{349} eyeshadows

i used eyeshadow and eyeliners to write on my eyelids but i'd never carved my name into my treasured sephora box of eyeshadows...until today. i sacrificed my sacred eyeshadows for this project.

{23} lipstick on the mirror

first, i actually had to see if i owned any lipstick. i don't do lipstick. it just does not work for me. but i liked the idea of writing with it on the mirror in the bathroom. of course, then i remembered that i must have lipstick because how else did i do the post called "39 kisses"?

today was a weird day. it was a good day except for the fact that i totally wiped out on the ice on the sidewalk outside of my house. b-rutal. plus, there were three neighbors on the sidewalk at that time and they all saw me go down. i just laughed and said i was fine but as soon as i got inside and shut the door i went "owwwwwwww". my tailbone is totally bruised. in fact, it made me so upset that i went and bought candy to make myself feel better! no! what about the post yesterday about fitness and motivation? well, this was a test. and i failed. i guess that's why i will get up tomorrow and start all over again and remind myself how strong i am and that i do have willpower. i lost 75 pounds for sh*t's sake. i can do this!

back to the task at hand (i jazzed up the picture by upping the contrast by 300% in PS):

{19} nail polish

nearly three weeks in! i thought writing my name on my fingernails would be tougher than it actually was. but, it wasn't. first i gave myself a nice little manicure and got rid of those awful cuticles that winter tends to produce.

hey, did you know that an anagram of "lauren" is "unreal"? i can't believe i've lived 30 years without knowing that. i think that i need to start incorporating that a lot more in my life because it is totally awesome.

{7} 39 kisses

gee, i sure hope no one was peering through the window as i made this one...it must've looked ridiculous. i kept on kissing the paper, reapplying lipstick and kissing it again. it's my homage to sephora (although i'm sure i'll have another homage to sephora again later on).  only 358 more to go.
