Yesterday agent El Hub as well as I brought a small, somewhat sad-looking tree back to headquarters, ran twinkling white lights around a couple of interior windows and, while not directly associated to the mission, watched two films, Water for Elephants as well as The Debt, both of which we liked.

After analyzing the offered intelligence, director Tabs felt that today would be a much better day to embellish the tree, so agent El Hub as well as I will initiate “Protocol: Light Strings” after the morning briefing.

WITH TOCCA’S small TO GO EAU DE PARFUMS,
YOU CAN in shape TUSCANY IN THE palm OF YOUR HAND

“Who states bigger’s always better?” asks the 5-foot-1 woman typing this sentence. (Incidentally, she’s usually the shortest person in the room.)

The new $15 Tocca To Go mini Eau de Parfums integrate teeny, small cuteness with Tocca’s signature fresh as well as teasing floral scents.

I stumbled upon three of these minis at the shopping center yesterday while cruising for Christmas tchotchkes. They were right next to a weird $500 white porcelain equine head in Anthropologie (so extremely Godfather!) as well as surrounded by a sea of $50 salt-and-pepper shakers.

Aren’t they cuter than cupcakes? Controllato più …

A exposing look AT NYX’S NEW
CLOTHING OPTIONAL PALETTE, BUTT naked EYES

Butt why, NYX!? Why so cheeky?

I can’t state I ever expected to see the words “butt” as well as “naked” appear on a makeup palette, butt there they are — all saucy as well as snarky on the front of Butt “Naked” Eyes, NYX’s new $25 holiday combination for the face, eyes as well as cheeks.

Judging by the name at least, it appears like the line had fun putting together this two-tiered combination of eyeshadows, blushes, a bronzer as well as highlighters, butt about that name…

LOL! Ok, mi fermerò.

I couldn’t assist however notice that the name shares a word in typical with the just recently released Naked2 from metropolitan Decay. Controllato più …

MAC UNSUNG HEROES
MAC RED LIPSTICK

The holidays are in full effect, y’all, as well as red lipsticks are in the mutha’ truckin’ houtilizzo! Of course, I couldn’t fail to remember to include one of the most party-poppin’ colors in MAC’s long-term line, the bright, bold, gorgeous MAC Red ($14.50).

If you like MAC Russian Red, you just may like its cousin. A bright bluish red with the subtlest semblance of shine, MAC Red grooves on lips with a modicum of magenta that keeps it lively as well as always down to party. Controllato più …

ON second THOUGHT, I really ADORE
MAC CLEANSE OFF OIL/TRANQUIL

When I discover myself tapping an almost empty plastic bottle upside down against the side of the sink to coax out the last few drops of this product, or zipping to the shopping center minutes before it closes to pick up a spare as well as coming house with not one however two replacement bottles — that’s when I understand it’s most likely time to throw my arms up in the air, spin around in circles as well as sing at the top of my lungs like Maria does at the beginning of the noise of Musica…

“The hills are alive…” with the noise of MAC Cleanse Off Oil/Tranquil!

Err — so perhaps my version of the tune doesn’t have rather the exact same sound to it as Maria’s, however I still believe this stuff is awfully amazing. Epic, even.

It’s a mineral oil-free makeup cleaner designed to whisk away face, lip as well as eye makeup, as well as it does such a great task on hard-to-remove products that I seldom feel the requirement to utilize it with a secondary cleanser. Controllato più …

TO PREP FOR holiday TRAVEL

2011 will go down in my diary as the Year of the Suitcase. I took a overall of five trips this year, which is nothing, I know, compared to hard-core travelers, however it was a great deal for me.

And one great side impact of those trips was that they required me to upgrade my approach to packing. I went from starting the year as a competitor for “Crappiest Packer Ever,” as well as ended it as a middleweight semi-pro packer with a handful of new tricks.

If you have plans to fly (or drive) over the next few weeks, right here are three things you can do to eek out a few more cubic feet for makeup as well as beauty in your luggage.

TIP NO. 1: I’m a gal with a weakness for products, as well as there’s only so much space in those TSA-approved plastic baggies. By filling up bit sample jars with your must-have skincare as well as other liquid products, you can fill your enabled plastic bag to the brim. Controllato più …
