The CFA (Cat Fanciers’ Association) recognizes 40 pedigree cat breeds for showing, but that’s nothing compared to the hundreds of makeup collections MAC has shown over the years. 🙂
Lately, I’ve been having a hard time keeping my cat breeds and MAC collections apart, LOL! Must be something about the names…

P.S. I’ll post the answers in the comments later today (your answers should be in bold after you vote). 🙂
You can always find beauty, even in the smallest of things.
WOW! What a MAC-alicious week… And the hits keep coming, too. Mark your calendars for Feb. 18, MAC fans, because that’s the day MAC Riveting rock ‘n rolls into town.
It’ll be a small release compared to Spring Colour Forecast, with just 14 pieces for lips, eyes, cheeks and nails and a familiar ’80s rock goddess vibe that focuses on sculpted cheeks and lush lashes.
What Tabs wants to know is…
“Like sands through the hourglass, so are the ________________.”
There’s a new kid in town, and she’s a regular child prodigy — an Hourglass Prodigy, to be exact.
Prodigy, a new line of pocket-friendly lip glosses from luxury brand Hourglass, slides into Sephora stores later this month (Feb. 18), and small clutches everywhere are going wild! 🙂
But seriously, the six slick glosses cost $26 apiece, so they aren’t as cheap as their diminutive size might lead one to believe.
Still, their flat tubes seem kinda cool, don’t they? They’re designed to fit snugly into tight spaces like pockets or a tiny clutch.
I love it when companies push (or in this case squish) the envelope when it comes to design.
The top snaps off (took me a minute to figure it out) to reveal the angled applicator tip, and squeezing the body of the tube dispenses the product.
I just wish I could get Hourglass to tweak one thing…

Shu Uemura Égérie False Eyelashes, $30
Good mornin’, girls! 🙂 Ah… I don’t have the words to describe how happy I am that it’s Friday. Even though I blog and freelance every day of the week, I take it easier on the weekends, so TGIF!
For some strange reason, I’m thinking about wearing false eyelashes today, but their application is a skill I have yet to master. They end up crooked, the glue gets all over the place, I smudge my eye makeup — it ain’t a pretty sight!
ONE of these years, I’ll figure it out.
