I think we all have those moments, the other day after spending "forever" applying the perfect foundation, I checked my makeup in the car mirror on my way to work. My face looked pink and my neck looked ivory. I guess it's time to take out my winter foundation.

(It looked ok in the house, I guess I need better lighting)

I'll probably be spending the next few weeks worrrying about my foundation matching. :p

Anyone has any good rec for a good mirror???


hmm.. i heard conair offers the best mirror out there... leesha (xsparkage) is using that one --> see her makeup collection vid,, and it has 4 settings (office, day, home and evening)

but i can't find anything like that here in aussie... the only thing i can find is the one that has 3 settings (high-medium-low).. not sure if it's the one i'm after...

I notice a huge difference between putting on makeup indoors with dim lighting and putting on makeup in the sunlight. But maybe these are minor inperfections that we can only see, in another persons eyes they probably couldnt tell the difference, i agree with tish.. sometimes we are our worse critic.

My b/f did the same thing yesterday. I was super upset because my Shakespearean lit class was making fun of my MAC.. my teacher goes "you must be pretty shallow to spend that much money on something like makeup"... I was like "you know makeup isnt just MAKEUP to a lot of people- its a form of artistic expression." And she laughed at me and continued on making fun of me.

Matt was peeved... he was so cute he was like "Well everyone I know thinks your makeup looks AWESOME.. they are just jealous.. that makes me so bad... thats ridiculous!" He was going to come beat some ass haha

ANYWAYS back on topic.

Are you using a primer hun?? I noticed that before I used bare study p/p my shadows tended to "run" or "blotch up" too.

Even my eye makeup "blotches up" if I dont cake on a good lotion before hand to prime it.. and then set it with some loose powder.


Geez people are so mean! Definitely jealous!

....So Big Huggs!! But now that you know better you will do better!! But I am sure it wasn't that bad! My husband told me I looked like Barney...But when I told him he was right and all the ladies hated it to...He got mad...I guess he can say I looked F*d up but he dares anyone else tell the truth as well...Gotta love him!

You should talk to him about how unprofessional it is to be talking to you that way. He had no right to say that to you! I would seriously confront him about that.
