Ooo Ooo I like it!
Here are my two all-time favorites:
1) Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick Creme No. 675 Volcanic Red
AND
2) Lumene (Finnish brand) Happy Reds No. 410 In My Heart (Sydamessain)
As you can see I have a bit more of a yellowy-toned skin so I stick to warmer reds. :-p
;-) Well, I don't quite have a wardrobe yet! But I will tell you the years that I wish I did have (whether real vintage or repoduction)!
I am a BIG fan of anything 1930s, and still a fan of the 1920s and 1940s. Actually, what got me started in all of this was watching A & E Poirots and...
Hmm. This post is awesome! It makes me want to start trying to do some of the styles. The problem is this, however: I have the most stick-straightenest finest slipperiest most curl resistant hair that a gal could have. Even wet-set pin curls with gel up the wazoo and hairspray manage to...
Man, I had a Clinique lady one time pull that crapola on me and I left. Immediately. I had been having a really bad time with my acne but I thought it was finally clearing up and here was this counter lady telling me that it was awful and that I really needed to scrub it. I walked away as...
Okay, here it goes! [All of these things are under $7 US... I am a student so I am used to being on a budget!]
1. Ponds Cold Cream
2. Dickinson's Witch Hazel
3. Basis Sensitive Skin Bar Soap
4. Cover Girl Professional Mascara in Brown
5. Revlon Superlustrous Lipstick in Volcanic Red or...
I haven't tried Besame powder yet, but I have tried the Coty Airspun. I like the Coty pretty well. I would like to let everyone know however, what my favorite powder is. It only comes in one shade, but that doesn't seem to matter (actually the gal that introduced me to it was a v...
I feel like I am probably 80 percent modern and 20 percent vintage. I hope that's not a no-no! I mix the two as well... again, hopefully not breaking any unknown 'rules' here. :eusa_doh:
My best look ever:
A three-quarter length pale yellow shirt with thin white stripes and a slight ribbed texture... it had a shallow scoop neck and buttoned up the top third of the shirt; a pair of darker jeans; and strawberry blonde shoulder-length hair. Sigh.
I can't wait to try the faux stocking method suggested by Jitterbugdoll! I am going to try it first on a day when I am sticking at home and don't have to go anywhere just to make sure I can get it down. I am going to have to pick up some cheaper make up and hairspray to try it out. And I do...
I have been using the Nivea in the blue tin/glass jar for my heavy moisturization needs and it has been really swell. In fact, I only ever use my Nivea anymore because it has pretty much aced out all of my other moisturizers!
I would note however, that I have really dry skin. :rolleyes:
I have been using the Pan-stik as my winter foundation as I found a good color match (nude ivory 121) and I liked the idea of having an emollient cream foundation to help guard against windburn. When I first bought it I thought it looked horrible and cakey but I realized that the key to this...
Hmm. I only every do the top lash. I have very long bottom lashes and when I put mascara on them it appears as if I had glued some falsies on! Also, I just don't like the look of mascara on the bottom lash. I think it looks good on gals with darker hair and eyes but I am really washed out to...
VargasGirl:
I have tried demi-permanents before in a light copper shade, and it really looked strange... it managed to muddy up my hair but at the same time in the light it looked like one of those little old ladies with white hair who had shampooed in a strawberry blonde color (you know...
I have had success with hairdye about 9/10 times... but that 1 time that I screwed it up I screwed it up bad...
I have naturally pretty light blonde hair. It is pretty in the summer, but in the winter it looks ashy and dull and that is when I start to yearn for reddish hair. In school I did...
I feel a little self concious when I wear super-bright lipstick colors- mainly because I wonder if they are wearing off and leaving me with a "ring" or if it has somehow gotten smeared across my face (mainly I worry about this while going out to lunch, for example). I know that most gals today...
