[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.
THANK YOU. Dana - I love that first one you linked to. I love that silhouette. I could wear some awesome tights with that.
And how do I not own a pair of plain, black pumps? So odd.
Cause what fun is plain? It's about the one thing I don't have.
Let me rephrase. The only pair of black pumps I have are black satin peep-toes with a rhinestone buckle. I need ... less party, more business-y. But still can be funky and sugar!
I thought that first one looked like something you might wear. Dress Barn's website often has coupons, too.
All the dresses are lovely, but the first and last that Dana linked seem perfect.
I'm amazed by how quickly the hivemind comes up with quality references. Y'all have got some skillz.
It is rare that I can ever contribute to the 'get it here' conversation, but yesterday, my MAC lady gave me a hot tip on where to buy makeup brushes...which are ridic with the expensive! She buys hers at Coastal Scents.
I bought 5 for what one would have cost anywhere else I looked.
Coastal Scents is great for makeup brushes. They also sell silica spheres powder, which is the exact same product as Make Up For Ever's HD Powder or Aromaleigh's Ultra Resolution powder.
Jilli, my foray into makeup has been a bit daunting.
I need everything matte for on-camera. I know you've said before, but could you say again which eyeliner you recommend?
I have primer, foundation, concealer and three shadows I quite like, via MAC.
My current powder, mascara and blush are cheapo, drugstore varieties...Maybelline, Revlon and The Body Shop, respectively. Lipstick is actually Avon.
I'd be glad to have all MAC stuff, but I've already dropped one and a half bills!!
My eye pencils are cheap too but I feel that particular product ought to be a good one...with proximity to the eye and all.
Tech Tip question, the aesthetition lined my lower lid _above_ the lash line, as opposed to under. I've never done that before. Is it correct?
The inside rim of the eye, you mean? You can do it, but it closes up the eye. I wouldn't do it for the camera. I quite like Lancome eyeliner.
