^I do that all of the time, too, lol. Well, I don't drool per say, but I love considering what I'm going to pack.
Also, I. am, jealous. of. you. I want the new urban decay 2 palette, but I haven't gotten it yet. I went to Sephora last week, so I can't spend anymore money at the moment. You'll have to say what you think of the palette! 
Haha okay I don't drool but I was thinking about it at work today when I got bored. Lol.
It's just so fun for me. I'm glad like it too... I feel less creepy. 
"Went to Sephora" says it all... dropping some $$$ eh? Hahah. I actually get 20% off so I
figured I would do it. I never got the first one, for some reason at the time nudes weren't appealing
to me but I have progressed mentally now! I will definitely do swatches and a review when
I get it. It's a pre-sale at the Urban Decay counter at work so I have to wait to pick it up. Grrrr
not clown like, beautiful!
I have tried quoting an d responding to your posts like 3 times, and every time I try and insert a picture the board freezes. grrr. stupid upgrade. Anyhooter, I used the highlighter in a C shape, cheekbone to occipital, lightly, but I look like a freshly polished apple by the end of the day.
nail polish....eh. I never use top or base, too much work 
I suck with nails, I always screw 'em up. I'm too impatient.

TheBalm ES palette:
Aww thank you!!
Hahah anyhooter. You come up with some awesome words. That's interesting, do you have more on the oily skin side? That could be why. Looking like a freshly plished apple can be appealing. 
Hahah you cannnnnot do nails without base and top coat! It's not worth the effort, they almost always start chipping or smearing. But I used to be really impatient with it too. That's why I choose my manicuring times wisely- it's usually in front of the TV after doing dishes, and before bed. That palette looks like fun!!!
Thoughts? Good/bad? Clown-like?
as always. I bet you'd even make a beautiful clown. Go on, try it, I dare you!
OH PAUL, you overestimate me!!!
Thoughts? Good/bad? Clown-like?
It's a cell phone picture that's why it looks a little weird, I didn't try and blur it or do weird effects lol.
It doesn't look weird to me! I really like that look, actually. What eyeshadows did you use?
Thank you!! I used the Smashbox Palette for blue eyes

what red is that? it's so pretty. did you use a lip primer? very marilyn monroe-esque, californiaestie. gorjous.
It's my favorite red, Smashbox Photo Finish lipstick in Legendary. It must have some blue tones in it (to match my skin tone), people always compliment me when I'm wearing it. And thank you!!! 
So sweet. And no I haven't tried any lip primers yet actually. Know of anyone good ones?

Like it?
yes.. that red is perfect on you! smashbox..i've heard some good things bout them lately. they have this eyeshadow palette that i've been lemming. i think it's sold exclusively on qvc. by the time i decide to buy it they'll prob stop selling it. lol i asked about the lip primer bc i was wondering how long the wear is. do you have to constantly reapply the lipstick? n no i don't know of any good ones :/ my lips are sensitive, and i have to constantly reapply lip balm to get those suckers to behave.

Thank you! It's my favorite red... I don't even really buy red lipstick anymore because I like that one. Hahaha awww, how much is it? And what kind of colors? Smashbox shadow palettes have totally worked for me so far. My favorite was the Smashbox Eyelights palette in neutrals but I can't find it anymore and I can't find the one I got!!!! Booo. Hmm, the wear on the lipstick is pretty good imo. I don't reapply a whole lot- but it's moisturizing so I do like to reapply because it feels nice. If you aren't eating it lasts a pretty long time. Ooh, sensitive lips can be tricky. What lip balm do you use?
Btw all ladies and gents,
please check out my new blog and give me some feedback. I know little things contribute to whether we like to read certain blogs or not. Design, content, ease of use, I want to hear about it. 
And feel free to ask for reviews on certain products (may or may not have them), be a guest blogger, and leave comments! It's the internet age... lol.
I AM SO GETTING THE NEW "COUTURE COLOR" FROM SEPHORA.
In auburn I think. Sounds like what I want. I am far too scared to try the blondes
even though I want to see what it would look like. Check out the reviews! I can't
wait for it to come into stock at my Sephora. Anyone have tips for coloring at home?
Never done it before.
RUINED MY HAIR.
its the smashbox photo op palette. its xpensive, but i've heard that the shadows are nicely pigmented, and it seems like it has pretty wearable colors. it's almost 100 dollars, and it mostly has neutrals along with some louder colors mixed in. im tempted to just get it, but another makeup palette is the last thing i need, so i'll prob just pretend i bought it, and get a cheaper palette instead. lol. aww noooo! u can't find a fave palette that's completely annoying. i hope it shows up. maybe you lent it someone n they forgot to give it bck? i love the name of that lipstick! n right now i use a few diff lip balms. i like rose salve, fresh sugar lippie, and the revlon lip butters. fresh sugar is my faaaave tho. soo moisturizing, n u don't have to reapply every hour to keep your lips comfy.

I haven't seen that palette yet! I just looked on the website and couldn't find it. Phooey! It sounds cool! Lol... I know. I am the queen of buying things that I won't use for awhile... I actually bought a perfume the other day (heavily discounted) and then I smelt it, hate it, and can't return it. So I have banned myself from shopping for awhile in punishment. Lol, get an UD palette! I just started using them and love it. I like the anniversary palette if you want a mix of brights and neutrals. So it's the eye lights palette (Smashbox) in "Beam". If you see it not sold out by some chance tell me! 😀 I hope it's somewhere in my semi-Hoarders room. Haha I love the name too, it's always fun when people ask. I looove the Fresh lip chappies too! I have it in rose, brown sugar, and original. They are really nice, and I like the weight of the packaging. *nerd alert*
Guess I am not allowed to post my blog
Why not? Did you stand to gain money from it? Advertise product? No. Wtf?
???? This is what I was wondering. And then it says we aren't allowed to link to other websites but I could swear people do it right??

All the time. It's supposed to be a one time only thing, to explain a product or post or whatever, but it's often allowed for more than that. Your blog was an informative, one time link... I'd PM the mod who took it down and ask why.
This is what I was wondering. And then it says we aren't allowed to link to other websites but I could swear people do it right??
The policy about posting links seems a bit strange to me to be honest. Say for example, if someone posts a link and says, "Go here to buy my products", then obviously they're selling something. But there are other times when that isn't the case and I do wonder what the harm would be for it to be left alone. Even so, seems like they're not allowed. I guess the safest option is to not post any kind of links whatsoever, but then that is not at all ideal if people are looking to interact and share things with each other.
I saw the link and left it alone on the basis that it related to the thread and, unless I missed something, would essentially be the same as replying in a post with a list of products. After all, seems logical that if you post a picture of a look you've created, people are going to ask what you used, which seems to be the entire point of this thread anyway. Besides, I'm too soft and I would have felt like a big meanie to remove it after you had put the work in.
How do you hit the nail on the head Paul?
Lol. I agree though. It's a personal blog consisting of demonstration and product reviews, much like the reviews on this site! I don't know. I'm sure whoever did it won't say anything now. Well thanks for not taking it down in your mind! Haha. I just wanted to share it with everyone on here/on this thread because it's an extension of it.
It's a knack I have, although I could have kept it simple and just said, "Wasn't me".
I never gave the whole links/advertising thing much thought before I became a mod because I didn't need to pay attention. I don't know whether the rules changed at some point or if it became necessary to keep things in check more, but I'm sure I used to see blogs and stuff around the place. After all, I found The Love Vitamin via the Org back when I joined and I remember going to Tangerine's profile a few times for the link, so evidently the rules weren't as enforced then as they perhaps are now.
lol yeah i think it is cool..lol..yeah i'm trying to save up for things, so i'm only buying cheap makeup for a few months. perfume is weird! i mean, sometimes it smells exactly how you sampled it no matter what, and then other times it smells completely diff by the end of the day. i would love to figure out how to make my own scent n wear it all the time. i mean, people make their own clothes, so perfume shouldn't be too complicated, right? right now i'm obsessed with paris amour from b&bw. LOL u have a semi-hoarders room? haha. that's hilarious. yeah, i need to learn how to organize my bathroom and all the girly shit that's in there. and yes, fresh lip balms are the best! which one is your fave?? that lippie should get a beauty award or something.
quick question..does anyone use a duo fiber brush frequently? how do you use it? i just bought one and i haven't used it because i can't figure it out.
@CaliforniaEstie thanks again for the Hourglass Primer rec! I just purchased it! Cannot wait to try it out!
Question? Do or can you use this as a eyelid primer? Eyelid primer rec would be great...! I've been dealing with some wicked oily lids. No fun. But if this works well as one--then that would be brilliant!
Again, thanks for the input! Keep the tips comin'!
