Thank you ladies - good news, it is not a tumor or cancer! We still don't know what it is but at least it is not worst case scenario.
That's such a relief! I'm glad.

Ok, so I went to the NARS counter again. I bought an entire makeup look that they put on me the other day. And some of their purifying foaming face wash, which I LOVE. That combined with their makeup removing water means ALL the makeup gets removed from my face! I was having problems getting all of it off with my old cleanser.

I have so much new makeup and brushes! My haul this month was HUGE.

Has anyone tried the Laura Mercier Kajal liner? I was going to skip it but I saw it today and swatched it on my hand. I thought it would be like the Guerlain one I have and never use. I wasn't even sure it was black so I asked the SA and he said it was black. I wondered if it was shimmery. He said no but it has a wet look and should only be used on the upper lash line. I was quite intrigued. Now I want it, the eye palette and at least 3 of the lipsticks. Yikes! I wasn't even thinking about this collection before today and now its moved to the top of my list. Off to look for swatches.

Thanks doll! It's carnival/festival season here for us this weekend so everyone is the party mood. I'm not doing too much but my church is having a fun day on Monday so that'll be the highlight of the weekend for me. We're having some friends over for Sunday lunch tomorrow as well so that'll be good too! Any plans for you this weekend. I hope you guys start getting good news and get everything sorted so they can just focus on recovery!!

That is definitely great news!! Hopefully everything else starts looking up for you soon!
Sounds like fun shars. Enjoy your weekend.

My plans consist of making a big batch of pozole (done), eating said pozole w/ family (done)lol & loving up my pups (done).
My chi had 6 puppies about 3 weeks ago.
They have lined up a few procedures. My moms been crying a lot because of it.
Of course that means everything we have done for the heart surgery, will become outdated by the time we are finished & she will have to do it all over again

I have a lot of new makeup to try. I ended up grabbing Echo, Santa Sangre, Nosferatu and Exorcism in the new kvd lippies and I was on vacation in Vegas so I stopped by a cco and grabbed a Bobbi brown shimmer brick, Mac strobe liquid, moth pressed pigment and full of joy blush. I also picked up the glam glow set from Nordstrom and tried on the blue mask treatment last night and my face is so soft this morning wow, also grabbed the bite Opal lipstick and I had several $10 off a purchase coupons from urban decay's holiday promo last year so I was able to grab matte blackmail lipstick, rapture blush, a build your own palette and shockwave moon dust shadow all for only $40 when they had free shipping not too long ago.

My second MAC Look In A Box set is coming today. I already have makeup on so I'll wait until tomorrow to try it. But you KNOW I'm gonna swatch it.

My NARS and MAC haul this month was huge. HUGE. I bought the purifying foam cleanser from NARS, got a free gift with extra large samples of their hydrating toner, and bought their replenishing moisture cream, optimal brightening concentrate.Plus their eyeshadow primer, three eyeshadows, a brow pencil, two liquid eyeliners, lip liner, lipstick, makeup removing water, eye makeup remover. My MAC haul includes Natural radiance primer, pro longwear powder, strawberry blonde brow pencil, three lipsticks (plus a lipstick I got for B2M), two brush sets, two full size brushes (blush brush and domed blending brush), brush cleaner and two look in a box palettes.

Um. I promised my boyfriend I wouldn't buy anymore makeup until Christmas. But he didn't believe me!

Oh! And Nordstrom gave me a free gift for spending so much...it was a "surprise" gift. Turned out to be a full size bottle of Prada Infusion D'Iris

I managed to snag a Pleasurebomb off the CB! It was one of only two RiRi lipsticks I had really wished I hadn't missed and I'm so glad I have it now. It is SO beautiful. I was afraid it might pull too cool toned (I've discovered that I feel clownish in pinks that lean too blue, ie Flat Out Fabulous and Good Kisser) but it's got enough red in it that I can pull it off.

Awesome! I've always been kind of sad about missing PB too. Congrats on finding it!

Wonderful. Pleasurebomb is such a beautiful color. Enjoy!

I gave two away. I wish I had known you wanted one. I hope you can snag one soon. Good luck.

I went a little nuts today with the spending! I got: Royally Riotous How Tropical Pillow Talk Stone Lip Pencil Lancome Teint Idole Ultra 24HR in 100 Ivoire N* Strobe Cream *I had this before but the color match was wrong. I love, love, love this formula.

*I had this before but the color match was wrong. I love, love, love this formula. You and me both! I just got another NARS haul.

Just got my makeup done at the NARS counter and bought all the stuff they put on my eyes. We did a dramatic smokey eye a la Taylor Momson. Dual intensity eyeshadow was used in Sycorax over a velvet shadow stick in Filibuste. And kohl eyeliner plus Audacious mascara (although I didn't buy the mascara since I have a deluxe sample). I also got some loose powder in Snow.

Love it! The new formula for the Shadow sticks are really impressive! @Crimsonquill Hope you're doing okay and I'm glad to hear about your dad and that it's not worst case scenario :hug: thinking of you girlie. I'm sorry I've been so MIA lately, definitely missed you all Just been dealing with a lot on my plate, nothing bad. I feel like I'm so behind in the beauty world lol.

Hey ladies!

Does anyone have experience with the Mineralize Moisture foundation? I liked it in store and they make my color (NW13), so I bought it. I've tried it with 3 brushes and a beauty blender and still can't get it to look good. It look oily, streaky, and refuses to cover anything. I thought I'd love it since my SFF can dry my skin out, but this just isn't working. I might take it back even though I really hate returning makeup.
