Can anyone recommend me a good translucent powder? I usually wear just a tinted moisturizer as foundation, but I feel like I need something to help it stay put during summer.

I want to get into wearing makeup more often - again. I own Bare Escentuals mineral makeup, but it seemed to break me out. I also own MAC Studio Fix Fluid and powder. The MAC is about 2 years old, and the BE is from last February. Are they good enough to use, or should I replace?

It should be fine.
Oh, and if you really want to try e.l.f., some K Marts have it so you don't have to pay the shipping. I got a concealer that I don't completely detest, but I'd never buy it again.

Not a lot of lipstick but tons of eyeshadow, foundation & palettes. I've never used Lorac but I may have to try it out!!

I went to sephora last night and bought: Bare Mineral face fashion earthy chic, benefit girls night in collection, and stila's black liquid eyeliner. I am in love with all of them!

Hey y'all- 20% off and free shipping at stilacosmetics.com with the code "stimulus"! Wish I hadn't found out about it... I wasted way too much money on the cute new Stila Loves Barbie collection.

I got Clinque's Black Honeyy lipstick and am pleasantly surprised with it. It looks very brown in the tube, but when on my lips gives me a deep-ish rose color.

I picked up covergirl's outlast lipstain on a whim. the tubing and applicator make it look like a magic marker. the color selections are o.k., nothing new or unique but it's a good staple for my desk at work.

The make-up line E.L.F. (eyes-lips-face) has been bought out by Nordstrom and will be re-packaged with the Nordstrom name on it. They are getting rid of the entire make up in the ELF packaging. They have everything powder, mascara, lipstick, a mineral line, brushes etc. They are selling most things for $1. Some things are $3 or $5 and then some sets are still $15 or $25. You do have to pay shipping. The website is http://www.eyeslipsface.com/shop.asp When you check out there is a space for a coupon code. Use CAROLINA and save an additional $7.50 if your order is over $15.00. Shipping is $6.50 but when you use the discount code it's like you got shipping for free plus another $1 off.

Is it ridiculously poor quality or what?

I heard this about a year or so ago. Little Ms. Skepticism (read: aephi alum) hit the web site and placed an order. For a few bucks how could you go wrong? Well, you get what you pay for...
- Brushes: Good enough, but I did have to repair my powder brush with some tape.
- Lip gloss: Forget it, it's lip-repellent.
- Eye shadow: OK, but I prefer my MAC eyeshadow.
- Eye shadow cream: OK if you like your eyeshadow to live in the crease above your eyelid.

I don't know if anyone's addressed this yet, but have any of you tried an at-home clear hair glaze? I'm sort of thinking of something like this and I'd love to hear your feedback/experiences. Thanks!
