    REN Skincare

    Has anyone tried this brand? I go to Sephora probably at least once every 2 weeks b/c I'm becoming a skin care junkie and was looking at some stuff that had AHA's in it when I came across the REN line. I've eyeballed it quite a few times but on my last trip I got the Frankincense Revitalizing...

    Worried about my best friend...

    Once again I turn to you ladies and gents for advice. I'm at a loss on what to say or do or if I should even open my mouth... I've been best friends with J since high school but we've know each other since kindergarten. We're both 31 now. J has seen me through my train wreck relationships with...

    Getting "back out there"...again

    Long story short b/c I can be long winded, it's been almost 2 years since I broke up with my last b/f. I'm 31 right now. It was something that was right for me and I haven't ever regretted that decision. I had a few other relationships before him but he was one of my longer ones, lasting almost...

    Erin's skin: 3, Erin: 0 Losing the battle

    Just like other people on here, I feel like I'm losing the battle with my skin. Since right before I turned 30 (I'm 31 now), I feel like it's just been one big trainwreck. Long story short, my skin gets dehydrated in the winter and then starts getting oilier when the warm weather hits but this...

    Keeping powder from looking too "powdery" :-P

    I saw a video recently on YT and can't remember who did it but one of the things they did was suggest a product that I think they sprayed on their face to help their setting powder look less "powdery" and more natural and I'd really like to try something of that sort. I generally use powder...

    Using shimmery/iridescent products with somewhat enlarged pores

    Does anyone have any tips or recommendations on using shimmery or iridescent products when you have kind of enlarged pores? I really love that luminous, glowy look and maybe it's just not meant for me. The only place I have somewhat larger pores is on my cheeks right near my nose. It's not a big...

    Guerlain primers

    Has anyone tried any of the Guerlain primers? I saw them at Sephora and looked at them online and I'm really intrigued. I really want to try the Meteorites and since 2 of the primers have the "pearls" in it, I've been really curious about both. My skin has been doing really well lately with...

    Ross & Rachel...Who was right? Break or no break?

    I'm a self proclaimed Friends freak. I've posted on here before. I watch the DVD sets ALL the time. Basically when there's nothing on, I throw on a DVD and eventually go through them all. Yeah, I'm a geek. What can I say?? I've always wondered what people thought of the Ross and Rachel "we...

    Feeling a little bombarded...

    I'm not sure what the best course of action is for this situation as I have never really been in quite this type of situation before but any suggestions would be nice. It's nothing awful or stressful but just need some feedback from anyone who has experienced anything similar. Like alot of...

    From 1 prescription to 5

    I really need a place to vent/talk about my thoughts for a minute. I just turned 31 earlier this month and lately feel like my health is just going down the toilet and it's not even for anything major, just somewhat small things that I guess are "ganging" up on me. Long story short, I have...

    Dupe for Virgin Isle CCB

    I'd appreciate any recs on a dupe for Virgin Isle. Doesn't have to be MAC and I would prefer something that is a cream texture but powder is ok too. I saw a tutorial using it recently and really would love to get it or something like it. On a side note, when I searched it on MAC's site, it pulls...

    Darker foundation for darker concealer???

    Today I went to Sephora b/c I was looking for a new concealer to try. The last time I was "matched" to anything was awhile back and it was in MAC. I was matched to NC30 (and I've been told numerous times that I'm very yellow toned) and told I should use the NW20 concealer with it with the idea...

    Soda vs. tea vs. water

    As a teenager, I was an avid soda drinker. I went through phases with Coke then became a Dr Pepper freak. I also went through a stint where I was in love with Nestea in the can though now I can't stand the stuff. When I was a senior in high school, my boyfriend at the time was having issues with...

    My package was missing something important...

    Has this happened to any of you?? I live in LA and my friend Michelle lives in VA. Whenever we go to a CCO we try to find things the other is looking for. Well, she managed to find one of those Antiquitease Finery lip sets I had been looking for in coral (the one with the little white/silver...

    How did you come up with your Specktra user name?

    I've gotten a few questions here and there about my user name (which is also part of my email address as well) of euphrosyne_rose. Well, to be honest, I'm a Greek mythology nerd and have been since I was in the 3rd grade and saw Clash of the Titans for the first time. It really piqued my...

    Clearly Canadian?

    I don't know if anyone else will know/remember what I'm about to talk about, but back in the early to mid 90's, there was a carbonated flavored water called Clearly Canadian and it was sold in packs of 4. It came in a glass bottle and it came in different fruit flavors. I LOVED them. Absolutely...

    I SO am not great with styling my own hair...

    HELP!! I want to get my haircut and have an appointment tomorrow. I have dark brown hair (you can see it in my avatar pic) and it's gotten longer than what's in the pic. It's probably down to the top of my shoulders now and I wanted to let it grow out but I just can't take it anymore. For the...

    MAC Bronze Sugar/Gold Charm lipglass

    I'm counting on the limitless knowledge of you ladies here. Several years ago there was a collection that came out during the summer and the only things I remember about it are 2 lipglasses that were featured at the time in Cosmo magazine, Gold Charm and Bronze Sugar. The magazine was doing a...

    Shoulder pain

    OMG, I feel like I want to rip my left shoulder off my body! I was hoping someone here might have an idea on what the deal is but I think possibly I slept on it wrong. For about a week now it's been this steady, low key throbbing pain directly in the shoulder but sometimes it hasn't hurt at...

    Dark eyelids

    Hey ladies, I was wondering if any of you have dark eyelids and what you do or what you use for them? I'm an NC30 (probably more like 20-25 right now b/c I feel so pale!) and I've always had dark circles and dark eyelids for some reason. I always feel like without m/u, I look like death warmed...
