    Lace up boots?

    Living in a fashion-restricted country can drive a girl to drink (well, not really, but frustration at the very least ;D) Can anyone send me some good sites (that ship to Ireland) that sell heeled ankle boots (they have to be heeled, and preferably not stiletto) also preferably with laces and...

    Do you even feel you're just cursed with bad luck? (Rant)...

    I just looked in my wallet and found out that the last bit of money I own (or rather owned - €150) has been stolen out of it, and more than that, I know by whom, and therefore I know that I can't get it back. Or rather, I'm assuming I know. I don't want to say anything definite but every logical...

    Show your stuff or let it be*...

    A requisite In The Gallery show-off ;D So now I'll begin my rant about this quad ; I don't understand how it can look so gorgeous yet have such absolutely terrible colour payoff. I mean really... I had to put on about 5 applications of the E/S for it to even show up, then it faded...

    Let's buy happiness*...

    Finally got around to playing with my Colour Crafted goodies (I missed out on the collection and Tish was lovely and amazing enough to CP for me about a week or so ago...!) For any who may have wondered why my makeup has stopped being as crazily dramatic as my initial FOTD's, it's cause I'm not...

    Making determined-to-be-straight hair curl?

    I lovvvve curly hair. Unfortunately, my hair is completely stick straight (thankyou Scandinavian heritage... hmmmph) and will not hold a curl. At all. I've even had it curled at the hairdressers and it falls out in 10 minutes and looks like a ratty hot mess. Any hints? I've tried rollers, heat...

    Contour recs for very pale skin?

    Hey hey hey... I always do my contouring with MAC Strada, but recently I've decided I want to look for another (and maybe better) shade. I loathe typical bronzing makeup, as I have no intention of making myself look darker... and all bronzers I find are a) not matte or b) way too orange. I'm a...

    I heard her screaming like a radio*...

    I'm on a roll! I ate blueberries and raspberries for my breakfast today... And then I did my makeup to match. ;D I realized after they were the colours that you tend to get when you get punched in the face, but... oh well! Haha... Face ; Illamasqua Light Liquid Foundation in 100, Studio Fix in...

    And not to pull your halo down*...

    I'm playing around with my brows again, and have made them thicker once more ;O I can't decide which I like better... What do you ladies think? My last FOTD (here) has the other version of my eyebrows in it. (Actually, I have about 4 brow versions, but no matter, seeing as 2 of them are kind of...

    Slightly more colourful today than I've been in a while!.. Got loads of new pretties from hauling on the weekend, so I had to try em out.. Got the 217, we are having issues in our relationship at the moment lol. It blends, but it removes my E/S no matter how lightly I blend. Grrr! Any help...

    Recommend me many a shade of MAC! ;D

    Hey all, I'm going to buy a lot of new E/S's, (and more..) I'm tired of having black eyes all the time! ;D So I thought I'd go to the experts for combos and beautiful pairings. I don't have enough time to go in and swatch a lot because my MAC counter is quite far away, so I like to go in...

    Select or Blot Powder?

    Hey y'all, Planning out some hauling and I'm looking for a basic powder to set my foundation with - I use foundation for everyday coverage, so pigmented powder on top looks a bit too heavy. I have Select in NC5, which has no colour payoff and it sets my makeup okay I suppose - I'm interested in...

    Light coloured L/S on pigmented lips?

    Any advice for how to get light coloured LS to show up on dark lips? ;/ I've got a handful of pretties like Lavender Whip and Snob, but I have to apply like 398450891 coats to get the colour to show up, even after putting a light L/P underneath like Subculture... and concealer just muddies the...

    Migraines and side effects..

    I suffer from horrible migraines about once a month, and I tend to get bizarre effects with and after them. I though I'd ask you ladies/gents on here because I don't trust doctors, every time I go to them about this they just tell me to take painkillers. ;( I've been trying to get help for this...
