Do you have any geeky friends? It's possible your computer is infested with something that's messing with your browsers.

Also, I kind of like the artist's crazy nails.

I dunno, but it looks like she has spikes on one fingernail - on the hand holding the brush up to the model's eye...

Ooo, ooo, I am curious what you are doing to your hair??? Me too.  I am thinking a bruised, mauvy pink but that may just be my wishful thinking.  I hope its matte or slight shimmer, not glitterama. The prospect of getting them clean makes my hackles rise.  As much as I think they are adorable, I would worry about the germs.  But, I guess they could be disinfected with a little alcohol, eh?

Oooooh, don't use alcohol on your brushes! :nope:

I was in shock for a moment there. But then I realized I have the same problem on my laptop (windows), my Ipad, my phone (android) and on another laptop that isn't mine

Weird... thanks for thinking along with me though

I can't believe I'm already getting impatient. Nah. I'm not really shocked about this. I'm dying to find out more on our Fall collections. Antonio Lopez, Rick Baker, the Marilyn redo and whatever else may be lurking around the corner for us. I'm also getting impatient because I'd love to see photos of our Baking Beauties collection and the Nudes & Metallics. Anyone know when our next update will be? Tx.

Spectra has slowed down a lot now that we aren't getting thing new for brains to process.

Yes I did! When I was a teenager all I did was blow dry my hair straight. When I finally decided to leave it curly everyone thought I got a perm because no one realized I had curly hair!!

My mom isn't a fan when I get my hair straightened. I even did the Japanese straightening back in 2003 when it first became popular. Unfortunately, my hair grew out too fast. I had a bunch of curls on top and stick straight on the bottom.

I had to cut all my hair off. So, now I just let me hair get straightened after I have it cut. As a treat.

I used to hate having curly hair, and when I discovered straighteners in my early teens I was so happy! But I've realised that my face realllly doesn't suit straight hair, so I'm constantly trying to get it back to it's former really really curly state!

ORLY? I only use if I need to get something really caked on there off, like Paint Pot leavings. Will it damage the bristles?

Yeah it dries out the hairs and makes em break off. Use olive oil to break down built up product, then wash afterwards.

thanks for the heads up. EVOO has really been of use lately. It is the best thing too for my winter dry skin.

Ok, I am curious...peeps-HELP ME figure this out. I went to this website: http://fashion.telegraph.co.uk/beauty/Article/TMG9866932/822/New-York-Fashion-Week-Oscar-de-la-Rentas-lipstick-rainbow.html If you scroll down the page to the highlighted part that says: MAC Venetian Lustreglass. CLICK ON IT. It took me to some gorgeous lustreglasses on the UK MAC website. Wth! These ARE NOT on the US website. Are these new, UK exclusive, wth's the deal? I want a few!LOL Oh! BTW the model with bold brows and super shiny red lips is wearing Venetian lustreglass. Freaking gorgeous!!

 

[erine1881]

The article is a UK article. Venetian, and all the other lustreglasses, are on the US site.

Are you using it on your face or body? What about the smell? (I don't find it pleasant enough to leave on my skin.)

I'm a ditz. I dunno what is going on with my mobile MAC website. I tried searching for them again and they came up. Sorry, now I feel like an idiot:/

I apply olive oil directly to dry patches. If my feet are really dry, I would apply then put socks over it to keep it from smearing on the floor. I have thought about putting it on my hands then put gloves (or socks missing their matches) over my hands until it soaks in and isn't greasy anymore, but haven't tested that yet.

What really works well for me is to take a bath and put about 8 oz of olive oil directly in the water. I will be all oily when I get out, but a towel drying will keep me from sliding everywhere. I give it about 10 minutes to absorb before I put on any real clothes, although I will sit around letting it soak in wearing scrub shorts and scrub shirt. The smell isn't too bad, it does smell a little like olives but the scent doesn't last. You could put a few drops of another oil in there you like (like lavender or rose) to overpower the olive scent. I do use it on my face, but lately been using Coconut Oil for that purpose. Its greasy as all get out but makes great eye make up remover. I have used olive oil as mascara remover in a pinch as well but I prefer the coconut oil. It does smell coconutty if that smell is more appealing to you than olives LOL. I just buy the really inexpensive olive oil for this purpose, since I am not tasting it I figure the cheap stuff will be fine. I find both of these work WAY better than any product I have purchased for moisturizing.

I need to take baths more often. I grew up not owning a shower so when I could shower on the regular I think I associated it with wealth and never looked back. LOL. Plus I hate sitting in dirty water. I just added some olive oil to my lotion after my shower so hopefully it helps my itchy dry winter skin. Thanks for the feedback.

Try light olive oil, it's less smelly.

Cold pressed is even better!
