Tried the monistat primer..is it supposed to feel oily? I thought it dried. I put it under my eyes and waited a good 10 minutes before applying makeup. Within a few hours all my eye makeup was very smudged, as usual. I can't ever seem to keep my eyeliner on my eyelids!

What kind of eye make up and eyeliner are you using? Have you tried waterproof?

I've been using the Monistat for a week now. I must say I'm pretty impressed!

I did make the mistake of putting on too much the first time. My foundation started to bead up.

But other then that, I love the way it makes your skin feel so soft and smooth.

My makeup does last longer I've noticed. Only problem is I have acne scars around my chin area and for some reason only that area never stays covered the whole day.

But overall I love using the Monistat and will be using that for now on.

Did you maybe use too much? Did you only use it under your eyes? I'm baffled. Are you who said they were using Loreal eyeliner & Clinique Mascara? Was that you?

Maybe you should move onto something else? I really, really like Blinc's eyeliner.

And (I don't know if any of the newcomers know) I went to Beauty School, so I'm still able to go to the America's Beauty Show (http://www.americasbeautyshow.com/) every year. Generally, it's aimed towards hair stuff - but makeup and accessories are tossed in. It's a damn sensory overload is what it is.... ANYWAYS.... my g/f picked up this: http://www.cailyncosmetics.com/category_s/196.htm - It was a "new" brand, and I was being a snob. I am PISSSSSED off at myself. ( I pulled the snob thing, the first time Morrocan Oil was there, too! LOL!) That eyeliner is flipping A MA ZING! Stays put like glue. I use it whenever I am at her house. Awesome stuff. She got it for $10. Grrrr....

Have you tried Urban Decay Primer Potion under it and then setting it with a powder shadow over it?

Yeah - or Too Faced. But I'm baffled as to why she's losing that much product???? It's gotta be the product itself ??? No?

Yeah it def sounds like it could be product as well. MAC liners smudge like no other. If I don't set those I have raccoon eyes by the time I walk into my job.

By the looks of your ticker, you and I are gonna be at WDW at about the same time.

POP! We slum it.

It appears you'll be at GF. I will be coming by for sleep-overs.

Tell this Value Hotel'er - does CL mean, Concierge? If so, I'll be sleeping over, nightly. I'm fine on the floor.

Hey, we loveeeee Pop! Actually when I told DS where we were staying hecsaid "But why aren't we staying at Pop?!"

Yes, CL is concierge. If I weren't bringing my parents with us we wouldn't have upgraded, but since there's going to be 5 of us in a room I figured any extra space will be a blessing.

I'm looking for a good waterproof liquid eyeliner. Something reasonably priced if there is such a thing LOL. Also, would you put a primer under the eyeliner or only the eyeshadow?

Thanks for the suggestions. Could it be my crazy oily skin??

I got a new purse, I got a new purse, I got a new purse!


I was actually feeling so GUILTY! I have a hard time buying pricey things, for myself. So, my girlfriend - who also wanted one came up with a brilliant idea. She says "Wait!!! You buy this one for me, and I'll buy this one for you....then we won't feel guilty!" I said "Perfect! Absolutely perfect!!!!"

Then added to her brilliant idea (because we both liked each other's color choice) said "And let's trade them, after a couple months!" Yay!!! She's a genius!!!!

Mine:

Hers:

Mine is replacing this gold one, from March - which makes me feel more guilty, cuz I'm not really done with this Goldy, yet. I'm gonna just go back and forth between the two lil' ladies, now.

Tucked away in a bag, resting, waiting for her next debut:

I'm eyeballing my shiny new one now. She's cute.

Do you put Potion 9 on before you dry your hair or after? Do you apply it to your entire head or just at roots? I guess I'm not clear on exactly what it is/does.

Also, I could use an eyeliner that doesnt smudge and a really good mascara. Any suggestions?

I use it in wet hair, flat iron then use it again as a finishing product. Luv it!!

I like clinique Egyptian (color) liner and I just use the mascara samples that comes with makeup bonuses

AHHHHMAZING! Those bags are just to die for gorgeous!

Love this! I think you and I may have been in the same logic class at the college of shopping justification!!!

Wet, whole head. And.... sometimes I put a smidge in after it's dried, too - usually in winter though, to tame fly aways.

And I have to suggest Blinc's Eyeline and Mascara. I also love Too Faced lash Injection.

Thanks!! LOVE 'em!

Have any of you gals tried any sort of beauty balm while at WDW? I'm curious to see how well it holds up to sweat.

I have the Missha one I got for free. I actually like it, but haven't tried it at WDW. I think I'm just going to bring my airbrush. It's small and lightweight and lasts all day.

I just recently found this thread and love all of the great tips. It looks like there are some good reviews for the Neutrogena healthy skin rejuvenator and I was interested in trying this out. Can anyone explain the difference between this and the Neutrogena microderm system kit? Both use disposable pads but there is a significant price difference.

I just realized I said I was going to post pictures of the UD 15th anniversary palette and never did. Sorry for the quality I used my phone.

So here is the top. Pretty but gathers fingerprints like you would not believe

And then the inside. the inside is a mirror that goes edge to edge. The shadows themselves are great. Junkshow (the bright pink) is surprisingly easy to wear, and one of my favorites.

Even though the price is pretty high I think it was worth it. I do have to say the shadows are a bit smaller than the ones in the naked palette, but that's my only gripe.
