How Adventurous Are You with Your Skin Care Routine?
While my tubby tabby was holding down the fort on MBB this afternoon (thank gawd he can type!), I partook of something near and dear to beauty addicts everywhere: retail therapy!
I swung by Sephora to do some therapeutic window shopping and to return a few things. I didn’t expect this, though — when I got to the checkout counter, the cashier told me about something called the Sephora Skincare Challenge. Have you heard about this?

Tuesday Beauty Tips: Boosting Your Confidence
What’s up, ladies? This morning I woke up to two things:
- The rumbling of my tummy for gravy (I still haven’t figured out how to open up those cans of Fancy Feast without opposable thumbs, damn), and
- …the sound of my executive assistant, Karen, blubbering into her pillow.
“Tabs,” she cried, “I have writer’s block the size of freakin’ China. I don’t want to disappoint people, but the honest-to-gawd truth is that I’m not feeling funny, happy or inspired. I feel about as great as a dirty litterbox…that should have been cleaned three days ago.”
Next thing I knew, homegirl was sobbing into my fur, basically ruining the blow-out I just got at the Blo Bar SF.
Having heard enough, I climbed onto her chest, stared deeply into her eyes and said, “Woman, you need to calm the eff down. Get a grip before you end up cutting off your ear Van Gogh-style. You see, I can’t have you doing that. I need your ears fully functional, so you can hear my cries for gravy.”

Cynthia Nixon: Her Best Hair?
Good morning, ladies. 🙂 It’s a new day (soo glad we put Monday behind us!). How are you doing?
Lately I’ve had Sex and the City on my mind. The sequel coming out nudged me to re-watch some old episodes from back in the day.
Did you know that Miranda’s character, played by actress Cynthia Nixon, was a fellow cat lady? Yup, her chubby tabby cat, Fatty, appeared in a few episodes.
I’ve always felt more connected to Carrie and Charlotte, but I still loves me some Miranda. She doesn’t take crap from anyone!

Dior Addict Ultra Gloss: Smooth Texture, High Shine
Hey, babes. Before we bid an overdue adieu to this particular Monday (YAY!), let’s take a quick look at a few of the glosses from Dior’s new Addict Ultra Gloss line ($27).
This a-dior-able line of 12 glosses features a lightweight texture and ultra high shine. Dior incorporated penetrating hyaluronic spheres — dehydrated microspheres of hyaluronic acid — to plump the lips — and what they call micropearls to keep lips hydrated, smooth and shiny.
So did their science experiment work?
