My Ball of String becomes...

Lipsticks & Lightsabers! Tad-daa.

Welcome to the blog's new look, new name, and new URL. You can still use the old URL, as it will automatically re-direct, but you should update your bookmarks to www.lipsticksandlightsabers.com now, girls.

I used the same designer than Jen did, but was pleased to see how different and individual the outcome is (I was worried she'd be mad at me). I also had some icons made for use in my reviews, so here's introducing the new rating system.

Mad props for the designer, Zoe from Chic & Sassy Designs, whose work was quick, professional and quite clearly amazing.

RATINGS:

You know how this works, when someone reviews something it scores out of 5 stars. But because this is L&L, here instead of stars, products will be awarded a number of Internets in accordance to their awesomeness. A product can score anywhere from 0-5 Internets, and they look like this:


That's 4.5 Internets, right there.

In addition, my Holy Grail products will get "1337" status, deeming them completely win. That looks like this:

1337 is "leetspeak" for leet, which comes from the word "elite", and means totally pwn.

I hope you all love the new changes as much as I do! Don't forget to Follow me for your chance to win this awesome Eyeko Magic Eyeliner!

Ana - WOW love the new look. LOL I was wondering if you and Jen went to the same blogger dressing store.

I'm always slow to change but "you" look wonderful and like everyone else said, it fits your personality. <3

Pretty new design, I love it!
And I can't believe you had to explain 1337.

Thanks everyone! Haha Phyrra, I may not have had to, although at work, like our tills can bring up a clock display if you hit a button, and everytime it gets to leet o'clock (13:37) I bring up the clocks and leave them on the tills. Everyone's totally confused as to "why that keeps happening".
