yo im tired of waiting
















f*cking juna needs to post his makeup pics

You. Pluck. Your. Eyelashes...? That freaks the hell out of me LOL.

oh okay I read it wrong, you plucked out your individual ones that you got put in. I think those are called eyelash extensions or sth, and they're semi-permanent. It's too much of a pain for me, seeing as how you have to be suuuuper gentle and you can't use mascara (WTF?). Yeah.

lol they say you no longer need mascara. it does somewhat make a difference if you have nonexistent eyelashes like me. girls are critical so most will notice. the most annoying part was showering because the eyelashes tend to droop down.

i do pluck my real eyelashes. i always feel like there is something in my eye. instead of rubbing them like normal people, i have a tendency to pluck.

^ Dude, the plucking sounds really scary. Does/did it hurt?

Has anyone ever cut/trimmed/snipped their eyelashes? My mom said she cut my sister and my eyelashes when we were babies to help them grow faster.......................... so dangerous.

nope. oh i don't use tweezer or anything. just fingers. man i should do a video so you can listen to the noise too but it might gross you guys out.

I have never intentionally cut/trimmed/plucked/removed any of my eyelashes. It sounds scary, and plus I don't want to lose what little length I have.

LOL the noise. I'm curious. I'm imagining this weird twang sound.

Umm... where can i go to get an eyelash perm? it seems plentiful in Canada, but not in the States :(

^ I got it at the facial place I go to. I wouldn't have ever gotten it done, but the lady gave it to my sister, my mom, and me for free for Chinese New Year.

What a beautiful pear shaped head

(hehe I spelled beautiful wrong and the spell checker said fruitful! haha)

Sorry Gigi...

What kind of f*cked up head-shaped pears are you eating?

My haters have commented on my fruit-shaped heads before (e.g. Vyrrei and her peaches). Am I noticing a trend here?

Look, if you want to offend me, wax poetic on something that actually matters to me (not that other people will agree with you). And if you weren't trying to offend me, you seriously have the same people skills as Thomas does.

LOL

oh, gigi, your eyes are like... two luscious kiwis and your mouth is like a delectable banana!

I wasnt trying to offend you.
It was just a failed attempt at being funny.
haha
I think tung said your head was shaped like a pear one time.

At least Vyrrei got the general shape right. Never have I seen a round pear.

And yes, your attempt at being funny was horrible.


XD

lol you are like a white sean

oh umm i don't go to facial places, but i've tried looking it up *sighs* maybe i'll ask my hairdresser lady. she's asian. she'll probably know lol

SWEET DEAL! that's awesome.

chyeah okay, so after getting back from my friend's b-day celebration, i thought i'd start experimenting for the makeup contest and ended up going a little crazy. >.<


i think i'll blame the beer.
i think i might delte this later.

You know what that means.

*SAVED*

;) Cute btw, we should use that as the next theme!

^x2 You're so creative!! And hehe so cute too.

NUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Ugh Gigi, I am in love with your eyes and the way you do your makeup. I need better brushes!! Suggestions? Preferably ones that don't break the bank, haha.


Bored and getting ready for an End of the World Party!

^I have an ace bandages around my wrist FYI. Slipped and fell on ice in front of my apartment and really effed my hand up.

I LOVE THAT SECOND PICTURE GRR. Sexyy ;) love your brows too!

Hmm, cheap brushes that are good...I remember the first ever makeup brushes I bought were from Costco...Borghese I think? There were like 12 brushes under $25 CND. They're not amazing in quality but great for the price. I love the big eyeshadow brush in that one - it's so soft! They come out with a new one every year, and the one this year had a bunch of synthetic bristle brushes.

If not check out the Sonia Kashuk brushes at Target (personally have not tried because I don't live near a Target but heard great things about them), Eco Tools (I think that's the name) with the synthetic bristles + bamboo handles which I'm sure they sell at Target too.

If you want to get serious about your cheap brushes then check out Crown Brushes and the ones from Coastal Scents (Crown Brushes supplies Coastal Scents so they're essentially the same brushes).

Quick review on Crown Brushes: http://nessasarymakeup.blogspot.com/2008/0...lip-pencil.html

shit rachel. 2nd picture. sexy, can i?

gigi, sonia kashuk brushes are real good quality cheap brushes.

Rachel, you look like a hot librarian type. Lol.

I have some Essence of Beauty brushes from CVS. The face brushes aren't so great but the eyeshadow brushes are really good.

I've heard really good things about Loew Cornell which are actually artistry brushes but are soft enough for makeup. And they are only a few dollars each.

Some people use paint brushes instead of makeup brushes.

I would try that except I have no idea where a nearby craft store is. I don't want to spend money on a 239 brush from MAC if I can get one for like $3.00 at Michael's.



He goes into more detail about it ;)

I was just watching that a few nights ago to get some info on Loew Cornell.

I got like 5 art stores near me. Might go check them out soon.

yep. just need to feel the bristles on art brushes.

This should be in wishlist but too lazy to go there.



What it claims: Apply this morning and night for longer lashes. Protects your lashes throughout the day, hydrating them and providing them with greater firmness. Apply before using an eyelash curler to give your lashes a longer-lasting curl. Can also be used as a base for your mascara, increasing volume and helping application of mascara. Transparent, so won't affect the color of your eyelashes.

Apparently, it works.

a lot of that stuff claims that it works. i use lipocils.

^That's almost 4 times as expensive. =(

i actually have the loew-cornell maxine's mop. koren talks about it at 4:40 - got it from michael's for 2.50! michael's has sales semi-often and they DO have coupons (where you get them i dont remember...) so that's extra-win.

something i did for my sister at 3AM. lol. :)))

*images taken down

she currently claims to not be able to wash her face because she thinks its too pretty.

-_-!!!

f*g, man. f*g.

damn dawg your make up skills is so clean

HAY SANDY remember to post that video of you plucking your eyelashes.

I have that one! I have so much makeup...

But I have such a hard time finding foundation because I have oily/acne-prone skin and dark under-eye circles.. So when I put on concealer, the foundation just rubs it off. Its so annoying. And you can never trust those department store ladies because they will say anything to get you to buy their products.

Try putting concealer on first then. Usually people advise to do concealer last since foundation tends to rub off the concealer, but since you're having the reverse problem...

Or revise how you're putting on foundation/concealer in the first place. How are you applying it?

Well, I blot my concealer on under my eyes and on little blemishes.. then I add my foundation on with a foundation brush. Then set it with a powder.
I really think it is my makeup.. cause it NEVER stays on all day.. by the end of the day my face looks all oily and red.

It just sounds like you have oily skin and your makeup ain't staying. My concealer rarely stays and my face always looks crappy at the end of the day too. It's been better now that I use a powder foundation versus a liquid. Maybe try a foundation more suited for oily skin?

Bare Escentuals and face primer/finish (Smashbox).
I use a matte foundation...works too.

^ I hate Bare minerals! I used to use it. But I def need to get a primer.
Thanks for the help guys :) Once I get a little money, Im heading over to sephoras and getting a whole face set.

Who needs expensive eye shadows when others just look good as well...

I love Mac eye shadows but again I love to mix it up with other stuff =]

If you're looking to save money, maybe try Monistat as a face primer. It has the same active ingredient as the Smashbox Photo Finish primer.

ooh. which active ingredient is it?

Dimethicone

i like the cat eyes / wings effect with the eyeliner.
D:

i do too but i can't get it to work as well for me since im so un-steady

It all comes with lots of practice.

Has anybody tried the Too Faced Shadow Insurance? My UDPP is no longer liking me. I owe pics of my makeup, keke.

People say it's not much different that UDPP.

Mmm, yeah? I heard it's easier to blend our colors and isn't a pain in the ass to use. f*ck you genie bottle.
