Yay it is Friday!!! I have not been feeling my greatest this week but I am now on medicine so I should be in tip top shape any day now 🙂
Drugstore makeup has really caught my eye these past few weeks and my little collection is growing 🙂
Anyways, since I was sick aka a big baby this week, Dan has been really great and stayed home this week instead of traveling.
Before we got married, every time I was sick he would bring me a goodie bag of saltines, soup, medicine, cough drops, magazines, and candy. I loved it! Since we moved though I haven’t really gotten this bad in a long time so I had forgotten about the get well bag until this week when he came home with one.
It was really sweet and I felt loved by it all. I was most surprised about the Physicians Formula New York City Bronzer. I forget how much he really listens to my thoughts since I ramble a lot and I even forget what I say lolol
I haven’t touched the Paris one because I don’t want to mess it up but I can see myself using the NYC one. I love both cities but come on it’s Paris and it trumps a lot of cities so I couldn’t bare to use it.
I know I don’t use bronzer in general but I am looking super pale as of late so I may dive in for my first real experience with bronzer.
Also here is my latest little baby (another fail at my lipstick ban, oops.) I love Catherine so much! I realize I may use the word love too loosely when it comes to Nars Audacious Lipsticks but it’s true! They are all so beautiful and this one is my Lady Catherine. A beautiful “sunny guava” color I adore her. I wore her this week and just when I was about to take a picture I threw up 😦 I will be wearing her soon so she will be back on looking amazing 🙂
****Side thought- I hate throwing up the most because I get super chapped lips and now they are cracked and bleeding 😥
Recently, I am loving the colors coral, orange, and salmon ❤ I am buying everything in sight, if it comes in these colors it will be going home with me lol
I was cleaning my makeup stuff this week and found this amazing Lorac lipstick the one right next to the lollipop (my doctor was so nice and gave me one when I went in this week) in the color Coral.
I couldn’t believe it because I forgot I bought this in November on sale and I guess I just pushed it to the back but I am wearing it right now and loving the Vanilla smell. My lips are gross but it feels so moisturizing and the color is great against my skin tone. I hope to post a picture another time but because of this one I am going to check out more Lorac lipsticks.
Stay beautiful!!!
xoxo

Thanks Cos! Yes I am throwing out all lip balms and hope to get an antibacterial spray but for now rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle is my go to for my other makeup. I am so thankful he is here because I didn’t think I was this sick until the throwing up began. Ugh but hopefully it goes away soon. I am feeling better already with my medicine so I am very happy about that, hope you have a great weekend too ❤ ❤ ❤

I’m SO sorry you’ve been sick :0( I don’t like that! I’m glad that Dan is a wonderful man who takes good care of you though.
Your treats look great. Milani has been catching my eye…. I’ve been wanting to make a trip to Wal-Greens.
Catherine!! She’s sitting in my Sephora basket waiting for me to bite the bullet. LOL
I hope you’re on the mend!

Thank you Jacqueline, it has been blah this week but with my medicine I am already feeling better 🙂 And yes thank goodness for Dan because I would be lost and feeling worse without him.
I like the baked blushes more from Milani than the flower powder blush but now I am very curious about the eyeshadows and lipsticks. I am waiting for another sale then I will get a couple to test them out. Can’t wait to see what you get 🙂
Omg I would bite the bullet on Catherine she is so pretty and I am obsessed with her. I know you will love her too! I wasn’t sure what to expect since I thought she might be too light or orangey but no she is a perfect every day wearable orangey coral color. She made it to the finalist on what to bring for San Diego next week lolol

Sorry to hear that you weren’t feeling well. I hope you are feeling much better now. That is so sweet of your husband to bring you a get well bag. I haven’t been sick in I can’t in remember how long ago so I wouldn’t know what my boyfriend would do for me lol. I don’t think I have been sick really since I have been with him. Maybe once lol. Anyway, I love your pictures of everything! I wouldn’t want to ruin the Paris bronzer either. It’s just too beautiful! I love your new Nars addition too. Such a beautiful shade! 🙂 xoxo

I took my medicine and definitely feeling much better! Thank you Katie ❤ And yes he seems to spoil me a lot so I don't mind staying sick with this special treatment lolol
It was so random I haven't been this sick in a long time and suddenly it hit me and so after throwing up I went to the doctor because I had no idea what I could possibly have, the doc gave me some antibiotics and it has helped a lot
I am happy I am not alone in my thinking I just can't ruin the Paris one lolol
I blame Dan for my obsession with Nars, he started it with getting me Janet in November and then I have slowly accrued all these lipsticks LOLOLOLOL I am excited for their new blushes that come out next week but I love the brand so much. Their lipsticks, blushes, concealer, and brushes all have been great and have not failed me. I hope to add their foundation soon because everyone loves their foundation too that it almost seems wrong not to have it in my collection hahah. Have a great night Katie ❤

Love that get well goodie bag. I need to remember that the next time my man gets his man cold. I don’t have much patience for the man cold but this little bag would be a great non-verbal communication tool. “ I love you despite the fact that you are a whiny baby with a sniffle.”

I hope you’re feeling better Janet! And, I’d totally help you eat those candies if you’re feeling *too sick. 😉 I’ve been wanting to grab a PF bronzer or shimmer brick. I was actually at Target today looking at a few, but I wanted a specific shade they weren’t carrying (Miami shimmer brick). Apparently they’re kind similar to the Bobbi Brown shimmer bricks.
