A new way to get loose with urban Decay
Do you ever skip loose powder because you don’t want to lug around an extra brush for touch-ups?

If so, I feel you… Also, urban Decay’s new $34 ultimate brush Off setting Powder might be of interest.

Bolthouse Salsa Ranch dressing is MAGIC. I picked it up at Target, and now I’m addicted.

A yummy, healthy snack
It’s funny to me that this is named “Salsa Ranch” because it isn’t spicy. It tastes like a blend of the best thousand island and ranch — a little tangy, a little sweet, and very tasty!

I like the Bolthouse dressings because they’re made from yogurt, and are consequently less calorically dense than most creamy dressings, so consequently I eat tons of it, which I do with whatever vegetable I’m crushing on at any given moment. (It’s delish with snap peas!)

If you could use some extra motivation to eat your veggies, then you need what Connor calls “the pink ranch dressing” in your life.

OK, so I had a major upper-lip wax fail…

Please note that waxing your ‘stach while plumbers work on an underground water leak in your front yard is inadvisable. There’s a significant chance you’ll have low-grade anxiety because you don’t know if the plumbers will have to break open the concrete to access the leaky pipe, thereby causing the budget to skyrocket, and you could also end up with a sinkhole underneath your garage…

Needless to say, my nerves were shot last Friday, and I’m fairly certain my hair got more gray than usual over that 24-hour period.

So, I’ll say it again: DON’T WAX ANYTHING IF ANYTHING like this IS HAPPENING IN YOUR FRONT YARD!

That said, for some lame reason I thought it would be a good idea, and I was so distracted that I accidentally ripped off a piece of skin on my upper lip while I was waxing.

On a positive note, I found out that double wear foundation covers up scabs pretty well. ?

Dagnabbit!
I’m wearing UD’s ultimate brush Off Powder in universal Translucent, the UD naked Honey palette on my eyes and Laura Mercier Fresh lipstick on my lips.
I’m wearing it today… Doesn’t look too bad if I don’t point it out!
