Hendrick's, A Most Unusual Gin...



Hendrick's is a cucumber and rose infused gin.  While I'm not usually one to partake in gin, I did really enjoy this drink.  My favorite cocktail was to mix a Hendrick's & Tonic embellished with cucumber slices.  Cucumber just girlifies things in general right?  Who needs to be a gentleman to drink gin?

It's not a typical ladies' drink however and it certainly appealed to my husband more than, say, a strawberry daiquiri.  :)  In fact, he downright loved it too.  So my recommendation is mix a tipple, raise your glass and give Hendrick's a try!  We'll be doing the same this evening...

*Coupon given to me by Bzzagent to try Hendrick's.  Thanks Bzzagent and Hendrick's!

CoverGirl Blast Flipsticks



I received a kit from BzzAgent last month containing 3 CoverGirl Blast Flipsticks.  They are so fun!  They are double-ended so, 2 colors in one right?  Wrong!  The 2 shades mix and blend well together for endless combinations.  Go with more shimmery light color and just a bit of dark for a subtle mix.  Highlight your darker shade with a light swipe of shimmer.  I highly recommend picking 1 or 2 up and making a date with your mirror to play around.
