A Friend In Need

DISCLAIMER: This is a rather girly post dealing with makeup and a salon. If this stuff scares you, read on at your own risk! ;)

Today I got a chance to go out and enjoy the beginning of what is going to be a spectacular weekend. We went to the local ice cream joint that just opened for the season. Definitely excited for warmer weather!

We also went to Ulta today so my sister could get her eyebrows waxed (ouch!). While I was there, I saw my friend who works there. She's such a sweetheart. Instead of scheduling a proper appointment and charging us $50 a person to get our makeup done, she does it for free for prom and the Halloween masquerade ball we attend. She's a dear. And today she proved it again.

I bought this StudioGear foundation the other day, and it's almost perfect. It's got nice, even coverage that helps even my skin out without giving me that flat look of a made-up face. I love it. The only problem is that I have very oily skin. This foundation does NOT help at all. In fact, it makes my skin more oily.

So, I was talking to her about it, and I mentioned the issue I was having. Immediately, she said, "Oh, just exchange it." I told her I couldn't, because I'd already opened it. She grinned at me and said, "Listen, I'll be in tomorrow. If you text me before you come by, I'll work it out so you can exchange it." She even put one of the proper ones aside for me, because it's their most popular kind.

She's so awesome. :) It's great to have a friend like that. So, yay! I'm getting my proper foundation tomorrow.
