Dear Trapped,
I can’t guarantee you it’ll work, but I’ve had some success mewling as loudly as possible and clawing at the drapes and blinds.

It seems to work best in the middle of the night, and it may require at least three uninterrupted hours of constant clawing.

Meow,
Tabby

Dear Tabby,
Sometimes my personal chef is late to work, and my breakfast isn’t ready when I need it. What’s the best way to let her know that her tardiness is completely unacceptable?

Sincerely,

Dear Timely,
I’ve had the same problem with my personal chef. I recommend extremely loud mewling, and if that doesn’t work, lots of intense, focussed staring.

Dear Tabby,
My assistant fails to understand that I own everything in the office. how can I politely inform her of her ridiculous oversight?

Sincerely,

Dear Mine,
It’s important to right away claim anything that she appears to be even remotely interested in by draping your entire body across it. at times you may also bite and claw her if she attempts to retrieve an item in your possession.

This is an issue that a lot of cats face.

Meow,

metropolitan Decay Vice Lipstick Palettes
“You state ‘lipstick hoarder’ like it’s a poor thing.”

I mean, yeah, my shoulders may permanently tilt on my best side since of my penchant for bring around 8-10 tubes of lipstick to go get a boba tea from the mall, however at least I’m always prepared…because ya never know. If I’m ever struck by an uncontrollable requirement to switch from a neutral lip to an legendary red — as well as count on me, urges like that are best up there with Nutella yearnings — I’ll be prepared.

REKLAME

The metropolitan Decay Vice Lipstick Palettes look like this…
I believed about this the other day when I swapped out neutral peachy pink Ex-Girlfriend lipstick for bright orangey red EZ (swoon!) from the new $35 metropolitan Decay Vice Lipstick combination in Blackmail, one of two Vice Lipstick Palettes from UD this year for ferierne.

It’s so simple to switch your lipstick shade when you have 12 of them in a smooth travel case.

And the palettes likewise include a respectable, retractable lip brush, as well as it’s much better than most, since many travel lip brushes are about as helpful as painting your lips with a handful of yearn needles.

Both of these UD Vice Lipstick Palettes — Blackmail as well as Junkie — are $35 each, which isn’t bad, thinking about that each one has 12 shades.

The Blackmail combination seems tame, with its beautiful mix of nudes as well as brights, next to its rock ‘n’ roll rebel shout sister, Junkie, with its edgier colors as well as that cray-cray forest green.

I’ve stated it before as well as I’ll state it again: the UD Vice lippies are bad-@ss beautiful. I got hooked on them when the Gwen Stefani collection dropped, as well as I was using shade 714, like, 23 hours a day.

They have that soft, creamy high quality I look for in moisturizing lipsticks (yup, even the mattes are quite darned moisturizing), as well as they drape across your lips like a silk gown on a woman’s curves.

There’s a broad variety colors as well as completes among the two palettes (Mega Matte, comfort Matte, Cream, Metallized, sheer as well as sheer Shimmer), as well as they’re great representations of what the line has to offer in terms of lipstick.

Here’s the thing, though: even though I like the Vice lipsticks, as well as I like the colors in these palettes as well as the $35 price, I’ve likewise come to recognize that I’m not truly a lipstick combination person…

I’ve been bring around both of these palettes this week since I freaking like the concept of rollin’ deep with 24 lipsticks, however I haven’t utilized them extremely frequently when I’ve been out as well as about to touch up my lips.

More Junkie swatches…
And even much more Junkie swatches…
My heart certainly prefers private tubes, even to these fantastic huge boxes of color.

I’d rather just bring a lot of private tubes… I dunno, though. I may be a weirdo that way.

But if you’re a lipstick combination gal, then yeah, these are great palettes.

I’m inclined to point you toward Blackmail, since I believe it’s the much more helpful of the two. The brights as well as nudes are balanced, as well as you can most likely discover something in there to match any type of as well as all eye looks.

Does one of these catch your eye? as well as what do you believe of the metropolitan Decay Vices?

S.s. I’m so excited! ??? The extremely very first round of Connor Claire orders are shipping out this week!! If you put an order, you ought to be getting your products soon. worldwide orders, though, will take a bit longer to get to you.

, selvom en lille storm blæste i denne eftermiddag, kom min i dag til en god start! Solen skinnede, fuglene syntes, babypigen sparkede som en Kung Fu Rockstar i min mave, og jeg formåede endelig at udfylde min lille Nars Pro palette med rødme.

Du kan måske huske, da jeg først nævnte den samme palette tilbage i september. På det tidspunkt var der kun to ensomme rødme i et hjørne …

Kan du se nogen af ​​dine nars favoritter her? Hvis du skulle bygge en brugerdefineret ni-pan rødme palette, hvad ville du sætte derinde?

I need help picking a favorite!
OK, so I’ve been eyeing these $34 Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector luminous Blushes for the longest time. There are six of them now, and I actually fell in love with the shade called Blushed Copper back when it was sold as a “blush topper,” also known as a super intense highlighter, last summer. I bought it when it was limited edition and promptly fell in love. It was super pigmented, super shimmery and just…super smooth and blendable. very super. So when I heard that Becca was expanding the “Luminous Blush” collection this year, I cheered!

These six shades do not disappoint, and when I think of this year’s spring makeup launches, for me, this one’s top three. It’s the formula. Det er utroligt!

REKLAME

The six Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector luminous blush shades
I tend to stick with the same group of basic blushes for my workday wear, but I think as far as shimmery blushes go, these really stand out for their unique formula. I know that MAC has some frosted blushes…but these Becca luminous Blushes blow them out of the water.

The pink shades (L to R) – Dahlia, Foxglove and Camelia
The orange/coral shades (L to R): Blushed Copper, Tigerlily, Snapdragon
They’re insanely pigmented and smooth, and the color payoff is brilliant. You barely need to tap your brush on one of them to get this level of pigment, and because they are so pigmented, you don’t need to put a lot of product on your face. It’s not like you have to cake these blushes onto your face or do a ton of layering to get true-to-pan color.

And the sheen? SO beautiful, and so, so perfect for this time of the year.

Well, who are we kidding? These work any time of year, but I do like to go crazier with glow and shimmer in the warmer months.

I could go on and on about these blushes!

But I won’t. I’ll just give you the details…

There are six shades, so if you’re into shimmering or luminous blushes, you should be able to find one that works for you. I have a hard time picking a favorite, so maybe you guys can help!

Wearing Becca luminous blush in Snapdragon
Wearing Becca luminous blush in Tigerlily (in the pan and the swatches below, this looks quite orange, but it’s actually a very wearable peach)
Wearing Becca luminous blush in Blushed Copper
It’s funny because when I saw the pictures of these blushes online, I was drawn to Tigerlily, which looks like straight-up tangerine when you see the product in the pan, and it struck me as unique. I was super excited for it, but after playing with it and the other shades, I think my favorite is Foxglove just because it’s a little cooler toned than I normally go for, but it’s still wearable because of its sheen.

Here are some side-by-side swatches:

Swatches of the Becca luminous Blushes (L to R): Camelia, Snapdragon, Dahlia, Tigerlily, Snapdragon and Blushed Copper.
So, I guess my favorite is Foxglove.

Well…actually, I go back and forth between Foxglove and Camelia. but then Blushed Copper is also gorgeous for that sun-kissed, you’ve-been-out-in-the-sun-at-the-beach (possibly sipping a little something) kind of look.

Dahlia is a very intense, gorgeous berry shade, and I tend to not pick up very berry-colored blushes because I think they make my skin look too red. That being said, I still think Dahlia is beautiful. and honestly, it would look fab with a deep red matte lippie. Hmm… This may be my makeup look tomorrow.

Each time I look at these blushes, I change my mind on which one I like best. I’m hard-pressed to pick a favorite, but I think I can narrow it down to top three — Camelia, Foxglove and…maybe Snapdragon? Or Blushed Copper.

Here’s a comparison between the Becca luminous blush in Blushed Copper on the left and the limited edition version that I bought last summer on the right.
Bottom line, these are all INCREDIBLE. I think that if you like shimmering blushes, or if you’re a blush person at all, then you definitely need one of these in your collection because they are stunning and phenomenal quality. In all of these pictures, I used a very light hand and got terrific color payoff, so if you see one of these you like, get it for the formula! You’ll want to wear it every single day.

Here’s a closer look at the Becca luminous Blushes…

I’d love to hear your thoughts! have you tried these luminous blushes before?

Nogle gange vil jeg bare være en poreløs alien babe … et par uger tilbage jeg var på et træk show, samt en dronning ved navn Kylie Minono var forbi skud af vodka til folket siddende bag mig. Hun undskyldte for at nå over mig så godt som fortalte mig, at vodka kan synke ind i dine porer. “Men vent, har du endda noget? Pige, hvad bruger du såvel som hvor kan jeg få det? ”

Nå, du kan få det til Ulta! Det er et $ 29 presset gennemskinneligt pulver, der hedder bye bye porerne (som du sikkert har hørt om nu) fra det kosmetik.

REKLAME

Se? Nemlig. Du kan ikke, da der ikke er noget der. Jeg bruger nars tonet fugtighedscreme i Terre Nueve som min base.
Lad os backtrack i et sekund.

Jeg har ikke store porer, men de kan få tilstoppet ganske let, så jeg forsøger at lade min hud trække vejret så meget som jeg kan. Heldigvis er jeg en workaholic, der næppe har tid til morgenmad, endsige voldsomme vinger før arbejde. Jeg ønsker, at jeg gjorde, men jeg lignede ligesom søvn.

Når jeg har tørre pletter, helbredende pletter, eller bare vil have den glateste overflade muligt, når jeg til en silikonebaseret primer. Hvis jeg bliver forberedt i løbet af dagen, når jeg til Murads InviSiblur Perfecting Shield. Det skiller sig ud til mig, da det er en primer med SPF 30. Da jeg ikke kan træde udenfor uden solbeskyttelse, er det en Godsend. Mens jeg bærer det på lette makeup dage, bærer jeg normalt alt på egen hånd. Jeg kan godt lide at det giver sikkerhed uden at få mig til at se skinnende ud. Jeg kan også lide produkter, der lader dig forstå præcist præcis, hvor meget du har forladt, da du løber tør for et vigtigt uden at forstå det var tæt på tomt, er ikke en fremragende metode til at starte dagen.

Men det kosmetiks linje af bye bye pores pressede pulvere type er.

IT Kosmetik Bye Bye Pores rødmer i naturligt ret såvel som farvel Pores presset færdiggørelse af pulver i gennemskinnelig
Jeg foretrækker at udnytte et løst pulver under mine øjne, men farvel farvel pores gennemsigtige pulver er fremragende til alle andre steder. Den rødme på den anden side er ikke ret ret for mig. Det virker, hvis jeg bruger blot et strejf, men jeg kan ikke rigtig lide at udnytte bare et strejf af ting, ved du det? Jeg kan godt lide at gå alt sammen såvel som slathering ting på min aftale med – medmindre det er fundament eller concealer. Blush er den nøjagtige samme fremragende bye bye formel, lige så godt rosa såvel som mørk. Jeg tror ikke, det melds godt med min farve, men det vil passe til en masse hudtoner fra lysbrun til medium dybt.

IT Kosmetik Bye Bye Pores rødmer i naturligt ret såvel som farvel Pores presset færdiggørelse af pulver i gennemskinnelig
Min foretrukne ren til at udnytte med det gennemsigtige pulver er den himmelske hudpulver ren # 701, som også er fra it-kosmetik. Det er chinchilla blødt, men du ved ikke chinchillas. Det føles så behageligt såvel som distribuerer produktet jævnt. Den sidste jeg kiggede, den rødme såvel som ren er specielle til farvel Bye gennembrud set på qvc, som ligeledes indbefatter det gennemsigtige pulver, bye bye undereye lyserende concealer, samt en virkelig fantastisk rensende balsam for $ 72,50.
