Do you know? There is a ridiculous number of cosmetic products on the shelves today?! I was at Target last night. I need: tinted moisturizer & powder - pressed or loose, no matter. I didn't buy anything. There was too much of everything & I have no idea what colors I need or anything.

Perhaps I should clarify?

In the last 2 years, or rather, ever since I discovered Bradley, then Shane, at the MAC counter at Nordies, I've not had to decide anything. I would sit down in his chair, he would produce any number of cosmetic items, hand-picked for my coloring. I would stand up looking FAB and he would ask what I needed. I would just buy whatever foundation, powder, eye shadow he had used that I really liked, a new brush, whatever, drop [too much of] my money at the cash and walk out. Similarly, when I needed moisturizer, the girl at philosopy sat me down, looked at my pores, and went to work. Again, I said, well I need that and that and here's my Visa.

The only thing I've bought on my own has been mascara - Fresh's Supernova. I was introduced to it at Mall of America and I get it at Sephora. I walk it, ask where the mascara is (they are forever moving the stuff on me!), pick up the amazing box, hand over my rewards card with my Visa and walk out. The day I read that plum mascara would make my eyes look greener, I went to Sephora. The dumbfounded clerk said "plum mascara????" So I went to Bartell's and got Almay's Raisin Quartz. I can buy mascara.

But I need help with the rest of the stuff. I've been to Target a couple of times and still haven't gotten anything. An employee asked if she could help me, so I said I needed a tinted moisturizer that was like philosophy's. She stared blankly at me and pointed vaguely in the direction of the moisturizer aisle. I NEED SHANE! I think he's moved back to Cali by now. :( He was so pretty....

I can't think of what will happen when I need more mascara. I'm not sure I can go back to Maybelline :s



Ah, the trials one must face... ;)







And now, since I've not visited this topic in a while...

I know it's totally wrong of me to crush on 18-year-olds or married men, but sometimes............. Oh & I didn't know the cutest one had a girlfriend until today. sigh. Does he know he's the best looking one here?!















Missing you!
