MAC Cosmetics Mineralize Tips From MAC Make Up Artist Keri

I really could have used an extra hour of sleep last night...oh, who am I kidding I could have used an extra five hours of sleep. I have an insane headache that 30 Advil's won't cure. FML. Last night was one of those annoying nights where you get into a senseless argument right before you are supposed to go to sleep. It was one of those stupid arguments that could have been totally avoided if specific precautions had been taken...again...who am I kidding...I would have flipped out either way....But it's nothing a little retail therapy and a sweet kiss from someone special won't cure. Anyway, my bloody alarm goes off at the usual time this morning and I do my usual routine of hitting the snooze three hundred times before I get up....but this morning was a little different. No, I still hit the snooze three hundred times...but I looked over at my blackberry and I had an email that cheered me up for a few seconds...MAC Cosmetics beauty expert Keri has posted a wonderful how to video on the website. It perfectly illustrates how to make your Mineralize products look absolutely amazing. Thank you God for making my morning a little less miserable... click here for the delicious details.........

So, now I have a few things to look forward to today...and no sitting at work for 8 hours wondering why I can not be left alone for two seconds to get any of my own work done is so impossible, is not what I mean. The few highlights include watching Obsessed - yes I know it's an awful movie but, what can I say..I enjoying watching Beyonce attempt to act. I'm not going to lie, knowing there is a woman with bigger thighs then me makes me feels fabulous. I'm not trying to hate on her, because if I was that would mean that I was jealous of her and I'm am not jealous of her looks because, well you know...and I almost feel bad for the girl...she has to wake up to Jay-Z's face every morning, that would drive me to suicide, and we all know he has a face that only a mother could love. Before I head to the movie I plan on hitting up MAC for some retail therapy. MAC is like a perfect friend that never ever disappoints. Even if I walk out of there with nothing, which is physically impossible, I will walk out of there with a huge smile on my face. Also, most importantly....tomorrow is FRIDAY! I think I just heard the entire world sigh...who doesn't love Friday?! Thankfully, I get to spend the weekend with a bottle of vodka, champagne, a blender and some wonderful girl talk...outside of the city.

Now would it be totally inappropriate if I pulled a George Costanza and took a nap under my desk.....?

StimuLashFusion Intensive Night Conditioning Lash Enhancer

I have stopped using my Talika Lash Conditioner, not because it is bad, but because I have run out and every time I go to Sephora I forget to pick up another tube. I may have to stray away from Talika to try to Fusion Beauty's StimuLashFusion Intensive Night Conditioning Lash Enhancer. I am a very big fan of Lip Fusion so I am excited to try this. StimuLashFusion Intensive Night Conditioning Lash Enhancer is meant to augment the length and fullness of your lashes in just six weeks. It contains Vitamin E as well as nourishing peptides and amino acids. It does NOT contain any harmful parabens or fragrances. This is opthamologist tested and can be used on eyebrows as well if you need a little boost.

**Update** Kim Kardashian Goes Blonde

She totally had us fooled! It's a wig!! She needs to stick to her natural colour!

Kim Kardashian Goes Blonde!

Kim Kardashian has lost it. She has gone blonde! I think she may have forgotten that brunettes have much more fun! I don't really like it. It doesn't look awful, but her brown hair was more beautiful.

She kind of looks like J.Lo with her new hair....

What do you ladies think? Is Kim better as a brunette or blonde?

Elle Canada Beauty & Fashion Event

I had the pleasure of attending Elle Canada's Beauty & Fashion event this weekend with my gorgeous friend Lauren. We enjoyed runway shoes including Simon Chang, Renata Morales, Tavan & Mitto, as well as some Project Runway designers who blww my mind with their fabulous designs. We also listened to Val Garland, Artistic Advisor for Yves Saint Laurent, as she enlightened us with make up and beauty tips for the season. Ladies, all I have to say is that blue eyeshadow is huge.

Here as some pictures from the catwalk....

HOT!

Fit In Your Jeans By Friday

Kim Kardashian has released a series of workout videos called Fit In Your Jeans By Friday. What took her so long?? There are three DVDs in the series: Amazing Abs Body Sculpt, Bun Blasting Cardio Step and Ultimate Butt Body Sculpt. The workouts are a representation of what Kim does to keep her body tight and toned and as evident by her figure - the routines work. So, if you want to see what Kim does to keep her booty so bodacious pick up her DVDs. Also, she wears the hottest workout outfits! I would pick them up just for the fashion! Kim is the only person who would wear Herve Leger while working out!

PS. As promised, I want to keep you all posted about my progress while using The Tracy Anderson Method workout DVDs. I received them later than expected, but I will be officially starting my workout routine tonight. I'm excited and scared all at the same time.....
