    I seriously had to take a bajillion pictures to get these to look right! The flash on my camera was being absolutely horrible.. and then I realized that laying on the bathroom floor somehow took away the bright white glare. SO from now on, all my FOTDs will be taken from the point of view of...

    ~*Spring look gone Wrong! oooops *~

    This was supposed to look all fresh and natural and spring-time cheerful but I was a little heavy handed with my darker purple shadow... and then I couldn't resist adding in the black eyeliner... and well... sultry eyes won over springtime. Maybe next time. Face: Physician's...

    Feedback on Makeup Sales/Trades

    Is there a way to give feedback (positive or negative...) about someone selling/trading makeup in the for sale/swap section of the board? I know the forum FAQs say staff doesn't get involved with disputes or anything, but... just thought I'd check. If not, is it OK to post a feedback message...

    Six FOTDs in One!! *pic heavy*

    Alright, so I've been accumulating quite a number of FOTDs lately. I didn't think most of them were anything special so I wasn't going to post them, but now that I have a few I thought I'd group 'em together in one thread. Some are older, some are more recent (you can tell by the shape of my...

    Deep set eyes really SUCK.

    Any advice for us ladies with really deep set eyes? Mine are so deep that it makes absolutely no difference what colour shadow I wear or how I seem to apply it. The only visible parts when my eyes are open is a tiny area above my upper lashes and a tiny area below my brow. It is so frustrating...

    Since I've heard (and seen!) such fab things about the Nars laguna bronzer I've really really wanted to get it. I don't live near anywhere that sells Nars products and don't really want to shell out the money without even seeing or testing it in person, so... is there anything that's comparable...

    FINALLY found *that* pair of jeans!

    I've been searching forever for a nice pair of jeans in a dark wash that I can wear out at night. NO luck until today. I find it so hard to find any kind of pants that fit because I'm only 5'2 and pretty curvy. If something fits my butt and hips it doesn't fit my waist, every single pair of...

    * My First FOTD! * :)

    This is my everyday makeup routine... usually takes about 20 minutes (I'm picky with my concealer and blending it into spots with a tiny brush... or else it'd probably be much faster!) I've come to realize that my eyes aren't good for showing eyeshadow at all, they're too deep set oh well...

    CoverGirl Products

    Just thought I'd start a thread for people to discuss their CoverGirl products! I currently use the CG TruBlend whipped foundation (loooove it mixed with some moisturizer, goes on light and easy) and the Fresh Complexion concealer - both in classic ivory. But my two favourite CG products...
