turquoise wasn't lookin' too bad, I decided to start experimenting!

</div><div style="text-align: center;">For a more casual look, I'll probs skip the lime green and just wear the turquoise as liner with the coral blush. Ohhh-kay, and the lips too :) why not, right?

Ever since she switched places with a man in <u>The Hot Chick</u>, and bitched out Li-Lo in <u>Mean Girls</u>, it's been adoration nonstop. But did anyone spot Rach at the premiere of her latest flick, <u>Sleeping Beauty</u>?<br />
<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Rach looks SO fetch in her Monique Lhuillier high-waisted pants and sequined corset. Way to divert from the gown norm with this feminine take on menswear! She tops off the nude look with a Ferragamo clutch and a shiny pile of diamond bracelets. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> I also love how she embraces her natural skin tone. Bronzing pressures are on the rise (AHEM, Pippa Middleton), but Rach is cool and collected with her blonde hair and fair skin. This gives me hope that one day I'll stop slathering on the tanning lotion and opt for some bright red lipstick to give me my glow!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I'm still happily kissin' my beau every day, but I have a good friend who just dumped her guy. :( Whether you're the dumper or the dumped, breaking up sucks! Especially, when you're driving in the car by yourself and THAT song comes on that reminds you of him.<br />
<br />
Girl, we've all been through it.<br />
<br />
Luckily, I've compiled a list of perfect "Screw-you-go-me-girl-power" songs that can turn that sadness into anger! Just kidding ;) But seriously.. sometimes a little road rage beats crying over your steering wheel.<br />

So, I get home, TOTES excited to blog about these beauties! ...when... (dramatic pause) ...THEY'RE OUT OF STOCK ONLINE! How long have these gorgeous jackets been available, hmm?! Right under my flippin' nose! Girls -- run to your nearest mall immediately and pick one of these up before they're all gone!<br />

Thankfully, there's Google! I'm sure I'm not the only one, so here's a little 4-11 for the rest of you who are in the dark -- </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #660000;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #660000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;">The Met Ball is a yearly event hosted by the </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;">Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute for all the celebrity fashionistas out there. Who decides the ultra-exclusive guest list? Well, that would be Ms. Anna Wintour! No idea? Ms. Anna Wintour, the editor-in-chief of Vogue magazine and author of <u>The Devil Wears Prada</u>, duh-skies! This year's theme for the Gala was <a href="http://www.metmuseum.org/special/se_event.asp?OccurrenceId={55189B0E-51CF-4801-BC24-1D7CC67F7633}">"Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty"</a> to honor the late designer. Mmm, savage!</span></span><br />

I mean <b>hello</b>, this event is all about fashion -- you better be up to par! Toto, I don't think we're at the Oscars anymore... </span></span><br />

She rocked that Christian Dior gown like no other. It's a simple LBD, yet so daring with those gorgeous, nude sleeves! Bar-maid couture anyone ;)? Her collarbones and full eyebrows are her best accessories, as she shows off her natural Olsen beauty. I don't care what the critics say, Ash's elegant look blew those prom princesses out of the water! </span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #660000; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;">2. <u>Rumer Willis</u> - Who knew Bruce could have such a style-savvy offspring? This edgy chica was wearing Badgley Mischka last Monday, and boy did she nail it! My favorite part of this dress is the embellished one-shoulder. Feathers and sequins and cut-outs -- Oh my! (I'm OD-ing on the Wizard of Oz references..) Rumer's gown compliments her chestnut red hair and creamy complexion beautifully. I can see why Badgley Mischka picked Rumey as their newest model!</span></span><br />

But seriously, they just look so gorgeous together! Tay-tay is my number one favorite from the Met Gala. J. Mendel was the designer she chose, and I'm kind of obsessed. From the delicate lace shoulder to the endless layers of train, this dress is D-I-V-I-N-E. Pairing it with a soft up-do and classic red lips, Taylor made sure not to clash with J. Mendel's creation. </span></span><br />

The colors shift from a shimmery light pink to a milk chocolate. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">It says it's just a bronzer, but by no means is it just a bronzer! I use this baby for eyeshadow and blush as well. Won't touch bronzer with a ten foot pole because of your milky white complexion? Have no fear! The top two strips (light pink and latte colored) would be perfect for a subtle glow! Then you can use the bottom colors for eyeshadow shades! Love it. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

So, summer is quickly approaching, and people are wearing less makeup as the temperature starts to heat up. But I know a certain group of people who will continue to cake their face in concealer during the summertime. They'll avoid swimming pools and continually check their reflection to make sure that nothing has melted off. I know this because I used to be one of them -- I used to suffer from acne. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrlbDw3xaT6cCNHK33Iob6PAwyib98Yiw4QVrRKrUpi2uVsuFOdCfOJBiRYVvPL4IruRZBD2EGsikCHlXkyRmoOABMx1YviShdxrLF_FFn15FlZoQHNHRp4SanzwkEdoQJ8cBg8cmebLk/s1600/6332_241426190106_732500106_7985569_8115803_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrlbDw3xaT6cCNHK33Iob6PAwyib98Yiw4QVrRKrUpi2uVsuFOdCfOJBiRYVvPL4IruRZBD2EGsikCHlXkyRmoOABMx1YviShdxrLF_FFn15FlZoQHNHRp4SanzwkEdoQJ8cBg8cmebLk/s400/6332_241426190106_732500106_7985569_8115803_n.jpg" width="191" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I'm writing this blog because I know how it feels. The picture above barely shows what I had, because I would usually avoid pictures. Junior year of high school was the worst. I would literally spend hours a day on websites trying to find the magical cure. ProActiv, drugstore face washes, night creams, apple cider vinegar, green tea masks, scrubs, egg yolk masks... I can't even remember everything. I was too scared to go to the doctor, because I thought that medicine would make my skin worse before it got better. I would skip school, cancel plans with friends, and stay in bed because of my skin. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Finally, about a year ago, I went to the doctor for help. It's been a year and my skin is finally clear. Everyone's skin is different, but here is what works for me --</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.mims.com/resources/drugs/Thailand/pic/Differin%20water-base%20gel_27070.gif" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">1. <u>Differin Gel</u> - This is what I was afraid would make my skin worse before it was better. Actually, I don't remember much of an initial outbreak. I think it's because I was using it in combination with other medicine. I put this on once a night before I go to bed. It's clear and dries quickly, and you only have to use a pea-sized amount!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img src="http://loyolauniversity.adam.com/graphics/thomson/t107437f.jpg" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">2. <u>Minocin</u> - I believe that acne starts from the inside. How are you going to treat acne topically when it's caused by hormones? I take one pill once a day and it's cleared me up from the inside-out, yay yay!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.drug3k.com/img2/zovia_20163_4_(big)_.jpg" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">3. <u>Zovia</u> - Yep... there's more. My doctor prescribed this birth control for me, not so I wouldn't get preggo, but to clear up my acne. I had never heard of this BC before going on it. I didn't start the Zovia until 4 or 5 months after the Differin and Minocin. I can actually say that it did clear up the rest of those suckers that were too stubborn to leave! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">As you can see, doctors know best. I no longer trust companies like Philosophy or Neutrogena that are trying to sell me acne kits. Yes, these products can help maintain minor breakouts (such as PMS-related ones), but that's about it in my book. The key word is <b>SELL</b>. One thing I've realized is that Neutrogena and Philosophy also market lip gloss and bubble bath. I do not trust lip gloss and bubble bath producers with my <b>precious</b> skin. Sorry bout it! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">And here we go... the minor contributors to my clear skin -- </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="320" src="http://www.acne.org/images/products/oxy-wash-max-large.jpg" width="320" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">4. <u>Oxy Acne Wash Maximum Strength</u> - Okay, this bottle just LOOKS legit to me. I feel like my acne wash could beat up your acne wash any day! ;) This wash contains 10% Benzoyl Peroxide with none of the frills (menthol etc.) that could irritate my skin. I use this morning and night to keep my skin clean and wash my makeup off. (<b>CAUTION</b> : sensitive skin beware! I would start with a lower percentage of Benzoyl Peroxide or else your skin may get flakey!)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="312" src="http://freesamplefreak.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/BareMinerals.jpg" width="320" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">5. <u>Bare Minerals Foundation</u> - Alright, we're girls. In an ideal world we wouldn't wear makeup to let our acne-prone skin breathe. However, this is the real world and I'm try'na look GOOD. This is the only, I repeat, <b>ONLY</b> foundation/concealer that does not give me pimples. Even after using all of the above medicines, I still can't use other foundations without getting a huge zit on my cheek the next day. True story. Tried other mineral makeups. Bare Minerals for life. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDRC4ZdGiocfD6h2aN4llUe282mC0KalrImRtBycRACy4ut_wCkURehU0mTf3sTY102myT2kPgoCjeZ83AWYaxlDqmffBIsaZNR-_ndmy7lgshpBDZOwmr6eBFUWT2o5E2_IetM9N_zZKO/s320/no-milk.jpg" width="318" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">6. <u>No Milk</u> - This is a strange one, but it works for me. My boyfriend mentioned a couple months ago that every time he drinks a lot of milk he breaks out. Well, I've had milk for dinner since I was little, so this came as a bit of a surprise. I've actually stumbled across people swearing by no dairy on various websites too. It has something to do with the hormones in the milk. Anyways, ever since I've stopped drinking it I've noticed even LESS breakouts. I still eat other dairy products, just not straight milk.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

AliensDoes anyone remember that lesbian music vid about 8 years ago? I was listening to the radio the other day when Katy Perry's "E.T." came on. Suddenly, I got deja vu and it felt like I had heard it somewhere before! Flashback: t.A.T.u.'s "All The Things She Said" .. the controversial song on MTV's Total Request Live. Do slutty Catholic school girls grinding against a chain-link fence and making out ring a bell?<br />

One-shoulder bikinis are my newest obsession, and I hope that more stores will be offering them soon!<br />
<div><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><img height="320" src="http://oldnavy.gap.com/Asset_Archive/ONWeb/Assets/Product/839/839504/big/on839504-01vliv01.jpg" width="240" /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Here's Old Navy's one shoulder bandeau. It's simple, black, and CHEAP! $16.50 is a small price to pay to be the chic-est biddy at the pool! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="Image 1 of Mouillé Naomi Frill One Shoulder Top" src="http://images.asos.com/inv/media/6/2/6/8/1438626/limegreen/image1xl.jpg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;">European website, <a href="http://us.asos.com/Mouille-Mouill%C3%A9-Naomi-Frill-One-Shoulder-Top/vr9by/?iid=1438626&cid=2238&sh=0&pge=0&pgesize=20&sort=1&clr=Lime+Green&mporgp=L01vdWlsbGUvTW91aWxsLU5hb21pLUZyaWxsLU9uZS1TaG91bGRlci1Ub3AvUHJvZC8.">ASOS</a>, offers a different take on this style. The sunny color is to die for (it also comes in black), while the ruffles give it a femme vibe. You'll have to splurge a little more for this baby though - $84.27, but there's free shipping! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I don't know about you, but I'm so ready to hit the water in this new look!</div>Kelseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05195761034839931777noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7105517704539096457.post-50294504362972868802011-05-01T23:56:00.000-07:002011-05-01T23:57:12.582-07:00Pet Peeve - Sublimation Print Top<div style="text-align: center;"> <img alt="Floral halter top" height="400" src="http://www.bodyc.com/assets/item/regular/4507.jpg" width="276" /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Firstly, the faded tattoo design has got to go. But wait, let's put awkward white lines through the whole pattern, on the cheapest looking material we can find! I've been seeing this style for the past year, and I'm honestly surprised that stores like <a href="http://www.bodyc.com/products/floral-halter-top/?keywords=sublimation&pg=2&nextIdx=22&prevIdx=20&maxIdx=24">Body Central</a> KEEP coming out with new arrivals of this. Oh wait, I guess it's because -gag- people keep buying them! It just reminds me of something I would've worn in my awkward middle school days. Paired with braces? This shirt would've been "so tight"!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">5. With your clear coat again, paint the un-glittered portion of your nail normally. When you get to the glitter, gently "pat" the polish brush onto the nail. This is so the glitter doesn't stick to the brush! If it does, just wipe it off on the side of your nail polish bottle. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

This is what the cuticle cleaner is for! The glitter can get a little messy, so if it ends up under your nails just scrape it off. You could probably use a metal nail file as well. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I was tired of my nail polish always chipping so I thought, why not try glitter? All the glitter nail polishes I've tried just have too much polish and not enough glitter. So I made my own hehe! I've been wearing this look for about two days and it's held on great! Plus, It's a fun summer look :} I can't wait to go out and buy more colors -- turquoise glitter is next!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
