Blogs now are so repetitive, and missing the intelligent editorial voice. Perhaps now I am at zen in term of makeups, so don't really seek the how and what, but rather the why, missing from most blogs.TravelingBlushhttp://www.travelingblush.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-49306561100780713332017-07-30T10:21:58.618-04:002017-07-30T10:21:58.618-04:00Have you tried cc creams?

It's timely.
Just ...Thanks for the post, Gaia. It's timely.<br /><br />Just yesterday, I remarked to Michael about the vlogs, "Just how many brown eyeshadows can there be in one universe, and how many of them am I supposed to buy in one lifetime?"<br /><br />The trivial does not amuse in the face of...well, let's call it "the zeitgeist."<br /><br />Book: The Pigeon Tunnel by John le Carré. (See https://www.overdrive.com/media/2670624/the-pigeon-tunnel) Recommended reading to make sense of the times. Not for the faint of heart. Focus on Chapter 19 - "Blood and treasure" - if you dare.<br /><br />TV: Not much. We're working through Supergirl. It's good-hearted. That's a novelty these days.<br /><br />Food: We've begun culturing yogurt at home again. It's a delight and a comfort.<br /><br />Bane: See above.<br /><br />Yep. Things have changed. Played it through 3 or 4 times already today.<br /><br />Yours in hope and endurance,<br /><br />VickiVicki Stammerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00202301205309340869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-32385007237590621422017-07-27T15:08:28.805-04:002017-07-27T15:08:28.805-04:00Thanks for highlighting the EB Black Sea Precious ...Thanks for highlighting the EB Black Sea Precious Pearl Protector. As the grumpy possessor of very dry skin, I'm excited to learn about this! <br /><br />I'm also very happy to hear that you're looking to make your blog work better for you in terms of what you want to share with the world. Your voice is unique and such a pleasure to read: whatever you care to chat about is quite welcome. (Plus, as a reader, I can testify that hearing about the millionth lip gloss gets almost as old as writing about it probably does! Not that you do that kind of exhaustive reviewing--but some do, and it's not that interesting after a while.) I look forward to reading whatever you share next...and am quite grateful that you're planning to write more. :)SoSuSamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09890365691156994507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-57519944446613666942017-07-26T13:12:13.128-04:002017-07-26T13:12:13.128-04:00I love the first paragraph of this post. It's ...I love the first paragraph of this post. It's so easy to get caught up in the posts of what's new and you need this and that and then all of a sudden you're swimming in a sea of stuff you rarely ever touch. I've stopped reading so many bloggers because I just got tired of being inundated with stuff and temptation. Trying to go through my stashes and reducing them to what I really need and love. <br />Books- My daughter loaned me the Crazy Rich Asians trilogy. I just couldn't get into it. Then I realized I'm just having a hard time reading anything these days. I'm feeling anxious over the state of the world and that's not helping at all.<br />Makeup - Still searching for a foundation that looks like skin and not makeup. Chanel Sublimage is close, but a tad too glittery/glowy. And I hate the scent in it and that it's in a pot and that it costs an arm and a leg.<br />Perfume - Tried Dryad. Loved it until it got to the deep dry down and then something about made me want to scrub it off. <br />TV- GoT, Orphan Black, Parts Unknown. Some imports. From the UK, Line of Duty. From France, Witnesses. <br />Bane - Summer weather. Can't wait until fall and winter so I can snuggle in sweaters and wool and under down comforters.Tatianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18326645296809102872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-33851411292195293032017-07-26T09:59:55.076-04:002017-07-26T09:59:55.076-04:00I have missed reading your blog and glad you are b...I have missed reading your blog and glad you are back!
