A solid 8+ hours every night is essential--up to 12 hours in winter! We are hard wired to rise and fall with the sun. They don't call it Beauty Rest for no reason. I say, sleep as much as don't affect your job or your marriage. ;)<br /><br />P.S. I love red lipstick. If anything wakes up a tired face for me, red is it!Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00481202549790966218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4130537499074859934.post-77429891889651216932011-05-17T02:52:37.050+12:002011-05-17T02:52:37.050+12:00I have a Bobbi Brown makeup book, several brushes,...I have a Bobbi Brown makeup book, several brushes, and eye colors.

And, you'll be more pleasant to be around and more productive during your waking hours if you do get your required sleep. And, it's always those weeks where I don't get enough sleep that I wake up with a cold or a giant pimple on my face.Anihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08004627332516064834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4130537499074859934.post-37421531258903495122011-05-15T14:43:10.305+12:002011-05-15T14:43:10.305+12:00I use Bobbi Brown mineral foundation and rouge for...I use Bobbi Brown mineral foundation and rouge for that almost there dewy skin look.<br />So sorry re. your sweet cat. xxBarbara von Engerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10349156453440077071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4130537499074859934.post-91708404075211246212011-05-15T10:49:01.054+12:002011-05-15T10:49:01.054+12:00Hello

I enjoy BB makeup, but I don't have much TM. I am also a devoted Edward Bess fan and own a great deal of his makeup, most of it, in fact. 2) I wanted to extend my sympathies to your dearly departed cat. When Chloe died, she was 18, and I felt an emptiness as if she'd moved out and gone to college. That little mind trick helped me temper the grief. <br /><br />Oh, and since I am finally posting a comment, I should let you know that I had nominated your blog for the Liebster Blog Award several weeks ago.

It has been almost minimized out of the house 2x but rescued at the last moment. She does an amazing job at making any woman look and feel beautiful. xxBlissAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4130537499074859934.post-8965891256203166412011-05-14T21:40:40.118+12:002011-05-14T21:40:40.118+12:00Great post!

I think most women tend to look the best when they enhance what they were born with rather than trying to reconstruct their faces with products and ending up looking more like a clown. I have never seen Trish McEvoy products anywhere, but I do like Bobbi Brown. I also think that Chanel is another very classic brand, I enjoy their lipsticks and eyeshadows quite a bit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
