    Custom Blended Makeup

    Baby butterfly. I've got MAC face & body foundation in white, the studiofix fluid in NC15 and the Studiostick in NC15 (the stick is now discontinued) I like the white fluid as tinted moisturiser, I'm not keen on liquid foundations per se and I love the stick as it covers really well any areas...

    Custom Blended Makeup

    I used to like prescriptives but they mistyped me as Y/O was the only colour to approoch the paleness of my skin- also because Liverpool/ The Wirral has a high amount of Scandinavian decent so Y/O was a popular shade for undertones- but i have Celtic R/B undertones! They sold me the peach blush...

    Custom Blended Makeup

    I do the same - mix my foundation up everyday. Untill this weekend I could never see the point of tinted moisturiser- everything I had ever tried looked terrible, so i usually use my own custom foundation mix and concealer on my chin and under my eyes and just powder on everything else. BUT-...

    It's a little short at the moment (by about 1/4 inch) so I'm feeling a little blue- I know it will grow in no time though. After about 4 years with a bob i was looking foward to lovely Dita style style hair but i know with my hair it would just hang limply :(

    Considering going for the chop??

    I had been growing my hair to get a middy for the last few months and when to the hairdresser with a load of pictures today. The hairdresser knew how to cut a middy but after a long discussion we agreed on these things: 1. I suit my hair short-between jaw and chin length- it open up my face...

    Whats in YOUR winter wardrobe??

    I have really really specific taste so Vintage-inspired is usually for me. The coat in my avatar pic I got in Oasis last year and it's lovely. I also got a full length wool coat from a Gothic Designer which I have adapted to my taste. I like coats with a defined waist and a bit of fullness in...

    Paris fashion advice..thankyou

    I did some Paris shopping today- I got 3 pashminas- fuchsia pink bright teal and royal purple. I'm a bright winter colouring so I have to have brights- but I'll be teaming them with black. I also laid down £130.00 that I really can't afford on the most amazing dress by Phase Eight- royal purple...

    Does anyone else have difficulty sharing a bed?

    Bill, I'd like to say them same but I get the dubious 'benefit' of cuddling up to someone hard and smelly! (Sorry- to the Hubbie!) Well we finally got the second bed and set him up in a separte bedroom, complete with Darleks- and now he loves it so much he even watches TV in bed (which he...

    Thanks so much- that did help. My Mum used to be a beatnik too. She gave me some of here clothes she had kept when I was about 16- I loved them, till I lost them whilst staying over with friends!

    Weight loss options

    Does anyone else have difficulty sharing a bed?

    Lolly I was only just thinking about this today- how I've put on weight since I haven't been sleeping. It doesn't help that we have a shop in our work so it's too easy to give into sugar cravings to give me an energy boost- I've put on 1st and 1/2 and it's really getting me down :( I got...
