A Few Other Things: Makeup/Skincare

Since what you're likely to see in the near future is me talking about writing and upcoming deadlines for NaNoWriMo, Yuletide and Critmas (and maybe others), I thought I'd do something a little different. I've been mentioning that I set up a space in my bedroom that's kind of a space all my own where I can get away for an hour or so and wind down for the evening, use my altar space, use it as a vanity for my makeup... whatever I need for that time each morning and each evening. It's been so nice. I haven't been able to use it every night, but since I've gone back to work I've been sitting here every morning to put on my makeup.

I don't think I post a picture of my space, but I'm pretty proud of it so I like to show it off. It's changed a little bit since I took this one, but not so much. So here it is after I added the black velvet skull on the right side of the shelf my altar is on.



But, since putting this place together for myself, I've also been able to get a better look at all my makeup and break out some samples I've been sitting on.

Anyway, I hope if makeup/skincare is your thing, this post was interesting to you. I'm happy to answer questions, talk about other products if anyone has suggestions.

Otherwise, I hope my fellow Star Wars fans are enjoying the new trailer tonight. Leia's "Always" is PERFECT. I can't wait for December. A friend and I have been meeting each year for a movie when she comes down my way for Christmas with her family. We already have the day off planned the Monday after the movie release to go see it. :)
