Me: Do I set my alarm early to make sure I’m early for the meeting I’m running tomorrow or go with they can’t start without me and they can’t be mad about it because I’m bringing two enormous sheet cakes?@NotSoDorky: Why are we pretending you won’t set your alarm early?

Lipstick review: Pretty Vulgar Bury Them with a Smile Matte Lipstick in Mood Swing ▪️ I cannot get over the presentation for this lipstick. It’s one of the prettiest ones I own. ▪️ As you can see, the color is a really nice hot pink—my second favorite hot pink in fact. The matte lipstick goes on smooth and wears well with minimal rubbing off from eating and other wear. ▪️ The lipstick does dry my lips out if I wear it multiple days in a row but not after just one day. ▪️ In this photo I’m also wearing e.l.f. bb cream concealer in Fair, Covergirl Peacock Flair mascara in black, and Covergirl Defining Moment All Day Eyeliner in Blackest Black. ▪️ Totally unrelated: how great is my eyebrow raising in this selfie? Years of practice have finally paid off. ▪️ #makeup #makeuplife #cosmetics #makeup #lowmaintenancemakeup #makeupreview #makeupreviews #cosmeticreview #cosmeticsreviews #lipstick #lipstickaddict #lipstick💄 #lipsticklover #eyeshadow #eyeshadows #mascara #crueltyfreemakeup #crueltyfree #crueltyfreemakeupproducts #crueltyfreecosmetics #covergirl #elfcosmetics #prettyvulgar #prettyvulgarcosmetics #prettyvulgarburythemwithasmile #elf #eyeliner #eyelineronpoint #blackestblack #selfie #portraitmode

How My Week Went:

As you can tell from my Tweet of the Week I had a committee meeting this week for which I baked Monster Cake as seen in Tweet Cute by Emma Lord–it was delicious and well received but I would do some things differently if I were to make a different batch. I also gave my committee punny (belated) Valentines and basically continue to be a joy to work with.
