    Additional questions about Photoshop

    Hello lovelies! I'm only just beginning to discover Photoshop and have read all the other threads about it, but I still feel stupid. There are some more questions I'd like to ask, as I have pics I'd like to edit. Unfortunately, I had no makeup on because my dad, who took the pics before the...

    Hello lovelies! The day of our annual Christmas Party at work draws nearer, and this year we have the most gorgeous theme: the Baroque/Rokoko as a tribute to Mozart ... We are all provided with baroque costumes (not sure of the colours yet), and I'll be doing the make-up of two of my...

    Technique for droopy eye lids?

    Hello lovelies! A good friend of mine just asked me to do her make-up once because she really likes how I do mine, but I'm a bit insecure now. She's got droopy eye lids (you can really hardly see any lid space, only the inner third) and I'm not sure how to make the best with that - and I...

    Jumping on the Lush-train ... recommendations?

    Hi lovelies! After studying the Lush Sticky thread thoroughly and reading all the positive comments there I would really like to try some Lush products as well, and hoped all the experts out there could help me choose! My problem is: I have never tried Lush at all, I don't know what I *need*...

    No Sweetie Cake for Austria ...

    I've been to MAC (Steffl) today and took the opportunity to ask an MA about Sweetie Cake. She said as far as she knew it would not be available in Austria, and she was kind enough to show me her update book to check and there were no swatches - so no Sweetie Cake as far as she goes :-( How sad...

    Any regular lipstick similar to Culturebloom l/s?

    I was wondering whether anyone knows a lipstick from the permanent collection that looks similar to Culturebloom? I got Culturebloom and fell in love right away, and now I would like to get another lipstick (or maybe two, *lol*) that look similar - though they need not be exactly alike. Just a...

    Need Recs for some Cremestick liners!

    Hello lovelies! Until now I've almost never worn lipliner under lipstick or lipgloss, but with so many great Cremestick liners out there I was debating on whether or not I should be getting some ... I'd like a neutral pinkish/rose one and a neutral apricot one to start with (I'm very pale...

    For quite some time now I've noticed larger pores on my forehead and some on my nose, and now I'm searching for a decent pore minimizer. I really like Biotherm and use their skincare products a lot, so I was wondering whether anyone has any experience with Biopur pore minimizer, and if so, what...

    Which of these pigments should I pick?

    I just decided to treat myself with two new pigments until Culturebloom launches here and will leave me broke *lol*. There are four on my list and I decided to pick only two for this time, but which should I choose? There are Old Gold, Blue Brown, Golden Olive and Violet ... I have samples of...

    What do you pair with Old Gold pigment?

    I just got a sample of Old Gold pigment and already adore it! It's such a unique colour ... But now I'm lacking ideas what to wear it with - today I paired it with Sprout and it looks really nice, but I need more alternatives *lol*. How do you combine it? Any lovely combos? TIA!!

    Luv-4-Ever vs. Preensheen Pro Longwear Lustre

    I already have Luv-4-Ever and really like it a lot - the texture and appearance of the lustre longwears is so much better than the original formula. I can remeber that I swatched almost all of the new ones and took Luv-4-Ever because I thought it would be most suitable for my freckled pale...

    How much do you like these browns?

    I'm thinking of getting Cork, Texture, Wedge, Soft Brown and Charcoal Brown ... So far, I've mainly worn ones with frost finish or the veluxe pearls since I just love a little bit of shimmer, but in the future I'll have to do some representational jobs for work (law business) and need...

    Watermelon TLC - any similar l/g or l/s?

    Hello everyone! The post below about Summerfete TLC reminded me that I wanted to ask this question since before my holidays ... Do you know any lipstick or lipgloss that looks like Watermelon? I just love its rosy-brown shimmery colour which is just like "my lips but better" on me, but I don't...

    Do you know of any Rayothon look-a-likes?

    I'm so in love with my Rayothon lipglass (a huge *thank you* again to Groupie who got the first for me) that I already got a backup ... and just in case that I run out of it I was wondering whether you can think of any look-a-likes from the permanent collection? All those I can think of are...

    What brushes do you Recommend?

    Hello everyone, I once more need you invaluable advice! I've already got a nice little brush collection, but now I'm itching to get some more (as is always the case with MAC items ...). So here's what I already have: 211 - quite nice for the rare lining I do so I don't think I'll get another...

    Your experience with Hyper Real?

    When I was at the counter last time I saw an MA put it on a girl and she looked really lovely, very glowing ... Now I consider getting one for myself, though I already had one from the old formulation years ago, which I tossed since I didn't have the correct colour (and the coverage was just...

    Which regular e/s are similar to Metamorph and Meadowland?

    I really love Metamorph and Meadowland and use both quite often right now ... I was wondering whether there are any turquoises and light greens similar to these two in the regular line? When I think of hitting the pan one day it almost makes me sad ;-) I already have Brill and Aquadisiac, but...
