Favorite

While browsing recently at one of my favorite beauty stores, Ulta, I came across a cosmetics line I had not heard of before, Sula. There is not a large selection, but what they do offer is competitively priced at about $8 per item, and is paraben free and cruelty free (I think), oh, and the packaging is beautiful. The lipstick I tried was a long-lasting, non-drying deep plum.

Confession

I love toys. There, I said it. I know it's no surprise to a few folks who know me well. I don't know why I like toys so much. I was not deprived as a child, but for whatever reason a part of me has always enjoyed having toys around.
These are some of my current favorites, Lalaloopsy Dolls. Apparently they are just as popular among adults as children. They are made in miniature and larger sizes, and these are some my children were playing with today. No, I don't play with them except at the request of a child, but I rather like to collect them. If I had a dedicated office/craft room, I would love to have a display. I also like them for inspiration for dolls I would like to make myself. Hopefully one day I will post items I have made myself instead of mass produced items.
