I love Specktra because...
The mods are brilliant... very easy going and lovely. You can tell that they really care about the members. The do a great job in the threads to make sure nobody is ganged up on or picked on. I think if it wasn't for them... this place would be a complete different forum and wouldn't be as good as it is.
I love the FOTDs... my makeup has improved so much from looking at everybody's FOTDs.
I love the collection and swatches thread. It really helps me to plan on what I am going to buy.
I am a very shy person but everybody here is so friendly and welcoming. I just loving coming on here and I feel like I am part of the community.
Thanks Janice and the mods for all of your hard work for making Specktra one of the best sites for makeup and just about everything else.

I was a mac lover for 6 years, and i only knew one thing, how to apply one eyelid color and one highlight color. After joining specktra in janurary of 08 and looking through the tutorials and fotd's i've learned so much about makeup application, blending, and *gasp* using 3 or more eyeshadows on my eyes! I've never gotten so many compliments on my makeup before.
You cant get any better than the color collection and swatch forum. I love knowing what collections are coming out months in advanced and hearing all of the ladies responses and MUST have products and which colors or texture to stay clear of.
The chatter section is a pretty fun place to spend free time and listen/help others with their problems as well.

1. I love knowing about everything coming out in advance!
2. Uh, swatches?? This makes it SO much easier to buy stuff that is unique and that I really love.
And the absolute TOP reason that I love Specktra?
It's somewhere where people like ME can get together. People who love makeup, a haven where I can get away from my friends saying, "you could have bought a car by now instead of all this MAC, what are you, stupid?" Everyone here shares my passion, and I'm not judged for my love of cosmetics.

I'm addicted to Specktra! And here's why.
Some of the many reasons I love and am addicted to Specktra:
1. Newbies are welcomed with open arms and enthusiasm. I certainly was.
2. Everyone from the most experienced artist to those that are totally new to makeup share ideas and inspire each other. We all have something to learn from each other. Now THAT is beautiful.
3. People are genuinely NICE here. What a concept! Not to mention the wonderful diversity.
4. The admins & mods are no-nonsense and run a tight, clean ship. And do an amazing job.
What are your reasons?

FOTD's....serve so many purposes. open your mind to different types of make up AND different types of beauty in general.
Knowledge of MAC....i wouldn't know half the things i do if i never signed up.
Members....i've rarely (if ever) come across rude or obnoxious people, so it's a refreshing website to come to!

4. Loads of improvements to the site and fun things to read such as Specktra secrets that weren't here when I first registered years ago. and I'll add more as I think of them. So come on, let's share the love for this place. |
