i don't actually do a lot of make up - to me, though, lip gloss and eye liner are musts. i kind of waffle between Kevyn Aucoin's percision liner and Lancome Artliner - thing is, while i really love them, i tend to lose things a lot and at $30+ a pop it's an expensive thing to leave laying on a counter somewhere - anyone have any suggestions for a good liquid eyeliner that's a little more cost friendly? how are the urban decay ones? haven't tried them - heard mixed things about the brush on them, tho...

I love NARS lip glosses. They are a little on the expensive side but so worth it! I have the last red one on here and it just lasts forever! Gorgeous shine and creates a fabulous full pout!




you should give the Urban Decay Lip Junkie a try. it's a little cheaper, it's cruelty free and vegan (something i'm being very vigilant about anymore) and it's long lasting. they have a great range of colors; brights, neutrals, and even some very dark, and it's got a little bit of mint zing to it. this has been my go to recently, and i'm pretty sure i'm not going to switch unless something really better comes along. i go with crush, jilted, trashed, obsessed, and peroxide, my one concession to needing a more neutral color. i like that it doesn't get icky if you wear it too long.

just ordered $70 dollars worth of a-england dragon, princess sabra, order of the garter, she walks in beauty and a top and base coat (we actually really needed these). i wanted the briar rose too, but i didn't get it cause i'm disciplined like that. smile
btw, since we're talking hair... sadly it's seasonal, but i usually stock up around the holidays - it's a shower gel, but it works great as a shampoo, and i love the smell, sort of bubbly gummy AND it's by Lush biggrin Snow Fairy is my signature scent for those curious - i love all of the Lush products, really, but yeah, i'm obsessive about the fairy

a-England pink/gold glitter called 'She Walks in Beauty'.

This is the actual look of the glitter shade and will go opaque in 2-3 coats.



Or stunning as layered over another shade or even to do a gradient tip mani.



i hate you. no, seriously.
she has exquisite taste, is smart, colorful, fun, and sweet. and yes, i got all that from her profile. smile

I have a Gelish manicure in this pretty turquoise:


What is Gelish, you ask? Gelish is a soak-off nail varnish for your nails. Kind of like Shellac, but Shellac is a super polish and Gelish is a gel. Think nail gel in a polish bottle. It lasts for approximately 2 weeks (usually longer, with respect to how 'active' you are) with no chipping, fading, and your nails THRIVE underneath. Once you soak it off, you'll be pleasantly surprised with how healthy your real nails look.


unless your obbsessive like me and tend to change colors every 3-4 days lol smile
right now mine is kind of short - i had a bad day with scissors... so i really can't do too much with it. used to be i'd i'd tie it back in a pony tail or just let it fall naturally. i love braiding other peoples hair but rarely do my own. i have a strange relationship with my hair, admittedly...
squee! this is adorable and so me AND it's something i could probably do freehand without too much fuss...



i'm thinking going with the pixie dust destiny and godiva tho... and don't tell anyone, but i'm going to order the other pixie dust collection AND the fall one... i blame Doll (btw, it's better then spending my money on drugs, right? biggrin)
Just what it says, people, although i'm going to cheat a bit. Soon as i get a few posts in i'm going to take a break and re-do mine. yes, i am obsessing - these things happen. it makes me happy and feel girly and i get to bond about it with some of my favorite people here. today i'm going to be a one color girl and it's going to be Midori by Zoya:

seriously, i wouldn't mind dressing up like this on occasion smile

i think this might be the most awesome-est comment in the entire history of the universe ever.


i think you just became my favorite person ever!
currently, i have 5 pair of chucks, one black, one hot pink, dr suess ones, all star hearts ones and DC comics ones
just what it says - a thread just for chucks/converse sneakers - i haven't been without at least 3 pair in my closet since i started wearing shoes - when i was bouncing between places i still had two extra pair in my pack. really, man or woman, most of us have worn, loved, and lived chucks at some point in our life!

AND they even have a design your own pair on their website! here's mine!



i like kind of funky things. i do a lot of thrift store shopping, i go for bright colors, odd ball stuff. i was a raver for a while and still have some rave-esque fashions. i think i would have made a good hippie, too... about a year ago i blundered into steam punk, or rather, steam punk as imagined by Kato, a fashion designer who makes her own stuff and models it as well - you should check out her face book page or go to her webiste...

http://www.steampunkcouture.com/

i can't even explain why i love some these fashions, but they are so whimsical and fun and unique. some of my favorties:

“5 FREE” NAIL POLISHES

No Dibutyl Phthalate, Toluene, Formaldehyde, Formaldehyde Resin, and Camphor

Chanel, Dashing Diva, Dior, Givenchy, Hopscotch Kids, L’Oreal, Nubar, Revlon, RGB, Scotch Naturals, Uslu Airlines, Zoya


One of the things to note - Seche Vite (the much touted polish top coat that everyone loves to death is NOT 3-Free and in fact does not work well with 3-Free polishes (it has the tendency to shrink the polish on your nail during drying and may cause chipping sooner than it should). Something to consider. For top/base coats I like Zoya's system but I've also used SpaRitual and OPI top coat with good results too.


ginger + liz is also a wonderful 5 free polish AND vegan smile



Bitch fit - never leave home without it smile
re: 5 free - "ginger + liz" is also a wonderful vegan polish, if you're curious about checking out the really good stuff. smile
totally cute - i'm having trouble staying away from zappos today

i am a bit on the short side, so anything i'm going to lust over is going to have serious heel (exception: i love my sneakers too). and boots... i will never own these (they're versace, for god's sake) but it's nice to imagine smile

btw, they need to do a lemon yellow and name it Lizzy.
Doll exposed me to Zoya recently. i was looking for some vegan friendly polishes (yes, there IS such a thing!) and she suggested the pixie dust collection knowing my love of all things glittery. thing is, like she said, sometimes the textured polished tend to be sand-papery or rough, so i took a little convincing, but yeah, i really like them. i, or should i say we (one of the advantages of being in a lesbian relationship is i get to share stuff with my wife) with the Pixie dust Summer collection - 6 colors for only $45, a great deal - it comes with Beatrix (orange) Solange (yellow-gold) Destiny (orange-red) Liberty (blue) miranda (rose pink) and Stevie (lavender). no green, but i'll get to that later. i LOVE the colors - they super glittery, they look amazing in sunlight and their mood changed in other lights. they mix well, go on smooth, and they're durable - they've certainly lasted longer then i have - i tend to change colors every 2-3 days...

anyways, easy to mail order through Amazon - we had to do a bit of travel to find a good retailer who carries them in the Seattle area - not talking road trip or anything, but yeah, it wasn't the corner store - that all said, when we did... 150 later... as Doll said, Dahlia, the black, is a must. they also have a really pretty white (godiva) something else i don't normally do. trixie is silver, goldie is gold... we got several shades of green and blue, a pink, red, i think there was a dark brown-coppery one that my wife took possession of immediately and i haven't seen since... i am not usually big on black polish but the Dahlia is amazing - it's the glitter - must be seen to be believed. i find myself looking forward to a reason to wear it to out and show it off, quite honestly. the metallics (gold and silver) are also quite beautiful. i think, tho, if i was to pick a current favorite it would be the Tallulah which is described as: Medium electric cobalt blue with fine bright aqua shimmer. it's just really pretty. of course, that is subject to change.

tallulah:

the picture really doesn't do it justice.
