I don't know if it's "real vanilla flavor" but it sure doesn't taste bad!

I think it's totally worth it. Something to consider though is that they're smaller than your standard lipstick, which is a drawback when you consider the price. I know I'm not the only person on this board that loves them, though. There's a whole bunch of threads that mention Besame!

StrayCat- it's Easter and even though myself and a 90 year old lady are the only ones who participate, I LOVE the tradition of Easter bonnets to church

For an upcoming trip where I am wearing all vintage clothes, I've just bought some Mary Kay Cream-to-Powder foundation. Also got translucent loose powder. Have used thes successfully in the past for my vintage look, trying it again.

Otherwise I use a tinted moisturizer by Dr. Gross.

First of all: BRAVE move, going ALL vintage. :thumb:
I've never tried creme-to-powder... so, could you write some sort of review: what if feel like on the skin, is it saggy after some hours, does it feel heavy.
Thank you. :D

LOL I adore Mel Brooks.

Mine stays put. I just darken a freckle that's just dark enough to be seen through my makeup. I've been doing it long enough that I feel weird when I don't do it. I don't think I look "right." One of these days, I'm going to a cosmetic tattooist and have her just do it for me permanently.


Today: Same as yesterday, only I've got brown eyeliner on. :p

I went to apply for a job today, but it was early, and I didnt want to "over-do" the vintage, so this is what I went with
Foundation
Green eyeshadow, gold in the crease, white as the highlight
black liquid liner just on top lid
mascara(which I applied differently today, so my eyes felt sticky-it was awful)
blush
bronzer to contour my cheeks
red lipliner, with rose lipstick.


EDIT: I dont know why there is an atached thumbnail..i pciked the wrong picture when I first posted, went back to fix it, and now the thumbnail is attached
