    Barbie collection in Switzerland

    Will be available March 1st in the Bern store. The girl I spoke to on the phone said everything is very limited edition, they won't be getting in a lot of this collection so if you want to make sure you get stuff, try to get there asap. They will be receiving ALL the products from the...

    All Ages, All Races, All Sexes....o rly?

    I know this is what MAC always says it stands for, but since the last Icon collection with Raquel I'm a little bit skeptical. I mean, what 67 year old woman actually looks like this? I wish they'd do the promo pictures a little bit more age accurate, to refelect their words. It seems really...

    Goddess Blush & 169 Brush (Icon collection)

    What are your thoughts on these 2 products? As for the Goddess blush, is it really a "must have"? I already have Blushbaby, Pink Swoon, Nars Orgasm, and Blossoming Creamblush. So do you think I really need it? I'm very fair, for refernce, lighter than NC 15. I liked the look of Goddess but it...

    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...

    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...

    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...

    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...
