An Open Letter To Revlon …

An open letter to Revlon …

I just sent the below email to Revlon, and their response was for me to call their Customer Services about this.
The outcome of the phone call is … well I have used the product, and maybe I should switch to a different formula such as ColorStay Liquid Foundation or PhotoReady Foundation.
Considering I spent $42 for a Revlon Foundation, that I reached the bottom of the pan on the 2nd of usage, I am NOT impressed!!!

This was a big investment for me, as $42 is allot to spend on a Foundation for me, as I usually use Avon products.






The email sent  to Revlon …

Hi There,

Last week I purchased the new Revlon Colorstay 2-iN-1 Foundation {the new one on the market}, in Ivory.
I reached the bottom of the Compact on the 2nd day I used it!
When I went back to the Pharmacy, I was told I must be very heavy handed.
I pointed out {politely} that I am a {former} Make Up Artist, but was told not is these words though, but tough shit, and was suggested that I buy a MakeUp Brush for the remainder of the Compact.
I am NOT impressed!!!
All I ask is that the makeup Compact be exchanged with a Revlon Liquid Foundation.
I have booked in with the Revlon MakeUp Artist that is visiting Farmers Richmond late next weekend {Thursday/Friday/Saturday 31.03.2016 – 02.04.2016}, and can return the Compact to her then.

Best wishes,
Kathe.

So be warned, if you do decide to outlay $42 for the new Revlon Colorstay 2-iN-1 Foundation, be prepared to flush your money down the sink.

My Daughter Made It Into The Local Paper ...

So anyone that knows me, knows that I keep my children out of social media, and I don't share photos of them on my website, or on any off my social media platforms.
So imagine my surprise today when I received an email from a friend about our daughter today!
I didn't even know she was at Nelson Intermediate yesterday {my hubbie just informed me that he signed the permission slip for the school excursion}, or even that her photo had been taken for the local paper!!!

At least she looks cute and is having fun!



Dusty Deserves His Own Post! …


Dusty, 3am in the Bathtub!!!

Dusty Deserves His Own Post! …

You may have discovered by now that we have a gorgeous cat called “Dusty”.
Dusty is a Russian Blue, and is the most gorgeous cat I have ever met!
Since Dusty came into the family, he gets up to daily high jinks, and terrorizes the neighbours, by leaving wee gifts of birds in their homes!
Some of our neighbours even give him treats, and my crafty ladies quite often stop in with cat biscuit samples they have been given in the “Junk Mail”!
Aside from high jinks, Dusty’s other occupation is  … sleeping, and he loves to sleep!


Dusty was a gift from a family, who read online what happened to our previous cat, who was attacked by 3 dogs, and subsequently had to be put down.
Nike had been in our family for 23 years, so it was really hard to see her put to sleep.
I wrote about the dog attack on Facebook, and a girl {now a lady!} whom I went to High School with {25 years ago!!! – you do the math!}, read the post on Facebook, and made contact via a private message, saying that their family would love to give our family a kitten, as their Moma cat was about to have a gorgeous wee litter of kittens!
We met Dusty when he was 5 weeks old, and brought him home when he was 6 weeks old.
As you may have gathered, we are dotty over Dusty, and I just can’t help but share photos of his antics!   Dusty even has his own hash tag #dusty!
I just went through my Facebook posts, dating back to January 2015, and this is what I came up with …
