Kristin that would be awesome but I'm working tonight until 6 or so (the chronically late manager is closing.) I could come straight from work and be there between 7 and 8 but I don't want to keep you up too late or add stress to the night before your first day of school.Hmm. It's not ideal (I'm trying to be asleep by 9:30-10 tonight), but it's workable. The problem is that we're going to end up buying makeup at a grocery store (CVS closes at 6 on Sundays up here), and I'm not really all that good at picking stuff out in that situation. I'm a whore for the beauty supply stores where they have everything and awesome consultants everywhere. Even though I don't have a lot of extra money, I see my makeup as an investment. I pay more because I've found that the higher quality stuff looks better, is easier to apply, and lasts longer.
I'm really not the best consultant--I really only know how to do *my* makeup. I mean, with the help of a good consultant I'm fine, but I worry that I'll pick out bad stuff for you. Too bad Jen isn't available--she's a makeup guru.
Hmm. Hivemind, can you give Laga advice about specific brands of makeup that she can find at most pharmacies? I can do the color/application thing with her, but I have no idea what to buy.
ETA: Alternatively, I can make a run this afternoon to Sephora and get basic stuff like mascara. Thanks for the heads up, Megan! I think *I* want some of that stuff, too, and I'm out of mascara.
