Goodbye, Metallique

This lipstick was hard to let go of because it was one of my first investments in department store make up and I loved it so. I remember Kieu going with me to Macy's and how she said I looked really happy when I decided on this color at the counter.

Lancome Metallique looked great on me. Similar to my lipcolor but metallicized. A nude Pinky-gold. I may have to repurchase this shade one day.

Mary Kay Eye Primer

Love that it comes in a squeeze tube. (Clean!)

Don't like that it has parabens.

But it does work wonderfully. And I have greasy eyelids. I was convinced they simply didn't hold eyeshadow.

I will start a search for a cheaper primer, though. You don't get much for $13. Preferably also without parabens. But also in a squeeze tube. We'll see! I'm also wondering what I will do when the product begins to run low... how will I get the rest out of the tube in a sanitary manner???
