Has anyone tried Smashbox's O-glow? I'm thinking of ordering it...

I ordered it and hated it. It came out looking pepto-bismol pink on me. Like something really horrible from the 80's. One of my sisters tried it in the store and hated it also.

Okay. Today is my first full day of use of Diorshow. I know it isnt a popular opinion here, but I love Diorshow! It makes my lashes so big, it doenst run with my watery allergy eyes (the waterproof Diorshow atleast), and it keeps my lashes curled for 9 hours with no reapplications.

I am a total fan of DHC Skincare (www.dhccare.com).They are a Japanese company (and who has better skin??) and I adore their olive oil based products. They are great about sending you samples, so you can try it first. The first time I washed my skin with their Deep Cleansing Oil I ran around having everyone feel my skin - it felt that good, even before moisturizing (I have a thyroid problem, so dry skin is an issue). I get compliments on my complexion all the time (I'm 43!)
My 17 yr. old daughter went from Proactive to DHC - now has FANTASTIC looking skin.
I have yet to try their make-up, though - I still have too much of everything else.

For mascara, I love MAC's Pro Longlash...it's my favorite mascara so far!

And I got my new blush today (NARS's Orgasm)...I love it

I have discovered the benefit counter.

Today I got the eyebright pencil and the "big beautiful eyes" eyeshadow kit...

LOVE LOVE LOVE.

How do you get the samples? I looked on their website but could not find anything. I am always up for trying something before I buy it...

Give them a call and order a catalog - they send samples with the catalog, and everytime you place an order you can order up to 4 more samples.

I would like some eyeshadow recommendations. I've never really felt like I have found a good shade for me. I have dark brown hair and light eyes that are either blue or green depending on what I'm wearing and pale skin with blue undertones.

My old standby is a light shell pink shadow with a light suede brown on the crease and dark brown eyeliner. I also like Stila's Wheat shadow although it's a little glittery and I like a more matte shadow.

Lately I have been using a charcoal eyeliner that I really like and so the brown shadow doesn't match. But a gray shadow doesn't look as good.

Any suggestions?

I love the DHC Velvet Skin Coat- before I would put on makeup in the morning and by the time I came home at night it looked like I didn't put any on- but with the skin coat it seems to "stay put" much better.
