Shear Love Boot Camp: ROUND TWO!

Hey Darlins! The lovely and very talented stylists over at Shear Love Hair Salon are hosting another BLOW DRY BOOT CAMP this Thursday, February 9th!

Blow Dry Boot Camp is a super awesome chance to mingle with local hip kids, drink some tasty wine and oh yeah, get a professional lesson on how to make your mane look salon ferosh every day! I went to the Boot Camp last year (check out my previous blog on the event HERE) and like, uhh to be perfectly honestly I didn’t think my hair could actually look any better but girl, I was wrong. My personal stylist Miss AMBER LAMPZ taught me lots of awesome styling tricks and I got to eat fancy cheese during it. It was like the date of my dreams. Sigh. So you’ll probably be seeing me again this Thursday at Shear Love and you should be there too!! Support local glitter yall!

And as always, you get 20% off your service at Shear Love Salon with the beautiful and talented Amber Lampzzz when you mention SORRY, DARLIN!! Because we know looking good makes you feel good girl!

Obsession: Smashbox Photo Finish Primer

Hey there party girls! As a full time girl about town and part time business barbie, I’m always looking for makeup products that LAST all day and well into the night. I never know when I’m going to go directly from my “day” job to some sort of evening event PLUS I really hate going home at 5pm, washing my face and starting the whole beautification process over again.  Its a total waste of products and washing your face too many times is actually really harsh on your complexition. I like to keep things simple, you know? Which is why I am totally absolutely over the top facebook stalker in love with Smashbox Photo Finish Primer!

Truth be told after reading so many amazing reviews over the years in magazine and blogs I’ve always wanted this product, but It was a bit out of my normal beauty price range (an ounce retails at $36.00- whoa). Thank god for christmas and moms, right? This stocking stuffer was the perfect gift! Simply apply a light coat to your face in the morning after you wash and moisturize, then do your makeup as normal. The Photo Finish Primer will honestly keep your makeup looking perfect for hours- no smudges, no product settling into your wrinkles or trouble areas (um, like we have those anyways, RIGHT), NOTHING. I have literally put this product on at 7am and my makeup looked perfect until I got home at 4am. It’s everything an on the go, working party girl could ever dream of. Pick yours up at any comestic retailer today!

ps- Is this product a little out of your price range? Spent all your money on hairspray and shoes like I normally do? Have no worries girlys! Drug store giant L’oreal makes an extremely similar product called “magic perfecting base” which is absolutely magical for almost half the price of Smashbox’s product. I own and also use it quite frequently, so theres no excuse why you cant look picture perfect 24/7!

People who sparkle with me: Daxclamation! Edition

Sometimes I just want to blog about things I randomly like and you know, since I run this website I CAN DO WHATEVER I WANT. That being said, this blog is a tribute to one of my favorite people and besty girlfriends ever, Miss Daxclamation.

Typical US.

Daxclamation and I met on the Masquerade dance floor years and years ago when DSC was the only party worth going to, I wore white cowboy boots all the time and we were all obsessed with Bloc Party. Ahhh, the good old Atlanta days. Anyways, he marched up to me in a glorious cloud of perfume, hairspray and ciggys and made some snide comment on why all the cute boys were dancing with me when they should be dancing with him. I liked him immediately and totally agreed. We’ve been fighting crime together ever since.

This is how gaybies are made.

THE TOP 6 REASONS I REALLY LIKE DAX (becase 5 was too little and 10 gave me a headache)

1. We text all day long. From the moment I wake up to the moment I fall asleep some sort of hilarious commentary on our adventures is happening via text message. Plus, we sort of have our own secret language thats composed mainly of the words “jampax, jampons, gayleg and bananaface” that can sum up any life situation. I seriously laugh all day due to this and I blame this sort of constant + considerable attention as the direct reason I havent needed a boyfriend in almost 5 years. Thanks a lot, asshole.

3. Sometimes we do impressions of our other glitter counterpart Michael Payne for hours and hours and it just never ever gets old (OMG sidenote Michael is so the next subject of my sparkle blogs). We are endlessly entertaining to each other. In fact, we do impressions of everyone we know and we’d do them for you but you might not get it or you might hate us. Probably the latter but its funny to us and that’s what REALLY counts.

3. Approximately one hour or two drinks in to a night out together we prance over to the bathrooms for a “Dax over”. A Dax over will leave your hair big, your lips full of glitter and a teeeeeny bit of your soul missing. He always screams “BARDOU HONEY. BARDOU” to me as he teases my hair and I loveeeee being yelled at. Plus I can text and eat snickers while he does my hair, and who doesn’t like that.

Hosting The Miss East Atlanta Pageant together. It takes a Queen to crown a Queen!

4. Somehow our outfit color schemes always match and we never plan it. I think this happens because our menstrual cycles have synced but I cant find any scientific evidence to support this. Oh well.

5. We have fat girl alter egos called “Stacey and Bethanny” who have their own alter ego voices and cry tears of ranch. Stacey and Bethanny love chinese food and bad romantic comedies. Stacey and Bethanny might be lesbians.

6. More than anything I like Dax because I know none of my um…crazy tendencies or late night hijinks will ever scare him off (I mean, what personal boundaries DIDNT we break last summer. TMI is so not a word in a our auto text, thank you very much) and that’s more than I can say for most men. In fact, I think our mutual weirdness is the cheese that holds us together and I want to get old and moldy together, you know? And then get lots of botox, marry rich politicians and have a show together on vh1. THE END.

annnnd this pretty much sums up our friendship.

I LOVE YOU DAX! XO Sarah Mincher

AND don’t forget to follow us on glitter as we continue to fight nightclub crime and bad hair everywhere —> (Click to follow, duh) —-> @Daxclamation + @SarahMincher

Happy Thanksgiving!

XO Sarah Mincher + the lovely ladies of Sorry, Darlin!
