Hello, Fireflies!

I remember the days when the only tool I knew about for putting on my makeup was the little sponge applicator that came with my shadows.  In fact, when the sponge fell apart, I would toss the shadow, because, well, how else were you supposed to put it on?  Foundation was only applied with fingers - starting a long dislike for foundation that has only recently changed.  I didn't know anything about brushes until a few years ago. Now, I can't get enough of them.  I've tried brushes from under a dollar, to some pretty expensive ones, and price isn't always an indicator of quality.  I recently tried this set from Beauty Widgets that is very reasonable, and that I really love!

Hello, Fireflies!

It's Gadget Time here on the blog.  As the daughter of the Gadget Queen, I do love a good tool.  And, as one with curly hair, I love a good straightener.  This one is unlike any I've used before, because it's a brush!

I See Myself More Clearly Now.. #Mirrorvana

Hello, Fireflies!

I have bad vision, and it seems like I always have.  I started wearing glasses in the 3rd grade, and still do.  When I was younger, a quick check in the mirror was fine, but now that I'm older, I need more time to get ready, and the ability to really see the details.  There's tweezing and plucking to be done, and older eyes take more attention to detail to look good.  My best tool for these tasks?  A magnifying mirror!

Hello, Fireflies!

You know how they say, that no matter how hard we try, sometimes we just end up becoming our parents anyway?  Well, my mom is a Gadget Queen.  She loves them.  She has a gadget just for hulling strawberries; another for slicing avocados; a specially designed tupperware just for keeping frozen waffles...  My mom also has amazing skin.  She looks 20 years younger than she is.  With the Lift Bar Pro, I'm fulfilling both my mom's love of gadgets, and for younger-looking skin!

Hello, Fireflies!

I'm old, but I'm not "I've Fallen And I Can't Get Up" old.  I am, however, "Honey, can you get that for me?" old.  I can get more things on my own, now, though, with my new bestie, the Reach It Grab It.
