#5 Starbucks Venti, One Splenda, No foam Latte
This really needs no explanation except why they spelled my name like this, for which I have no answer.
#4 Tarte - Lights, Camera, Flashes™ Statement Mascara
What it is:
Why I love it:
An amped up, ultrablack mascara that lengthens, curls and magnifies lashes for an intensified look, while instantly increasing lash volume by up to 752 percent.
It really does magnify my lashes. And I love the wand. It has a harder bristle than most to help comb out my lashes.
#3 Tarte - Best In Faux Extending Fibers
What it is:
An easy-to-apply, faux lash system with sculpting fibers that enhance lash length and volume to create the appearance of false eyelashes.
Why I love it:
I really wanted to try that OTHER “Lash Extender” out there on the streets, but I thought it looked just too spidery. I stumbled across this at Ulta and I LOVE it. I love that it looks natural, it’s easy to apply, and that if I run out I can just go pick up some more at the store without having to order it AND the mascara together.
ASCP is a decorative paint developed by Annie Sloan for which she is credited in starting the painted furniture revolution in recent times.
Why I love it:
Chalk Paint® is very easy to work with. It very rarely requires any preparation, such as sanding or priming, and can be used indoors or outside, on just about any surface - from wood to metal, and matt plastic to terracotta. It can revitalise old furniture, walls, ceilings and floors with ease. It's easy, fun and makes amazing results accessible to everyone.
And finally....
#1 Online Auctions!!!
What is it:
Have you discovered online auctions? It's total Crack. I can't get enough! It's hands down my most favorite thing in the world right
now. I can’t stop. I have filled up our garage with unloved and
underutilized pieces that I have high hopes for. My husband says that our garage looks like a
thrift store hit it. You be the judge:
Why I love it:
I can bid on a piece, walk away, take the kids to the bathroom (they are FOUR, not FOURTEEN), feed them, break up fights, and when I come back I know if someone has outbid me. The online auction takes place over a couple of days so you don't have to stand out in the heat and bid on something under duress!!! I take these pieces that need some love and use Ms Annie Sloan's paint to make them beautiful again!
My favorite online auction is Rusty By Design
