An Attack on Bordeom

I took it out on Rite Aid.

I bought LOreal Color Juice lip gloss in Candy Apple (AWESOME color for a MAC C8 like myself) because I only had neutral lip colors and I wanted a color, Maybelline Cool Effect Cooling Eye Shadow/Liner in On the Rocks- which is like a coppery brown shimmer because I wanted more subtle sparkly liner (not that I ever use liner GASP (!) a Desi girl without her Kajal I know), Maybelline Line Stlyist  Eyeliner in Onyx- because I decided to try black eyeliner again, and Define-A-Lash Volume Mascara in Very Black (which I later exchanged for  The Colossal Volume Express Mascara).

I also bought a York Peppermint Patty(because I hadn’t eaten chocolate in a looooooooong time and that DOES THINGS TO YOU- and because it’s the healthiest chocolate available) and a tin of  Dark  Chocolate Dipped Altoids (at 7-8 calories per piece) to satisfy any other chocolate cravings I have in the future.

I was generally impressed with all of my makeup purchases: the gloss was awesome and not sticky and  a pretty color, the cooling eyeliner is pretty and seems OK- I haven’t really used it yet, the stylist liner is AWESOME- it lets you draw very precise lines and stays put (I had a mild breakdown *the chocolate I tell you* and it didn’t budge through the crying).  The Define-A-Lash Volume Mascara was very disappointing, especially since I had heard so many great things  about it, my LOreal Bare Natural Mineral gave  me more volume.  However, The Colossal Volume Express  Mascara lived up to it’s name (although 9x the volume is a stretch) and I am currently in love with it.

I’m haven’t worn black pencil eyeliner in a LONG time, but I think it suits my new haircut (think Rihanna- the first asymmetrical, angled one)- so I’ve gone Desi girl again. 

The chocolate was very good too (although, I don’t think I’ll be craving sugar for a while).

OH and I discovered these Mini-Dumplings (of the Asian variety- Pot Stickers for those of you who didn’t grow up in a city that’s 70% Asian)  at my local H Mart that literally cook in 3  minutes and are 240 calories per 15  pieces

They make me  happy!

Also, it’s FREEZING (i.e. 50 degrees F- I know, I’m a spoiled  Californian brat) here in SoCal! Brrrrr…   Almost makes me not want to go to the gym, almost.

Off the the aforementioned place!
