Hey girls, sorry for no update in a while. Last week, I was redoing my whole room (packing, painting, the works) and then I went to buy new furniture and then school started. Can we say: Hectic? Yes well I will update very, very soon. School just started today and I already have a paper to write. Hopefully none of you guys have given up hope on my updates. I'll try to come back with so many more updates ASAP! In the meantime, post a comment on this blog about what you want to read more about. It might be more product reviews or more discounts and deals. Whatever it is, I will read each request and try to give you guys what you want to see.

Later!

Go to Macy's to receive your free gift with any Estee Lauder purchase of $27.50 or more. The whole package is worth $75 so trust me, it is a steal!

"Choose the lip and eye shades, either warm or cool. Choose the skin repair serum you want, a 7-day supply of New Perfectionist [CP+] Wrinkle Lifting Serum or Idealist Pore Minimizing Skin Refinisher. Take home 2 chic bags, the luminous new fragrance every woman wears her way, Estee Lauder Sensuous, the Estee Lauder Projectionist, and Take It Away Total Makeup Remover. Just say Gift Me!"

I haven't smelled the new fragrance but I will soon. Though, I have no doubt it won't smell good. My mom loves all of Estee Lauder's fragrances so you can say that I grew up with the scents.. All of them! That's why I know I will smell it soon.

So, any of you trying to find products from Estee Lauder to buy so you can qualify to get the gift? You still have time to decide what you want as it doesn't start until Sept. 1, 2008. The Gift Time offer ends Sept. 20, 2008 though quantities are limited so you should act fast!

Following MAC's Cult of Cherry, Overrich is rich in color. The colors are available for a limited time only.

"Fall for luscious. Eight pigments that keep you de-lovely and delicious as ever. Oxidized, rich-metal hues are a cakewalk to apply, for eyes, face and all the sweet spots...These Overrich pigments satisfy an appetite for glamour."

I think the colors are gorgeous and the remind me of a mix of Cult of Cherry and nude colors but that's probably just me. Well, the colors are Blonde's Gold, Heritage Rouge, Copperbeam, Vintage Gold, Antique Green, Museum Bronze, Mega-Rich, and Mauvement.

Tip #4: Set your thermostat a few degrees lower in the winter and a few degrees higher in the summer to save on heating and cooling costs.

Tip #5: If you eat meat, add one meatless meal a week. Meat costs a lot at the store-and it's even more expensive when you consider the related environmental and health costs. Now, I am not telling you to change your whole diet, though eating less pork and beef would help you loose weight, but at least one meatless meal a week would be something new from the same-old lame-old, right?

Tip #6: Donate or recycle your cell phones, computers, and other electronic appliances responsibly when the time comes. E-waste contains mercury and other toxics and is a growing environmental problem. If the electronics end up in land fill, the appliance will release the mercury causing the soil to become contaminated. Now, is that really what we want?
