Tom Ford Beauty Discussion

[ashievic]

I'm so glad you're doing well Yazmin. This is no walk in the park as they say. Knowing what we can and cannot tolerate seems to
work for both of us.

I'm much more immunologically sensitive it seems---it cost me a 6-month hospitalization, coma and life support. I take no risks.
El Hubs says my job is staying well. He never wants to go through that again, nor do I. I just pay close attention to my limitations,
go to the dentist every 3 months and live within minutes of our hospital and my specialists, whom I also see every 3 months.

That's so scary Meddy! Your husband is 100% correct- staying well should be your number one priority. (With a make-up enthusiasm close behind!)

When I am sent into a hospice setting. I always helped the ladies brush their hair, a touch of blush and a dap of lipstick. Or a nursing home. It would bring bring a smile and just a smidgen of normal to them.

I'm afraid eventually I'm going to need to get those too! Which ones did you get Meddy?

Do not be afraid, you are not alone. Mr. Ford will keep your face beautiful.

heeeeey laaaydeeez!! again im still around waiting on the next big thing to STRIKE lol. scared to venture off into the abyss of TF brushes for now until i complete my lip collection at least lol BUUUUUUT whats the top brush to grab like if u could only get ONE????

 

[ashievic]

I agree, kinda....I would go for the cream foundation, check, and bronzer in that order. Since the bronzer to me is kind of a one trick pony. As in using bronzer or setting powder. The others are more multi taskers. At least for me.

Ooooo what would you say that the cheek was used for then ? I mean as you had mentioned this as a multi takd x

The cheek can be used obviously for blush, as well as for bronzer, setting powder, buffing out blush/contour. The same for cream foundation brush. It is super for blush or highlighting the cheek bone area. For fast touch ups or setting powder in the T zone. The bronzer is HUGE. Lovely brush, unless your face is huge it really is only for bronzer and setting powder.

cream foundation if you looking for a face brush. The eye brushes, the smokey eye brush if you are into smokey eyes. This also works as a super eyeliner brush too. As well as the water line for shadow.

Absolutely. They feel human again---seemingly gives them a little burst of energy. That was a sweet thing to do Ash.

Hey Kiki!!! Good to see you!!! I have the cream foundation brush but I'm in lurv w/the cheek/blush brush. Think about what you personally would get the most use out of though.

NARS smudge proof eyeshadow base. I love it so much more than any eyelid primer I've tried before. 

Thank I'll try this one too. It's now on my list! There has to be a primer out there for me.

Wow, your system is definitely more sensitive and susceptible. Right now I'm dealing with the Mylar rash that won't go away -- 5 months and counting.

If you decide to let it go, please let me know! I would definitely buy it off you. I am always in your clearance bin drooling. I need to stop! lol

LOL! I had set it aside a bit ago. Let me look for it over the weekend and I'll send you a PM.

Geez that's a long time Yazmin---I'm so sorry you're going through that!!! Is this the first time you've had it or just the longest interval that you've had to deal with it.?

Used the light shade from Raw Jade with Gucci Agate eyeshadow duo today. I thought it would be close to one of the shades from Dior Blue Lagoon but the effect is different enough lol I'm not drawn strongly to any of his other palettes but those cream/powder duos are aces in my book

Wow brill Hun

Yes, Meddy just rocks!!!! Didn't you say you are coming to the States at some point? If yes, please consider reaching out to St. Jude's Children's Hospital. They do not charge for the care of the child. They do take children from other countries. Please consider reaching out to them now. Perhaps they would be willing to see your little one? I have worked there, and it is incredible for all that they do.

Hi Hun thanks for kind words just seen this Yer it's not def that we are going to states Hun if we are we flying to orlando His not sick sick I wouldn't class him as being badly sick There's other little children whom are very sick and whom arnt going to make it Poor little things That would be a good idea to go there His condition only get worse if have it when adult ( like just get it when adult ) Or if he doesn't grow out of it before his 16 Then it cause a whole load of orobs I cross that bridge when and if we have to deal with that Me n hubby are hoping the lesions will just go they have got better since his born I found old pics on laptop other day

The redness has gone on that one above and marking still there and comes up red but not as bad as that And the one that's fluidly that's the fluid had gone but still there badly But was told the fluid stuff can come back when it's rubbed aggravated Anyhow seeing these pics to what they are now Has made me n hubby feel bit relaxed and calm over it thinking they may just go soon being his nearly four And this was when he was born etc So fingers crossed it all goes xx

I also have really long lashes, so I get the feather look on the hood along with the 1/2 circle of liner too on the hood. Q-tips, a gift to all hoodies!!!

Hi Hun thanks for kind words just seen this

His not sick sick I wouldn't class him as being badly sick
There's other little children whom are very sick and whom arnt going to make it
Poor little things

That would be a good idea to go there

His condition only get worse if have it when adult ( like just get it when adult )
Or if he doesn't grow out of it before his 16
Then it cause a whole load of orobs
I cross that bridge when and if we have to deal with that
Me n hubby are hoping the lesions will just go

they have got better since his born I found old pics on laptop other day



The redness has gone on that one above and marking still there and comes up red but not as bad as that
And the one that's fluidly that's the fluid had gone but still there badly
But was told the fluid stuff can come back when it's rubbed aggravated

Call St. Jude's, it is just not for dying children. Chop-chop....
