I do not know who figured it out but I want to give them the Nobel Prize.

I am ticked there were two tubes at WalMart and I got only one. Did you read the article? I was reading the Too Face line erase and it has silicone in it too. It is the same damn stuff. I feel like the cosmetics companies are going to send gangs of assins to Monstat to kill the president of the company or something.

Ok I just got back from CVS. Dd needed notecards for exams this week..perfect excuse for me to check out the Monistat. Well Walgreens looked at me like I had 2 heads! Went to CVS and found it! I only bought one, but now I regret not getting the other one that was sitting on the shelf!
I can't wait to try this in the morning. Can I put this under my eyes too? I know it said to put it on your lid, but I always worry about a reaction under my eyes. Too many stories about creams burning under my eyes. Just returned a Patricia Wexler under eye cream to Bath and Body Works because of the terrible burning.

Hello everyone. We are flying out early in the morning to California. I thought I would drop in to tell ya'll that the too faced lash injection mascara does absolutely nothing for my eyelashes. I don't understand. They look likeI just used regular old drugstore mascara.
My sister in law came over today. Her eyelashes looked so good. Guess what she had on? Give up? You sure you want to know?..............Makeup Forever Mascara smokey lash from Sephora. Has anyone else tried it? She told me everytime she wears that mascara people ask her what she's wearing. It looked really good.
Well, If I don't get to check back tonight, I will be checking in on my trip. Talk to ya'll later.

I've heard rave reviews of smokey lash. It all depends on your lashes. Personally I stick to drugstore mascara because spending $20+ every 3 months is just too much for me.

Wow, I thought I was being so good buying the Revlon foundation primer for "just" $10 only to find out now that I was ripped off! After reading the review of Monistat, I want to try it.

Is anyone trying primer while wearing liquid foundation?

I do not think it would hurt your undereye it is the same stuff in the Too faced product that is like 19 for the tiny tube only it is colored. Infact it is the same stuff they use for filler in the patricia Wexler filler too. If it works on the lid then I think it would work on the undereye with no problem. You know I do not know why they looked at youlike you had two heads at WalGreens because this stuff has been around for a while. Ijust looked in my make up case that I take on vacation and I had one in there I forgot about because I got it just in case I had a problem and this was last summer!

ME! I wore it today with Paula's Choice liquid foundation. I usually put some BE over my foundation to make it look flawless but with this stuff I did not need it.

 

[kimmie]

Yes Bella I even talked with the pharmacist! We had 3 people looking for it! But when I went to CVS it was with the regular Monistat yeast stuff. I can't wait to try in the morning. I put some on my hand and it feels wonderful!
So excited to get up and go to work tomorrow with my fresh face!

You know - I just saw this when I got back - but I only saw the Monistat brand anyways.....

I started by the feminine cleansing items - moved down to family planning - then down to the 'regular' monistat items - then turned back around and found it back where I had started....by the cleansing items.

I must have looked like a very very confused, distressed woman.

I'm not gonna do my eyes - I dont think.

They had a total of 4 on the shelf by me - but I wanna try this out, first.

It feels super nice on the back of my hand - so I asked my husband to feel this hand - now feel this hand. I said - which one feels nicer. He picked the Monistat hand. Then I told him what it was and he looked horrified. THEN I told him what I was planning on doing with it. He looked SUPER horrified!!!

I had to explain it wasnt THAT Monistat - and he still is super:

YOu know I thought it was me I was not thrilled with the lash injection but I just thought i needed to add more coats which I did not do.

Catherine Rose tell your husband he is lucky you are not using the Prep H for your under eyes. I went through that phase too but it smelled awful and it made my eyes water.

When I was in Wal Mart they have this stuff ACROSS from the Men's items like deodorant etc. I could not believe it. I am hunting in the aisle but it was not near the "infection" products LOL it was up the aisle near the "cleaners" and next to the KY There were a couple of old men and a young guy in the aisle looking at their side of the aisle and I was so happy I did not have to go to the infection area....but then again what does it say if I go to the chafing area ?

I am seriously -

 

[kimmie]

Thank goodness DH is out of town! He thinks I am crazy anyway with all of this stuff!
CVS had it near the yeast control. Who knows where it was at Walgreens..never found it there.
Good to know about the WalMart location.

Frankly,

I feel the Wal Mart location very insensitive. I mean they if the put the tampons etc on the other side of the aisle it would make sense or even cosmetics but all the men's stuff? Whoever set the store has a warped sense of humor and trust me ....they did not do it by accident. I used to work in retail and no way did they put the men's crap across from the infection/lubricants. I did not look but I wonder if the condoms were across from this stuff too. I think it was a subliminal ploy for abstinence.

 

[kimmie]

Bella - I even looked in the foot powder area at Walgreens!
Totally agree with you. That is an awful place.
I guess given the name Monistat, one would assume it would be near the feminine products, right?

That is the weird thing it was not near the feminine products. I have no idea where the sanitary products were. They were not in the next aisle. It was so strange.

Good evening, Makeup Queens!!

I am so happy that y'all are trying out the Monistat and liking it!! I am checking in and reporting on day 3 of my Monistat trial.

Got up and put on my "face" at around 10am. Put on the Monistat and it was wonderful feeling, as usual. Put on my makeup- went on like a dream. I find that I am getting better and more even coverage with LESS mineral MU foundation than I used to use.

It is after 10pm now, and my face still looks and feels great. The one drawback I've noticed- the Monistat does nothing at all to curb the "oilies". I am having some definite oily breakthrough on my nose by the late afternoon. A light dusting of my Everyday Minerals Start-To-Finish Rice Powder takes care of the oil, though.

I continue to be very thorough in cleansing in the evenings- I am prone to breakouts, and don't want to experience that with the Monistat. So far, no problems. I did have one little zit this evening, but I am just finishing up my "time of the month", so I attribute it to that, not my makeup.

I'll keep checking in- would love to hear from y'all, too! Report on how you like the Monistat gel- it will be great to compare everyone's experiences.

I have a feeling this will be the same reaction I am going to get, lol!
