Goodie- Just noticed where you're from! Not too far away:) Hopefully sometime you can make it to a lounge event around here and get to meet you!
At the same time of getting the 'dirty' looks, I also get a kick out of the stares, and yes, the few smiles that come across people's faces as I"m out...
ok, this may be a bit :offtopic: but, my hair is REALLY light blonde, but my eyebrows are still kind of dark, I'm wanting to somehow dye them a light shade...I saw a product at Sally's, but wondering, anyone here ever done this, and what did you think of the results?
I feel your pain!
My own grandmother got rid of a whole bunch of great vintage clothes and accessories a couple of years before my fascination with the era's:( - and to add insult to injury, her clothes would of probably fit me perfect. *sighs* ah, well, so is life I suppose!
Estate sales are...
favorite cosmetics
lipsticks;
Mary Kay; pink pout lip gloss (this looks a bit scary cause in the tube the gloss looks purple)
Mary Kay; redwood (a very nice brick-red lipstick; also great for redheads)
Palladio (found at Sally Beauty Supplies); geranium
eyeshadows;
revlon colorstay...
I put on the savvy mineral make-up again yesterday, and decided I don't like it (better lighting is always a great thing for discovering this:rolleyes: )....the lightest shade they have is still too dark for my skin tone and it really does reflect light, but, it gives off the impression of a...
You know, most classics don't get me crying at all! My list of tear jerkers is basically all modern films as well...you're not alone!:)
'You've got mail'- Always at the end when Kathline Kelly meets Joe Fox at the park, and she starts crying...the tears start flowing...EVERY TIME, and I must...
I knew I remembered an article about this in one of my magazines! Here's some suggestions on how to look great in photos from 'InStyle' ....
The perfect pose;
face; To avoid a double chin, straighten your neck, relax your shoulders, then push your chin out and downward.
Arms; Resting arms...
Welcome to the lounge Thora! :)
Another suggestion for finding a place to have your hair styled is to ask around. A place I go to, doesn't exactly cater to the 'older' ladies, but I swear their the best place to go-it is the only place I've been to that when I leave, I'm absolutely happy with...
I just bought some mineral make-up at Sally's, the brand is by 'savvy'...I still like lily lo lo's better, but this stuff has light illuminators that's supposed to make you look younger and more 'radiant' (yes, I'm a sucker for ads:p )...the look is actually pretty darn cool, it's not a 'matte'...
I couldn't find the right kind of shampoo at any of the grocery stores in town, so I finally made the trip to Sally's and found some by L'oreal (which...:eusa_doh: should of done in the first place!) the stuff works great! it even took away some of the brassiness that was starting to...
Goodie; Exactly! A recent example is taking my girls to the public library for story time...I wasn't dressed to the hilt-at least by my standards, but, was in a nice skirt, blouse, and yes, those stockings:eek: :) ....NONE of the other mom's would talk to me, and a few gave me the most dirtiest...
Maybe it's just me, but...Around here, the main kind of attire is the jogging suit, pajama-suits or sweat suits. So wearing slacks or a skirt, I still get some mean looks from my fellow ladies (what's up with that anyways?) but I always feel like I need a reason to wear a dress. I'm not talking...
Titanic (the newer version with Leonardo Decaprio)- cried like a baby after watching that in the theatre! Actually, I think every woman I saw walking out of there had mascara running down their faces!
I LOVE a good tear-jerker...one of my favorites is "Somewhere in Time", can't help it, every time I watch it I start bawling!:o
What are some other good one's?
I find that when I'm pms-ing/emotional, chocolate is about the only thing that makes me happy!
Diet has been a key factor to keeping symptoms low key...wheat free, little sugar and low salt diet...if I stay good to eat this way, I really have no cramps, no bloating and hardly none of the pms...
hey, egg preferences are like, a big thing, haven't you ever watched 'runaway bride?' it was her indecisiveness of how she liked her eggs that kept her from any kind of real commitment...it just goes to show that the people here know what they want:p
If You Have...
Puffy Eyes
What to eat
Diuretics, asparagus and parsley included, reduce bloating. Potassium-rich bananas and citrus fruits help maintain a good balance of fluids. Circulation boosters like cayenne pepper can aide in lymphatic drainage around the eyes.
What to avoid
Salt...
Your Welcome!:D I have all these great advice articles around figured I should put them to good use!!!
Yes, I have tried the sliced cucumbers...I find they work even better when they're cooled.
