I just turned 30. 2.) I moved from Orlando to Chicago two months ago. 3.) It KILLS me that I haven't written a real, non-blog sale related post in over a year.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I am making it a personal goal to get back into a regular posting schedule. I've been posting regularly on my Youtube channel (which you can get to by clicking on any of the video links in the left sidebar, or by clicking <a href="http://youtube.com/jemorjerrica">here</a>) and posting swatches and other photos regularly on Instagram (<a href="http://instagram.com/dontcallmejesse">dontcallmejesse</a>). However, I've always loved writing (I have a Bachelor's degree in English, another fact about me!), and neither of those social media outlets allow me to express myself in the way I've always been most comfortable. And some things just can't be said in a video or an Instagram post as well as it can in a blog post. So hold me accountable, friends - I need to get back to business where I first got my start. :)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Anyways, I just wanted to say hello again. I've just uploaded a Fall Haul video, so I'll link that below to make this post less bare-bones. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Any ideas for upcoming blog posts are welcome! Welcome back, self. ;) (Oh yes, I'm still the same cheeseball I always was.)</div>

Hello friends! If you haven't yet heard, I'm going to be moving from Orlando to Chicago later this summer. The prospect of moving has really motivated me to purge the excess "stuff" I own (I've already taken 3 or 4 bags of items to Goodwill!), which includes makeup. I just seem to accumulate too much makeup to really appreciate certain items. Some of the items I've listed this time I really do adore, I just don't get around to using them like perhaps one of you could.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Anyways, below is a sampling of the items I've added to my blog sale post, which you can access by clicking the text below. Happy shopping! :)</div>

Hello, friends and fellow lipstick lovers! Today I'll be talking about a new product that I'm seriously loving - Dior's Rouge Dior Nude Lip Blush lipsticks. Dior has been blowing it out of the park in the past couple of years. They're quietly overstepping YSL as my favorite high-end cosmetics brand. What's always pushed YSL over the edge for me has been their lipsticks. However, I have to say they've been slacking in that department for me lately. In fact, I haven't bought a single new YSL item in months. I think they really need to step up their game to keep up with Dior and Chanel's consistently impressive collections. Sorry, going off topic! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Anyways, I've been tauting the Dior Addict Extreme #336 St. Tropez lipstick as one of my all-time favorites all summer, and with this new range of "nude" lipsticks (I put it in quotes because which shades fall into that category will entirely depend on the individual), I think I've stumbled upon another HG lipstick from Dior. Color me impressed!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I believe there are 8 shades in the range (although some retailers are listing 6, like Sephora). Three of them stood out for me:</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Trompe L'Oeil </span></b>is a pale peach nude that looks a bit pink when applied to my lips. All three shades are glossy and sheer, but buildable. Trompe L'Oeil, however, required more layering to get an even, more opaque coverage. For those who like shades like GOSH Darling, Revlon Creamsicle, and MAC Creme d'Nude, I think you'll love this shade. It's not my favorite of the three, but I don't regret purchasing it, and I do like it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Indiscrete</b></span> is my favorite favorite favorite! I love this shade so much that I'm a bit panicked about whether these are limited edition shades. I WILL use the whole tube. The shade reminds me of YSL Rouge Pur Couture #06 Rose Bergmasque, one of my all-time favorite lipsticks EVER. It's glossy and reasonably moisturizing, and leaves minimal "damage" behind after several hours of wear (i.e. dried bits in the center of the lip - my PET PEEVE!). Here are a couple of photos of me wearing it to work the other day (no balm under or gloss over):</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Pretty much the definition of a "my lips but better" shade!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Swan</span></b> is the shade that I didn't expect to love, but do. When I first saw swatches on Fruity Lashes, I completely overlooked this one. However, when I saw them at my Macy's counter and swatched it on the back of my hand, I loved it! Sometimes it's wise to just swatch things for yourself instead of judging from someone else's swatches, especially when it comes to lip products. I think this a great everyday pink that would look good on a multitude of skintones. Like Indiscrete, Swan is a very easy-to-wear, goes-with-anything shade.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The Rouge Dior Nude Lip Blushes do have that signature slightly rose, slightly powdery scent/taste. I remember it being stronger in the regular Rouge Dior line, but I could be mistaken (I don't currently own any shades from the regular Rouge Dior line). If you're sensitive to scented lip products, you may want to test it out at the counter first.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
These are definitely Jess-approved, and highly recommended! Dior is on a roll, and I'm pretty freaking happy about it. :)</div>

There are lots of excuses (it's been a rough summer, I was traveling, etc.) but to be honest, I just haven't been motivated lately. I've been posting on Instagram TONS (I'm @dontcallmejesse there, if you'd like to follow me there! I also share all my Instagram photos to Twitter, where I'm @dontcallmejesse as well), but I've been slacking in all other areas!<br />
<br />
I was really getting into making YouTube videos... and then my camera lens broke (it wouldn't retract). I've filmed two videos with my phone camera since then, and I've filmed two others I have yet to upload (blargh!) but I just can't afford to buy a new camera right now, but next month is my birthday month, so fingers crossed, friends! >_<<br />
<br />
I have some beauty-related posts I plan on putting up in the next week or two, but first I thought I'd give you two "life updates."<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>1.) </b></span><b><span style="font-size: large;">Lola is now Charlie. </span></b>Yep, he's a boy. He also was not a stray! He actually had an owner in the next building. Long story short, though, he's still my cat and his previous owner and I have become friends (and she comes to visit him often). He's been an indoor cat since I took him in, and sometimes it's been a struggle - he and Mouse don't always get along, and when I let the kitties on the patio, I have to "supervise" to make sure Charlie doesn't try to escape through the screen!), but he's getting more and more used to his new home and family, and I love him very much!<br />

<b><span style="font-size: large;">3.)</span> <span style="font-size: large;">I said goodbye to my childhood home</span>. </b> Well, technically my home from 4th grade on, but still. My parents are selling their house and moving to a condo in Chicago. Pushed by the birth of their new granddaughter? Perhaps! I was lucky that I had an opportunity to visit Cincinnati for a few days in the middle of my Chicago trip (yay for Megabus!) and spend some time with my parents there. It was so bizarre seeing my old bedroom almost completely bare (nearly the whole house, in fact!). I've never been very good with big chances, but I'm pretty excited for them to get settled into their new place. It will be nice having everyone in the same city - except for me, of course. But maybe someday that will change...</div>

Her name is Lola, and she was a stray kitty that I'd been feeding for some time. She was always so unbelievably friendly with me, that <span style="background-color: white;">I'm certain she was abandoned. She'd let me carry her, pet her, and weave herself around my legs when she'd see me. When I learned she was declawed I couldn't bear the thought of her living outside and lacking her biggest defense mechanism. How could someone declaw a kitty and then abandon her? The cruelty astounds me.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;">Anyways, I was perfectly happy with my two little monsters, but I'm even happier now to have Lola, too. I feel like our little family is now complete. :)</span><br />

I was talking to Mom one night, and she said I seem to be recreating our pet family from my childhood. We had two male cats (Casper and Tiger) and one female (Stephanie, who was also a rescue!). I hadn't even thought of that, but I think maybe subconsciously I was! We also had a dog, but I don't think I can handle four pets on my own! haha Even a crazy cat lady has her pet-housing limits! ;)</div>

I'm surprised to see myself saying this, but I think Too Faced's fall 2012 collection is my favorite I've seen so far. It sure doesn't hurt that it includes a new 16-shade line of lipsticks, all with pretty adorable names I might add. They're called La Creme Color Drenched Lip Creams, but I'll just be calling them La Cremes, because ridiculously long product names irritate me. ;) Anyways, I love these, and had to share my thoughts - along with swatches, of course!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
All three shades are creamy and opaque, and have a sweet sugary lemon taste (bakery lemon, as opposed to medicinal/kitchen lemon) that fades a bit after application. Marshmallow Bunny has a quality to it that I find hard to describe. It's not shimmery, frosty, or even pearly, but it does have more of a "glow" to it than Nude Beach or Naked Dolly. I also think it doesn't look as smooth on the lips, though it feels smooth when applying. I can't help but think Marshmallow Bunny will be the runaway hit in this line - it's a pretty unique pink, neutral and bright at the same time, and not too cool-toned. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As I noted in the swatches, Naked Dolly is my favorite. It reminds of YSL Rouge Pur 148 Tea Rose, just a tad sheerer (nothing beats the opacity of YSL lipsticks, in my experience!). Nude Beach reminds me of a more nude MAC Patisserie. Like I said, Marshmallow Bunny is pretty unique, and no dupes spring to mind right away. Maybe the Revlon lip butter in Strawberry Shortcake - though I think this is much, much better!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
To sum it up in one sentence: I love pretty much everything about these. The packaging is sleek and slim, and the outer cardboard packaging is even lovelier (I haven't been able to get them into the trash bin as of yet...). I love the formula - it's creamy, glossy, and feels light on the lips. It's not perfect (tell me if you find a lipstick that is!), and my lips do begin to feel dry after a few hours, when the product begins to wear off. And these shades? SO ME. As previously mentioned, there are 16 shades in the line in total, and I'm so happy with the three I blind-ordered that I'm curious to try more. </div>

I ordered from TooFaced.com, which I'd never done before. I used a 10% off promo code, and shipping was free over $50. I was really pleased with the presentation when I received my package - pink box AND pink filler? Yes, please! Also love the three generous samples. The shade of gloss (Barely Legal) is a shade I'd actually gravitate towards (pink nude, of course) and the Lashgasm mascara (name cringe) is surprising fantastic. I have yet to try the Beauty Balm, though - new face products make me nervous!</div>

So sorry for my obscenely long absence from my blog. I basically lost motivation, but it's slowly coming back to me, so don't give up on me yet. :) And if for some odd reason you need to see or hear more from me, you can find me on <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/dontcallmejesse" target="_blank">Twitter</a>, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/jemorjerrica" target="_blank">YouTube</a>, or Instagram (dontcallmejesse - I post all my photos to Twitter as well) in the meantime! </div>

You don't know how much it pains me to find myself posting a blog sale again after too many weeks have gone by without any posts of any sort... and my last post was a blog sale post as well. What can I say, though, times they are a'tough. :\ However, I couldn't deal with seeing two blog sale posts back to back, so instead of creating a new one, I just amended the original post and moved all the older items to the bottom. Keeping it simple or something to that effect!<br />
<br />
Anyways, my sincerest apologies for my absence. I've been pre-occupied with YouTube (<a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/jemorjerrica" target="_blank">click here if you'd like to see my recent videos</a>) and Instagram (you can find me there as "dontcallmejesse" - I've been posting swatches and product photos there as well!). Basically the time I was spending blogging before has been spent filming videos instead. I promise I will try to find a way to balance both in the future. I can't just abandon my baby! >_< Thank you for sticking with me. :)<br />
<br />
Cutting to the point, here is the <a href="http://notjessie.blogspot.com/2012/04/blog-sale-dior-chanel-mac-nars-sleek.html" target="_blank">link to the <b><span style="font-size: large;">blog sale</span></b></a>. Happy shopping, lovely ladies and gents! :)<br />
<br />
Love you all lots and lots. <3<br />

IIHi all! Sorry I've been utter crap about updating my blog. I don't have a lot of time (when I'm not exhausted) during my week, and lately when I have had some time I've been posting on Instagram, Twitter, or trying to make videos for Youtube. I did also have a teeth-cleaning appointment on one of my days off last week, does that count as an excuse? ;) Anyways, to sum it up, sorry for my slacking. I know not everyone has Instagram, or follows me on Twitter, so I'm going to continue to do these "my life via instagram" posts on a somewhat-regular basis. Hope you enjoy! :)<br />
<br />
By the way, I'm going to be having another blog sale very soon! It should be up by Sunday, so keep your eyes peeled if you're interested. :) I'll also tweet about it before it goes live.<br />
<br />
On with the show! (heh, I wrote "shoe" first.)<br />

I've been having so much fun with Instagram since I finally was able to download the app a few weeks ago (yay for Android phone users!). I thought it'd be fun to share with you some of my favorite uploads so far. I love seeing the weekly update posts so many other fabulous ladies do featuring their Instagram photos - perhaps I'll start doing the same, too. Also, if anyone knows if there's maybe a secret folder in my phone containing larger versions of these files, please clue me in! These are as big as I could post them without them going grainy. Oh well, on with the show. </div>

Enjoy the pics!<br />

Oh, I should probably mention my Instagram username is "dontcallmejesse" - same as my name on Twitter. So you can find me there if you'd like to see more photos (especially Sammy & Mouse pics) as I post them. :)</div>

I'm uploading a face/outfit/chatty video to my <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/jemorjerrica" target="_blank">Youtube channel</a> as we speak, and I have a haul video in the works as well. When the haul video goes up, I should have a correlating post with swatches and whatnot to share as well. :) Yay for frivolous spending!</div>

Hello ladies (and gents?)! Yes, I'm doing yet another FOTD post. Aren't you excited? >_< Anyways, I like doing these types of posts because it gives me a chance to show you what products I'm using, and what products look like on my big ol' face.<br />
<br />
One thing I wanted to say is that I dug up my Lancome Hypnose Drama mascara today (it's still wet), and I remembered why I hadn't been using it much anymore. It used to be my HG mascara! I still do like it - it's not a bad mascara by any means. However, it seemed to take ages to build it up to the volume and length that I wanted. And it smudged under my eyes. I've really been loving the YSL Faux Cils Shocking, which suuuucks because it's so friggin' expensive, but there it is. The Maybelline Falsies Flared is also a good drugstore option. But I don't think I'll be repurchasing Hypnose Drama anytime soon. Goodbye, old friend. :(<br />

Chaos! (The table had scratches on it, too, from either the shelf or Sammy's fall - who knows which?) Sammy likes to sleep on top of that shelf, but I guess he's finally gotten too big to climb it! What's crazy is that I sleep so deeply that I didn't even hear it happen. (Oops?) And yeah, it took an HOUR to clean it all up and reorganize the baskets. Oh well, at least I was forced into sorting through old papers and bills and stuff - I threw so much away!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Of course, I wasn't mad at Sammy. I'm actually surprised it hadn't happened sooner! Besides, look at that face... </div>

<br />
Mondays tend to be my play-with-makeup day, and this past one was no different. I felt like using some products (eye products in particular) that I've been neglecting, as well as some products I'd just recently acquired.<br />
<br />
I feel like this kind of eye makeup is really great for those who, like me!, have hooded eyelids (lids that aren't very visible when eyes are open). I think us hooded-eye girls can get away with eye looks like this for work even. Just. Don't. Blink. (kidding...)<br />
<br />
Oh, and one more thing. I'm going to talk about it in my favorites video for sure, but can I take a second here to rave about my beloved Lancome Teint Idole Ultra 24H. I mean, this stuff is magic in a bottle. I've never gotten so many compliments on my skin, and I can credit this foundation and some great skincare products (La Roche-Posay!) for that.<br />
<br />
I've tried applying it many ways, but I feel like it blends best when applied with fingers. The shade range is great (I was actually a darker shade than I thought I'd be - this stuff does NOT oxidize!). I feel like it would let beautiful things like freckles show through, while evening out skintone and just making it look... better. It doesn't cake or separate (even my favorites tend to separate around my nose - this one doesn't). I also don't pick up a scent, which is great, because my skin does NOT like scented face products (not to mention, why does anyone want their face to smell like flowers??). So, to sum it up, love this stuff loooads. I'd definitely recommend picking up a sample if you get the opportunity!<br />

</div> **I was reminded why I stopped using this. It's a beautiful shade, but it's too liquid-y in consistency, and it's hard to build up the color. I prefer MAC's Dark Diversion fluidline, which is a similar deep burgundy shade, but far more opaque and buildable, if a bit more of a process to apply.<br />

I know this is the time of month when most people post their monthly favorites. Well, I think taking pictures of my favorites is, well, dull as dishwater. I plan on making a video, but - keeping it real - it's that other time of the month, too, and I'm feeling less than fabulous! Hopefully it'll be up by the weekend. I'll keep you posted!</div>

Just like I did last time I posted a haul, I'm going to post lip swatches in a separate post (and put a link to it in this one). I just feel like it makes for easier reading and cuts down the already massive number of photos! >_<</div>

<li style="text-align: left;"><b>L'Occitane Honey hand cream (Sephora)</b> - this has quickly become a staple. It's small size is perfect for me to carry around while I'm at work. I'm constantly washing my hands, so it's great to pop this out afterwards for some moisture! It smells like pure honey, too, which is a huge plus in my book. I LOVE honey!</li>

<li style="text-align: left;"><b>Lip Smackers lip balms (Target) </b>- Um, kind of went balm-crazy at Target. The Minnie & Daisy ones were a set. I love the 80's-ish packaging, and the scents are all sweet and foody (cupcake, cotton candy, and "sweetie pie" - which smells like berries, not my fave!). The Ice Cream Cake one is amaaaazing. My fave of the bunch. I've been keeping it in my makeup bag.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: left;"><b>L'Oreal Colour Riche nail polishes: Walk on the Beach, L'Orange, Spice It Up (all from Target), and Tangerine Crush</b> <b>(Walgreens) -</b> I pretty much ignored this nail polish launch initially. I had picked up Club Prive and liked it, but none of the other shades caught my eye. I'm so glad I gave them a second look, because they are seriously good stuff! My favorite is Walk on the Beach.</li>

<li style="text-align: left;"><b>Alba Botanica Hawaiian hair & body products</b> - I saw this display on an aisle endcap, and when I popped up the caps for a whiff, I about doubled over. These are seriously some of the most amazing scents I've ever experienced. I've used them all, too, and have nothing but the highest praises to give them. Added bonus, they lack the harsh, unnatural ingredients a lot of hair and shower products have (no parabens, harsh sulfates, etc.) and have loads of natural ingredients, like plant and fruit extracts. I plan on repurchasing the Mai Tai shower gel, for sure. It's like Hawaiian Punch for your loofah. (It's a good thing.) The Lava Flow smells EXACTLY like Lush's Lime Smoothie, which is one of my favorites, and also hard to get your hands on. Bonus! I'm so excited about these, I've gotta cut myself now and move on!</li>

<li><b>Flora by Gucci: Glamorous Magnolia</b> - Um, speaking of amazing scents. Just give this a whiff if you get a chance. It's light, citrus, floral, and delicious! It's not at all headache-inducing. I get compliments on fragrance sparingly, and since buying this last week, I've already gotten several! This is good stuff, people. <3 I fear it's limited edition, which makes me want to back it up (must resist...). </li>

<li style="text-align: left;"><b>Royal Apothic Extract of Neem rollerball (Anthropologie)</b> - I had $10 left on an Anthropologie gift card I received for Christmas (can you BELIEVE the willpower??), and I used it for this little guy. I have the Extract of Macaroon rollerball by Royal Apothic, and love it to death, so imagine my excitement when I saw they had released a new range. This one is very unusual, like sweet grass with a bit of fruit in there, too. I think it just screams warm weather. And they're only $16, which is a total steal (most rollerballs are around the $20 range).</li>

Hello, wonderful readers! I know, my lazy ass has been slacking with the blogging! I have been making Youtube videos somewhat consistently, though (more on that later), so I guess you can call me 50% lazy. ;) Anyways, I do have several posts up my sleeve, but I saw so many life-in-photos type posts today, that I was inspired to do one of my own. As you can see, I live an exciting life of shopping and cat-ladying. And sometimes I work and sleep. ;)</div>

Well, technically, it ended an hour ago, but I know the partiers have a few more hours to go (at least!). I spend the day at home and at work, but don't pity me, I'm a total granny and I wouldn't have gone out anyways! ;) Totally unrelated to St. Patrick's Day, I wanted to share a few purchases I made last weekend. It was rainy and gloomy and Daylight Savings meant an hour of my weekend lost, so what better way to cheer myself up than with some new unnecessary (but totally necessary, right?) beauty buys? ;)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">And I don't normally do this, but I've been wearing this color the last few nights I've worked, and check this out:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-N3FkXXOrRo0/T2VuLhzVBSI/AAAAAAAADa0/4mP04aQ2x24/s1600/2012-03-17+23.24.47.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="342" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-N3FkXXOrRo0/T2VuLhzVBSI/AAAAAAAADa0/4mP04aQ2x24/s400/2012-03-17+23.24.47.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><i>Dior Saint Tropez after six hours of wear (at work!)</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">That is about six hours after applying! Usually I reapply throughout the night, but I was so impressed that I felt like doing an "experiment" to see if it would dry out my lips. As you can see, there are NO FLAKY BITS!! Hallelujah! It is definitely much drier than the initial application at this point (duh), but I love that the color seems to just fade down evenly and doesn't gather at the center of my lips (as SO MANY shades do - "so many" meaning all but like five I own...).</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">So, to answer questions about whether these are drying, I have to say my final verdict is NO. They don't dry out my lips during wear, and my lips don't feel dry after removing either. (I know some lipsticks don't have noticeable drying effects until the next day, but that's not the case here!)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

The rest are mostly in the same order that they're shown in the post, aside from MAC Viva Glam Nicki Minaj, which I swatched last, as it leaves a stain on the lips! I also didn't swatch MAC Watch Me Simmer, because I already featured a swatch in <a href="http://notjessie.blogspot.com/2012/02/mac-call-me-bubbles-quad-two-ways.html">this post</a>.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I have been all over the place the past few weeks, just crazy busy with work and visitors (my beautiful aunts - Mom's sisters - were here for a week). I managed to squeeze in time to film a few more craptastic videos for Youtube (I ordered a Gorillapod, which will hopefully make filming LOADS easier!) but I just couldn't find time or energy to work on my poor neglected blog. I'm uploading my February Favorites video as I'm writing this post (going to take 3 hours to upload - thanks, HD!). Yay!<br />
<br />
Anyways, I just wanted to do a "random mish-mash of photos" type post, because I just have WAY too much to catch you guys up on! haha This is also a favorite blog post style for lazy girls who are sleepy (a.k.a. me). ;)<br />
