Hi, I’m Finn and I’ll be posting here from time to time while Britt’s off conquering the world. Or shopping. Why? Because I’m a giver, a goddess, a saint. Plus, I love to shop probably as much as Britt does.
I hate makeup removers. I’m not kidding. I’ve never used them, mostly because I can’t stand [...]

A Way To Touch Up Mineral Makeup Without The Mess
by Miss Britt on November 9, 2009 5 Comments »
My friend Megan introduced me to Bare Escentuals bareMinerals makeup a few months ago, and I have been in love ever since – with only one complaint.
I use the Bare Escentuals bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation and the Bare Escentuals Mineral Veil to set the powder. My only problem to date has been that there wasn’t [...]
Nail Polish That Doesn’t Chip? Oh, yeah.
by Miss Britt on October 28, 2009 6 Comments »
It’s been years since I painted my fingernails with anything but a clear coat.
My toenails? Pretty those babies up with reds and pinks and purples!
But my fingers? No way.
There is nothing tackier than chipped fingernail polish, and even a manicure from the Ritz Carlton spa cannot make colored nail polish stay on my fingers. The [...]
Do drugstore eye primers work?
by Miss Britt on October 16, 2009 7 Comments »
I have been trying to find ways to cut back on my beauty budget.
That means giving myself pedicures and at-home facials. It means going a little longer between hair cuts and letting my girlfriends wax my eyebrows for me. And it also means buying drugstore brands whenever possible.
Several weeks ago, I ran out of the [...]
LashBlast Saves Me From Great Lash Hell

Great Lash mascara can kiss my ass.
A few months ago, I wrote about how much I hate my mascara. I’d been using Maybeline’s infamous Great Lash mascara for about 15 years, but I hated the way it smudged all over my face.
I decided it was time to find a better mascara.
What I was looking for:
“What [...]
Cleansers for oily AND dry skin?
by Miss Britt on October 7, 2009 8 Comments »
I love it when people ask me questions.
It makes me feel smart and better than you. I mean, helpful. It makes me feel helpful.
My point is – someone asked me a question.
Elizabeth asked:
“do you know of any good facial cleansers that control oily and dry spots? As in, both at the same time? My forehead [...]
Awesome Lip Gloss You Can Buy At Target
by Miss Britt on September 23, 2009 7 Comments »
I went to BlogHer and came home with a bunch of free stuff I’d never heard of before.
Like the best shaving cream in the entire world.
And more lip gloss than I’ll ever use in my entire life. Seriously. Apparently there was a marketing pow wow somewhere and everyone decided the best way to reach women [...]
EOS: I Have Fallen In Love With Shaving Cream. Seriously.
by Miss Britt on August 11, 2009 32 Comments »
I would have never heard of it if it hadn’t been given to me for free.
I found it in an organic tote bag that someone had handed me at the BlogHer 09 conference. I didn’t even know what it was when I saw it.
“Maybe it’s some kind of lotion,” I thought – because I don’t [...]
Monistat Chafing Relief Powder Gel – Because no one is too fat for a dress
by Miss Britt on July 1, 2009 18 Comments »
I wear dresses because I feel too fat for shorts.
There. I said it.
It’s not my keen fashion sense or my desire to dress up every single day. It’s my overly ripe, pear shaped hips. And ass. And thighs.
I live in Florida and there is no freaking way I can endure 100+ temperatures in jeans. No [...]
Bare Escentuals Buxom Lips – my most expensive lip gloss
by Miss Britt on June 29, 2009 9 Comments »
I can’t believe I paid $18 this weekend to replace a tube of lip gloss that I lost.
But really – it’s that good.
So good, in fact, that I willingly endured another trip to my local ULTA so that I could plop down $18. For lip gloss.
Bare Escentuals Buxom Lips is currently tied with Burt’s Bees [...]
