I’ve been on a serious Boots kick 🙂 lately that really kicked into high gear when I gave their Expert Sensitive Cleansing & Toning Wipes a try.
Target now carries at least, like, six different varieties of Boots makeup wipes… And I’m on a mission to test them all!
Last week I started using their biodegradable Quick Fix Cleansing Wipes, which Boots packed with botanicals like mallow to sooth and calm the skin.

Get the phone, honey child, because MAC’s a-calling, and they want you to Just Add Colour. 🙂
If I ever had any willpower when it came to bright sticks o’ gloss, MAC’s Just Add Colour Lipglass ($14) totally nuked it. Hello! It happens to be almost the exact same shade of fuchsia as my iPhone case. A coincidence? Perhaps, but when the worlds of makeup and technology collide, I’m so there.
Limited edition Just Add Colour shimmers by herself as the lone Lipglass in the approaching Prep For Colour collection (arrives Thursday).

Just Add Colour Lipglass
Isn’t she sassy and fresh? Perfect for spring/summer. The color begins with a bold, highly pigmented POP, but it wears down over the day into a surprisingly natural dark pink.

It never hurts to be prepared … for the application of color! 🙂 MAC’s new six-piece Prep for Colour collection is all about turning skin into a perfectly primed canvas for color, and it skips onto counters this Thursday, April 8.
With just three neutral eyeshadows, one bright fuchsia gloss, a skin brightening serum and a new sunscreen, the collection might not be as extensive or exciting as last week’s Art Supplies, but MAC still tossed some interesting stuff our way. And girls (and boys) who love everyday makeup and skincare products — that is, products you might like to wear every single day — are also in luck.
Which reminds me, are you ready for a giveaway?
One lucky lady will win three items from the MAC Prep For Colour collection: Eyeshadow in Sorcery (a reddish mid-tone brown), Eyeshadow in Hey (a warm mid-tone beige) and Prep + Prime Skin Brightening Serum. Total prize value: $69.

Wait — just one? Um, I have so many favorite colors … but I guess I do have a special place in my heart for blue (it reminds me of the ocean).

Second, enter by following me on Twitter and retweeting (RT) the following message:

Baie geluk!!
