Hi Lydia,
Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you end up doing something really fun this weekend
On April 19th, 2008 Lilan said:
Hi Abi,
Thanks for stopping by and saying hello!
I definitely won’t know Mariah Carey’s fragrance until I try it. But from what I’ve read on other blogs, it’s not all that bad! Celeb fragrances seem to have a bad rap but I agree, anything that smells like marshmallows can’t be all bad!
Are you doing anything fun this weekend? I was supposed to go to Lake Tahoe, but now I think I’m just going to lay low.
On April 19th, 2008 Lilan said:
Have a wonderful weekend too, Vanessa!
On April 19th, 2008 Lilan said:
Hi Nikki,
It’s finally Saturday morning here in San Francisco too, and you know what? I think I’m going to go makeup free today as well!
Happy weekend to you too!

Hi Elizabeth,
Thanks for saying hello! *waves across the Bay to you**
How are Prescriptives’ eye shadows? I’ve never tried any but I definitely want to soon
It’s definitely chill here this weekend – and sounds VERY windy outside! Have fun at the birthday party and I hope you get through your papers in no time so that you can enjoy the rest of your weekend
On April 19th, 2008 Lilan said:
Hi Kia!
I’m gonna do no makeup today as well
What does Innocent Illusion smell like? I have Thierry Mugler’s Angel and it’s one of my faves!
Hope you have a great weekend too and that the weather in DC is starting to warm up

Prescriptives eye shadows are great! I love the shades in particular. I dont’ really get into eyeshadows much so I can’t caompare, but I like them. Just bought some really cheap on eBay, actually. No makeup for me today either, since I won’t be leaving the house!
On April 19th, 2008 Jennifer said:
I just read this on Sat. sooooo, I don’t think my poll will count! : )
But, I’m lol at the “whatever is on my brush” comment. You are too funny! : )
On April 19th, 2008 Lilan said:
Hi Elizabeth,
I just checked out Venus on the Prescriptives website and it looks really pretty! A lovely everyday color – I think I’ll check them out soon. And thank you for reminding me about eBay! I keep forgetting that I might be able to find inexpensive makeup there
Have you tried shu uemura shadows? I love them, they’re nicely pigmented and super fine, making them easy to blend.
On April 19th, 2008 Lilan said:
Hey Jennifer,
LOL, I was just having a super lazy day yesterday when I put on my makeup that I just did the neutral colors from the eye palette, whatever was on my blush brush and an easy coral lip. It was just one of those days!
How’s the weather where you are today? It’s super windy in San Francisco – gotta pile on the lip balm so that I don’t get cracked lips!
On April 20th, 2008 Jennifer said:
Hey girl!
It’s Sunday now and it’s been raining all day. Yuck! It’s actually supposed to rain off and on until Wednesday!
Double yuck!
How’s the weather there besides windy? Did you buy anything else this weekend? : )
On April 20th, 2008 Lilan said:
Hi Jennifer,
Other than the wind, it’s actually really crisp and gorgeous with lots of sun – kinda feels like a nice fall day.
The Boyfriend and I just came back from the movies and are just relaxing now – how was the rest of your weekend?
I went on a short shopping trip yesterday and picked up Clinique’s new Almost Powder Makeup I wrote about a couple weeks ago. They had a GWP and I needed a new powder so I thought, what the heck! Did you pick up any new goodies this weekend?
On April 21st, 2008 Jennifer said:
I would die for some sunny weather, here it is still raining and it’s monday. : (
Rest of the weekend went well, going a little stir crazy with the weather though.
Bought some clothes online and did some MUA swapping…so my weekend went pretty well goodies wise!
I love a GWP too…can’t beat those!
On April 21st, 2008 Lilan said:
Hi Jennifer,
Sounds like you got a lot of fun goodies – shopping online is an amazing thing, ya? Most days I’m too lazy to go to the mall, but I can always get my fix and buy a treat for myself. You know what the best part is, sometimes I forget what’s coming in the mail so when it arrives, it’s like Christmas!
