All of my makeup is MAC. Zoom Lash is my best friend. It does wonders for your eyelashes.

Thank you so much for this awesome recommendation. I bought it and instantly fell in love. It surpassed my expectations. Plus, it's 1/2 the price of the Benefit one I was previously considering. Thank you thank you thank you.

It is thick but, like GP said, a little really does go a long way. I've had it for about 6 or 7 months, and it's just now starting to look like I've been using it.

Alright, I have to praise Benefit FY...Eye some more - I am still using the jar we talked about last December and it's about 25% full! I just ordered another one for backup but this one is definitely worth the money.
Has anyone tried the Posietint from Benefit yet? I like the Benetint but I'm thinking I might wear the Posietint more. Duh, I just saw somebody asked about this upthread. I'll post if I try it!

When you go to Florida next, you should try Ulta, if there's one near you. It's so great--it's like Sephora, but with a lot more things (a lot of drugstore-type beauty supplies) like hair care products and nail products, and it's about 25% cheaper than Sephora. Not like it's expensive--but that's 25% more you can buy!

I have been using the Posie Tint for a couple of weeks now and I love it!!! I've only used it on my cheeks and not lips though, so I'm not able to tell you how it works there. It's a bright pink color when it comes out of the bottle (like, oh crap that pink is bright!) but it gives you a great flush and blends really easily!

Has anyone tried Philosophy The Supernatural foundation? I like the fact it's talc, oil and paraben-free. I'm almost out of my current foundation (Lorac compact) and need to decide if I want to switch or not. The closest Sephora is 2 hours away, so I can't test it in person. We do have a [smallish] Ulta in town, so I might see if there's anything there I like, too.
I also need new mascara.
Oh, and someone please convince me it's perfectly okay to spend the $40 on Touche Eclat, because everyone I've heard that uses it says it's the best concealer ever.

I would go to the YSL counter, put some on and wear it around for a while first. It didn't do jack for me but I have horrible circles and it straight up says it won't fix really horrible circles.

I really like the Philosophy Supernatural foundation. It's a lot like bare minerals, except not as messy, because the applicator is built in and you just kind of tap and buff on. :-)

im looking for new shades of eye shadow to wear. i like to keep it semi-natural and not too flashy for work/school but when night comes and im going out, i like to make it hot! haha
i use clinque's like mink. the light shade for the day then add the darker color for night and i also use another darker brown that i got in a sample.
anyone have any good ideas for day practical and/or hot night eyeshadow?

I use Philosophy's Supernatural I will warn you that it does give you an "airbrushed" look meaning matte so after I put it on I do follow it up with a bronzer because I prefer to "glow" that to look "airbrushed". lol
I recently have been using Chanel's newest exceptionnel mascara (with the lash comb/brush combo) and I LOVE it!
Oh an FYI ladies, since Hard Candy is being discontinued, it is on sale right now so stock up on your favorites!

If you find something that really does work, let me know. I feel like I have tried everything in the free world.
