Molehills Not Mountains

I signed up to do this 21 day no sugar detox.  Worst decision of my life. JK, almost.  I don't even really eat a lot of sugar but you would be surprised how much sugar is in everything. Even alcohol (thug tear). I started off real good and then Friday rolls around and as soon as I walk into work I thought to myself, "What am I going to look forward to all day?"  An immediate panic attack set in knowing that happy hour wouldn't be there to greet me at 5:30pm.  And then I realized I had  2 more weeks without alcohol, without cheese very soon, and without grains.  It would not be hyperbolic to say I entered a state of catatonia.  Once my nerves revived themselves, I took a step back, and realized that this was no biggie.  That this mountain was really a molehill and I could get over it, not to mention there will be benefits to this.  Lots and Lots of benefits.  So when you find yourself facing the Mt. Chimborazo (which is actually this highest mountain, see here) revive your nerves, take a step back, and see it for the molehill it is.

Today is NYX Full Throttle Lipstick in Trickster  lined with MAC Lip Liner in Currant.  On the eyes I went dark and mysterious with the Parfait on the lid, Provence in the crease, and Tres Chic in the outer corner and lower rim from Too Face Le Grand Chateau palette.
