Lipstick is my pain in the ass. Everytime I find one I like, it eventually gets discontinued. I've ended up tending towards ones that are just only teeny bit darker (and more even, duh) than my natural color, but again...laziness. What's weird to me is the brownish brick color I wore for years...looks wrong now. Don't know if my judgement or what has changed. Hell, I used to wear revlon's...um...black cherry for years and it looks fine in photos, but now? NO. Plus, revlon's fomulation tastes and smells funny/annoying to me now.
What should I do, then? Send her a gift? Sacrifice? … Unholy fruit basket?

Plei, I need to thank you for recommending wet'n'wild liquid eyeliner
And I, in turn, need to thank Allyson. I love the stuff.
I've never been able to get the smoky eye thing right.
Part of the trick is to do most of the smoky part with a lighter shade of shadow than you'd think you'd be using, and to smudge the crap out of your liner. Q-Tips work well for that.

Allyson's eyes were what prompted me to return to liquid. I just remembered your recs in particular.
I really should just subject myself to a makeup counter (especially since it appears my drugstore powder of choice has been discontinued, I really liked it and have only one compact left,) but I'm so DIY, it's haaaaarrrrrrdddd.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Mind the gap.
OMG, nothing was funnier than that when I was in London at 19.

What's your drugstore powder?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I love WNW liquid eyeliner. And their concealer.

Hi!
Eyeliner is tricky, frustrating, and fun.
I passed out in a nap this afternoon during prime productivity hours. I now have a headache, and feel a vague urge to go to The Grove to visit the Genius Bar at Apple. Anyone wanna go with me?

What are you doing at the Genius Bar, Alibelle?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have a stupid allergy problem to deal with. Haven't worked out which lip product ingredient it is yet, but I can tell by putting it on my lips--takes less than a minute before the bad tingling, the tingling that presages the rash, starts. Adds a layer of fun to shopping for lip colour.
Next time I go hunting, I need to make sure my nails are done. I have been pretty happy with the Black Honey Glosswear by Clinique, but I want something a bit less transparent than that--and I have the precise nailpolish--and wickedly wet and shiny.
