Random Thoughts for the Weekend.

I hope you are enjoying the weekend. I am, as it is my very first weekend without a zillion plans - and it feels so nice to be able to just sort of lazy around. It leaves me feeling exhilarated.

Yesterday was a beautiful day. It was sunny and warm... It was the perfect day to get the convertible out of the garage and take it for a spin. Has anyone ever noticed that convertibles and lipgloss just do not go together? Besides the fact that my hair gets all blown to pieces - the thing that bothers me most is the hair flying into and sticking onto the lips. There has to be a solution. I think I need to get a pretty Pucci silk scarf to tie around my tresses. My husband suggested I not wear lipgloss. Um - that is clearly not an option, which I made him well aware of and quick.

 

Now today is is dark and gray outside and I need to bring that feeling of Spring back. I think I am going to start by throwing a few highlights into my hair this morning - for that really it is almost summer even though spring just began feeling. And I need to get on with the spring makeup. I hate getting stuck in a makeup rut. I mean, I am constantly trying new products, and have posted about many of them already, but I feel I have settled into a pretty neutral looking face that can get me from morning to night. I am definitely going to clean out my cosmetic drawer in the bathroom to bring in a fresh new crop of products to start wearing today. What are some of your favorite new products for spring this year? Let me know in the comments what you are changing up already.

Finally, I cannot believe how many times I put down the new breed of mascaras that move - particularly Estee Lauder's Turbo Lash and Lancôme’s Ôscillation . These mascaras have rocked my eyelash world like no other. If you have not tried either of these beauties yet - you must! I am working up the courage to attempt another little beauty video, but in the meantime you need to get on the bandwagon with me. Seriously - my lashes have never looked so long and full - and both brands are equally amazing.

Enjoy the rest of the day and stay tuned for another great giveaway I have scheduled to start the beginning of the week.

P.S. Did you notice a bit of a new look here? I felt like Spring-ing it up a bit and making my header a little more focused for Beautiful Makeup Search. I also had quite a few readers comment on how hard it was to see the light blue and light pink font color I had, so Iswitched it up just a bit. The blue is now a gray/almost black and the pink is brighter - just like the season. Anyway, I hope you like it.
