Hello ladies! I've been away for a while so just checking in!
Thought I'd give a little review of some of the products I've tried from this thread.
Monistat Chafing Gel - Love this product! Works EXACTLY like the expensive primer I was buying at a fraction of the cost. Bought the 3-pack from
Amazon so it should last a while.
However, it doesn't seem to work very well on my eyelids as a primer.... my eye shadow still fades and gets stuck in the crease after an hour, but that's most likely because I use cheap eye shadow! That's the next thing on my "to buy" list!
Stila Smudgepot - Whoever recommended this eye liner to me, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! It's GREAT! It really does last ALL DAY LONG!! I'm still playing around with the two different style brushes - haven't made up my mind which I like better - and the colors. I've tried the bronze (very pretty with the gold shimmer to it) and now I've moved onto the silver/gray. Once my hand is a little more steady, I'll try the black for a little more drama.
Buxum Lip Gloss - I'm not sold on this product. The color is pretty and I like the shine, but I don't think my lips are any plumper while wearing it. I really can't tell a difference between this $18 gloss and my $4 lip gloss. Maybe my lips are just not sensitive enough to whatever the ingredient is that swells your lips....
No-No Hair Remover - I was a little skeptical about this product, especially because of the cost, but with the 60-day return window at Sephora, I decided to try it without risk. I really do like this product. Does take some time getting used to it (especially the burning smell... little scary). But I've noticed a big change in the feel of my legs. I'm still shaving just as often (for now), but my legs are now
silky smooth for a couple of days (!); whereas before, I always had a little stubble even right after shaving due to very thick/coarse hair. I've been doing my legs and arms. Will move onto my bikini area when I'm a little more practiced, LOL.
Think that's it.... Like I said before, my next purchase will be a quality eye shadow. I just don't know what color to go with or brand?
I have very dark brown eyes (almost black).... what would you all suggest for eye color?[/QUOTE]
Do you have dark brown/black hair too? We must have the same coloring. I use purples, grays, and I have been using some deep mustardy tan in the crease another Mac Pallet. I use MAC and Stila. You have the same eye shape as me also. I got a MAC pallet which is coordinted with all the colors of from dark to light. Pale pink over the lid to the brow(does not show pink) as a base lighter gray purple on lid, dark on edge(check out Gosssmakeup artist for the application of it). I use the brown stila liner but very very close to my lashes and then mascara. In the v on the side of your eye I use a tiny and I mean tiny bit of MaC carbon it defins and makes deep set eyes pop. Really all I do is put a tiny vee and then blend it. Now bear with me here, I got the idea from youtube lanaindiana..she is a nut and would not wear my make up as extremely as she does but the little black really works.
Stila smudge pot brush... get the thin angled brush at ULTA when it is on sale bogo it works great on the eyeliner.
It is on 6 easy payments of like $30 bucks. It is so, so, so tempting, but I'm going to resist and add it to my Christmas list. (At least that is the plan 
).
but thank you for the clarification. I am probably closest to the Ulta in Attleboro. I actually saw it for the first time a few weeks ago but didn't go inside. Where is the one in Natick though?? I know where the Sephora is and visit it frequently but never knew there was a Ulta!! 
if you go to
