Last weekend I jetted off for my annual IU girls weekend. 19 years have come and gone, and we are still going strong!  We had the best time, talking, laughing, eating and shopping! And what girls weekend would be complete without a makeover? I was at Nordstroms and a sweet girl who works with Smashbox Cosmetics, wooed me over to her chair to give me the full glamorized treatment.  What do you think?

I was way impressed by her master skills to erase my dark circles, find eyelashes I never knew existed, and to convince me to try Teal liquid eyeliner! I would have loved to purchase everything, but I’m a budget girl, so I walked out of there with two great items:

Love! Love! {Photo Op Under Eye Brightner}

I was crazy about this color that I would never have tried::{Lip Gloss in Radiant}

I did not pick up the Teal eyeliner, but it did open my eyes to playing a bit more with color as I get older.  I am putting many of the items she used on my wish list including their Photo Finish Anti-Aging Primer and some of their very cool brushes.

So, have you ever had a makeover? Did you like the end result or feel obligated to buy it all?  I highly recommend doing this at least once!  My favorite time to do it is when you are going to be shopping all day.  That way, every time you walk by a mirror you catch your reflection and wonder, “Who is that person?” Instead of, “Oh my word, this lighting makes me look so bad!”

Have a great Wednesday, and thanks so much for stopping by!  I’m linking up with Lindsey for What I Wore Wednesday over at The Pleated Poppy!
