Pop Trash Beauty is Getting Some Work Done
I'm starting from the first post cleaning nip and tucking this place until its bright and shiny. Quoting a line from a Duran Duran song Lady Xanax the cracks in our makeup are starting to show. Random Life Posts will have a new home over at my other blog The Pink Compostion Book. PTB will be more streamlined for you to access. The 12 posts of lipstick will go on into the New Year. So off to work I go. See you in the New Year my dahlings ..

12 Posts of Lipstick : Lip Art ( Graffiti Lip )
Ive been practicing my lip art . I was thinking of Pablo Picasso when I first started this lip. Then I got some inspiration from street art makeup trying to make my lips look spray painted. This was allot of fun . Its been a long time since I just let my imagination go wild. Now I cant wait to do more . Still novice but feeling more confident.

Ode to Velvet Orchid 405 Lipstick ( Re Post )
Ode to Velvet Orchid 405 Lipstick ( Re Post )
This is a love story of a girl who meets the right lipstick. You notice it across a crowed makeup counter. The name of this lipstick was Velvet Orchid . Though it pains me to admit it I only tried Velvet Orchid for the name. I thought it was a merging of Andy Warhol and Nick Rhodes two iconic men of inspiration ( did I just write that oh well its done) . My love affair with Velvet Orchid was to be sweet and brief for the Queen Estee Lauder banished it too the land of discontinued. Now to see my sweet love I must go to eBay to find the surviving tubes who evaded the exile. I think of a quote from another man of inspiration William Shakespeare. In the play Romeo and Juliet the pinnacle story of unrequited love when Juliet says "What's in a name? That which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet." .So there you have it my favorite lipstick Velvet Orchid by Estee Lauder. Parting is indeed such sweet sorrow. I've posted some snaps of my happy times with Velvet Orchid. I got one tube in the freezer for a special occasion.
