​On this day, November 20, 2002 I had a bilateral mastectomy for stage 3 carcinoma in situ. I am happy to be a survivor. if my message of the value of early detection can inspire you to pay attention to your body, conduct breast self exams and get your mammograms accordingly, then this is an even happier day for me!!! Makeup played a huge role in my recovery. Thank you all for participating in this theme thread and for making it fun and inspiring!!!! Hugs to you all!!!!

I'm late but Happy 13 year anniversary!! I promised myself to pay more attention to my body both what I put into it and how it responds and your post is another push in that direction! I'm soooo happy that you are here and alive and enjoying life! Here's to 13+ more years of embracing life (and buying more makeup, and floppy hats, and boots and fashion jewellery, and .... you get the drift lol :hugs:)

Hoping to see @Medgal07 soon! I can't "enter" or post the pic lol Today I'm wearing the left shade from Gucci Fume eyeshadow duo on the lid with the two shades from Gucci Agate eyeshadow duo on the browbone and inner corners. Bought a full size Lancôme Definicils mascara. Wish they would update that silver packaging.

So am I!

I wore a very simple look today. The base is the same as in the past month, only the highlighter is different - Porcelain pink; RN liner and RN mascara on the eyes and UD Blackmail on the lips.

Hey, Stunner! Re: SP the taupe and pale pink shades take a few more passes than usual to build up and the plum shade is not as vibrant on me but overall all the shades work perfectly together. I'm glad I got it! I used the medium shade in Terracotta Joli Teint and it was darker than my skin tone but gave it a lovely, even coverage and warmth. It wasn't off from my neck but the ingredients were not good for me.

My first time posting a fall look on here, so here it goes...

very pretty ladies!

I'm disappointed in Chanel SP quad. The plum isn't very vibrant on me at all. When I use the taupe and plum together, it just looks dark and I can't distinguish btwn the two colors.

It's not very vibrant on me, either @Prettypackages. I do like it a lot, though.

marsha and wicked shape - nice looks!

i randomly ended up passing by a mac store today...and walked away with much much more than i had expected! it has been a while, so maybe that's ok...i got two prolongwear lip cremes (limitless & soft sell) and a mattene (personal pick). i'd say they're all related shades, but strangely i don't think i have anything like them in my collection, so i had to change that, pronto.

i also picked up one of those fluid line/paintpot/mascara sets...the one with macroviolet. i always feel that those are a good deal but have never purchased one till now. and everybody needs a macro violet in their life...
