I have been using this Lancome mascara that my grandma bought me (got some gift card & decided to splurge on me, yay!) and it made my lashes so long that yesterday a few of them kept hitting the inside of my glasses lens! very distracting.
everyone should listen to Surm, wetslicks is the best gloss in the world.

it really is, i've become addicted
― Surmounter, Wednesday, 4 March 2009 16:39 (fifteen years ago) link
I get incredible colour* out of my Cover Girl outlast lpistick so I don't really use the gloss much but mmmm I want some now. Mine is strawberry!
*I had a dinner party last week and my friend said she'd "obsessed" over her lipstick because "Alexis always has the best lips" and I think that's the best comment about me in 2009!

i got some rimmel mascara today with a weird curvy brush why bc it look intersting. will see how it goes.
do they sell calrins @ macys? i have a gift card and i might just go after work. i feel like my diet and exercise have improved a lot in the past few months, but my stress and not sleeping have kind of canceled that out, so i need all the help i can get!
surm, i generally do not break out from moisturizers. the only time i tend to have blemishes is around my period (the one reason i miss being on birth control), but i have noticed that my skin has been a bit oilier this winter than last on basically the same care regimine. not sure why that is... my pores seem a little more clogged but not blemishy right now. should i get a facial?

Thanks for the tip on the Cover Girl Lash Blast. I'm going to give it a whirl. And yes, the larger Macy's sell Clarins. I've been using the eye gel since last summer and I tell you, when I forget to use it, people ask me if I'm sick or was I up all night. Ugh.

― roxymuzak, Sunday, 8 March 2009 10:06 (fifteen years ago) link
I got the lasblast too because I like big 80s lashes like Allys said and so far I really like it.
SS - I am liking the erase past but only for undereye area. Am still using CG stick concealer on any other blemishes etc.

any ladies like bare minerals? i have some never-opened "warmth" and foundation in "light" if anyone wants it. no way i will ever be dark enough to use this stuff. i will send it to you if you want it!
― yur twit (tehresa), Sunday, 8 March 2009 22:17 (fifteen years ago) link
you will never be dark enough to use light!!

glad u liked the wetslicks!
― Surmounter, Sunday, 8 March 2009 22:20 (fifteen years ago) link
i have to say, bare minerals always looks really good on my girlfriends. very smooth.
― Surmounter, Sunday, 8 March 2009 22:21 (fifteen years ago) link
i think i might buy this clarins contour gel, too. i don't even know if my eyes always looked like this but it is an emergency situation.
― horseshoe, Sunday, 8 March 2009 22:22 (fifteen years ago) link
it looksl ike crap on me (the bare minerals). just found the box for the starter kit with those two in it...
― yur twit (tehresa), Sunday, 8 March 2009 22:23 (fifteen years ago) link
i had to use fair. i think even fairly light was too dark?
guava splash wetslicks lip gloss is nothing short of amazing

I forgot about this thread/board. . .
I'm going to get some wetslicks although I'm sure I used it years ago and did like the stickiness. Can someone describe the sticky factor and staying power?

Reposted from ILE: thought this might be the thread to ask about............ eyelash perming.Sounds mental but my eyelashes are pretty long but dead straight, even drooping down at the outer corners which makes me look half asleep. I curl them with metal curlers that I heat up with a hairdryer for a few seconds but this doesn't last very long.
Anyone tried eyelash perming? If I could just get them to curl up 90 degrees I'd be happy!

i just bought a lipstick i love: yves st laurent rouge pur opium red. it costs more than a lipstick should cost, but guys it's awesome!
― horseshoe, Saturday, 2 May 2009 21:42 (fifteen years ago) link
i had no idea eyelash perming was a thing.
susan i didn't see your question!
WETSLICKS staying power is pretty good, and it's not a gross stickiness at all. feels very clean, and not gunky.
― Surmounter, Saturday, 2 May 2009 21:44 (fifteen years ago) link
much better than the neutrogena one, IMO

guys i have a new product. it's called Clinique City Block Sheer Shimmer with SPF15 in Golden. it's like a lightweight foundation/tinted moisturizer
― I love rainbow cookies (surm), Wednesday, 8 July 2009 15:59 (fourteen years ago) link
I had that one but I feel like it had a lot of sparkle. It was too much for daytime use for me but I feel like you could probably rock that.

man i want to try that

<3!
after all my bitching upthread i somehow bought more bare minerals (in fair, lol) the other day because it was $17 cheaper than the foundation i'd run out of (makeup forever hd stuff - amazing!) and now i am like uh why did i do that? i think it was bc my friend was here and her skin looked great and she was using it (also super white like me... maybe whiter). but now i am having buyer's remorse.
also that clarins eye stuff... i feel like after the first few uses, it did nothing? maybe you get used to it?
― tehresa, Wednesday, 8 July 2009 18:12 (fourteen years ago) link
i think i am allergic to this shit!!!
― tehresa, Saturday, 11 July 2009 01:29 (fourteen years ago) link
Ugh that sucks. Sorry Tza. I didn't like it much either. I've pretty much given up on foundation anyway. I don't really need it. I can cover what needs to be covered with a little concealer. I am, however, taking recs for a good pressed powder.
― \(^o\) (/o^)/ (ENBB), Saturday, 11 July 2009 01:33 (fourteen years ago) link
i remember not liking it before but i think i was just fooled by my friend's skin looking good. but damn. itchy! bumpy! and a little burny!!! :(
― tehresa, Saturday, 11 July 2009 02:37 (fourteen years ago) link
i returned that stuff but my face still has these unsightly tiny little bumps that i can't get to go away!! any products good for calming a bad skin reaction? it looks horrible. i feel like a teenager!
― tehresa, Wednesday, 15 July 2009 03:01 (fourteen years ago) link
i got ;this today. curious to see if it actually works! i used to use the smart shade. i am intrigued by the 'balancing' claim here. needed something a little lighter for summer. actually lately i am just using concealer and finishing with powder bc it is too hot/greasy for foundation.
― tehresa, Wednesday, 29 July 2009 04:07 (fourteen years ago) link
have yall tried this crazy thing or similar!
