| Coming to you from an unusually chilly LA night. I don't know why I decided to type something out, especially this late, but I did have the common sense not to type this out via text to an ex-whatever. I have reached the metaphoric rock bottom in said relationship, which is still quite silly to say. For the past 2 years I have been lusting after a friend, AJ. We actually turned out to be digital friends, meaning we never actually got together after our first meeting, but we would call and text. Which is sadly what many friendships have turned out to be today. We would go through periods where one of us would be so lonely or bored that we would text the other to catch up or playfully flirt, and days later get bored & sort of drift apart for months until the process started over again. Seriously scary events happened that brought us closer, and I think for that reason, we never stopped contacting each other. If I wasn't with somebody, he was, and when he wasn't, I was. It wasn't until we were both single & flirted with the idea of dating, but neither of us made the first move. We were dating people & swapped bad date stories until he met somebody that caught his attention for more than a few dates. I wanted to be happy for him, but I was jealous. At first I thought I was jealous at the idea that he finally found someone he could fall for while I was attracting duds, but then I realized I was jealous of HER. I wanted to be courted by him. I wanted all of his attention. And grow old with him. Sounds selfish doesn't it? I came to that lovely conclusion as I was going over how I'd bring all of that up to him. I wanted him at the worst time possible. And it turned out it wasn't the first time either. Why do I find myself attracted to unavailable men, physically and emotionally, when there are so many available men out there? This question coming from the girl who got offended by AJ for wishing her luck in finding a man to love. And that is where it ends. The realization of my selfish exploits for happiness & breaking up a perfectly happy couple. Shameful. I set you free AJ. Cheers. | | |
| I received a complimentary sample as a member of Influenster. I love how moisturizing it left my skin and i even loved the smell. It wasn't the usual boring sunscreen scent. The only thing, i didn't feel like it protected my skin. I was told it was waterproof, but i would have to reapply as soon as i got out of the water. Www.hawaiiantropic.com | | |
| Before I start with my product review, let me go with a little history. I am a member of Influenster (www.influenster.com). It's a site where you take little surveys to earn "badges" for your profile, and depending on which badges you have or your personal info, you can be selected to get what they call a Voxbox. There has been one for Spring, for mothers, and this one I just received was for Latinas :). These Voxboxes are shipped to you absolutely free, though don't expect to get every single one that comes out (they have about 4-6 per year), and to be eligible to possibly get more, you have to turn in these activities. To get a certain badge like the NYC badge, which is what i'm doing right now, they ask you to like their FB page, follow on Twitter, add a fun picture of the product on a socialedia site, and either make a blog or video on it. I'm taking a Youtube hiatus, so here I am :). REVIEW Http://www.newyorkcolor.com This is a nice lipgloss. It isn't sticky, which is a nice change, however, it doesn't have the best staying power because of it. But I don't mind reapplying. I like the wand applicator. It's a doe foot, at a slight angle but straight, and quite long. I haven't used up a lot, but i get the feeling it reaches the bottom & would be able to make use of the whole product. | | |

Hello lovelies! So I bought this product from E.L.F. about a month ago and have had a while to use it, and I figured why not write a review to let others know what I think.
It's worth $6 on eyeslipsface.com, but I was fortunate enough to get it half off using a coupon code. Not that I needed it, $6 is well worth it. This primer is great underneath your favorite foundation or just on its own for oil control. I have a very oily t-zone and I found this primer lasts almost all day for me. Controls my shiny forehead (it's a pretty big one too lol), and reduces the appearance of fine lines. I'm not saying I have a face full of wrinkles, but my laugh lines weren't too noticeable. It turns into this nice satin finish, pretty matte. It doesn't last all day, as I have tested this, but it lasts for 6 hours at the most, which I think is good enough. You don't need some 18-hour proof primer!
Now I have heard mixed reviews from other people about this product, but I feel I have to mention something about them. First, I have very sensitive skin. I am very careful about sanitizing everything, even the tabletop I work with. So I know when it's a product that breaks me out, and not dirty hands or brushes. I'm not accusing them of anything, but I know me & I trust me haha.
If you've used this product, leave a comment below telling me what you thought about it! | | |

Her name is Erica. She goes by pumpkin, toots and even E. You can find her skipping through Los Angeles with her heart on her sleeve, her trusty cellphone, and an iPod Classic. She stands petite at the age of 22, soon to be 23. She's happy and feels fabulous.
