Ive mentioned how much I have fallen in love with the Lip Fusion brand glosses.

And I do believe theyre continually plumping my pout. My lips look poofier than before I began using them. I love them.

And - keep in mind - VonMaur.com still has them clearanced out, if youre interested.

them....

Did you see my note a couple of pages back that I happened to see a couple of discontinued colors of Lip fusion at my local TJ Maxx and bought one for $6 ?? I think the color is 'Smooch'. I think the color I didn't buy was a very pink color called 'Kiss'.

I got really lucky!

I love going to TJ Maxx and see what make up or hair products finds they might have.

YOU MUST KNOW what our answer will be.....MONOSTAT Chafing Gel. It is a great primer for mineral as well as creme based foundation. Honestly, it is the all purpose primer for everthing.

You need to join the Monistat club!!! See the first post, I think Cat put a link for you so you can find out what it's all about.

I'm not sure if I was the only one who has been trying to get those elusive Stila Smudge Pots on Beautycrunch, but I just found them in stock! I quickly put them in my shopping bag and bought them without even shopping further or trying to save on shipping!

Now I have a question about them: Recently I was going to buy the black at Sephora and it was sold out so I got Smashbox instead. They had waterproof and regular and I got regular. I think it's pretty good, but it does migrate south just a tiny bit during the day. Would this have been better if I got waterproof? Is the Stila product waterproof? Has anyone used both Stila and Smashbox and can share which they liked better?

First off let me say my MAC arrived at my door today. Apparently they cannot even live up to what they say because according to the email I got originally I would be getting an e mail when the product was shipped. I tried to write them an e mail last night but low and behold.....the site would not send it! Honestly, they have absolutly the worst site in the world and I could not even let them know!!

As to the Stila..DEC5, I am sooo glad you were able to get it! I have used the Stila for quite a while and it has NOT smudged or run at all!! While I do not know if it is waterproof I do know that once it dries it is hard to get off!

So I saw the reference to the monistat but wasn't sure. Really just rub the stuff on my face! My DH is going to be laughing his butt off

It is the powder Monistat for chaffing, not the OTHER Monistat! It is a beauty tip I'm not telling my DH for sure!!! It works, trust us.

Your MAC saga.........it's keeping me from developing the habit of shopping another website. I'm terrible enough already!

I'm so excited to get the smudge pots. Do you use the gold colored one very often? I'm wondering what that one is going to look like.

You're close. Monistat is meant to keep from rubbing your butt off.

IT is actually bronze but looks brown and I use it pretty much every day. I had one already in the full size but this set will last you about two years because you need very little. Just be sure you practice with it because once it is dry it is hard to get off.

JUST to reiterate be sure it is the POWDER GEL for Chafing although I heard that the ohter stuff is supposed to be good for your hair.

Really? What hair problems does it address?

According to something I think Cathryn Rose posted or mabye it was someone else the regular monostat is supposed to either keep hair from falling out or make it grow. NOw I do not believe it makes it grow so I am thinking it was keep it from falling out. It is on this thread somewhere if I am not mistaken. I had thought about trying it but I was not sure how to use it.

Thanks everyone. Now I am headed to the store to find it tomorrow

So my husband is on business in NY city and he calls me because he is walking in front of a huge Sephora and they are having a grand opening (or so he says) and he is telling me that people are walking out with huge bags of free stuff. I do not believe him....does anyone know if they opened a huge sephora in Time Square??? I told him to go in and get me some if it was free!

Has anyone heard of a store called Bella Beauty? It appears that a new store is going to open in the mall named this and I can't find anything online to say if it is a chain or if it is going to be a locally owned store. Figured if it is a chain store someone on this thread would know about it.

I don't remember who I was "discussing" this with, but I FINALLY got my MAC order which included several lipglasses and a plushglass. Gotta say that I really like them. Not as much sting as the Buxom and not quite as sticky, but still sticky - Hubby will NOT kiss me while wearing these.

One thing - the colors in real life look nothing like the swatches on their stinky website so you really have to go by the written description. I'm happy though and may try some more when and if there is another sale/coupon.

Wasn't me. The yeast meds make your hair not grow?? Or wait...makes it grow?

Why are people trying these things out in these strange ways??

I've always HATED that about MAC's site. Even after they revamped it, their swatches suck.

If I am not mistaken(and God knows I could be) Bella is a line that seems to be available on Beauty Crunch. I am guessing that MAYBE the Bella store is like a MAC store...only a guess.
