Running The Chicago Marathon for Charity

I am running the 2009 Chicago Marathon in October to raise money for PAWS of Chicago. PAWS is a large no-kill animal shelter that also has a spay/neuter clinic and feral cat spay and release program. I have agreed to raise a minimum of $600 for PAWS and certainly would like to raise even more! More about PAWS is available at my donation page.

If you are a reader, blogger or business, you can also learn about how you can help on the Charity Page here on this site. Bloggers and businesses can gain exposure and free ad space by donating!

I you want a more humorous (and more pleading) look at my fundraising efforts, visit my dog Ty’s blog, Puppy on a Roomba for more.

In any event, please consider donating. Thanks!

Long Wearing Lip Color

I have found very few long wearing products that I can put up with. However, I love MAC Lustre Twins and Dior makes some standard lipsticks that last incredibly well.

For a deeper look at some long wearing products, also take a look at my review of Revlon, CoverGirl, Maybelline, and Milani long wearing products on Beauty on Fashion Tech.

Below is an article syndicated from Total Beauty on the matter that looks at some of the products that I have previously reviewed and more.
