Friday Favs

Ok, was it just me or was today the hardest day ever to wake up?!  I hit the snooze button until the last.possible.second. and it was definitely "one of those days" @ the cafe today.  Which makes me even happier that next week = our full week vacation to Brewster!  I cannot even begin to tell you how excited I am.  Knowing that there was a vacation light at the end of the tunnel is what kept me going this week!  
I plan do to a lot of sleeping in and hanging with the family.  



I haven't done a Favorite Things Friday in a few weeks because honestly I didn't have any life altering products to share.  But now I do.  
Life Altering Product #1
Ok, so maybe a Kinect isn't "life altering" but it's pretty dang sweet.  The thing I love most about the Kinect is that there is NO remote or controller, you are the controller.  We all worked up a pretty good sweat after playing it for a few hours, which is probably the main reason why I like it.  I'm not a big gamer.  My favorite game so far is Dance Central, it is especially fun to play after a few cocktails! 

 Another cool feature is that it is has a voice control start, I literally say "x-box" and it perks up... I feel like I'm in the Jetsons.  


Life Altering Product #2
highlighter/blush
First off, how come nobody ever told me about highlighter/blush?!  I recently bought Smashbox's soft lights in Shimmer and HOLY COW it is aaaaamazing.  It gives your skin the perfect healthy glow, I love putting it on my cheek bones/ brow bones for a little luminescent dewiness.  My sister got a sample of benefit's highbeam as a bonus the last time she went shopping for makeup and gave it to me.  It is also a great product, but I think it is meant to be used with a liquid foundation because sometimes when I put it over my BareMinerals it looks like a hot mess.  Anyways, bottom line: a good highlighter is now a necessity for me and if you haven't tried using one yet GO!   

Life Altering Product #3
I've been wearing NARS Super Orgasm blush for awhile now and as a lip sauce junkie I don't know how I'd never heard about the Super Orgasm gloss.  It is seriously the most gorgeous sheer pink color, it has sparkle without being too in-your-face.  It has a really smooth texture and that's really important to me, I hate feeling like I have heavy makeup on my mouth.  Basically if you like the blush you should definitely give the gloss a try. It's my new fav.
Super Orgasm blush

And those, my dearies are my favorite things this Friday.  I hope you have a fabulous evening.  I just found out that it is National Wine Day so I'm off to celebrate!! *Cheers*

Hey Britt,
Alex Jacobson from Inspiration Clothesline here!

Been following you for a long time and love reading about you and Josh and family.

Just discovered how to make and add blog buttons so I added your's to my blog. Hope that is okay.

I'm amazed at how many blogs I follow that have your button on them. :) Getting networked in big time. Nice work!

I was very impressed with the SKII Facial Treatment Essence (www.geocities.jp/hongkong_skii/index_e.htm), enough so that I have continued to use the product daily as part of my skin care routine after the test period. It's a luxury purchase to be sure, but this is one of the best products that can really make a significant difference in your skin, and so worth every penny.

I applied the treatment each morning and evening after cleansing my skin and before moisturizer/primer and then makeup. Within just a few days I could see that my skin was much more supple and smooth - particularly in the t-zone. After about two weeks, I loved the beautiful glow my skin had - even without makeup.
