>>I love their their eyeshadows..they last and the colours are very pretty. And you're not reapplying throughout the day, too. |
I just bought the Neutrogena microdermabrasion thing that Bleu was talking about.
They were out of the refill heads, which are 24 for $11.99 (you use it 2-3 times a week). I'm trying to wean myself off the expensive Clinique exfoliating scrub I've been using since forever. Or maybe I can alternate them. Also, I looked for the Neutrogena scrub that people add sugar or salt to as an exfoliant but they didn't have it. I can't wait to use the microdermabrasion thing! |

Good idea, Talon! |
Two things I do: I keep a little plastic bottle with a flip top full of baking soda in the shower and add a couple of shakes of that to pretty much any facial wash I use. I think I usually grab something from Neutrogena. It's a super inexpensive way to exfoliate.
I also use hydrogen peroxide as a toner. I learned that trick from a friend who's been in the facial business for years. After I wash my face, I just use a cotton round and go for it. The combined cost of a box of baking soda and a bottle of peroxide is maybe $3. |

One of my favorite makeup lines I found when trying to break a very long MAC addiction is NYX. My drag queen girlfriends swear by it and I have had great results so far!
this is one of my favorite palettes - The Smoky Eye! http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_fcy5k6uBUe...0/PA140031.JPG |
This is the purple one and it is amazing-
Oh, and did I mention these are only $9-$10?! http://www.makeupandbeautyblog.com/w...otos-small.jpg |
Well, I can honestly say don't use the Hardcandy Lash Primer. It flakes and irritated my eyes. I felt like stuff was in them all day, e the fibers just got into my eyes. I finally removed all my eye makeup and reapplied without it. I bought a pricier primer at Sephora, it was expensive, 22 dollars for it, but I loved it. (can't remember the name)No irritation. I think when it comes to something like that, it's probably better to go with the pricier ones.
I recently read a book called "looking younger'' . It went into great detail on how makeup artists get their models lashes so thick, without the primer. She said that you pull out the wand, wipe off excess on the rim and then dab on a soft cloth, not to worry there is plenty left on the wand. Place it at the roots of your eyelashes and wiggle it back and forth as you stroke out. Let that thin coat dry for two to three mins. It is imperative for it to dry completely and that you dab off the wand to get a thin coat, or the next layer will clump terribly. Then repeat for a total of three coats. I have not tried this yet either, but I am going to and see if it works like she says...... |

I forgot something I was in the habit of doing previously, and should do again...
When you get build up on your hair from products and shampoo, you can wash your hair with lye soap and it strips it of all the crap and leaves your hair SUPER soft and silky....I was doing it once a month or so.. I discovered it because my ex had very bad psoriasis and lye soap was the only thing that helped it. She would use it on her scalp too and I noticed that her hair looked SO nice and shiny! It's not especially cheap...or even easy to find. (we got it at Cracker Barrel, 5 or 6 dollars a bar) but if you get a soap bar keeper, it will last for however often you use it.... |
What about BB creams? Is it better than tinted moisturizer? What ones have people tried? I have a hard time knowing which color to get in the drugstore. I usually go to the department store.

>>I really like this idea...Do you find that the powdered milk works better than using regular whole milk added to your bath? *Forgive me if you've already answered this, it may have gotten erased in the recent outage* |

Oh man, NYX *is* the shit. I have both of those palettes..and I use them both, all the time. They're eyeshadows are really awesome...*especially* if you're a MAC addict. Because the quality and intensity of the pigments, are very similar(to MAC), at a much better price. |

And you know, they've actually done studies, that show consumers do not get the same fufillment when they buy online, as they do when they physically are shopping in a store....So, I totally get that. |
