    MAC face charts

    I did a search on the forum for a collection of previous MAC face charts and found a post directing to the "Gallery" portion of the website. Unfortunately, I can't find it and am wondering if it got shuffled (axed?) in the move to the new (or not so new - I haven't been around in a while!)...

    I'm in love

    I have found the holy grail. I bought UDPP a few months back because of all the wonderful things I'd read about it, and have to admit, I kind of hated it. I found it to be watery, with a consistency that didn't allow much to stick to it. And it creased on me. I don't mean it would crease my...

    Red Velvet shadestick is my new love EOTD

    I never bothered buying shadesticks before, but I think all of that is about to change. On a mini haul at my local MAC store this past Saturday, I picked up, among other things, Red Velvet and Lemon Chiffon, figuring I could find some use for them. Best. Impulse. Buy. Ever. Red Velvet, the...

    Planning my first MAC Pro trip

    So my boy finally made it home from Iraq (2 tours, not a scratch on him thank God) and will be heading home on leave in a little less than 2 weeks so we can go to his best friend's wedding. He's not sure yet at this point if it's going to be a weekend leave or if he'll get to take some of the...

    EOTD - Red and black

    I caved this weekend and bought a MUFE eyeshadow ... WOW these things are pigmented. I don't own anything even remotely similar to #99 (scarlet red), so I figured what the hell? Here's the look I did with it today. I did the "match my outfit" thing, so this was in conjunction with a black...

    Should I try matching this dress?

    My honey is coming home from Iraq in a few days and we're going to his best friend's wedding in two weeks. I found THE most gorgeous dress, but now the dilemma is do I try to match my eyes to the dress, or do I go for something smokey and bypass the dress color entirely? Here's the color ...

    Another EOTD - Blue/orange look + upside down glasses bonus

    I don't like this one nearly as much as the green from yesterday, but it's certainly not the worst I've ever done. The liner wing is different on both eyes, simply because I was running late this morning and really didn't have the time to fix it. I also smudged my mascara slightly under my...

    Green EOTD - This one goes out to Tish!

    I bought a lovely pigment from Tish last week, Gilded Green, and used it for the first time this morning. My. God. How could anyone who loves greens not own this pigment? All products used are MAC, except UDPP. I do have the rest of my face made up, but I just want to focus on the eye here...

    First FOTD - Bright blue.

    I finally decided to jump in head first and post an FOTD. I can't believe how nervous I am about this!! My brows are in desperate need of cleaning up, but I just haven't had the time. Hopefully this week! And for some reason, it doesn't look like the black is blended well. It looked much...

    Problem getting color to stay

    I'm not sure if this is the proper forum for this, so if I'm misposting, I'd appreciate one of the mods moving this to its appropriate section. I've noticed lately that I'm having trouble getting colors to stick to my right eyelid. This holds true whether it's the pressed shadows or pigments...

    Estee Lauder Warehouse SALE - Long Island

    Ok ladies and gents, it's that time of year again when EL holds their warehouse sale in Hauppauge, NY. My employer gets tickets every year, but I've actually never been able to go. But this year, I'm free and clear. I was able to snag a few tickets and have FOUR extras (as of now ...

    Brigette's Boutique

    I came across this site earlier today, and a search of the forums turned up a few mentions of it, but I was wondering how everyone who has purchased from Brigette's Boutique knows their items are authentic. Randomly clicking on a few items, I noticed there are 181 "Squeeze It" lipglasses...

    Last Looks NYC Makeup Academy - experiences?

    I'm looking into taking a class this April in NYC. It's offered by Last Looks Makeup Academy and is a full day (9am - 6pm) just about the eyes. At the end of the course, they give you a 14-piece brush set. The fee is $349. Steep at first glance, but not if you consider the course is 9...
