Shopping!

Like what I said in my previous post, I went out with my best friend/sister M last Thursday. We attended the LYB Members Only Party at Greenbelt. As promised, here’s a photo of what I got for myself.

This is the Cranberry limited edition set.

It includes a soap, a shower gel, a body butter and a lip balm. It smells wonderful. When I opened the box to take a photo, the smell hit me and it felt like Christmas.

I got M a foundation but I was not able to take a photo of that.

Earlier in the day, I was with my mom at the mall. When we were at the ladies’ room, I noticed that my shoe broke so I went to my favorite shoe store to buy a replacement. Well, you know me. I got 3.

The one that broke was a pair of flat sandals so I had to replace it with flats. I wore the black one immediately. I’m not used to wearing thong sandals but they turned out to be comfortable the longer I wore them. The one on the right is so comfy. It feels like butter. The one on the left is a size larger but it looks okay on my feet so I got it as well. These were on sale so I didn’t complain.

I got this jelly purse as a GWP:

After the TBS event, we went to Rustan’s as M wanted her makeup done so I told her that I will take her to Bobbi Brown to see my favorite MUA, Owell.

I had my eyebrows fixed and got this corrector. Earlier in the day I noticed that my corrector will only last me a few applications so I replenished my stock.

Here’s M after her makeup session:

Isn’t she gorgeous? As always, Owell did a good job. We both love that lipstick on her and we are planning to buy one for each of us the next time we go out.

After all the shopping and makeovers, we had a hearty merienda at Cibo. Going out with the special people in my life is truly an awesome experience no matter how simple our activities are.

Soul Notes: For Your Journal Tonight

Come sit with me for a while. I have my journal open, and tonight I’ve been thinking about something I suspect I do more often than I realize. I turn healing into another thing I need to accomplish. I want to know when I’ll be over something. When I’ll stop thinking about it. When something that hurt will finally stop hurting. When I’ll feel like myself again. And somewhere along the way, healing quietly becomes another deadline. Another invisible date on a calendar. Another thing I can somehow be late for. But maybe healing doesn’t work particularly well under project management. Maybe there are things I will understand quickly and things I’ll have to revisit again and again. Maybe I’ll feel completely fine one day and unexpectedly tender the next. That doesn’t mean I’ve gone backwards. It means I’m still moving through it. I remember one day, many years ago, when I had fibromyalgia. I lived in constant pain. I just couldn’t get a good day. And then one day, in the office...

Used to the Last Drop: The Ones I’d Already Told You About

  There’s something particularly satisfying about finishing a product you’ve already written about. Not testing it. Not forming first impressions. Not wondering whether I’ll still like it three weeks from now. Finished. My Molang Honey sheet masks and this body scrub both made it all the way to the end. (Finally for the Molang sheet masks, right?) I’ve reviewed both before, so I won’t review them all over again here. But perhaps using something until there is nothing left to use is its own kind of review. Beauty products come through my bathroom rather frequently. Some are lovely for a week. Some get pushed to the back of a shelf. Some simply stop working for me. And then there are the ones that quietly disappear because I kept reaching for them. Maybe an empty container is the shortest review of all. I liked it enough to finish it. If you want to read my thought about these products, just type them on my search bar. —- With elegance and quiet fire, Lady E Founder, Glow by Lady E...

Part 1: I Finally Had Enough of My Dry Feet and Did Something About It

  I have been annoyed with my feet for months. Not because there was anything particularly wrong with them. They were just dry . Really dry. And you know I have a problem with dryness (hello skin, lips). And somehow, despite noticing this constantly, I kept doing absolutely nothing about it. The moment that gets me every time is when I’m waiting for my son at piano class. I’ll sit down, cross my legs, look down at my slip-ons or sandals and there they are. My dry, flaky feet. Then I become painfully aware that there are other people sitting beside me who can probably see them too. 😂 Every time, I think, I really need to do something about this. And then piano class ends, life resumes, and apparently my feet are no longer part of my jurisdiction. Eventually, I had enough. I found this Mond’Sub Chamomile Foot Peeling Spray at KKV and decided that my poor neglected feet were finally getting some attention. The process wasn’t glamorous. There was peeling skin involved. There were bits...
