Hi ladies, wasn't sure where to post this so if it needs to be moved I'll understand. I hope management at the Sephora store in Santa Monica, CA is reading this so you can make improvements at your location. I will NOT shop there again because my experience last Saturday was so negative. I...

Ooh this is too funny - just received an email about a town in Austria with the unlikely name of Fucking. It seems like there was an epidemic of street sign theft. Locals believe that tourists from the UK are the most likely culprits and have developed anti-theft street signs. Sigh, if I ever...

I have loved my foray into mineral makeup since I first discovered them a couple years go and will likely NEVER go back to the conventional stuff. As my skin has normalized somewhat and is no longer as oily as it was, I noticed in the winter, no matter how much lotion or primer I used...

This is a little tongue in cheek-maybe, I just don't know if this is a hoax or not. It looks like they're taking it seriously, what do ya'll think? It's always been interesting to me the paths we take to find the same thing. It's truly about the journey and I respect the paths we all take...

Hi, I checked the Stila website and can't find any reference as to whether they test on animals or not. Does anyone know? TIA! Athena

When I was in my teens and constantly breaking out with pimples, I hated my skin and envied the peers that never ever broke out. After my skin cleared up in the twenties, however, I still got all kinds of shiny, I was still prone to blackheads and envied my peers that never got the shines or...

Someone very close to me has a serious problem with opiates. About 10 years ago, he was diagnosed with depression and anxiety and was prescribed drugs to counteract these problems. He drinks hard alcohol in addition to taking these prescriptions even though it clearly states on the warning label...

Sorry if posts about "why was this thread deleted?" aren't allowed, but I noticed a particularly interesting thread in Deep Thoughts was removed over the weekend. Why can't a bunch of grown women discuss important topics without hurt feelings, name calling and ill will to the point where...

I've had reservations about Obama's membership in The Trinity Church for months now. I'm very glad that the mainstream media has finally picked up on the extremely anti-American, inflammatory speeches spouted by rev. Jeremiah Wright. ABC News: Obama's Pastor: God Damn America, U.S. to Blame for...

I recently learned about a new method of cutting naturally curly hair called the Deva cut. Apparantly the stylist cuts your hair dry, slicing into each individual curl rather than the wet method where curly hair is cut all at once then left to "spring back" to it's natural length. I'd like to...

I picked up the Cargo Eyelighter at Sephora a couple days ago, thinking it was a white eyeliner pencil. Instead it's a double ended white paint thingamabob that I have no idea how to use! . The sharp, matte side is supposed to be used to brighten on the outer corners and the rounded, shimmery...

OK, I kind of feel like an idjit for asking this, but how do you use the MAC 162 small contour brush? I went to the CCO at Ontario Mills in hopes of finding the MAC 187 skunk brush, but they didn't have any. Instead, I picked up the 107 [fan brush] and the eyebrow brush in addition to the 162...

I don't know if I just now noticed this or if this is a new feature, but it's kind of bothersome. I use the advanced search feature quite frequently but if I don't get any results and try to search again, I get a message to the effect that I have to wait for 60 seconds to begin another search...

Hi all, I'm looking to purchase a good set of makeup brushes. My current ones are just so so. I was considering MAC brushes given all the great reviews but I'm just not willing to shell out that kind of $$ especially for the synthetic brushes. I'm looking for alternatives to brushes by MAC...

I've seen a few threads dedicated to porcelain beauties and for those with deeper color; how about a thread just for mid-tone girls? I don't use MAC foundation but have been matched with NW25 in MAC, medium beige in BE. Or do us happy mediums have less trouble finding makeup that works for us...

Be Careful Out There: IDIOT SIGHTING: We had to have the garage door repaired. The Sears repairman told us that one of our problems was that we did not have a 'large' enough motor on the opener. I thought for a minute, and said that we had the largest one Sears made at that time, a 1/2...

My politics is best described as a Jeffersonian conservative. In today's world, I'm a libertarian. With all these interesting threads we have going on in this forum, I thought it would be a good idea to refresh ourselves on one of the most fundamental aspects of our Constitution. The 10...

I was a little sad to hear he died. I've always been fascinated by the explorers and quests to go where no one has gone before; especially when they're wrapped around mountain climbing and Mount Everest. I read about the first few and unsuccessful attempts to summit Everest and Hilary's...

Ever since Hilary Clinton announced her candidacy, it's just been assumed that she would win the democratic nomination. It's nice to see she's being knocked off her throne and can't take the women's and black voters for granted. Although I'd love to see a woman president, I would never vote for...
