Small, yummy items i recently acquired. And I love them all!
from sephora:
urban decay cocoa body powder - so addicting, smells like chocolate, looks good as a face and body glitter. i love it!
duwop lip venom - it really works. i was skeptical at first but i had to try it. it plumps up your lips for 2 hours max. you can wear it by itself but i find it looks better with a neutral lipstick under it.
ramy cake eyeliner (you need an eyeliner brush from mac) - the best consistency! no need to add water, subtle effect compare to a pencil liner.
drugstore:
loreal 2 in 1 mascara - cheapest and the best! it really lengthens your lashes
perfect skincare (i have oily skin)
pevonia oily skin care line - pricey but it lasts forever. good gift for those who are skincare obsessed. this stopped me from experimenting. this is a keeper.
what else... oh if you like shoes, dsw store has some nice clearance shoes. there is a 30% off on top of discounted items. I got a pair of sexy yet pratical shoes for $30. there's one on powell st. in SF. check out dsw.com for more locations. prada and miu-miu shoes are on sale for $99.
don't go to aldo shoes. shoes are cheaply made and the salespeople are rude!
enjoy!

Re: Recommended christmas gifts for friends or yourself
Thu, December 18, 2003 - 3:31 PMHey! I got the Urban Decay Cocoa for my birthday and I have tried that Lip Venom, from our fellow tribemate, Lauren. It was one strange lip experience! SO tingly!
I have always wanted to try that cake eyeliner...
Thanks for sharing Stephanie! I need to get to DSW...and I can't stand Aldo either. What do you think about Steve Madden shoes? I think they are cute but SO not comfortable! Anyhow...thanks!

Re: Recommended christmas gifts for friends or yourself
Fri, December 19, 2003 - 5:01 PMHi Mori,
I was jsut at Steve Madden and I fell in love with the 80s kitten heels shoes. I want to get one of those fuschia ones. But I'll wait til after christmas when they go on sale.
I will definitely get the furry boots though. They're just slippers but so cool and cozy to walk around the house.
The cake eyeliner is a little powdery but it lines pretty smooth. I am amazed that it lasts all day. $12 is pretty reasonable for it.
