'Serenity'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Tinted moisturizer is a thing.
It is! I don't wear makeup myself because of the warm humid climate thing, but I have seen them when looking at sunscreen moisturizers.
eta: I didn't even know there was a BB CC etc system. Just Googled. Learned something new.
Did you use the stuff the you tape around the edges then use the hairdryer? I used that up north and it worked quite well.
Yeah. Well, I didn't do the hairdryer part, because it didn't do anything when I tried it last year. I think my hairdryer doesn't get hot enough to shrink the shrink wrap.
The hairdryer really stretches it out so it is clearer, but probably no difference for insulation.
I worked for a pool construction company when I lived it Pittsburgh. We were so cold in our office with its crappy old windows that we took the pool cover material (like super thick bubble wrap) and covered the windows. Our boss was not amused, but it was too late since it was already cut up and duct taped over the drafty windows. Worked great.
BB/CC cream really is just tinted moisturizer. In some cases it's a bit more coverage than a tinted moisturizer, or has SPF where a moisturizer might not, but...yeah.
If you want to go super cheap, at Target the "Elf" line of cosmetics is super cheap, and I've heard good things--this last trip I forgot all my liquid baggie items, and bought some $2 lipstick and $3 BB cream!
There isn't a Target in Vermont, closest one is across the Lake. But hey that's what the internet is for!
My kitchen has one wall that's practically floor-to-ceiling windows. I have no idea how to deal with that. The metal blinds on the windows do insulate them somewhat, but mostly, I just keep the door to the kitchen closed, and don't cook much during the winter.
The L"Oreal BB cream is pretty good. It's $8 at Target. (It's almost twice that in Canada.)
I bought a tube of the L'Oreal BB in Fair. I like it. It comes out of the tube white, with teeny tiny darker beads in it, and it matches my very fair skin very well. It covers just a little, it doesn't look (or feel) like I'm wearing make-up but it smooths out my skin tone, which is what I wanted.
I have a friend who's always complaining about how her skin looks, but she refuses to wear any make-up or try any skin care products. She hates the way they feel and they all break her out. But she hasn't tried any in about 25 years, and she doesn't believe me when I tell her they aren't like they used to be. The technology has improved a lot.
All I want is a not full size but still an actual messenger style bag.If you get a line on one, I'd love to hear about it. I'd like my next purse to be similar to that. (Or maybe saddlebag style, if I can find one that'll hold both my iPad and my wallet, with a cross-body strap.)
