Monster High Scary Cute Beauty Set: Monstrously Gorgeous

Pinky McLadybits & Guest Contributor Pinky Jr.

Pinky Jr. and I were in the store when it happened. "Momma, look at this werewolf girl! I WANT HER FOR MY VERY OWN!" I had seen the Monster High Dolls in the stores while browsing, but I didn't know much about them. Apparently there are some books? I don't know.

What I do know is that these were one of the hot toys around here. Had I known that I would have stockpiled one of each when the damn things were on sale for a comparatively paltry $8 each. Hindsight, 20/20, etc.

As it stands, Pinky Jr. got the werewolf girl (Clawdeen), a zombie girl (Ghoulia Yelps), and Frankenstein's monster girl (Frankie Stein). She also got this adorable makeup set with looks from some of the Monster High Dolls. No, Amazon prices were not paid.

Who Doesn't Like Tinted Lip Balm?: Badger Lip Tint & Shimmer

Author: Tamatha

You may remember that I have a slight lip balm addiction. In addition to meaning that I must be no more than two feet away from a lip balm at all times, this addiction also means that lipsticks and I have a problem. They just disappear. Or, if I'm really lucky, I end up looking like I'm wearing only lip liner (and too much of it too boot). Note: no lip liner has actually been applied to my lips, but the lipstick has seemingly migrated to just the edges of my lips--lovely! At the same time, I'm often drawn to lipsticks (they're less of a "commitment" than other forms of make-up) and I own far more than any woman who rarely wears the stuff probably should. What can I say? Hope (or perhaps delusion) springs eternal.
