Urban Decay SUPER-SATURATED ULTRA INTENSE WATERPROOF CREAM EYELINER

Again, my quest for an awesome eyeliner that will not smudge.  I've had some luck with Japanese eyeliners.  Dollywink (liquid or pencil) are both awesome choices.  The Japanese sales lady called it "film type."
It will not smudge.  If anything it will flake very slightly.  It's really think so it's not like the ultraliner from maybellin (which used to be my HG for liquid).

Well today's post is about gel eyeliners, in particular Urban Decay's new gel liner.  I've tried MAC black track--which was pretty good, but it got old got tossed.  I also bought the Maybelline one but it got old and still thicker than I'd like.

So anyways, Urban Decay's is super saturated and a thinner consistency.  Unfortunately, because of its thinner consistency it smudged a lot more. I do like it for smudging however.

Dr. Bonner's Magic Soap



I read about a Dr. Bonner's Magic Soap on a blog a while back. When I saw it at target I picked up the bar soap. I usually hate body washes because it doesn't rinse squeaky clean. I was hoping the peppermint bar would be comparable to Bliss' Minty Mammoth Bar, but Dr. Bonner's bar was lacking in the minty experience.
Last week I was visiting my bff and she had a bottle of Dr.Bonner's liquid soap and it rinses so well I ran to Target and bought a huge bottle of the peppermint soap. It was $13.29 which is cheaper than what's listed on the Dr. Bonner website.
I absolutely love it! The cooling sensation of the peppermint is intense and just a little squirt gets so much lather. Definitely great for those mornings I need to wake up. :)

how i spent $50 at CVS...



  1. Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Liquid SPF 70- I needed a moisturizer with sun protection, this product stated it layers evenly under make up. It was either this or the anti aging spf Neutrogena also came out with, but I ended up purchasing this. Now my question is moisturizer first or sunblock first? I know they say Sunblock goes on first, but since this is waterproof, sweat proof, etc; will my moisturizer penetrate through that?
  2. L'Oreal Studio Secrets Smoothing Resurfacing Primer-CVS actually had a brand new tester when I was in their store. I tried some on the back of my hand it. It felt very similar to Smashbox's Photofinish at half the cost. Decided I would add it to my non-existent make up routine in the AM.
  3. Sally Hansen Continuous Treatment GROWTH Formula - Recently I've gotten into the bad habit of biting my nails and I have not been able to grow them since. I usually love Sally Hansen products so I picked this up. Quite pricey at $10.99 a bottle.

Infallible my @$$


I am always on a constant search for a perfect eye liner. Pencils always smudge on my oily crease hidden eyes. When my friend said she loved L'Oreal Infallible Never Fail Eye Liner because it doesn't smudge I believed it since she was Asian too.
Two hours after application I'm looking like a raccoon. :(
On the upside, the smudges are easily wiped away.
But really 16 hours? more like 16 mins. Angry.
I won't be fooled again.
