I get so uncomfortable when people get really mean... we all have our different styles and preferences. I wonder if we'd be so callous if we knew that person was reading those posts. IDK... it's human nature to gossip!Wow! What can't you rock!?!
stop that!! I am finding I hate nudes on myself,,, lol
Thank you! that is very sweet!

Nobody here is being mean. I agree--it's constructive criticism. Muse's blog annoys me (and apparently some others too) so I choose not to read it. I use to give her the benefit of the doubt with the headband thing, but then she posted one day that she wears those headbands because she is too lazy to wash her hair. ???!!! My opinon is if you have a commercial blog, which I believe Musings of a Muse is, you should put your best face forward. Your face is being broadcasted to the entire world, so why choose to represent yourself and your brand in such a way, and then make a lame excuse for it?
I actually hope she is reading this! She really does have a lot of potential, and I hope that one day she would put more effort into her appearance on the internet.
People go innnnnnn on T over and over here, but at least she tries!

If anyone considers this a mean girls club, I feel they have had a very sheltered life. Mean to me is a whole other realm of existence than anything I have ever seen here. Maybe it is because I lived through the Socratic Method in classes daily for years. That can give a whole new meaning to mean but it is for the betterment of the individual through criticism.I applaud you for spekaing the truth.It can be very much a mean girls club here.

I wasnt going to say anything but a lot of comments. I love bloggers esp Karen and T for the quality of posts and high pic quality. Though I often check musingsofamuse, I dont regularly not bec of her headband or teeth or lips or whatever other " constructive criticism" you meant. Its just bec the lighting is diff and doesnt give an accurate shade. As long as how she looks or dresses up doesnt affect the product she is reviewing, I dont understand how it is any of our concern. Just because she posts pics on the net, doesnt make her have to loose her headband or whever style she has been following from the beginning. There is nothing constructive about all this. The only thing we can hope is ask for a diff lighting and that may count as constructive criticism. Everyone has their individual styles whether we like it or not and speaking candidly about that and hoping it will be taken as postive criticism is just wishful thinking.
Although we all lip swatches and love to see how it looks in person those arent going to be accurate either anymore than the hand swatces. A lot depends on the lip pigmentation and the basic undertone, so the same lipstick can look a lot diff on two.
Sometimes MAC does have quality issues. Why can we not just assume that when a blooger has problem with a product but we could get good perfromance out of it, its just bec of a fauly batch than assuming the worst out of them.
Blogging though looks really cool, is actually a lot of work esp for serious bloggers and I believe T and Karen are among them.
I know I am going to get a lot of constructive criticism for this, but I had to say this.

Ok. Cool. New Specktra rule. Never ever EVER criticize any blogger ever. Got it, and I will go with it to appease the masses here but I do feel that the "everyone is a winner and gets a trophy" mentality is what is wrong with society these days.

I am so tempted to get Pure Heroine, but I am down to just one empty in my B2M bin (I gave my last 3 B2M freebies away) so I may have to just bite the bullet and buy it, because I love the color! Not so vampy, but it seems versatile and flattering - and it looks great on all of you! It seems like it's not going to sell out right away, sort of like the amazing Hayley Williams stuff last year - wish I got backups because they are hella expensive now!

I am rocking a headband today to cover my lace front's front part of my wig, lol. Been told I look like Wonder Woman! I practically never ever wear any hair accessories. Anywayz, loving everyone rocking their purple goodness. You are all looking really pretty. I am so tempted by PH to give up my beloved glosses, ha ha, nah!

EVERY thread inevitably goes down the path of criticism of a blogger. And it'll continue to happen. Over and over and over. It's the Circle of (Specktra) life!
Call me a snob or mean or whatever, but I have high expectations for make up blogs. Hair, decent make up skills, lighting in pics, etc. should all be on point! If it isn't, I keep on moving.
But that's just me.

The finish and the fact that this one is much, much darker....this lipstick it's supposed to be a combination of Heroine and Cyber.

I'm trying to tell myself not to get this. But goddamn! It's so pretty on EVERYONE!
I feel like I'm maxxed out with purples right now. I've hardly touched my PC lippies. I've worn Strong Woman a handful of times (Is it really a dupe? It sure looks like one in Maneater's swatches). Heroine gets worn once every month or so.... Do I need this? I also have Dominate, Cyber, and more lippies along that vein...
