What do counters (MAC or otherwise) expect their employees to have for experience? Like, just doing amazing make-up on themselves and friends. Or do they expect you to have completed classes, art school, or anything of that sort.

After reading this article about a man who burnt his books because he couldn't even give them away (I'm stuck in friggen Heathrow airport, flight was cancelled) and I got to thinking about how little we're reading because of time, school, work, etc.. The article says: Wayne began burning his...

I know this might sound unreasonable, but could someone help me with finding a brush to get the "cat eyes" effect of Milla's eye make-up as seen below? I think it looks extremely well blended into the browbone and just really soft on the edges. I was going to buy Fertile e/s for this look, but...

I really want to buy a stick foundation... what brand/color is extremely light, and can be used on dry skin without looking chalky? I'm hoping a stick would be easier than taking my MAC Mineralize Foundaiton through the airport.

I traded my pencil that I got today (since the brown looked too red on me, thanks black hair) for my mother's Point Black Liquidlast she bought. How the hell does this stuff come off?! I've tried an oil based, a rinse off, and good ol' face soap but nothing's working. There's still remnants of...

I can still feel the make-up on my face. Argh! It took a heckuva lot of powder to get this pale. I came in first for live action character, and fifth for single kareoke (to Spice Girl's "The Lady is a Vamp"). Figures. I used a disposeable camera at the convention so I'll scan in pics when I...

When you travel, what make-up do you bring with you? What stuff do you ALWAYS leave at home? (note: not just stuff in your purse, like if you're going away for a few days I mean) Also... anyone have tips for packing make-up? My stupid Chromozone 3 quad broke inside my luggage despite being...

I went into MAC in my Selene costume since I had to go to the first judging in two hours. Bought stuff, didn't want them to do my mu because making myself look undead took too long and none of their stuff was pale enough for even a finishing powder. Oh well. Anyways... bought my first pigment...

I've been walking around a convention center (an anime con) dressed like a werewolf slaying vampire for the past two days. Complete with PVC catsuit, trench, corset, boots and fangs (Selene from "Underworld"... I love bad action movies). Okay... being "dressed to kill" does not mean you can...

So bored tonight. If I hear "Simple and Clean" one more time I'll snap. Got inspired by this pic of Ayumi Hamasaki in "Whatever": Moi: Face: Wet 'n' Wild Shimmer in St. Tropez MAC Mineralize Foundation NC15 MAC Studio Cover-Up in NC15 MAC Natural Skinfinish in Light Lips: Bare...

I've spent most of today in a convention center, wearing a PVC catsuit + pleather corset + pleather trench + leather boots. It sooo wasn't meant for Southern weather. I have to wear it for another two days, until the final judging. (I'm supposed to be Selene from Underworld... people keep...

Last band concert EVER tonight XDDDD I hate band: hate, hate, hate it. I play contra alto clarinet in the key of E-flat (it's like a baritone sax sound but looks like a giant bass clarinet). Never playing it again, never wearing this stupid dress again XD Had to see the stupid bitch who I got...

What's everyone doing for summer? Any special plans? ---- We're moving to Oslo, Norway so that should take awhile. Going on a trip to Paris with some friends in June (it's my graduation gift) which should be awesome. Never really toured Paris, just seen the airports :P Other than that...

Sipping on a skinny, venti, vanilla latte while reading Lost Souls by Poppy Z. Brite and wanted to put on red lipstick really badly. Don't ask. The thread title is after what it says on the back of the book. Face: MAC Mineralize Foundation in NC15 MAC Mineralize Natural Skin Finish in Light MAC...

What's the best product(s) to use to get flesh colored, almost completely blends in with your natural skin color lips? I just don't want to use concealer or foundation because I find them drying. (NC15, btw)

What paint or shadow gives a good, natural no make up look to eyes but still covers slight redness/veins? Nothing that looks too unnatural (i.e. matte or satin). I'm NC15, btw.

What films do you think have some of the best make-up? And do you notice the make-up before other things in the film (like, I don't know... plot)? My friends must think I'm the biggest loser ever... we watched Curse of the Golden Flower, and The Devil Wears Prada. Both movies have such friggen...

I went to get colormatched today, and my skincolor is different... again. Great help with finding a good foundation and I'm now in love with the Mineralize Satinfinish foundation <3 Here's my product: Mineralize Satinfinish Foundation -NC15 Mineralize Skinfinish Natural - Light Fluidline -...

I love the lipstick that Kate Beckinsale wears throughout the movie Underworld (<terribly, horribly made movie about vampires... but good lipstick ). What color lipstick looks like the one she's wearing? MAC or otherwise.

What do you think of Don't Date Him Girl. Com ? I'm just surfing through profiles of the men, and while I think that girls totally have the right to bitch on how much their ex's suck I just dunno of if the site is fair or not. Overall it's a good site, but the extreme "don't date him" sentiment...
