    MAC brush set from 2004

    I have a box leftover from an older SE brush set I bought in 2004 (Adorn, I think), but I can't find any info on it anymore. And I'm at a loss at how to describe it for a sale/swap list. Help? (clickable thumbnails)

    just one item, but ...

    ... oh so pretty. I've been trying to get So Ceylon for a while now, but couldn't bring myself to pay the current going rate for it. But then a wonderful MUAer agreed to swap a BNIB So Ceylon for my BNIB Petticoat!

    So Ceylon

    Can someone with a So Ceylon MSF box tell me what the sticker says (the one that identifies it as So Ceylon)? I received one with a number in addition to the name, but none of my other MSFs have numbers on the sticker on the box ... although the oldest one I have is only from Gold Play. I'm...

    Post Office and mis-delivered packages

    I bought of a reliable user who shipped my items with DC. I believe my PO mis-sorted the package upon arrival in Berkeley, and so another carrier (from my usually lady) tried to deliver at the end of her shift a week from last Monday. I wasn't home, but they claimed to have left a notice...

    What a goof ... it opens!

    So I've been using Studio Fix powder for a month and a half now. I've noticed the compact is thicker than the beauty powders I have. I always attributed this to the fact that there's more product in SF (not that much more, but still. more). Anyway, I was just reading this thread and wanted to...

    suggestions to even me out?

    Since it's getting to be summer, my face is exposed to a bit of sun these days. I usually wear moisturizer with SPF 15, but that doesn't completely prevent tanning (is there anything that will prevent tanning to any degree besides camping out in the shade all day?). As a result, my face is...

    Aquamelon TLC substitute?

    Does anyone know anything from the permanent line that looks like or is similar to the Aquamelon TLC?

    moisturizer with SPF

    Can someone recommend me a good moisturizer with SPF? My face is generally slightly oily and prone to the occasional break-out on and off, especially around my chin, jawline, and under the cheekbone (the part that goes in when you make that fish-sucky face, if you know what I'm taking about!)...

    Enriched Bronze vs Refined Enriched Bronze

    I posted this in one of the LBH threads, but didn't get an answer. Can anyone tell me the difference between Enriched Bronze from Sunshrine versus Refined Enriched Bronze from Hooked? They're described as: Enriched Bronze = Gold with olve undertones Refined Enriched Bronze = Deeper, warmer bronze

    gold dusk pigment vs. good as gold pearlizer

    What's the difference? It seems like they'd be almost identical.

    pans for pressing pigments

    Where's a good place to find/buy these? How much would they run me?

    Napa, CA CCO (Napa Premium Outlets)

    Can anyone tell me what this one's like (selection-wise)? I've been to the one in Gilroy, CA ... and it seemed pretty slim pickings. But perhaps I just went there at a bad time. Just wanted to see how this one compares (or even how it stands alone).

    Foundation and Cover-Up

    I went to 2 different MAC counters to find a good foundation/powder/face combo. I almost never wear make-up (just wash my face and go), but now that I'm getting out of school and have to start going to job interviews, I want something that'll even things out and polish up my face a bit so it's...

    Hunger Red vs. Laid Back (blushcremes)

    I've been going over the shade descriptions and trying to picture them in my head ... but for those who have tried both: what did you think the difference was, if any? Which one did you like better?
