"Look, something shiny!"

I promised this blog wouldn't turn into a pity party and it kind of has...so let's lighten the mood.


I'm pretty bummed because I've bee able to get lip gloss (one of my favorite things in the WORLD) for dirt cheap from Victoria's Secret.  I am obsessed with their beauty rush lip gloss but I would never pay full price for it because I don't spend $7 on lip gloss.  Howev, I've been able to take advantage of some freakishly good coupon deals and get them for about $1.  Anywho, I'm all out and haven't seen any deals as of late.  Boooo.

Today I found a coupon for Rimmel Royal gloss and thought I'd give it a whirl.  It was on sale and after a coupon, I paid $2 and I am VERY happy with it.  It is very glossy and yummy smelling.

I'm a bit of a lip gloss snob because all lip glosses are NOT created equal.  I once had a friend give me some from Lancome and I was in heaven...

 But, those are about $10 per tube.  Once again--not gonna happen.  So, my Rimmel will have to suffice.

Oh, and while I'm thinking about Victoria's Secret...for what it's worth, this is my very favorite scent in the entire world right now.  I NEVER use an entire bottle of something before getting sick of it and I've used this up in a year.  And now it's gone.  My birthday can't come fast enough...
