    Need a Pro Opinion please! (At-home foil highlights)

    Hey everyone.. so I saw this video at totalbeauty.com (see below) and I got the itch to do my own foils, being that it's cheaper and I only want a few and not a full head of highlights. Link ----> Create Gorgeous Highlights at Home Part One There's a part 2 of the vid there on the site as...

    Ok, finally got the guts to post!

    I'm starting off with only eyes though, because I'm weird about my face being all over the interwebs. I'll come out of my shell eventually, haha... I was feeling a little colorful this evening. This isn't what I would wear to the office every day obviously, I'm trying to get myself out of the...

    The Promise of Pushups

    Ok, reading this article is making me want to go home and do pushups, hahah I never really thought about them being better than using dumbells or weight machines, but if you do them in proper form they work several muscle groups. I thought this was a pretty good read/motivation. Hey if you...

    Coordinating Eye Makeup and Clothing

    There may already be a thread on this but I couldn't find one in my searching... How do you coordinate your makeup to the outfit you wear that day? Do you have a general rule to not match your eyeshadow exactly to the color shirt you're wearing, or does anything go? Or, do you just go by...

    Eastbound and Down (HBO)

    Is anyone else watching this show? OMG, it's hilarious! Will Ferrell is an exec-producer, you can definitely tell just by watching. Even if you're not a fan of Will Ferrell's movies, it's a funny damn show. This is one of very few shows the boyfriend and I can sit there and watch, and be...

    Covergirl Lash Blast Luxe -- New shimmery mascara

    So, I stumbled upon this display today at Walgreens. Looks interesting.. I guess they've used the same formula but added colored shimmers to create Black Emerald (green shimmer), Black Platinum (silver shimmer), Black Cabernet (burgundy shimmer) and Black Royale (blue shimmer). Perhaps this...

    How do you keep those pen-brush things clean?

    I'm talking about the YSL Touche Eclat type applicator, where you click the button to release the product into the brush and then apply.. I don't have the actual YSL one, but the Boots Radiant Glow concealer (which is a great dupe apart from this one issue). I've had it for about a week, and...

    Cosmetic surgery addict INJECTS COOKING OIL INTO HER OWN FACE

    Wow! This is just horrifying! She ran out of silicon, so she decided cooking oil was the next best option? First of all, it's screwed up enough that she was given syringes and silicon by her doctor to inject herself at home. Obviously this lady has severe mental problems, because look...

    This lovely little gem of a brush...

    So, I was in TJ Maxx the other day (outlet store, for those of you not in the US) browsing around their beauty section and I stumbled upon this kabuki brush for $4.99 marked down from about $12. At first I was skeptical because typically you get what you pay for when it comes to brushes, and I...

    The glaucoma drug that makes lashes grow longer/thicker/darker??

    Um, gimme? Quote: A drug that combats a debilitating eye disease could see mascara consigned to the dustbin after tests found it also doubles eyelash growth. So convincing are the side-effects of Glaucoma treatment Lumigan that its maker plans to apply for a cosmetic licence in the...

    Has anyone ever sent their Tweezermans to be sharpened?

    ...and gotten them back? I have 2 pairs of the pointed tip tweezers, they are my absolute favorite. My pink ones have been dropped on the tip several times and they don't seem to grip hairs as well as they should. I lost the little rubber cap that protects them. So I know they offer free...

    The Hair "Crack" ...are they for real?

    Quote: At Chicago's Asha SalonSpa, clients are going for a service known as "The Crack," in which a one-inch-wide and three-inch-high section right above the nape of the neck is shaved (sort of a stripe up the middle, from the neck up). Just.... WHYY??! I hope this isn't the...
