    Upgrading Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 - lol!

    I thought this was great! Quote: Dear Tech Support, Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed a distinct slow down in overall system performance, particularly in the flower and jewelry applications, which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0. In addition...

    ***Natural Taupe Brown Look aka I haven't bought any new makeup in a while***

    I haven't really bought any new makeup in a while, except for a lipglass from Danse. So my looks are starting to get a bit "recycled". But I'm saving up money now for the brand spanking new apartment I got with my boyfriend and we're buying tons of new furniture so makeup is not at all on my...

    Pincurls for a retro look

    Does anyone have any good sites to see how to do pincurls correctly? The look a bit tricky to do! I've found this place but I'm looking for a good tutorial with guided instructions. I particularly am interested in a tut for long hair, not short hair...

    I have a serious disaffection for Orgasm...wtf

    OK don't get me wrong, I love the colour of this blush on my fair skin. However, I have a serious problem with Orgasm. The powder in the pan CONSTANTLY gets this hard top layer, like a film, and I can't take anymore product from the pan with my brush. I've scraped this layer off numerous times...

    Duochrome eyeshadows & pigments

    Is there a list somewhere available that says what all the duochrome eyeshadows and pigments are? I mean eyeshadows or pigments that reflect 2 colours, for example Blue Brown, or Expensive Pink or Club for example. The MAC website does not have that as a separate category. I think these are the...

    MAC Lipglasses - Are they getting smaller??

    Is it just me or are the MAC lipglasses getting smaller (ie the tube)? I bought Corps-de-Ballet yesterday from the Danse collection, it contains 4.8g (0.17 US Oz.) of product. I thought that was really small. Is the packaging getting smaller so as to give you less product for the same price...

    Jete (LE) vs. Expensive Pink e/s

    Are these 2 eyeshadows comparable? Or totally different? I'm thinking of picking up Jete from the Danse collection but I've been wanting Expensive Pink for a while too...Is it worth getting both or which one do you recommend on fair skin?

    Everyday Minerals shade recommendation

    What do you think would be a good shade for me in the Everyday Minerals line? I'm very fair. MAC foundations in the lightest NC15 are much too yellow on me. So anyone use EM and can recommend something? I was a Fairly Light in Bare Escentuals, if that helps, but I'm not sure the 2 cosmetic...

    Anyone used this line? I saw an infomerical on it, and I've never bought anything off an infomerical, but I saw the products at a department store and now I'm curious. Thoughts? http://www.samysalon.com/

    => Don't Steel my Blue! <=

    Hi girls. I've been away from Specktra for a bit, sorry, I've been really busy lately. Thought I'd make up for it with a FOTD using Steel Blue (which hasn't been getting nearly enough of my love lately.) Products I used for this look. Face: Revlon Skinlights Fluid in Neutral Light...

    IMPRESSIVE Make-up spotted on the Web!

    I'm not sure if I should post this in the FOTDs but I don't know what forum this should best go under, as it's directly related to makeup pics? Mods, feel free to move. Anyway: THIS IS NOT MY OWN FOTD! This is a look I spotted on the "Majestic Beauties" makeup group on Myspace, the user who...

    => Fireyes - Makeup & Hair FOTD <=

    I just purchased Flammable Paint. I'm in love! I'm so glad Specktra turned me onto this very underrated Paint. It's got a huge WOW factor and I think is also quite versatile! So here's what I did with it. Went out last night to a club to hear some awesome drum&bass, so I thought I'd glam it up...

    My new winter coat & Italian leather boots

    ***Variation of Blue-Brown Look for Winter***

    My blue brown pigment hasn't gotten enough love lately, so I decided to dig it out again and use it with a combination of Gold and forest green! This is what it looked like. Why yes, I AM pale as a ghost in winter. This is taken in daylight streaming through the window, no flash...

    Crazed & Exhibit A blush - question

    I really love both these blushes in the pan and I know they are very bright. Do you think they would be ok on a pale person? I'm NC15 in MAC. I do want a more intense look as I already have more "subtle" shades from MAC and also Orgasm from Nars. Please read on to end of thread: I got Crazed...

    ***Evanescence inspired***

    This look was inspired by the new Evanescence music video for "Call Me When You're Sober", mind you I did this on a whim just before going to bed so the look didn't last long before it was washed down the drain along with my cleanser suds. It's basically just Studio fix powder...

I have a full size of this because I loved the colour in the jar and when I rubbed a bit on the back of my hand, but somehow I can't get it to apply the same way on my eyes. I don't have this problem with any other pig. that I...
