Wait, there are bras that will support Ds or DDs that don't have wire? Where would one find such a magical item?

This doesn't work to tell what your faces undertones is. This method is so outdated. This only halfway works to tell what the undertone of your wrists are. You need to look at your face to determine your undertone, not your wrists. If you notice a golden colour, you're warm. If you notice a more blue/pink tone, you're cool. If you're an equal mixture, you're neutral.
Ooohh I never knew that. I just always figured the vein way. I guess that would explain why i feel like my body is all sorts of discolored. Thanks :)

I don't lend any credence to the vein thing since I can't tell either way.  I just look at my face.
:nods:
Right up there with unicorns, hippogriffs and fairys
Hey! Unicorns are real! :mad:

Yeah it's how they used to determine it way back when, before they actually realized "Hey, let's just look at the face, considering the makeup is being applied TO the face" hahaha.

has anyone ever tried any of the casual colors .. I'm really interested in the for your amusement one but i was just wondering if they're any good .. I'm mainly interested in using it as cream blush since my skin has been dry lately so I'm trying to figure out if they last as long as regular cream blush or any information really that people have had from experience

Warm tone/Cool tone swatches. Could any of you tell me if my husband is warm toned or cool toned? I'm like NW13, pretty sure I'm very pale cool-toned. But my husband is medium dark skinned and if he turned out to be warm toned, then I could post swatches for you guys side by side on warm and cool skin tones. With different lightness/darkness obviously, but I still think it could work. Do you think if I posted a couple pics someone could tell me? Or do I actually have to take him in to MAC? He's very biddable and I know I can force him to let me put makeup on him (I know from experience), so the swatches shouldn't be a problem, but getting him into a make-up store is like pulling teeth. It would be so neat though! I feel like nothing ever looks good on my terrible pink skin. It looks pretty yellow in the mirror but then when I stand next to a warm-toned person I realize I'm awful looking lol, but all the women in his family look amazing in everything I own, so I think he might have those warm-toned genes. It is REALLY hard not to turn him into a drag queen with his lovely full lips and rich skin color, but he says "make-up hurts." I've put fake eyelashes on his little male cousins and THEY don't think it "hurts." So... whiner lol. Anyway, lmk if that would be helpful!
is that him in your avi?? cute! and how cute. i used to dress my bf in highschool in goth drag. so funny. then i made him clean and vacuum my room my uncle came over to see my x in a goth dress fishnets garters, makeup doing my house work i still get teased about it!!! Nothing sexier than a good sport.

I do like the one i own, but Liba said the new ones are a bit different. The new ones are less sticky on checks which is good, but not as good on lips as the originals, so depends on how u intend to wear it. If you only want it for lips, skip it for sure. Its a product you kinda have to try for yourself. My skin is dry on my checks, i love the mac cremeblend blushes, they are fantastic.

I bought the Esperanza palette and actually returned it because the shadows were way too soft/powdery for me. I mean, the glitter was everywhere when I first opened it. Such a bummer because the colors were so pretty.
