Aww. Yes, I have got the whole accent. it does not seem to ever go away.
I'm from a small town in south western VA (VA Tech area) and when I lived in DC everyone gave me crap for my accent. In Portland, OR, however, they love it. I get free drinks and people begging me to say something in my sexy drawl. I even caught a cute boy from Chicago with this accent ;) I think the accent's gotten stronger out here.

That's so funny, I live about 30 minutes from VA Tech. I don't think I have a strong accent and I have lived in VA my entire life. My boyfriend is from New Jersey and he only makes fun of me for a few words (five and bye would be examples lol).

Those are my words too. Add in "nine". I never thought it was strong, but everyone else does. Who knows??? I thought I didn't have an accent, but in DC or here in Portland, everyone comments on it. Especially here. I'm always being asked where I'm from. Like they can't figure out the accent, but know I'm not a local.

Also, cool to find someone from Southwest VA

Hi Neighbor!!
I love Radford! I took an Appalachian Literature course there last year and it was amazing. I almost transferred schools after that so I could major in Appalachian Studies.

Lustres make my lips super dry........but I love Cremesheens all though they settle into my lines.
I prefer mattes though. I still use both cremesheens and lustres my problem with lustres is the fact they kinda get goopy on me. They are high maintenance, unless they are a nude shade.

I like to have a variety of finishes, depending on the look I'm going for and how my lips are behaving. I think my preference changes a lot a lot on whim, though. Actually, I was on a matte kick all winter even when my lips were dry. I just tried to keep them moisturized and exfoliated as best as I could.

I love mattes too, I just make sure I but a lip balm first.......With lustres I can't do that, it's like putting gloss over gloss IMO.

I recommend checking out Beautypedia.com. You can search individually by brand name or by product type. Some people get tweaked that she has her own brand and, of course, rates it highly, but she rates plenty of other products highly, too. The reviews are based on ingredients. She has a list of Best Products arranged by category. In each category they can run the gamut from really inexpensive to expensive. That way you can find things in your own price range and test them on yourself.

I tend to ignore the makeup reviews, since she's very conservative about color (she's into neutrals) and finish (she's into mattes), and i am not - i like a riot of colors and i'm not afraid of sparkle. But i do trust the skin care reviews.

I have all different kinds of finishes lol my lips never behave. I usually just go based off color when picking what to wear..however lol when a collection like this comes out I am more inclined to buy mattes lol

Agreed, the era of the "grand MSF" is over. It has been over for quite a while, at least in my books. For me, it stopped after the MSF with the nipples :)
Ooof, I haven't been around to catch up on this thread but Mac-Guy, I am shocked, SHOCKED :p

Last year, there were some of the most glorious MSFs of them all: Adored, Centre of Attention, Scene to be Seen and Rio. So smooth, such beautiful colors and versatility, all with a touch of pure fantasy. CoA is the only MSF I've ever bought 2 of. It's right up there with my beloved Elude. Most weren't terribly NW friendly…I will grant you that. I'm with you on the nipples though - that was a heck of a collection of MSFs. Only Rose Quartz was yech to me.

I'll also agree the ones this year have been super plain. Even the EDSFs were pretty, but very workaday. 2014 hasn't been the year of the powder of any kind - hasn't even been much of a year for blush so far. This is the drawback of the minimalist makeup trend. The good thing is, once the backlash hits, I am hoping for a year of some really off the wall products - duochrome everything, frost everything, glitter everything.

As for this collection, I really am not feeling it. One or two of Kelly's lipsticks, possibly Sharon's new Patentpolishes if they're perfect for me, possibly a blush if it isn't powdery and that's it. I don't get the hysteria for this one at all.
