How amazing do those crystal clear waters look? It’s that time of year for summer vacations and unfortunately I don’t have any big trips planned in the near future. But if I did have something planned, I’d definitely consider Mexico as a destination I’d love to visit. And I’m not talking about beyond-the-CA-border Baja or Ensenada. I’m talkin’ about the “real”Mexico – Cozumel or going to the Mayan Ruins.

So what if you could win a trip for two to Mexico? You’d jump at the opportunity, no? Of course you would so what are you waiting for? To play the Meet Me in Mexico contest, head on over to Glam.com and guess the destination in the photo above for your chance to win!

Then come back to The Daily Cookie each week where I’ll post a new photo for additional chances to win. The contest lasts for four weeks and every correct answer each week will enter you in a pool where a winner will be chosen at random at the end of the promotion.

Hey MAC lovers, if you liked MAC’s Strobe collection from earlier this year featuring the awesome tinted lip balms with SPF in them, you’re gonna like MAC Tendertones, out on counters now.

MAC is bringing these little potted lip balms with SPF 12 back for the summer in six new colors and four re-promoted shades. Since these are creamier than the tinted balms that come in a tube, you might like Tendertones if you prefer something that’s a little more emollient and longer lasting – these hot babies are made with shea butter in them!

While I like the color varieties of these lippies – there really is a shade in this bunch for everyone to wear on a daily basis, they’re pretty sheer upon application. The other thing is, if you know me, you know that I don’t like to stick my finger in it to use it. However, from the looks of the consistency, it’s pretty creamy and would probably be easier applied with a lip brush of sorts, especially if you’re a sanitation freak like I am when it comes to lip products.

Happy Friday everyone!

Are you all dolled up and ready to head out for some Sex? .. and the City, I mean!

I’m super excited to check out the movie this weekend but as I mentioned yesterday, I can’t go until tomorrow. So to alleviate my anxiety, I tried to spruce up my makeup today with subtle touches of color. Looking at the photos, it’s not as bright as it is when I’m out and about, but you get the idea – yes?

It’s inspired from Prescriptives’ Urban Heat summer collection photo since I want to punch up my summer makeup with a bit of color. I really love the teal eye liner. I was expecting it to be more of a blue, but the teal actually suits my tastes better as I think I can use it in more fun looks aside from the traditional navy.   (more…)
