NYC Blushable Creme Stick

If you haven't tried these yet, you MUST. These are my favorite drugstore buy that I've come across in the last year. Plaza Pink on the cheeks - 2nd from right - looks peach-ish and does come off like NARS Orgasm on the cheeks.

These are $3-$5 depending on where you go. I have seen the best selection at Rite Aid but I know that varies by area / store. The color pay off is everything it should be, the texture is right - not too creamy/creasy, not dry. You can easily apply with fingers / sponge / or brush. I like the MAC 168 for cream blush. The darker colors would be fabulous on darker skinned ladies, who I think have a hard time finding high pigment items like these. Similar to a NARS multiple with out the price tag. And I actually think they are better.

These are a MUST BUY. There is not a huge price commitment and I have yet to hear of anyone who didn't LOVE them. Hard Candy makes something similar and well... you can pass on those. I will post a review on those also.

HOW YOU DOIN' ?!!

I don't watch Dancing with the Stars, American Idol, Survivor or any of that, but I WILL be watching my GIRL CRUSH ( sorry Paula Deen ) WENDY WILLIAMS - WIN HER WAY TO THE TOP on Dancing with the Stars. I have high hopes for my girl Wendy. I love her. She can do it. I wonder how much taller she is than her partner, hmmmm.. I see she is bending her legs quite a bit here in this pic, and I KNOW for a fact she weighs more than him. Wendy divulged her weight on her show a while ago, I think she said 185 - and guess what, at about 6 feet tall, I think thats just fine.

GO WENDY GO WENDY !! I will be calling in to vote also. We're going ALL THE WAY with this one !!!!

Review for Suave Dry Shampoo

I am a dry shampoo FANATIC. I have tried several. "THE ONE" is $25 a can, and doesn't last that long and goes by the name of FURTERER. The one really bad thing about this, is I've purchased 2 cans and have had had the product completely disappear w/o me even using it. How this is even possible, I don't know. But I want Furterer to explain it to me. When they do, I will advise ( Please let me know if this has happened to any of you ).

I have looked for this ever since I saw its name pop up on MUA - Make Up Alley, for those who don't know. I just got it at Target. Its ok. Its along the lines of Tresemme. Which I don't care for so much.
I have tried - FURTERER, OJON, BATISTE, OSCAR BIANDI, and TRESEMME.

Sadly SADLY Furterer makes your hair look like you just washed it, and you can go another 3 days or something. Since its this good, I should just use it, but with it magically disappearing out of the can ( TWICE ) I can't buy it anymore. Ojon is the next best so far.

I think TiGi makes one, and I just read about Victoria's secret making one. I don't know. I want Aveda to make once since I use all Aveda primarily anyway, but so far no luck.

Let me know if anyone has tried anything they love that I have not listed / hated above.
