What color would you say this is?
Thanks! I would say that I have mostly level 8, but with some of the non-sun exposed parts looking like a 7 (closer to the nape). I guess I will just have to experiment a little and stay flexible! Most people that know me know how experimental I am with my hair (:rolleyes:) so a little bit of... -
What color would you say this is?
Thanks everyone for your replies. Ohairas, it is great to have a resident stylist on board (no pun intended)! So, if I were to use Wella demi-permanent Color Charm in a level 6-7 that would be the same as any other brand's level 7-8? You see, I do have naturally blonde hair, and I used the... -
The perfect lip gloss
Clinique has some glosses that I really like. Although the color is sheer, they do not get sticky. I love the pigmentation in the MAC glosses (Lychee is sooo pretty!) but I really could go without the stickiness. -
What color would you say this is?
Julianne Moore: http://www.magazine.org/Events_and_Seminars/Conferences/American_Magazine_Conference/covers2006/HBCeleb.jpg Light Auburn? I really want to go for a more natural-looking red and stay away from the brighter coppers that I have done in the past. -
Found a good vintage-y product for straw-like tresses!
I am fairly sure that vitamin B5 is not a silicone... http://www.pdrhealth.com/drug_info/nmdrugprofiles/nutsupdrugs/pan_0196.shtml An example of a silicone that is in hair care products would be dimethicone. I am also fairly sure that silicones do not make your hair fall out! Most... -

I need some new hairstyle ideas
You are really pretty, and it looks like you have really nice hair too! I love the red color! If your hair is naturally curly, why don't you try encouraging the curls one day to see how that turns out!? As a naturally stick straight person, I can tell you that I get curl envy every time I see... -
WHOA! Awesome makeup, check her out!
She really does look like the original Barbie, though I have always thought that the original Barbie had a kind of mean-ish, cynical look on her face! EDIT: Wow, I just saw all of those other hairstyles from the link! I liked her "blue" phase the best. I have never seen blue suit anyone so... -
Found a good vintage-y product for straw-like tresses!
I have been using VO5's original conditioning hair dressing on the ends of my hair. The ends of my hair get dry and subjected to a lot of stress (chlorine, styling, etc.) and they end up feeling straw-like and lose their sheen. The conditioning hairdressing seems to work a real treat on the... -
~Recreating Hair styles of the 1940s~
I would like to ask if bangs are period for the 1940s. I don't seem to come across many photos with them. If so, what kind of bangs? If not, is there any other time or place in the past when they were popular? -
Perfect foundation/face powder
I like the Alba botanica sea enzyme scrub. It is scrubby but the particles are super tiny so they are more gentle than most scrubs that I have tried. Good luck! The only other suggestion I have is maybe to try a cream-stick or other emollient foundation. -

Cold Cream- Brands and advice!
I always had been told not to use any oily eye-make up remover (that is what I was told when I was in ten, when I had the stage makeup instruction class for dance). I always have used a separate oil-free eye make up remover pad (Almay, coincidentally) and now I am glad that I have! Wow, they... -

Cold Cream- Brands and advice!
Yes, I was majorly dismayed when my beloved Burt's Bees Almond Hand Creme went rancid after less than a year. I guess that is the downside of using more natural products (less preservatives?). I tried to keep using it but the smell was just too off. So sad! -
Stocking/Hose Storage
I actually put my hosiery back in the original packaging after sink washing it. I wrap it around the lightweight cardboard, slide it into the plastic bag and keep it on the bottom of the drawer. I have had the best luck this way. :rolleyes:- VanillaT

Cold Cream- Brands and advice!
I believe that some people claim that mineral oil will clog the pores. I take this with a grain of salt because it has not done so in my personal experience. I found this article on "mythbusting" about "mineral oil:" http://www.paulaschoice.com/learn/art.asp?ID=178 I think it is safe... -

Before the big hair plunge...
Thanks for your opinions... it is helping me get my nerve up to do the deed! I've got fairly fair warm-toned (I guess yellowish) skin. -
Before the big hair plunge...
I tested out some hair dye that I am trying to get up the nerve to use on hair collected from my brush. Here is how it turned out: So, do you think that it looks like a plausible haircolor? I am going for a light auburn red, but not too bold. I would appreciate your opinions on if it... -
Vintage Turning Point
:) Haha. I have always been like this. I used to wear pilgrim outfits and prarie girl outfits to elementary school. My mom tried to convince me that I would get reamed by my fellow students, but I knew what I wanted and I was stubborn. I was in the third grade when I actually tried to make...- VanillaT

Home spa treatments
A really good foot soak that I like (but I don't know if anyone else will...) is to simply mix about 1/2 cup of white vinegar with about 2 gals of warm water and soak feet in it for until the water gets cold. I had to do that soak every day for about two weeks after I had *TMI warning*... -
Home spa treatments
I like to have little eye and neck pillows that I have made out of fabric scraps and filled with flax seeds coated in a few drops of lavender essential oil. I learned this trick from dance... you can put the pillow pack in the microwave or freezer for a few mins to get heat or cold and it is...
