Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I had a lipcolour epiphany of sorts -- I've been hunting for a true red and a soft pink. The closest I've come to a soft pink is from the Smashbox box that Kristen recommended a couple months ago -- the combo of pencil and lipgloss -- but when I wipe it off, it's nothing like pink on the tissue. Much darker, browner. Enough that I know I can never find pink by myself. Not only does stuff have to play off my surrounding skin tone, my lips are pretty dark themselves, and not the same colour as my face.

Being a girl is so complicated.

That was the red I wore as Tinkerbell. I've never actually worn it otherwise. It feels...I don't know. Maybe I'm not that woman.

ita, have you looked at any of the VivaGlam colors by MAC? They have a holiday edition compact of all of them, and they look like the sorts of colors you're seeking.

I want that compact, and if I am working by then, you bet your boots I am so freaking getting it.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I want Jilli's make up brain.

I also want kids who nap, but I'll settle for ones who watch tv.

That's right. I am the bad tv-is-my-babysitter mom!

Right now, any sort of frivolous distraction in the form of clothes or makeup is very, very welcome to me. If tomorrow is (again) slack at work, I may finally write up my huge LJ post reviewing the various skin & eye creams I've tried.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I finally got that Smashbox box myself, after months of fruitless searching.

Do you like it, bon? I'm in love with the brow stuff. I'm at risk of Joan Crawfording.

Thanks for the rec, Jilli. I don't know if I should bother trying, though. Maybe I should stick to browns and burgundies.

Somehow I doubt that. But it's a funny image.
