MAC's Warm & Cozy Line

 Given that it's about minus 50 with windchill on the East Coast, it's possible that we may never leave our home until it's time to catch our plane to a warm escape. In the meantime, since we don't want to scare off our new hubby, we're playing around with the new MAC Warm & Cozy line. 
We've heard it compared to the MAC Nudes (it does contain some of the glosses), but that's OK by us, since that was one of our fave MAC lines ever. Of the products we were sent to test, we're loving all the lip products, including the Close for Comfort Lip Conditioner. It keeps our lips moisturized with a sheer hit of color. 
 

It's hard to argue with a sheer gloss. We received 2N, a very wearable pale beige-ish pink.

We need to head on down to our nearest MAC store to buy the Shadestick shadows. They look like just the makeup we need to curl up by the fireplace in our favorite cashmere sweater.

We like the scent of the Sweet Orange and Lavender Care Blend Essential Oil, but can't quite bring ourselves to use something that looks like cuticle oil ourselves on our face.

This review was based on a free sample.

Americans Are Doing More, Spending Less

We couldn't agree more with this New York Times story, "Americans Doing More, Spending Less a Poll Finds." In fact, when we were given cash for Christmas (apparently, we're hard to buy for), we spent it on tickets to see Fela on Broadway (above) and bought a plane ticket to L.A.

How about you? Are you forgoing shoes and handbags for experiences?
