Welcome to Free For Haul Friday!
- Haul: Illamasqua Raindrops — Illamasqua put our Editor’s Choice Awards’ stickers on their Nail Varnishes, so I had to get one as a keepsake
- Weekend plans: We are going to try gardening!
- When do you take your vacation(s)?: We are all over the map, but I would say that in July/August we seem to always have a 2-3 weekend somewhere!
Share your pet photos to the Temptalia Pets flickr group!

Went to Walgreens in search of new summer collections, no luck… Mellan got Lambchop instead!

What’s the best makeup to wear to a pool party? Share!
I would wear sunscreen, tinted moisturizer, waterproof eyeliner and mascara, and lipgloss – just enough to look good out of the pool but not so much that I couldn’t get splashed!

How do you decide what makeup to wear each day? What’s your method?
Once I’ve photographed and swatched products, I put them in clear containers to test. So, I go to those containers and pick out what I hope will work somewhat well together or will reach for items that are more time-sensitive and need to be reviewed right away.

What are your top three tips for shopping for beauty products online? Share yours!
1.) Make sure you’re familiar with the retailer’s return policy, in case something doesn’t work out, breaks, etc. 2.) Always look for coupons – you can usually find ones for free shipping, small samples, and the like. (Consider signing up for the retailer’s newsletter if you are a frequent shopper.) 3.) Search for reviews/swatches for a product you’re unsure about to get a better feel for how it might perform or look.
