Weekend in D.C.

17 comments
I was so amped to head over to D.C. this past weekend. It was good to spend quality time with my bro, Kim, and Patrick. On Saturday, we headed over to Georgetown. I love the way this place looks! Outdoor shopping with boutiques, yes, my kind of place! We checked out some stores that we didn't have in VA beach. Then, my eyes go straight to MAC! WOO! I don't live close to a freestanding store, so I was stoked! My main reason for going is to fill my palette! Yes, MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! I only needed 5 pans, so here's what I got

1. Sumptous Olive 2. Twinks 3. Coppering 4. Antiqued 5. Texture

Geez, I also went to Sephora. I know, it's bad because I know I could have taken advantage of the Friends and Family discount, but I'm a bit impatient. I have a feeling that shipping will take forever cause of everyone else's order. I was good though, only two things! Juice Beauty eye cream, which I've been lemming and the mini Shu! (I already have the reg one!) WOO! I'll take pics when I do this!

Oh yeah, I also got my "grandma" loafers from Steve Madden! Haha, I always wear heels during the week, so it's nice to have a pair of flats to calm my feet. I needed loafers! See that gray bag? That's the freakin shopping bag that they give you when you purchase shoes. Nice eh? I'll be using this tote bag for something someday...


So, I was really impressed with me and and Kim! We went to MAC again at Fair Oaks Mall, and nothing impressed us. I guess because we were at the MAC in Georgetown the day before and we already stocked up on all the stuff we needed. By the way, I'm also impressed with the guys. They were really good while we shopped. Even though we spent forever at MAC! Oh yeah, and I was really impressed with the girl that helped us! She was soo nice! I complimented her makeup and asked what eye shadows she used, and she actually used the ones I bought! SCORE!

It was a good weekend, not only did I get most of the stuff I "needed", I also had the most mouthgasmic experience at Georgetown Cupcake. OH MY GAH! I'm dead serious, I've never had a cupcake that tasted so good. It was voted Washington's Best Cupcake! We had to pay our dues and wait 45 minutes to get these cupcakes. Yes, there was an effin line! But it went by fast! I'm glad that we also met up with Marinel and Christian too!

Now, being the heffer that I am! Yes, I took a picture with my cupcakes! PUAHAH! The last pic is of my brother and his girlfriend, Kim.

These cupcakes costs a pretty penny! For the half dozen that me and Patrick bought, we spent $15 for a half dozen. Jeff and Kim spent $30 for a dozen! EEKS! BUT! It's worth e
very penny. We all agreed that they probably sprinkle some "angel dust" on their cupcakes! We craved each cupcake and savored each taste! HAHA!

Okay, now for the last picture! Here's a picture of me and Kim's dog, Zeus! He's a good dog, he makes me want a dog! Me and Patrick really want one, but our townhome won't let us! GRRRR! One day! Lookie, we're both sportin scarves! The next pic is a picture of my hair! I usually roll my hair everyday, but this time, I decided to put it up in a ponytail! She said that it looked like one of the fake hairpieces that those Asian ladies sell at kiosks! LOL! All I need is some glittery thingies and some butterflies coming out of my hair. But no, this is not a hairpiece! This is my real hair!

I almost got my eyebrows threaded this weekend, but Kim said there wasn't much to thread! BUMMER! Anyone get it done? Better than plucking? Results? Please answer...thanks!

BUMMER about the BEARS lost. GEEZ!

So sorry for this long post, but I had a lot to say! Thanks for reading! Oh by the way, a big thank you to HaulinBroad! She fulfilled my request did a turquoise and brown eye! YAY!

Rambling and Juice Beauty

Yayee! I added music to my page. Found this band through my husband. I came home from getting my pearly whites cleaned yesterday, and he was sitting right in front of the comp listening to this band. He said that he thought about me when he heard this song. Awww.. shoooo shweett! (Hopefully he won't feel embarassed that I posted this, loovvee you!). Love the reggae sounds, it reminds me of our honeymoon in the Bahamas. Damn, I need a vacation again!

OOkay, so I have to rave about my new favorite product. I can call it my fave because I've used it for a week and a half and it has improved my skin tremendously! Everyone raved about Philosophy's Purity Cleanser, so I gave it a shot. I noticed my skin felt tight after washing, and I had red bumps around my cheeks. BLEGH! So I brought it back and bought Juice Beauty's Cleansing Milk. Oh my GAH! I love this stuff. I recommend this for people with dry and sensitive skin.

From Sephora

"As the name would imply, Juice Beauty prefers to do things the natural way. Using certified organic ingredients in their paraben-, fragrance-, and petroleum-free formulas; this line of effective cleansers, moisturizers, masks, and serums is a trailblazer in a category that's gaining serious momentum—organic beauty. Masterminded by a team of women who are passionate about living an eco-friendly lifestyle, Juice Beauty gets your skin glowing while leaving you with peace of mind. There's nothing granola about that."

I'm really interested in trying the rest of their line. But, it might be hard to let go of my moisturizer, Clinique Moisture Surge. Anyways, it smells soo good. I don't think it's recommended for oily skin, but they have other types of cleansers that might help out your skin.
