Capitol Colours

The Hunger Games is less than four weeks away. It's totally acceptable to get caught up in the excitement now, right? Have you heard about the line of nail polish by China Glaze?



Hmmm... I imagined that "Colors From The Capitol" would be really bright or maybe even neon. These colors are kind of muted and some are even boring, but there are a few I wouldn't mind trying. Which shade would you wear? The names are fun and each color is tied to a district.

Luxe and Lush – District 1 (Luxury)
Stone Cold – District 2 (Masonry)
Riveting – District 3 (Technology)
Hook and Line – District 4 (Fishing)
Electrify – District 5 (Power)
Fast Track – District 6 (Transportation)
Mahogany Magic – District 7 (Lumber)
Dress Me Up – District 8 (Textiles)
Harvest Moon – District 9 (Grain)
Foie Gras – District 10 (Livestock)
Agro – District 11 (Agriculture)
Smoke and Ashes – District 12 (Mining)

By the way, the animated ads for Cinna’s Eyeliner, Seneca Crane’s Razor and Caesar Flickerman’s Toothpaste are awesome! These products aren't real, of course, but they are pretty and fun. I love all the promotion for this movie!

Nightly Routine

Last week, Jacob and I finished a movie around 10:30 and both decided to go to sleep. We came upstairs, he brushed his teeth and plopped in bed. I came to bed 20 minutes later. He asked what on Earth takes me so long. So I broke it down for him.

Brush teeth


Floss


Remove makeup


Wash face


Moisturize face


Spot treat blemishes


Apply eye cream


Apply lip ointment


Moisturize hands


Moisturize feet


It's a ten step process! And yes, that's a lot of moisturizing. Winter really takes a toll on my sensitive skin.
It takes me almost as long to get ready for sleep as it does to get ready for the day.

What is your nightly routine? How can I cut mine down?
