Besame Cosmetics, which makes a line of retro/1940s-style makeup, has a sampling service. You can try any product for $1.50 and the shipping is nominal. You receive enough product for about three applications in a tiny jar, which will certainly let you know whether or not you like the color. Check out the rest of Besame's site to see the neat packaging - definitely rivals some of Benefit's cooler stuff, for example. (via MightyGoods.)

(I used to love to buy powder from another retro line called Body and Soul, because every compact has a metal insert with an illustration of a girl who looks like a mermaid... however, it's become hard to find in stores and a little ouside of my current budget.)

Over at Shelterrific, they're discussing the "perfect" recipe for chocolate chip cookies. Looks good to me. I have been wanting to make chocolate-chip cookies lately, but I never have any butter in the house... normally we use Smart Balance spread, which doesn't come in sticks.

Nope, too poor. But when I'm working again, perhaps I'll try the red shades.
