Cubicle crusaders, overworked assistants and every other tardily-night office dweller logging in extra office hours every week, say it with me at present!

We're not gonna take it!

NO, we own't gonna take it!

We're not gonna take it…ANYMORE!

Nosotros're proverb "No!" to wimpy wear time and makeup that malfunctions while we're working overtime (which reminds me, anyone who says that working for a plus-size kitty supermodel is an easy gig obviously hasn't done information technology before).

"No!" to the naysayers who say that it'due south wrong to wear anything simply bone or dark-brown in the workplace.

"NO!" We demand delicious pops of pinkish, coral, plum and crimson to become with our office neutrals.

It's time for our blushes, eyeshadows and glosses to work as hard as we practice! Time for long-lasting makeup capable of keeping upwardly with our decorated schedules! Fourth dimension for makeup able to log in only equally much overtime as we exercise while still looking fashionable!

Yeah, the time has come for all of those tired, played-out pieces with weak wear time to stride aside, and make room for the new 25-piece MAC Role Hours drove.

Starting with that first sip of coffee in the morning, all the way until your after-hours snack (don't worry, I won't tell anyone nearly your secret chocolate stash), the MAC Office Hours Drove never goes home early. When it comes to article of clothing time, this express edition drove of MAC Pro Longwear products for lips, cheeks and eyes just apparently shreds!

The MAC Pro Longwear products are yet relatively new, merely I feel like I've loved them forever. I hateful, finding MAC Pro Longwear Concealer was almost a life-irresolute experience. Think Styledriven from last fall? — with the Pro Longwear products for lips and eyes? Office Hours feels similar an extension of that collection to me.

It's role makeup, MAC-style. Okay, sure, the overall look has "super-clothing" stamped all over it, but MAC included just plenty color to hint at the rebel that resides behind most button-down shirts, pinstriped suits and sensible shoes.

The colour palette includes shades of nude, pink, peach, beige, red and rose for lips; ivory, rose, brown, camel, reddish, mauve, greyness and blue for eyes; and coral, beige, pink, rose, dark-brown and plum for cheeks.

Here'south a quick look at six of the pieces…

A few showtime impressions of the products…

  • Pro Longwear Eyeshadows in Linger Softly and Blossom On: I love how soft these experience and the finely milled powders, but I was expecting Linger Softly, which MAC describes every bit a lightly frosted grey-blue, to have more pigment and a shimmery cease… I call up it looks more similar a sheer satin on my skin, and Nail On is too very sheer.
  • Pro Longwear Blushes in Eternal Sunday and Baby Don't Go: Like the eyeshadows, both products feel buttery soft to the impact and take very fine grains. I have to use a couple of layers for these particular colors to show up on my NC42 peel.
  • Pro Longwear Lipglasses in Boundlessly Biscuit and Next Fad: Both of these are very, VERY sticky and thick. I wouldn't call them amidst the most comfy products I've e'er worn, and my hair constantly gets caught in my lips… Certain do love the shine, though.

Hachiko: A Dog'due south Story

I couldn't find anything to watch on Idiot box last nighttime, so I browsed effectually on Netflix for a chip and came across a movie called Hachiko: A Dog's Story, starring Richard Gere and Joan Allen.

Dude! If I'd known what I was getting into…

The picture show'southward about a professor who adopts a stray Akita puppy named Hachi.

Okay, I thought it was gonna be a happy-go-lucky story about a man and his dog, only 15 minutes in I started getting the sense that I was in for a surprise.

I won't requite abroad too much in example you decide to sentry information technology, but by cease of the pic, both El Hub and I were bawling! And I've actually cried a few more times since and so but thinking about the movie.

HIGHLY recommended, especially for animal lovers. Only go along a box of tissues shut…

Your friendly neighborhood beauty aficionado,
