A Decade in Make-up

When I was 17 I wore MAC Rebel lipstick paired with clear lip glass on top.  This was before tinted lipglass – Way before.  This was back when lip glass was the ‘must have’ make-up product for any girl who didn’t seem to mind if the occasional bug got stuck to her lip.  What’s a bug on the lip when you look good? It’s protein right?

Here is a picture from my 17th birthday:

I grew up in New York.  That should explain the Drag Queen lap dance which is possibly confusing to some of you.  And yes, I am wearing Rebel lipstick in this photo.

Earlier this month I turned 27.  

That’s a decade in make-up.  A decade of discovering brands and products that would eventually become essentials in my career.

Here’s a photo from my 27th birthday.  Check the birthday flan :-)

10 years after my 17th birthday, I’m still on top of what’s hot in make-up.  See my eye make-up?  It’s from Urban Decay.  It’s a new cream shadow…Not available until SPRING 2009.

Jealous?  You totally should be.  They are amazing, and very few people have them.  I have ALL 12 COLORS.

Full Review and color preview coming TOMORROW!

    Forget what lipstick you were wearing. You seem to have not worn a TOP to Lucky Cheng’s, missy.

    I am wearing a top. It’s just a very small one. It was the 90s! Come on!

    I can’t wait to find out about these new shadows…

    I say you haven’t lived in NYC until you get a lap dance from a Drag Queen :-)

    Amen! Eunice, that is SO TRUE.
