On (1. Favorite day of the week) night I had the most wonderful dream.
I went to the MAC counter and all of the sudden, (2. Favorite drag queen) showed and started (3. Verb ending in –ing).
“Hey (4. Your nickname),” she called. “I got some goodies for you.”
She then proceeded to take out the entire collection of MAC Mattene and Matte 2, and handed it all to me in a (5. Favorite gem stone)-encrusted basket.
All of the sudden, out of nowhere appeared (6. Current celebrity crush). He was holding a (7. Noun) and (8. Verb ending in –ing).

Karen says
LOL, Christine, you can’t wait ’till we go on Saturday?
Okay full disclosure…I was going to stop by my local freestanding today too!
Karen says
Yay, Cincyfan! You have such good taste in celebrity hotness.
Don’t you love how he runs around in American Psycho just wearing hi-tops and carrying a chainsaw?
Okay, maybe that’s just me…
Karen says
Hi Vanessa! You are too cute. I’ve heard of the CULT OF PARROT. I need to get on that train. What do you pair it with?
Christine says
JUST to finish out my Mattene swatches & review!
I picked up Tango, because I felt bad kind of sort of. Apparently the store got called and was told to pull the display, but since I had called earlier about it, they still let me look at it. I felt bad! Damn sympathy buys.
Karen says
Aww, c’mon Hessah! You should totally post your list! I actually confessed to being called “Bratasaurus Rex.” You honestly can’t get any more embarassing than that!
Vanessa says
Hi Karen, I pair Parrot with either Jewel Blue if I wanna make it all teal, or be crazy with it and pair it with a soft purple, either Creme de Violet or Milani’s “Shock”, sometimes pair it with a nice shimmery pigment (applied wet), then contour my eye by putting a darker color on the crease…so many different ways to play with it but all these collections are making me broke! Damn MAC…they are geniuses I tell you!
Karen says
Christine, Tango makes me think of “I Love NY”, ha ha ha.
BTW, I missed the finale of Rock of Love the other night.
Karen says
Hey hubby,
You better *not* be lovin’ on the cubic zirconia.
Girls like sparkly things…but not the fake sparkly things.
xoxo!
Karen says
Thanks for the heads up Vanessa! I am probably one for the more subtle pairings (I’m really trying to get over my fear of brights) but it sounds very pretty. Will have to definitely get a pan when it comes out! 😉
Vanessa says
Haha I feel you Karen! I actually was always very neutral since I used to work at Forever 21 years ago, we were only allowed to wear black at the time, so you can imagine my wardrobe was ALL black, makeup was only white, grey, and black. So smoky looks all the time! I too was scared to venture out in the bold world of color, but now I can’t imagine going back! lol.
I also noticed you and I both watch the same shows, that’s neat! I have a tendency to watch shows no one really watches because they are so called “lame” (The Hills), but heck I love em! And yeah who won Rock of Love??! I didn’t like Heather, I was for Jess. And I am not sure if you watched it yet, but “Gossip Girl” is quite addicting too! I also hear NY is having a second show….aiya that girl….
Christine says
LOL! I know, it’s sad that the name is still sticking.
Oh, you did not. It’s Sunday at 9pm last I checked!
Last time was some dumb clip show.
Karen says
OH!!! I hate that I’m actually relieved! I saw on the tivo guide that it was on the other night and i just assumed it was the finale.
He better pick that big burly stripper girl. Although Jess is waaaay cuter.
And I’ll never forgive you for introducing this show into my life.
Christine says
I was so excited thinking it was the finale, but NOPE!
lol, why are you rooting for Heather (the stripper!)?
I am, but only because I think Jes has some hidden “I want my 15 minutes of fame” motive, plus she’s so young. He’s old!
Don’t worry, you’re not the first. My boyfriend curses me every time it’s on!
Karen says
We also have I Love NY 2 just around the corner…do you feel your brain turning into mush? I do.
I’m not exactly Pro-Heather, but there’s something right about the pairing, like peanut butter and chocolate. And I agree. Jess is way too young for him! EWWW!
One of my good friends, Mar, watches it too. She suspects that Heather won because she watched an interview with Heather and she was already talking about Bret was her man.
Christine says
I can’t wait for I Love NY 2! Ohh, I love you trash TV. Thank you, VH1, for providing such awful television.
Yeah, I agree, something is just right about it.
We’ll see! I’m just happy crazy Lacey went home. I had enough of her!
Karen says
Wow, Vanessa…I have a hard time imagining you in neutrals, just because I love seeing your beautiful and colorful FOTDS!
When you started venturing into color, did you go slowly or was it a full on plunge?
Ohhh, and yes, bad TV! I have an plethora of guilty indulgences. As you can tell from the earlier discussion between me and Christine, the Rock of Love finale isn’t till Sunday (thanks, Christine for getting the day and time for us! I have it in my crackberry!) so my bad. Jess seems way cuter and nicer but I dunno if she’s trashy enough for Bret.
The Hills: I’m so TEAM ELODIE at the moment. And what was Whitney thinking going out with the band the night before?
I Love NY 2: Okay, so I can’t wait for Sister Patterson to bust out her antics. And NY should’ve picked CHANCE the first time around. They were meant for each other.
OH! I saw the promos for Gossip Girl the other day and it looked GOOD. God I love mind numbing television…
Karen says
LACEY = CRAAAAZY! I just saw the episode the other day when they go to Vegas and Lacey gets on the bar and then falls promptly off! I just about died of laughter, lol!
