Yummy411: Lusts, Likes, Reviews and Randomness

Did you all have enough fun viewing all of the Political Pretty FOTD's? I hope so, because I sure did. Now that we are over another weekend and I'm back, I have a few things to share. Some lusts, some likes and randomness.... Where do I start?

Let's go with LUST.

I'm LUSTing after Smashbox's Coy lip gloss (gloss on the far right) from the Wicked Lovely Fall collection. I imagine that the girl in the promo pic is wearing Coy. When I tried it on, my lips looked as succulent as hers! Great texture, no huge glitters or shimmer, just a perfect cute and sexy nude! $18

Next, I'm LIKE-ing the Stila The Front Row Look Palette.

I know this is old news, but this is technically the Fall makeup! I was never a big Stila fan; price point a bit too high, the garden party drawings not as sophisticated.... ehh I could pass. But look at this packaging! It's sleek, feminine, chic and calling my name! I was passing through Sephora and thought to swatch this collection since Specktra's Blog and Erin of Makeup Fiend are big Stila pushers. To my humble surprise, once I swatched the clouds opened and harps started playing. I wanted to sing at the highest octave. Who knew that these shadows were butter velvet and uber pigmented??? Aw man! I. MUST. HAVE! LUST or LIKE?? It doesn't matter, this is hot! (I actually swatched the other two palettes in this collection, but I'm sure this one won't disappoint!)



Now, I'm really liking the Lancome Color Fever gloss.

Here's your review! While in Marshall's bath and body section, I happened upon two lonely boxes of Lancome. Kind of odd amongst the other brand name and otherwise unfamiliar bath and body products, but hey.. who could fault them? I was skeptical since I've had trouble with another type of Lancome Fever product and the drugstore sister gloss, L'Oreal Infallible gloss, but the cosmetic whore in me didn't let this go away. This random, $8 discovery was a diamond in the rough! I got a crystal rainbow color ( name translates to clear gloss) but that's okay with me. The formula feels plush, lush and smooth! It's the appropriate thickness... yes along the lines of MAC glosses, but no where near as sticky as MAC lipglass. Can both be possible in one tube? Yes! I am so curious to try other colors to see how evenly pigmentation spreads, covers, and lasts. I'm even willing to pay the retail price. The wand is exceptional too! The bent wand with an oval head mimics a smooth, diagonal, flat surface of a new lipstick. The head has a hole in it, but it layers the products on the lips evenly. Forget those juicey tubes! Me likey!


Randomness for your reading pleasure!
Cell phone updates:

Drugstore Paparazzi hasn't been out in quite a while.

Before all of the Jemma Kid and Napoleon Periodontis, Perdonite???....came into existence at Target, I found that you could also get your Clarins and Origins there too. Does your Target have this? I haven't seen this since (or I haven't frequented this particular Target in a while), but this oddly reminds me of the Coach and LV bags that made a brief appearance on Target racks.... That wasn't in your Target either? Hmmmm...

Totally random and not beauty related. I was out at the Golden Corral (all the DMV area folks, that would be the Boulevard location) having brunch one morning. After being seated, I noticed this non sense!

All kinds of corner store goodies being sold, Baby Bottle Tops and all...

Barack Obama screen printed t-shirts....

Even a cut out of him and a photographer! All in the middle of a restaurant! Oh, I shouldn't forget to mention that the candy front was a decorative measure for the dj booth! "Awww, we got some Redskins fans in the house?! How y'all feeling this morning? Here's my jam!" Maybe I missed the sign that this was the Sunday brunch entertainment. Why people why?

I hate this time of year. I now have to split my drugstore cosmetic shopping in half to try on costume masks =(

Well, I can get in on a little fun, right? (My first Twitpic on Twitter! LOL)

How was your weekend? What cosmetic product are you lusting after?
