    Please help! Veet Hair Removing cream has burnt my face...

    I have used this before with no problems (it is the one specified for facial use), but as soon as I put it on I felt a burning sensation so I wiped it off as soon as possible, but I now have a sore, stinging and red upper lip I did it yesterday and smothered it with pure aloe vera gel (Aubrey...

    My new haircut

    Well I finally did it. I hadn't had it cut properly for well over 2 years or so (before the cut, my hair was at bra-level and layered) and although my hair didn't look that ragged (I love taking care of it), it was starting to annoy me, have dry-ish/split ends in places and look "style-less"...

    Recs for a matte bronzer?

    I am looking for a matte bronzer that isn't too dark (I have fairly light skin - NW20ish). I have BB Shimmerbrick and love it, but I would like something matte to contour my cheeks (to brush under my cheekbones when I do the "fish face" ). TIA!

    Mini Eyelash Curlers

    I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, so Mods feel free to move it I've always wondered if these mini eyelash curlers work...you know, the ones that are meant to curl those tricksy lil' lashes at the outer and inner corners of your eye. I use Shu Uemura curlers and they are...

    My first attempt at cat eye (soft and cuddly with MAC Teddy)

    I always seem to mess up the "flick" in one way or another. Previous attempts I have tried it with black kohl or liquid e/l, but I always end up rubbing it off because it looks crappy! I am pretty pleased with the end result today though. I used MAC Teddy e/k for a natural and soft day...

    What should I ask a hairdresser to achieve this cut?

    I'm not sure if I want the bangs... I had some like that before, and they just annoyed me ...but I love everything else about it, the bluntness of the ends and stuff. I wish my printer was good enough to print this out, or maybe I will have to find a pic of her like this in a magazine or...

    How to get hair like this?

    My hair is this colour naturally, and is wavy, but just a bit shorter than hers (it is Catherine Zeta Jones btw). I like to either leave it to air-dry or I straighten it. I have just ordered a Hot Tools 1 1/4 " curling iron, and hoping I can achieve this hairstyle with it I actually love her...

    My first FOTD - Be gentle, lol! (Kinda pic heavy also)

    OK, this is my first FOTD...it's my usual makeup look, although the lipgloss was an added extra for the day I usually stick to browns, plums, and greens. Today was a brown/neutral day. Please excuse my messy hair! It was windy outside (although like 108 ). Annnnyway... Here's what I used...

    Clairol Color Treat Conditioning Treatment?

    A tube of this came with the Natural Instincts hair colour that I got a few weeks ago. I love this stuff!! It makes my hair so soft. I am wondering if anyone knows if I can buy this on its own, or do I have to keep buying the hair-dye also?

    Lip Exfoliator?

    I wasn't sure where to post this, so I hope it's in the right place! My lips aren't insanely dry or chapped (although they were awful when I was a teenager - always bleeding, sore, and chapped). Now though, I just get the occasional peeling and it makes my lipgloss look weird and uneven. I...

    How does this look for my 5th Wedding Anniversary dinner?

    I was just messing around with my MAC stuff (haven't gotten really made up in a LONG while) the other day and came up with this look. I didn't apply any concealer/foundation/powder or anything, just MAC Paint, e/s, e/l and Cover Girl Volume Exact mascara. Thought it would be nice for our dinner...

    Fake MAC 182 Brushes on eBay?

    I had been reading reviews on the MAC 182 brush and thought to myself, "I just HAVE to get that!!" lol...I want it to apply mineral powder/foundation or powder. My first stop was MAC's website and I saw it was $45 but heard that it is an excellent brush and well worth the money. Ever one for a...
