DUWOP I GELS! MEG UPDATE OR JUST SCROLL DOWN TO DUWOP I GELS! I KNOW EVERYONE HAS ENOUGH DRAMA!

Tue, 04/15/2008 - 3:43pm
  • Eyes





Meg here with a definite TMI update. Then again, I think of all of you as my beauty friends so is there really ever TMI between beauty friends? Things have been a little off the rocker here over at megsmakeup.com. Why you ask? Well, I have moved into a new place in Hollywood (it's really cool actually). Why have I moved? Well, while I am a great beauty product user I am a miserable failure as a wife.

Yup, HOM and I have, without drama or fanfare decided it is best if we are bestfriends instead of married couple. We were together almost a decade and now that we can have our own unmarried life, we get along much better then we ever did trying to keep the facade of "happy married couple" up . It's a relief for both of us.

I am guessing, looking at marital statistics and things that a bunch of you can relate. Maybe you can't and if you can't then good for you! I'd like to say I'm jealous but I'm really digging the starting over part of my life right now.

That is why, without internet access (hoping they'll fix it tommorrow) the posts have been a bit scattered and there's just been some overall chaos so I'd like to apologize for that. Other then that, it's really all good and a much healthier situation all the way around so I'll be back on my game soon!

There have been some stresses, not major but just enough to have to rub the temples on my head and start up utilities, buy new plates and linens and getting all the ducks in a row.

In lieu of popping a xanax, I've found a refreshing way to relax (and cool off-Damn it has been hot here!)


DUWOP I GELS have really been a saving grace. There have not been too many tears, HOM and I have seen this departure coming for a while. Sometimes a frustration tear will make its way out of the eye duct "Time Warner will set up my internet..When!?!" To combat teary puffiness or exhausted eye bags I reach for my refridgerator. DuWops i Gels come in a pack of three, you keep them cool for ultimate rejuvenation.

They come in three colors, each color has a specific purpose Blue:refresh tired eyes with lavender, chamomile, and yarrow root.
Purple:smoothes fine lines with vitamin C and plant collagen.Orange:brightens darkness with arnica and vitamin K.
Choose from a set of Blue (reduces puffiness), or a set of Lavender (helps fine lines). Our Beauty and Well Being area has great aromatherapy products to enhance your true beauty. At this point I'm just looking for the "no zombie" look and they're doing fine by me.

These are very cool (no pun intended) they literally conform to your eye, the gel is solid but mushy and you can feel all the botanicals doing their relaxing work while you lay there and relax OR Lay there and contemplate your future life decisions. Whatever floats your boat really.


They really do a great job at reducing eye bloat (new term I just made up) and whenever my brown eyes get blue these i Gels make no one the wiser.

Heres what Duwop says about their new i Gels "Discs of cool gel that conform to the shape of the eye.Refresh the entire eye area in minutes by bathing the entire area in soothing, botanical extracts that calm, soothe, and brighten.'

This is a great gift for a newly single, a new mom, an insomniac, an allergy sufferer! Anyone whose eyes may get tired or puffy for that matter! The list goes on and on-lost your job? These are great! Working double shifts? These are a must have! Suffering from PMS? Grab some with your midol.

I appreciate all of you sticking with me during my megsmakeup.com transistion and wish I could send you each a pack. Who can't afford to relax a little?

Any other ladies love their Duwpo i Gels?

Meg, it was so sad to hear about you and HOM. You're both wonderful, but the important thing is that your happy and I know you are and that you will have many wonderful things coming to you in the future. And, since it was so amicable, that also means many wonderful years ahead of harrassing HOM for fun! I was getting my eyebrows waxed recently by the owner of the salon I go to. She decided to tell me she was going through a divorce. My response "Oh, I'm sorry to hear that". Her response, "Don't be! A lot of the clients I tell say 'congratulations'!). And with that we had a good laugh. So...Congratulations! I wish I were single sometimes too so here's to living the single life again (vicariouly through Meg!)!

I love you and HOM both and I wish the best! And I definitely will not stop poking him to death on Facebook. But at good old Sephora #80 in Fort Worth Texas, we often have a hard time keeping these I-Gels on the shelves! They feel so good ...even if you just have to have a 15 minute meditation while you're working hard on your thesis which is not finished but is still due on Monday. Oh wait, that's not me. I'm not meditating, I'm on Megsmakeup and I am not working on my thesis which is not finished but is still due on Monday...

Meg,Most people wait longer than they should to leave in a relationship. Life it way too short for that. I think it's wonderful that you two will be friends. Always better to get out of a relationship before all the happiness you shared can be undone.You'll do just great, I know it!!! Wishing you the best as always

Aww Meg, so sad to hear about you and HOM, guess that changes his name here. I'm glad you did something to make you happy in the long run. Like Olliebee, sorry if you're sad and congrats if it's a relief!

Boy...it's been a long time since I've logged in to my beloved MM site. Meg...I really can't bring myself to say congrats about your soon to be divorce...but I would like to say that as long as your happy, I'm happy. HOM seems like a wonderful man and I truly hope that neither of you is suffering. I'm also going through a divorce and that explains why I've been MIA for a while. I miss everyone so much and I miss reviewing products. I think we should have a divorce party...lol. I love you Meg...you were one of the 1st people to call me when all the crap went down and give me words of encouragment. Greenie....you are my savior...I love you more than you'll ever know. Without friends and great products :-)..we'd never survive this thing called life. Thank you.....and .......I'm BAAAAAACK!!!!!!!

I am somewhere between the "Congrats!" and "I'm sorry," lines, and no doubt you are doing the right thing. Here is to you and new beginnings! Those DUWOP I GELS sound wonderful, talk about taking lemons and turning them into lemonade Meg. You are awesome.

Meg and Tasha...I'm so sorry for what both you girls have been going through. Just know you always have your girls here to lift your spirits! Tasha I'm soooo glad your back. There was just something missing here without your great posts to read. Change is never easy, but it is usually worth it. I'll keep the positive thoughts heading both of your ways.

I want those! I'm addicted to buying this stuff! I need a job :(. This is my first day on this site and I love it..Your story made me so sad.. More sad then I would have been hearing a story about a messy blown up divorce. I can't explain it but it just sounds so.. Ugh I can't explain it, you sound like a very strong woman. That reminds me of my mom, very admirable. Okay you probably think it's weird that a 16 year old is posting haha. I love your site!

Oh, hell! Tash & Meg - I wish I could teleport you both 10 pounds of Dilettante Chocolate (a DIVINE Seattle chocolaterrie) or Bellinis... whatever. And when the moment fits - I offer y'all my congratulations.

this stuff sounds so good. I need them since I barely get any sleep or sometimes go to bed at 4am and wake up at 12pm. It is a bad routine and this makes my eyes look all dark and have dark circles.
