I know that I usually post the Lipstick League round-up on Sundays but, as most of you know, I got food poisoning on Sunday and today, Tuesday, I'm just now starting to feel like myself again. So apologies for the delay and thanks for your patience as I play catch-up this week!
We’d like to take a moment to congratulate our very own Phyrra for five years of beauty blogging! To commemorate the event, she’s hosting a mega-givewaway here that you don’t want to miss.
Lipstick League Question of the Week
Tell us about a funny makeup/beauty mistake you have made…or care to admit to?
G's answer: Oh boy, my most embarrassing beauty mistake is probably the two large caterpillars that were growing right above my eyeballs for most of the 80s and earlier 90s. I still cringe when I look at pics of myself from that era. Oh, and let's not forget the oh-so-popular Spiral Perm of the early 90s. I rocked my spiral perm and dark brown lipstick like no other, I tell you!
