    Anatomicals

    Has anyone heard of the brand? I personally love it, think it's originally from the UK and as I was running out of shampoo, I got myself the newest addition to their collection: Giving good head shampoo! Other notables include 'Another bloody shower gel' (blood-red orange-scented shower gel)...

    MAC brush sadness

    I was just about to win a bid for a #180 for 40 aud and I got sniped at the very last minute and what would have been my winning bid didn't go through. Man, I'm actually p*ssed. 40 aud for a #180 is about half price. Don't often get the chance. So angry! How silly of me.

    Serge Lutens fragrances, anyone?

    I had a dear friend go to Paris, on a fragrance tour, and she was kind enough to pick up a bottle of Bois de Violette EDP which isn't available in Australia. Well, it arrived the other day! I told her not to send it till I'd paid her back in full for it. It's divine! So sophisticated and not...

    Plum FM Asia/Paris exclusive l/s

    Anyone ever heard of it? Says it is part of Rock It 2004 but that it was only available in Asia and Paris. LE of course. I saw a link for it on the evil auction site...

    a MAC ongoing story

    Not sure if this will work, but it's inspired by spelling out your name using MAC eyeshadow names. This is broader - except you have to post a sentence that continues the 'story' and you MUST use the name of a MAC product - any one you so desire. I can imagine this would be so fun in groups or...

    LE confusion over Jewelbright l/g

    I'm a bit puzzled...on Specktra it says that Jewelbright from Ornamentalism ISN'T LE but on the MAC website, it is. Soooo...which is it? Is it LE or not? I'll be peed off if I missed out on it because I thought I could get it later.

    what scents/products do you like using during summer?

    Inspired by martygreene's autumnal goodie thread, I thought I'd start this for everyone, but also because it's summertime in the Southern Hemisphere. So...my Philosophy Hot cocoa 3-in-1 is in hibernation as I prefer it during autumn/winter, but for summer I do still like chocolate scents with...

    makeup item/area you 'neglect'???

    Was just thinking about how I used to not even care for lipliners, but now I see how they can make your lips look they've been 'done' by a pro. So now, I take them a bit more seriously!!! Was like that with eyeliners till MAC fluidlines came along (thank you goddess of beauty!). What types of...

    Handcrafted swatches, anyone?

    Grr, I hate MAC's colour descriptions! I decided to try Vintage Vamp nail polish, and thought Artisan sounded good too. But if you look at the picture on the MAC website accompanying this collection, it's really hard to tell which polish is which. I like the first 3 on the LHS (going...

    can anyone wear any colour?

    I'm starting to think that anyone can wear ANYTHING though this is especially difficult on the lips. BUT: if you have white teeth, then wearing any lip colour shouldn't be a problem. Think NARS Schiap, MAC Blow, other wilder colours like black or brown etc. what do you think? Is that a bit...

    never seen this MAC product ever!

    I don't know if I'm allowed to post this link, I am in no way affiliated with the auction and just had to report to fellow Speckies for enlightenment... http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI....MEWA%3AIT&rd=1 MAC s/he body butter? Sounds lovely, and is apparently limited edition. Shame. Sounds...

    lipstick finishes/textures

    It's a semi-complaint; I wish MAC didn't have so many frost l/s, or had more of the other finishes available. There are so many colours that I'd probably be able to wear but sometimes the frost finish means I have to avoid it because the glitter seems to migrate into every crevice of my lips...

    URLs in posts/signatures

    Hi there, Hopefully this is not a duplicate - I did search and nothing came up. I saw somewhere below that someone was told not to have a link in their post and it got me confused as I have posted a link to my website (not related at all to Specktra/MAC/makeup etc.) in my signature and...

    planned NE haul - help me cut it down!

    I'm torn! Arrgh! At first it was just 2 of the lipglasses (Damzel & PL) but now it's grown into a full-blown potential assault on my wallet. What I'm absolutely certain about: Inventive Eyes quad the aforementioned l/g I had BoaF l/s marked as a definite but it might be too cool for my...

    help me find the perfect lipstick colour!

    Hi all, I know exactly what colour I would like it to be - as close as possible to Dervish lip liner. I would prefer a non-frost texture but if that makes it harder, then recommend frosts anyway. I'd ideally like it to be lustre or amplified cream, anything that is matte or creamy. Please...

    we need reviews, people!

    Come on lovely ladies and gentlemen, I've read/seen the pics/lists of your traincases - so why aren't there more reviews?! Even if we all just do 2 of a product not already listed, we can get the review forum nice and fat. I'll list the 2 products I review here, hopefully others will follow...

    will these lip colours I'm eyeing suit me?

    My skin is roughly NC or NW20, maybe 25 and I'm wondering, will Rayothon and Flash of Flesh wash me out? Although most of my body has olive/yellow/brown undertones, my face has a lot more pink in it. My lips are fairly pigmented, MAC Dervish lipliner is pretty much spot-on my actual lip colour...

    *sob* just missed out on a staple item on eBay

    Aw crap, I bid on Philosophy Pure Grace 3-in-1 which isn't available in Australia, and I missed out by 50c. Would have paid a lot more too except that I wasn't available when bid ended. Looks like I'm going to have to save up for a CP...sigh. Anyone else into bath stuff/B&B that they can't get...
