    Hair help - half Indian half European skin tone

    I'm being cranky about my hair color again. I currently have dark brown with blonde underneath. Pic of my current hair is here. (LOL I went to the Indiana Jones premiere, excuse the hat.) I was considering either a lighter brown or blonde. I'd love to try blonde but I am afraid that my skin...

    Nars products for an NC35?

    I want to try more Nars stuff... I have Sandpiper gloss and I love it. Anyone have any recs for an NC 35? Would Orgasm be too light? I went to my local Nars counter but she kept recommending brown shades no matter what I said...I prefer a more fresh look. Brown lips arent a good look on me...

    Nars Body Glow Dupe?

    I got a free Nars Body Glow and unfortunately (for my wallet) I really like it. It is quite expensive...are there any good dupes out there? I'd rather buy more paint pots and pigment just now if I can save on this...

    Sally Hansen Natural Beauty Inspired by Carmindy

    I'm a big fan of Carmindy from TLC's What Not to Wear. I just got her newsletter that says she just released a makeup line with Sally Hansen. Has anyone seen it/tried it yet? Its supposed to be at CVS. What does "inspired by" mean anyway? I heard it was her line but that just sounds like they...

    Exchanging without a receipt?

    This is really stupid because I usually save all of my receipts and I would never normally do something like this, but I can't find this one. I have the prep + prime eye stuff and all I want to to is exchange it and get a paint or something because the prep +prime doesn't seem to do much for me...

    Any Indian/South Asian ladies out there?

    I am half Indian..NC35 foundation. I was surprised at how little info I could find online about Indian beauty sites. I think it is difficult because Indian skin has that yellow undertone so often I can't find examples in American magazines that would suit my skin tone. (Or maybe I just don't...

    Best blush color for an nc35?

    Unfortunately I think I have had some bad luck with MUA's. I was sold Benefit Dallas at the Benefit counter and it is hard to get it to show up so I was going to just replace it with a MAC blush...but which one? After the Dallas incident a MAC MUA recommended this light reddish one...it is OK...

    Brushes without breaking the bank?

    Can someone recommend a good set of brushes that aren't super expensive? I dont know what half the brushes are used for to pick out individual brushes and it seems a waste to spend 100 per brush if I'm just playing around here and there...
