    At my wits' end with concealing dark lids/undereye circles

    Happy Sunday, ladies!! I'm sure there's probably a few threads on here that are similar, but I am about ready to tear out my hair when it comes to concealer. I have light medium yellow toned skin (probably around an NC20 with MAC) and darkness around my eyes, pretty much all the way...

    Dating 2 guys at once and getting a little stressed

    Hi all, It's been over 3 years since my last serious relationship. About 6 months I started dating someone I had dated years and years ago and that flopped after about a month. Finally, last month right before Christmas, a few work friends talked me into signing up for an online dating site...

    Celexa...the right decision?

    Long story short (as much as possible), I've been really down in the dumps for probably the past 6 months. I think it's been weighing on me longer than that but it's really hit me in the past few months. Basically, I've been single for over 3 years now. My last relationship ended with me...

    I just don't get my skin

    Since I hit 30, I feel like my skin on my face has just been on one huge roller coaster. Before, I was able to stick with the same routine for years and years and it worked for me. Between 29 and 30 it was like my skin decided it needed to be like a contrary teenager. I'm 32 now and the past...

    Does having a pixe cut make you dress or do makeup differently?

    I recently took the plunge and had my near shoulder length hair chopped. Pixied really. I had been growing my hair out for my friend's wedding b/c I wanted it to be long enough to put up and wasn't super happy with how it was looking. It was the longest it had been in quite some time and I felt...

    Skin care before/during/after the gym

    Here's my question. Or more like feeling everyone out on what they may think or do in this situation. I read in a magazine last week (I think it was Health or maybe Fitness) that something good to do would be to apply whatever serum you use before you start working out. This one person said that...

    Stuck in a funk...no date in sight and a tense week with the best friend

    This may be long. I apologize. I haven't been on in awhile but I'm hoping for some good feedback, insight, advice, whatever. Anything is appreciated. I thank whoever reads this in advance for taking the time to read my sob story. I think maybe just writing about it will make me feel a bit...

    Essential oils--where to buy?

    Happy Mardi Gras to everyone!! Off and on over the years I've been interested in aromatherapy and essential oils and recently became very interested in it again. I work part time at Bath and Body Works which I think began my interest years ago when I first started there. Back then, we...

    Blue Storm pigment question

    Looking over the new collections the other day, my friend Michelle sent me a link to an older collection, Blue Storm, to look at the product pics and we both loved just about everything in the collection. Eventually that brought us to realizing there was a LE pigment called Blue Storm and after...

    Hey ladies!! I am MOH in my best friend's wedding next month so it's getting close! Her uncle, who used to work for MAC, will be doing our m/u for the big day free of charge but he had one request: that we each bring our own foundation. Now, I'm usually a tinted moisturizer or powder...

    Life In Color: Visual Therapy's Guide to the Perfect Palette... has anyone read this?

    I wasn't sure where to post this thread since it's not technically about m/u and I'm not really asking for recommendations from anyone so please feel free to move if not in the correct spot... I got this book the other day with a g/c I got for Xmas and I was transfixed by this...

    Recs for a foundation that's a step above a tinted moisturizer...any brand welcome

    Like so many other people, my skin does weird things at weird times and I don't really consider myself to fall into any specific skin type category. During the summer it seems to be mostly normal with a bit of oiliness here and there. During the cooler months and into winter, it seems to get...

    I posted awhile back about some frustrations I was having being a maid of honor in my best friend's wedding. Basically the 2 other bridesmaids plus the bride's mother and aunt are hosting the bridal shower and we are splitting the costs between us when it's over. The bride's mother emailed all...

    Opinions on hostess gift for a shower: to give or not to give

    Let me start off by saying that I know wedding etiquette isn't quite what it used to be. I also know that in some aspects, the wedding phenomenon tends to get way out of hand with some people. I'm a believer in doing what's right for your or your wedding or your situation and not worrying over...

    Letting hair air dry without looking like a mess...

    I'm hoping to get some ideas or suggestions for my hair. I have short, chin length dark brown hair that is not super thick but also not thin. If I don't use a straightener, it usually curls/waves slightly in some spots. I live in Louisiana so I battle humidity constantly and therefore end up...

    Determining if you have Crohn's

    I'm just a little curious if anyone on here has/is being tested for Crohn's? I was diagnosed back in 2002 with ulcerative colitis and over the past year and a half, things have gotten worse for me. I was taking Asacol up to 4x daily and then the Xmas before last had to have my tonsils out so I...
