CELEBRITY STYLES and the HOBO BAG
What sets the celebrities apart from the rest of us where wardrobe is concerned is often the fact that they don't seem to let the fact that they may only have one outfit that looks fabulous with any one pair of shoes or an expensive handbag that doesn't match but one outfit. When I saw this yummy robin's egg blue hobo bag, I began to run over how many dresses or suits that I could wear it with to justify the price.
Blue, pink and white look wonderful with basic black, right? Not to mention khaki, saddle brown and many other colors. Let this be reminder to us all that we don't have to stick with basic brown or black leather purses to get our money's worth.
This scrumptious baby blue hobo bag will be so much more eyecatching than a plain old hobo handbag in a lesser color, don't you think? Perhaps we can learn a thing or two from celebrities about drawing admiring glances. I'm making a commitment to expand my inventory of hobo bags and I'm going to do it with funky colors and designs. I'm going to stop playing it so safe, within reason. Why the hobo handbag? Because I like the way they look on the arm of my favorite celebrities, of course!

BEST GEL EYELINER TIPS and TECHNIQUES
Not being blessed with lovely, large eyes and long lashes has pushed me to be pretty dependent on eyeliner. I once considered giving permanent eyeliner tattoos a shot but chickened out; I was that sick of eyeliner that had no need for an eyeliner smudger. It smudged, creased and ran very well all on its own. It just never stayed put.
For a eyeliner styles that give a smokey look with undefined edges, it's hard to beat pencils or crayons if you are brave. But it's just hard to beat liquid color applied with a brush for a dramatic look. For a retro look, I have used a technique that involved a broad band of white and a thin black line closer to my lashes. Lookout Twiggy, we're going back to the 60s!
If you exercise or shed the occasional tear you will appreciate gel eyeliner. Even the worst gel outpaces the BEST old time liquids for staying power. The best liquid gel eyeliner that I've tried so far is the Bobbi Brown eyeliner gel.
Here are some eyeliner tips that may make applying eyeliner a less stressful event:
Coat both sides of the brush evenly. Don't just put the product on one side.- Be certain not to load the brush to heavily. Wipe off excess ahead of time to avoid globs of liner where you don't want it
- Work from the inner corner of your eyelid to the outer edges.
- Make short, steady strokes to carry your color across the lid.
The only complaints that I have about this brand of gel eyeliner are that the product dried up pretty quickly (Smashbox's product was just as bad) and the second thing is that it takes a really good eye makeup remover to get it off. This is both what I love about gel eyeliner and what I hate about it....I love that it stays on but I hate the effort it takes to remove it.
MAC MAKEUP COUPON CODE
It's ridiculous what people are charging for shipping a tiny envelope filled with cosmetics. Some Ebay merchants charge an arm and a leg for packing and services as well as postage. I've paid as much as 5.99 (do they think that I think I'm getting a freebie by knocking off one penny to avoid six bucks?) for an eyeliner that weighed a few ounces!
There was a time when a discount shipping offer barely made a spot on the radar of discount bargain shoppers searching for completely free product samples and buy one get one free offers. Nowadays we are paying more attention to those sneaky, high shipping fees and we realize that free shipping can offer significant discounts.
Use this MAC COUPON CODE for free standard shipping: BRUSH. There is no minimum purchase required to take advantage of the promotional code and it works with anything you buy. You just have to pull the trigger before April 26, 2008.
The great thing about M.A.C. makeup products is that they are free of oil. And the cosmetics that are not oil free have natural oils like jojoba oil and orange oil. As our skin ages, these natural oils help us by preventing water loss of the skin. If you can hold the moisture in the skin, your skin looks younger.
