So Google recently announced that they are shutting down Google Reader on July 1st, as they try to streamline things over at Google HQ.   I actually started using another RSS reader, Bloglovin’ a while ago to catch up on the latest post by my favourite blogs.  Gone are the days of having to visit each blog invidually.  I like the idea of logging into one website and getting caught up with the latest beauty lemmings or more pics/thoughts from my ultimate TV show Scandal!  You can find many blogs listed on Bloglovin’ and the user interface is simple and easy to read.  I also like the idea that I can make comments on a blog post directly without having to be forwarded to the actual blog and they have apps for iPhone/iPad and will probably come out with an app for Android soon enough.

  • So……sign up here for Bloglovin’…
  • Then follow me here…….you do want to see my latest musings!
  • If you already have a Bloglovin’ account you can transfer your Google Reader RSS feeds (and other readers) by clicking here.

That’s it!  And while you are at it, check me out on other social media sites!

So, see you soon!

Quick swatches: OCC’s new Stained Gloss

[twitter-follow screen_name=’NoireTropicalB’]

NB: Nothing to declare.

This season, glossy, brightly pigmented lips are the go-to look!  Everyone wants staying power.  OCC has added a new product to their lip colour line called Stained Gloss.   It’s described as a gloss with the pigment potency of a Lip Tar with a casual glossy finish (from the Sephora site).  These have a pigmented translucent, lacquered quality to them.

OCC Stained Gloss!

Here are the swatches (from left to right).

Voyeur, Meta, Jealous, Androgyne, Rhythm Box, New Wave

Definitely check them out, especially if you find the original Lip Tars are a little ‘much’ for you.  They retail for US$18 and are available now from OCC’s website, their flagship and from Sephora.

Let me know what you think!

Laters!
