My propensity to wait until the last minute has again left me without any fabulous Memorial Day plans…
Unless Jay-Z and Bey call or I win that Mega Millions jackpot, in which case you’ll find me in the Maldives in one of those luxury huts on the water, I’m pretty much stuck at home, puttering away.
Putt, putt, putt…
Of course, Tabs loves the fact that I’m not going anywhere because it means he’ll have his assistant to kick around and assault with his 20 pounds of brute force whenever he wants.
I suppose I should be happy that he doesn’t weigh 25…
Even though I’m staying local, I’m not letting that stop me from at least looking like I went away.
I want a relaxed glow, dagnabbit!
LORAC’s new TANtalizer Glow to Go Collection couldn’t have come at a better time.
This $36 six-piece limited edition summer set covers the bases for a classic golden bronze summer glow for your eyes, cheeks and lips.
Warm-toned gals from light to dark of differing makeup ability can all WERK Glow to Go.
Each of the pieces in the set, with the exception of the dense dark chocolate Costa Rican Coffee Eye Shadow, lay down a moderate amount of pigment, so your risk of going overboard with colors? Virtually non-existent.
And if you can’t spare/bear any extra time for blending, you’re in luck. These powder products merge like perfect drivers, seamlessly blending with just a few swipes of your favorite fluffy brush.
Glow to Go is designed to create a very specific summery look — like yourself, turned up a few notches.
Probably not what I’d reach for when Kiki Glitter Las Vegas (one of several of my inner drag queen personas) wants to come out and play, but when I’m just gonna hang out at home over the weekend, it’s perfect for me.
Before I forget — as LORAC’s shadows have a super soft texture much like Urban Decay’s, they can end up sprinkled on my cheeks…
Just something to think about (don’t forget to tap any excess off your brush first).
PRICE: $36 (a $120 value)
AVAILABILITY: Limited edition, available now at Sephora and online

I got this collection a few weeks ago at Ulta and I love it! It’s a great introduction to Lorac, which I had always sampled in store but never bought anything. I’m a 3.5 in Urban Decay’s Naked foundation and I LOVE the bronzer, it’s the perfect shade and the lip gloss is so pretty!
Lauren says
Now this is the warm toned stuff I love! 🙂
