Don't be fooled by the fancy header. Neon Bible is a blog for poor people. Poor people with credit cards and drawers full of MAC. We write about makeup, models, japanese jewelry, vancouver, and stuff you can buy at shoppers drug mart. Besides the internet, you can find us in Fukuoka, Montreal and Vancity.
Questions: Do you like to be turned on? Do you like bad boys with a heart of gold? Do you like them even more when they’re wearing a pea coat? Are your uh, late night fantasies becoming a little old hat and you’re looking for something/someone new to think about while you… drift off to sleep? If you answered yes to any of these than the question is… why aren’t you watching Twilight right now?
Seriously… porn for women.
Did anyone else feel like they wasted 11 Wednesdays after the results of the American’s Next Top Model finale? McKey? Are you effing kidding me?
1. That’s not a name
2. Why was she talking with a fake British accent when they were in Amsterdam?!
Every season I think I pick a winner and the she gets booted out in the final episode (Shandi anyone?). Rest in Peace Analeigh.
Anyways the real reason for this post, is Tyra’s outfit choice in the final judging. She looked like she belonged in David Lynch’s Dune. Not a good thing by the way. I call WTF.
Perfume is a perfect Christmas gift. I get a new bottle every year and I love spraying on a bit of my new scent before heading out to Christmas dinner and then as the months roll on, every time you put on your perfume you get the memory of the holidays (which hopefully is a good thing).
This year my heart is set on Bond no. 9 but due to the unfortunate economic timing, I’m guessing a 300 dollar bottle of perfume isn’t my parent’s top pick when it comes to gift giving. But perhaps I can tempt them with eight bottles of Bond no. 9 for the low low price of $130.00 USD.
From the press release:
For those who crave a mini-miscellany of Bond No. 9 scents, we’re introducing a box of eight pocket spray flacons, each containing a different New York neighborhood eau, and each delectably twist-wrapped in our award-winning signature foils. These are small enough to slip into an evening clutch bag, with plenty of room to spare. Plus, they’re refillable. $130.
Yes, it sounds almost too good to be true. Eight mini, sprayable Bonds for almost a third of the price of one bottle. And lets face it, perfume always goes south before you finish the bottle, and the idea of wasting about 100 dollars worth of perfume is… scary, so these potent portables are perfect.
No word on what scents are included in the pack, but how could you possibly go wrong?
And to my Canadian friends, yes, they will be available at Holt Renfrew.
For the man in your life
If you’re a Canadian girl who’s attached, there’s a 75 percent chance that your boyfriend has a beard or at least some form of scruffy facial hair. And who can blame them? It gets cold here in the Great White North, escpecially around Christmas time.
Another thing about Canadian men and their beards is that they take a shocking amount of pride in their styling and upkeep. While a guava seed extract infused cleansing conditioner may not get them excited, the idea of high end shaving and facial hair grooming products will.
This holiday season I’m heading over to Momentum Grooming in downtown Vancouver to shop for my bearded boyfriend.
Some suggestions:
Truefitt and Hill West Indian Limes shave cream for $33.00 CAD
Col. Conk Mustache Wax for $7.50 CAD
Anthony Logistics Shave Kit for $34.00 CAD
Momentum Grooming is located at 1237 Burrard Street in downtown Vancouver.
For the friend that loves to shop more than you do
Recently my mom said to me upon my return from a marathon of shopping “ya know, there’s more to life than being a Vancouver West Side shopaholic.” wrong.
For the friend with the never say die attidude when it comes to Sephora, why not pick her up the Sephora book. I reviewed this guy a while back, expressing that while its full of great pictures and some unconventional tips, which I love, its basically a big advertisment for the store. So if you can get past the fact that you just dropped 40 bones on a 200 page print ad this book can be a great field guide to the world of high end beauty. Plus it just looks so pretty.
The Sephora book is available at Chapters for the low low iRewards price of $18.77.
