Pigments! The Body Needs

Mondays are pretty whack aren't they? BLEGH! Anyways, so when I came home on Friday, I had a little package waiting for me. Ailene told me about http://www.thebodyneeds.com/. I'm really not big into pigments. I only have one pigment, which is GoldStroke and I got that from CCO. The color payoff with using pigments are always good, so I thought I would give this website a shot. I have to admit, I was a bit hesistant. I've read mix reviews so I was a bit nervous. But I figured, $1.59 for a 1/4 tsp of a pigment? Not bad at all. 1/4 tsp. doesn't sound much, but the website says you can probably get 25-30 uses from it. I don't doubt it one bit, it already takes for-ev-er just to go through one regular pigment jar!

I don't want to make this entry so picture heavy, so just click to enlarge... =)

Well the good thing about today is that my Sephora package comes in!! WOOO! No worries, I'll post! Keep an eye out for that too!

So everyone has been raving about Mandom makeup remover, and now I'm anxious to try it. My sis-in-law, Patricia even ordered it online. Hmmm, so I've decided to order online too! Me and Janelle decided to collabo on our orders so instead of each of us paying $10 bucks for shipping, we can just pay $11 bucks for the both of us! Smart cookies, aren't we? I'm so excited to try this out, it's oil-free, fragrance-free, alcohol-free, and no-color is added. Two to three pumps is all you need! Plus, it tones your skin while cleansing! I'm SOLD!

My Clinique's Cleansing Balm is almost out, so I'm in need of a new makeup remover. Plus, Mandom is soo much cheaper than Clinque. Actually, eh, nevermind, not with shipping. Okay, seriously, no more product buying (unless it's a necessity, not a want! PUAHA). Me and the husby starting Christmas shopping already and it feels good to get stuff done right away. At least we won't be rushing last minute.

What do you use to remove your makeup? Oh yeah, and if you tried Mandom, let me know if you love it or hate it!

Ooh pretty colors! I have yet to order from bodyneeds. I dunno, I just don't need anymore pigments right now! Maybe later.

I'm sad you didn't find Mandom at Grand Mart. I guess I'll have to order it online too. Dangit!

Right now I use Neutrogena Oil-free makeup remover. It's ok, I want something stronger! I used my DHC Deep Cleansing Oil last night. It broke me out the first time I used it, but I thought it might work well with my Shiseido brush. Cross your fingers with me that it doesn't wreak havoc on my skin! HAHA.

ooo yay u got yourself some Mandom, isn't it YUM!!!??!?

Janelle said...

Yes, I've worked hard to build self control. It's so easy to want to buy everything in sight, but honestly I don't want to be stuck at home forever haha! I need to save for the future. Sigh. It sucks being a grown up sometimes, doesn't it?

And oh yah, look at that rock on your finger! I want to get a better look at it. ;)

Those pigments look so good, but I'm always iffy because I don't know how well they will apply and adhere =/

Thanks for the lovely comment!! I need to practice putting on falsies as well, but first I need to go out and get some DUO glue!
