Ho ho ho! Yea! The Great Christmas Lemming just teleported into town, plump with pagan magic and Christmas cheer (or is that a tapeworm?). Santa dispatched him to the blogosphere to find out what everyone wants for Christmas.
The first words out of his mouth were “Eek! Eek-ack! Ack!” which, loosely translated, mean “Tell me the top 5 things on your Christmas list, and I’ll take them back with me to the North Pole.” Please leave your list in the comments. 🙂
He says he’ll take all requests into consideration and encourages you to act now (because Christmas gifts are on a first come, first served basis this year).
My Christmas Lemming List
- Coco Mademoiselle Fresh Bath Soap ($24) and Body Cream ($75)
- Diorskin Nude Natural Glow Hydrating Makeup ($45)
- NARS I Want You Lip Gloss Set ($45)
- MAC 228 Mini Shader Brush ($20)
- Urban Decay Apocalyptic Nail Kit ($26)
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

SDpfeiffy says
December 11th, 2009 at 5:29 amI’ve been trying to squelch my beauty related lemmings for about 6 months now. coincidentally, that’s when I first realized a) I’ve got more makeup than all of the women I know. Collectively. and b) I need to eliminate more debt. I’ve been pretty good (or at least, a lot better…) so I would love it if Santa would bring me:
1. Tocca Touch edp (haven’t been able to find this anywhere so maybe Santa is hoarding it?)
2. iPhone (just got an iPod Touch for work and am in lurve.)
3. Lorac eyeshadow set
4. cleaning service (just every other week for a couple of hours)
5. a peaceful, stress free holiday
Not too much to ask, eh?

Steph B says
December 11th, 2009 at 3:05 pmI’m a Hanukkah kinda girl so one of my wish list items magically appeared tonight — Stila Convertible eye color in Stone.
Still on the list–
1. Hourglass lip gloss in Verse — tried this at Sephora today and am in lust. A gorgeous bronzy-peach that feels amazing. Truly the slickest gloss I’ve ever tried. But I just couldn’t bring myself to spend $28 on gloss.
2. UD 24/7 liners in Rockstar and Stash. Such pretty colors, such crazy prices.
3. Laser hair removal — I’m so over shaving, threading, waxing, oh my.
4. Microdermabrasion – My skin could use a pick me up. Winter is not my skin’s thing.
5. A new everyday office eye shadow wardrobe. I like easy washes of sheer color but am a little bored with my go-tos BB Heather and Stone.
