We all need that T-shirt! But I think your picture on the front should be of you doing the splits for sure!

HG - I've not heard of byTerry

"blank blue lines... for the blank look I get when I see 95 concealer.. lmao" -

Ya know, I just MAY try that concealer

but I'm going to sleep on the idea first.

OHMY did I ever enjoy Amy's pics of Window shopping in Paris

our son & his wife took those pics for me too & Louis Vuitton when they were there

& Wow, this thread really took off!
I really enjoyed reading about Elegant's splits in the church, Honey & LemonGirl's unexpected meeting with her childhood sweetheart and Bonitinha's admirer/construction worker with a penchant for fashion.
It really cheered me up (I'm having a bad case of Tuesday blues).

I was actually reading an article on compulsive buying today. I think I have it in a mild form, and it is usually makeup related, lol So I'd say I would fall into the category nr. 2 - the addicted

There have been some great stories on here today! LOL I hope you are feeling better!
I know I have some form of compulsive buying -- clothes, makeup . . . eeks And I am trying to turn my sisters into makeup addicts -- my hard work is totally paying off. My older sister is asking for makeup for her birthday and even wants nice makeup brushes (this would have been completely foreign to her a few years ago)

I need to see it too now

I should do a long shot video of me doing the split & cartwheel...oh my....maybe not...but it would be really funny

 

[Bonitinha]

P.S. What ever happened to Eugenia??

 

[User38]

^ I have pics like that too.. the Architecture is truly amazing. Jeff used to tell me that the French had every right to be conceited -- look at Paris. But in battle, they are a true true disaster.. lol.

ByTerry is a french brand.. but it is very HE and pricey... I will be reviewing some of their products for possible revisions.. will advise. If you want to see the line -- but online info is limited imo, it is: www.byterry.com .. enjoy!

I need a plummy pink lipstick.. gonna go mix one up.. lol

P.S. What ever happened to Eugenia??

I wondered that too sooo sweet & SOOOO into Chanel. I hope that she is ok

and WTH is Meg?

 

[User38]

You're right Bonitnha.. RE is trash, stocks got trashed and while Japan is still cooking, they will stay that way.. buy Water stocks.. not kidding.. I am.

or just stay Addicted and out of control. lol.

haven't heard from her in a long long time.. I wonder too and hope she is well.

 

[User38]

MEggy is probably off on another romantic trip.. lol.

Plummy Pinks are truly one of my fave colors. I have a couple of MAC ones that are pretty...names escape me right now

I'm not sure if I should look at any more links

tonight

I love it when you educate me on all things that you know!

 

[Honey&LemonGirl]

Ooh, can't wait to hear your thoughts on the ByTerry goods, HG! My eyes have been wandering from HE makeup like Chanel to way too HE makeup like ByTerry and Le Metier de Beaute and Chantecaille lately. Yikes!

KarlaSugar had swatches of these Le Metier de Beaute blushes and she showed a swatch of an eyeshadow called "Tuscan Sunset" that the LMdB SA told her worked great as a blush, and it's SO beautiful: http://karlasugar.net/2011/02/le-metier-de-beaute-blush/ I am super lemming it!!! Might drop by Nordstrom tomorrow to look at it in person.



Thank you for all the red-orange lippie recs, I'll check them out this week.

Dear ratonas,

Elegant - You have discovered another wonder of nature to me! That Givenchy mono eyeshadow is cute! I'll be checking aout soon. Thank you!

This post grows so fast!!!! I went to bed when page 3 was being born and I have had to do some serious reading in the morning

Well I am heading to do some sports before going to work, I guess that when I am sitting in the office, we will have moved to page 6 or so, lol.
Enjoy your day!

This thread is the most fun ever!

oh man, the Givenchy ls was called Orange MAt.. lolol.. as if

and I just thought of one by MAC -- So Chaud.. a similar looking orange with matte finish.. gorgeous

So Chaud was my first foray into orange lips. I saw my MA wearing it and it looked lovely. I told her it was a shame I couldn't wear deep orange lipsticks and she just looked at me and said "Why not?" I'm pretty easy to convince, as you can see. I'm still trying to hunt down that wonderfully juicy looking Givenchy lippie from Spring...

Btw, any of you ever tried the Tom Ford lipstick? I wonder if they worth the $50 price tag...
