I’m all for a bargain, however the budget plan versions of some things can be all kind of wrong, like “discount laser eye surgery” as well as “bargain basement tattoos.”
غير جيد.

My preferred offers are on products I lust after as well as love, like Kate Spade bags, those $20 passes for 20 classes at the yoga studio down the street, as well as 2-for-1 specials on Tuttimelon fro-yo.
And now, thanks to Milani’s long-lasting as well as intensely pigmented new Powder Shadows, I can add a new line of drugstore eyeshadows to the list.

More Powder Eyeshadows
With these new Powder Shadows, Milani integrated two of my favorite-est things — punchy pigments as well as killer wear time (8-10 hours for me) — as well as they handled to do it for less than the cost of a soy chai latte.
ليس سيئًا.
Available in 12 shades as well as a mix of shimmery as well as matte completes (I believe the mattes take the show), the line even features a few possible MAC dupes, like Pitch Black, which kinda resembles MAC print to me, as well as French Vanilla, which reminds me of Brule.
Pearl might most likely pass for Ricepaper, as well as Caramel brown resembles a somewhat nuttier version of Woodwinked.
And two of the brightest shades in the group, Shocking Pink as well as Olympian Blue, might have come out of Dolce & Gabbana based on exactly how silky smoove they feel.

For a quick hit of color, I like to pat a peck of Shocking Pink as well as Olympian Blue along my lash lines with a small, flat eyeshadow clean (love the MAC 239), however if strong eyes are more your thing (go on with your poor self, girl!), you might sweep either color into the crease, as well as blend, blend, blend.
If you choose to bring these home, you may want to pick up some additional makeup wipes. With these I do notice some fallout, especially from the shimmers.

The shimmers don’t seem as finely milled as the mattes, as well as they like to latch on to my lower lash lines.
It’s not the worst after effects I’ve ever seen as well as doesn’t truly get on my nerves, however it may be something to keep in mind.
As is the cost per ounce. These pans are quite huge at 0.11 ounces each, which is about twice the size of a 0.05-ounce eyeshadow pan from MAC. That works out to about $54 per ounce, versus $300 per ounce for MAC (incidentally, solid silver bullion is about $28.50 per ounce). A fantastic offer thinking about their wear time as well as the amount of pigment you get.
PRICE: $5.99 each
AVAILABILITY: offered now solely at CVS/Pharmacy stores as well as on the internet at milani.com
MAKEUP as well as beauty blog RATING: A- (I do spot a bit fallout, however no huge deal)
Well color me clueless
Castello di Amorosa Winery in Napa Valley
I just realized it’s Memorial Day weekend! — which means El Hub gets Monday off from work.
Hmm… I’m not sure what we’ll do for the holiday. perhaps drive as much as Napa if the weather’s nice. It’s about a 45-minute drive.
Have you ever been to the Napa Valley before? We go every so often, however I haven’t been wine tasting as well many times. If you understand of any type of great wineries, let me know.
Dining at Bistro Jeanty in Yountville, 2009; notice the dark hair! I type of miss it…
