RBL Scrangie - Some people drink coke!

Hello Friends!

I've had a pretty rough day today. I think I slept all of 4 hours - 4 disjointed hours. The hubs (my bf but thats what I call him...maybe that's bad...he likes it though) was in town this weekend and his flight was at oh-my-god-even-the-animals-are-asleep:30 so we had to get up. Neither of us are morning people, to put it mildly. As a consequence I've alternated between being dead on my feet/pumped full of caffeine today, and now I've just come home and it feels empty and sad so I need a little pick-me-up in addition to the vat of Diet Coke I drank - enter Rescue Beauty Lounge Scrangie!




Excuse the application. I'm on a serious caffeine high and I'm literally shaking. It's a testament to the RBL formula that this doesn't look like a total crapgasm. No clean-up because I can't be arsed right now.

I received this is a swap - my first ever swap! - from a wonderful NB'er. I've heard this described as a duochrome so I was a bit skeptical (sorry duo people...they make me feel queasy...don't know why, it's non-sensical) but everyone's pictures just looked so great and I am gaga for the rest of the blogger collection so I snapped it up!

I was not disappointed! To me this doesn't read duochrome. It reads glorious purple with green shimmer and I love it! It's just what I needed right now to power through. Not being a glitter kinda gal this is as blingy as I typically get. This definitely makes me smile and makes everything seem a little less draining. Isn't it amazing what some colour and a little bit of nail polish can do for your mood! :)

Four thumbs up for Scrangie because right now I'm shaking so hard I'm seeing double!
