I suffer from really bad Insomnia so I'm usually up at ridiculous times with you guys and I am always loling at the crazy stuff you guys post.

No insomnia here. I just like the darkness.

I agree, for the most part, but I have seen some comments and remarks made that have made my eyebrows shoot up... and they weren't even directed at me. But at the end of the day, we're all here for the makeup fun!

Thise were probably from me. What can i say? I'm snarky.

true too... remember this is the internet.  All sorts of people get on here.  Use eyebrow gel on those eyebrows and don't get shocked at anything.. just have fun.

:lmao:

Your super sweet but I really like how red lipstick looks on very light skin. Plus I would like to be all one color because I have dark spots on my cheeks

You just gotta find the right red for your skintone. Embrace the colour you were born with!

The only scrub I use is the St.Ives apricot scrub I use this daily

Ooooh please don't use that scrub! That is the WORST scrub ever! It really needs to be taken off the market. The edgets of the apricot shell are sharp and jagged and actually tear your skin, doing so much more damage, and no good at all. :nope:

If I were you, I would try to switch to a scrub that is a little more gentle on the skin. The St. Ives is very harsh and can cause damage, especially if you are using it daily.

Agreed. It shouldn't be used period!

I honestly have to wonder if trendtroll herself isn't behind this particular IG. To much buttkissin goin on for me to believe otherwise. And that is just sad and pitiful if it's true.

And they're mentioning it was taken down. That's interesting cuz i thought it was hacked??? :lol:

Oh my gosh, I just had to skip over a bunch of new posts because I can't read them all before new ones are posted!

I'm so happy for you guys, a majority of you got all that you wanted, and some even got money off (ebates)! Lol, I still only own the Mystical lipstick, which I love, and I think it was a very smart decision for me, despite my lusting after AS, GOTs, SMHM, and Lorelei (plus face brush??). I'll visit the store, or see if I can preview it, like I was able to do during the Indulge collection. Gotta make wise decisions, because I have tons of makeup that need to be loved

The products do seem very beautiful for a glow during the summer months, though -- decisions, decisions!

I'm right there with you. lol xP

I know I am kinda late to the party but just wanted to share this pic of my cute doggie sleeping right now I love him so much!!

Oh also, I've definitely been keeping up with the erratic turns in conversation!

Oh my gosh! You guys are hilarious! From socks, to hot guys and soup, to cats and dogs, to everything else, I can tell that you guys are so fun to be around! I need to go back and catch up!

I am kicking myself for missing Enchanted One. I've never been big into nudes, it's been all about the vampy lips for me, and now that it's turned warm... I want some nice nudes. And this one is looking quite gorg.

I did search the thread and saw a close dupe, Revlon Mauve it Over. I guess I will be heading to the drugstore to pick that up to satisfy my lemming lol. And pray for a restock!

Managed to grab Siren Song when it went up on MAC and picked up Goddess of the Sea from Nordstrom this afternoon. So pleased! I was unsure about SS but when my box came it, it was fantastic.

And im selling delphic to my friend who missed out lol

Agree with @erine1881 I really like MAC Volcanic Ash Exfoliator. Also, Philosophy Microdelivery Scrub is nice but I think the MAC is gentler on my skin and just as effective. I think over the past few years MAC has given more thought to skin care. I watch those MAC artist videos where they prep skin b/f makeup and I've picked up a few things that are in my daily rotation. The exfoliator really is very, very, very good, to me it's worth every penny.

Agreed. I signed on last night during the Nordstrom stalk but no way could I keep up. I won't have time to go back, but it was fun to see.

Also want to thank everyone on the thread who posts swatches and thoughts, including @Mac-Guy and all the international specktrettes and peeps who get their black boxes and reach for a camera as they try everything. Shipping is so slow for me and I can't get to a store this week at all (on the road). I know that I'd miss out on fast-selling items without you all. Also, I'm sure I would have bought things that don't work for my skin tone, wasting time/money. Awesome people here!!

Hopefully I uploaded these two pics correctly ... found them on IG. Posted about an hour ago. Someone bashing Specktra and praising trendmood. Will ppl ever learn?

I have to try that VAE! Ever since Temptalia and other people had been so lyrical for it, I had wanted it, but I should definitely go out and get it since it's perm now. I have the Philosophy scrub, and I love it, but I like to have variation
