I'm having more surgery tomorrow morning, nothing major, but I'll be recovering for a couple days. Normally I do a little "retail therapy" when this kind of thing comes around, but I am in MEGA money-saving mode right now (good for me, right?)
Well, I still needed to do a little bit of frugal splurging (I just made up that concept, I'm sure) so I got myself a stack of magazines (Elle, Vogue, Vanity Fair, Lucky...) and decided to hit one of my favorite online stores - meet mark.
Great makeup (and now skincare too), fragrance and hair care, at extremely reasonable prices. He also offers hook-ups, one of my FAVORITE things in the world - I can carry around a facsimile of an entire makeup case in my purse. I've got eyeliner and eyeshadow on one, lip gloss and acne spot treatment on another. He also has brushes now, which is very cool.
And right now, meet mark has free shipping with an order of $35 or more.

great product alert
Laura Mercier's hydrating foundation primer has changed my daily face routine. Since I've been using it (about 10 days- and you only need a tiny amount per day) I have noticed a marked difference in my skin. I don't even feel like I need foundation anymore! It smooths, shrinks pores and moisturizes without leaving an oily residue, or feeling thick. It also hasn't caused any breakouts or redness - a true miracle, as I have extremely sensitive and breakout-prone skin.
After I put it on, my skin immediately feels much softer, smoother and somehow cooler... perfect for the mid-winter doldrums I've been having - my skin has been alternately overly dry and overly oily, with increased redness and some breakouts. But the primer does exactly what it advertises - it makes foundation and powder go on more easily, last longer, and look more natural. I've noticed better coverage and "stamina" out of my foundation (I use Clinique SPF 15 redness solutions makeup), to the point where I'm no longer using concealer.
Sephora currently has Laura Mercier's hydrating foundation primer in the 3.4oz size for only $40 (for a limited time), so get it while you can.
