So what brand of lip stain are you using?

I picked up CoverGirl Outlast. If you use it, I recommend that you dot it on lightly and rub it in with your fingertip to avoid going too dark. After that, a clear gloss or chapstick is all you need for the rest of the day.

I was going to ask about lip stain, but Ariel was on it!

Dang it. I want some, but just got home from Target . . . so, next time.

XOXO

But don't you have to know exactly how long a square of toilet paper is? And are they all the same from brand to brand?

TB, the square of toilet paper becomes the base unit. When I rearrange furniture, I measure the walls and chairs and whatnot in toilet paper squares to see what will fit where. Granted, the toilet paper square is not a universally recognized measurement, but it still works around the house.
