Hells yeah

This is the part where my blog post becomes a commercial.
So, a few months ago, I got this bag of free trial shit from Sephora (thank Chickie!). There was a ton of crap in there. One thing, that I saw, but kind of dismissed was the Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion.
See, I have oily skin. Like super, gross oily. This extends to my eyelids. Thus, by about noon everyday, there is a huge oily crease in the middle of my lid and by the end of the day, it’s like I never put eyeshadow on at all. And I did! I spent a good 30 minutes spackling in the morning. So, believe me when I say, I have tried TONS of lid primer in my day. Every brand. From high end to Walgreens, I’ve tried. It never, ever works. Ever. So, pardon me, if I wasn’t all gung-ho on this sample.
As I was getting ready for Michael’s Mom’s surprise party, I was pawing through the bag for something new when I spotted the sample. I decided to give it a whirl, because Hey! It couldn’t be worse, could it?
HOW ABOUT IT COULDN’T BE BETTER!?!?!


Yeah, that stuff is like MAGIC. By the end of the endless day (about 8 hours), my eye make-up looked EXACTLY the way I had done it that morning. Exactly. I was so impressed, I bought the full size, but I still kind of thought it was a hoax. Like, I was going to buy it and the sample was just a trick to sucker me in. Nope. It’s as awesome as ever. I use it everyday. And today? I wore a cream eyeshadow-usually the first thing to slide off. Still holding strong. Love it!

I now decree that you all buy this. And I wish I could say I was being paid the big bucks to write this, but let’s consider the obvious: 1) No one would pay me to to review anything because I say fuck too much 2) I have a private blog. I am not reaching the masses and 3) Let’s face it, you only do what I tell you to do when I am standing over you glowering.

So, there’s your tip for the weekend. Don’t say I never taught you anything worthwhile.

This is me at the surprise party with Michael’s sister Lisa.

Pokes on: "Hells yeah" (4)

  1. Ok, so I am not a huge makeup person, but I love the recommendations section. Never saw it before and it will now be a must read.

    But more importantly, thank you for sharing what Michael would like it if he were woman – WOW!

    P.S. You look beautiful in the pic, as always!

  2. So scared how much Sam’s sister looks like him. Seriously, though it was Sam in drag.

    D-

    I wouldn’t judge if I were you. Your kids can’t tell the difference between us

  4. I’ve been looking at that eye potion stuff and just figured it wouldn’t work.

    I will try it next time I spackle my face!
