Thank you Swine Flu!

Well, thanks to the old Swine Flu or H1N1 (Heiney) Flu the Fort Worth I.S.D. got a week's vacation last week!
My parents were down in New Orleans for Jazzfest, so I grabbed my BFF Christina and my daughter, Mathilda, and we road tripped it down to the bayou!

We had a ball!  Jazzfest was awesome, the food was fab and fun was had by all!

I even got to meet one of my favorite YouTube Gurus----NOLAmylove/Nikki!  

Here is a very brief slideshow of snaps from our getaway...

Wet 'n Wild BOGO at Walgreens

I am a firm believer in never buying drugstore makeup without a sale.  Walgreen's and CVS are the best for getting deals on even the most inexpensive cosmetic lines.

This week a bargain is to be had at Walgreens with Wet 'n Wild cosmetics all Buy One Get One FREE!

Wet 'n Wild has been around for a long time and provides some really great product.

Here are a few of my favorites:

 $3.99 



$.99 




$.99
Shade 666 Brandywine is a cult favorite!




I think these are $3.99

Summer Lovin'



I am ready for Summer!
Not just because I am a teacher, and we have something like 35 school days left!
wink, wink!

I am ready for sun, fun and the beach!

Here are a couple of wonderfully smelling items that scream "SUMMER" to me...


This stuff is really rich, and smells exactly like their signature suntan oil!
I got mine for $6.99 at Walmart.



Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess is available in 100 ml Eau Fraiche, 100 ml Body Oil and 200 ml Luminous Body Lotion. The notes include coconut milk, sandalwood, vanilla, vetiver, myrrh, amber, mandarin, bergamot, lemon, orange, tiare flower, jasmine, magnolia, orange blossom and lavender.

This is really my go-to scent in the summer.  It's light and reminiscent of Bain de Soleil suntan gellée.

KISS

Yes, I'm a KISS fan from way back.  That's me above in 1979 (with my beloved Mamaw & baby brother).  Yes, I went to Kindergarten dressed as Peter Criss of KISS (at a private Baptist school, no less!).

So of course, I went and voted on the KISS website to have their next tour stop in my hometown!  You can, too!

Some things I'm loving!




When I "unfroze" my tanning membership this spring (I know.  Don't judge.), I was able to add *spray-tanning* to my package.  My salon uses VersaTan, and it is AWESOME!  

I am not a self-tanner gal---I always get streaky.  But this is different.  You get in a shower stall type box, and it sprays you first with tanner, dries you, then sprays you with moisturizer, and then dries you again.

VersaTan is nothing like what I had heard about MysticTan.  It gives a really even glow, without any orange at all.  I highly recommend it!



Love this stuff!  Heard about it originally from Lollipop26  whose blog and YouTube channel are both fab!
 
It's a "Nappy Cream" from Europe that really helps get rid of acne and redness.  It's also a great multi-purpose item for cuts, rashes and any general skin malady.  The scent is *wonderfully lavendery*.  Sudocrem is different from most of our US diaper creams in that it contains alcohol and has anti-bacterial properties.  My awesome globe-trotting Daddy brought me some from London, but it can be purchased on Ebay and various websites.

I am a sucker for MAC.  There are a few things I am really loving right now...

Shadesticks~ these are an everyday for me.  I use them as a base for my eyeshadow.  They really make my shadow stick on my oily lids.  I'm loving the new shades from the new Sugarsweet collection.

Mineralize Skinfinish~ this is MAC's Mineral Makeup.  I love it because it is really buildable, and can be as light or full coverage as you need.  Gives your skin a great glow and texture.

MV2 Fragrance~honestly, I haven't met a MAC fragrance I didn't like.  They are all really subtle and lovely.  Right now I like the MV2 because it seems *springlike*!
