Bimbos unite!

I think the Hair collection sounds laaaaaaame either way u look at it. If its products aimed at people with certain hair colors...thats a little too drugstore for me. And if its hair products...well um lets see: I think thered be A LOT of returns. You cant walk into MAC and say "I have dry hair, can youuuuu wash my hair with this so i can see if it works"

UM NO! Thats soooo dumb. MAC, please stick with what you know. Which is makeup. I dunno if Id buy MAC haircare unless it was getting some serious raves.

And if I hear one more person say "oh it'll give the hairstylists an actual reason to use their pro card"...I may just go the f*ck off. A cosmetologist does more than just hair...and obviously MAC gives the card to cosmetologists for a reason. Grrr

And if "us hairstylists" arent worthy of a pro card, well thats fine. But good luck finding someone to cut, color, wash and blow dry ur hair.

I dunno, I usually cut my own hair...but yes, I agree that it's bull, saying that "now the hair people have a reason to use their Pro cards!".

 

[darkishstar]

I agree about the Hair collection!
Hair glitter is as far it should go honestly.

And I think from Red She Said.. probably a brush set, a eye palette (if there's a better one, they didn't show all of them), and a lip set at most for me. That's probably all I'll go for probably. I don't live close enough to a CCO to go for the stuff there.

 

[KikiB]

See I am pickier with lip stuff, so I might end up getting RSS lipstick. I love amplifieds and this will be right up my alley. I want to see the colour collection deets, because I could end up saving a LOT of money this Christmas.

 

[darkishstar]

Same here. I want to spend the least amount I can if possible.

 

[laperle]

Parky, you must look with purples, violets, lavenders and variations. Blues and green as well.

And the kirsch looks great on you! You're indeed the cover girl!


CAM, I think you're so voluptuous that you could use whatever you want. Ok, maybe not Beauty Marked, because I don't like that damn e/s! I tried to work it out today, again, but it keeps disappointing me.

 

[darkishstar]

I love purples and blues and greens.. I just haven't been wearing much make-up lately.

Hopefully that will change once school starts.

I vow to look good.

 

[KikiB]

I love my purples and blues and greens, but especially my purples. In a pinch, it's Beautiful Iris on the lid and Violet in the crease.

 

[laperle]

I need new purples and blues. The only purples I've got are from a Bourjois Trio, they're way too subtle, but the finish isn't bad. I want vibrant ones now and one dark sober for the V (I'm thinking of Poison Pen, as Smantha suggested).

A girls made a FOTD with the 92 by MUFE and that color is GORGEOUS. I was drooling.

As for blues, I know exactally what I want. Blues are very flattering on me.

 

[darkishstar]

Anyways... think I'm going to sleep. It's been a long day.
Good night everyone.

 

[laperle]

Parky, be strong. Think of your wonderful life ahead! Dream with the angels.

I know it won't really help right now, but it will help in a not so distant future.

And cry if you feel like crying. I read an article saying that crying activates substances to calm and relax us. :**

 

[KikiB]

So...bored...can't sleep...

One of my eyes has been uber-irritated for a few days now, and while I still can wear makeup (thank goodness, otherwise I would not be able to leave the house) it hurts to sleep, and it makes me want to rub it, which just makes it hurt even more. Yarr.

 

[gigglegirl]

yes RBella I saw your eye picture you posted for me! Thanks doll, but it has definitely not killed the lemming for clue. *sigh* thats just how its gonna have to be I guess

you rock girl!

hello to the rest of the bimbos! Yesterday was my first day of my "extra" class for my degree...and it was really annoying to trapse across the city out of work for 3 hours, then go back to work and make up the time. But I've decided to try and be more....talkative in the class (as usually I just sit and take notes) so I introduced myself first. Needless to say, my mom and boss were quite psyched to hear this about me. As sometimes I'm kinda shy, especially with people I don't know.

But I can say I was not impressed with my MAC Select SPF 15 foundation and how its so....water soluble? If I so much as touched my face in any respect, BAM I had some foundation on my fingers. Grrrrr and I even set my foundation (thinking maybe that was the problem).

This was my last foray into mac's foundations, and other than the studio stick in NW15, I think I'll have to stay away. B/c they discontinued my NW100 Hyperreal, that was a good one if I wanted a bit of shine. Oh wait, there is still the mineralize satinfinish.

But next I will definitely be trying MUFE after all the rave reviews from my fellow bimbos!

Question: why is there the hate on UD? Perhaps the insane glitter fallout that can be found on some of their shadows? I stick to the more sheeny ones, not glitter. So I love them.

Please explain yourselves, UD haters!

I'm in such a goofy mood, but I digress, I must head off to work. TTYL!

 

[Shadowy Lady]

good morning ladies

I wonder what everyone's time zone is that nobody is here when I login. It's 9:30 in the morning here in Ottawa, Canada. I should be working on a project report yet i'm updating my MAC spreadsheet and cheking out this site

I think I'm the only MAC lover on the planet who still doesn't have an e/s quad

....do you guys think I should pick something up from Cult of Cherry while I can?

P.S. Darkish, I hope you're feeling better today when you wake up **Off to the Relationship thread to read about it and comfort you**

 

[Krasevayadancer]

Saadeh- you NEED a quad, I personally collection them so I have about 15, maybe 20? Ugh, I am so addicted. Samantha can tell you! And I am up too, at work at the moment :-D

Elaine, i think you will feel better once you start school. Pretty yourself up(not that you need it cause you are just gorgeous) and knock em all out. Don't fret over the jerk-bag!

Mari- Poderosa, does that mean powerful? Will that be my new nickname?

Anita- Gde ti sivodnya kukalka?

Samantha- your boy is so silly. Getting into the shower with a dirty cage? Priceless!

Rbella- I have a feeling that once I get to the Mufe studio store I will be a goner.

If any of you have an interest in swatches or products only available at the store, pm me

I know the color selection is much more vast and they have palettes and such!

15-20 quads??? Maybe I should come shopping in your quad store

Which one do you recommend from Cult of Cherry?

Or Cranberry or something stupid like that? Yeah. But at least Cranberry would be a much better shadow than Beauty Marked to have.

Dude, I've totally done all of that myself several times.

But... I'm a weirdo. I've cut and coloured friends' hair before, too. And I love, love, loooooooove my hair dude Curtis. It took me forever to find someone I like! I have since pimped him out to friends.

I've never even bothered to swatch Beauty Marked. Velvets in general aren't a great texture, but I find I can work them. The thing is, though, all the velvets I own have a pretty colour that I like (such as Peppier <3333), and I don't really give a damn about the glitter as long as it is not on my cheeks. I'm sorry Beauty Marked is a jerk.

Look good, feel good. It totally works.

You're going to kick school's butt!

Oh, goodness, I'm dying to get MUFE's #92 some time. So amazing. Poison Pen is gorgeous for the crease because it's a matte2, and I find it works really well with a number of other colours. It doesn't blow me away as an individual swatch (which is likely why I went so long without it), but now that I've played with it several times for a full eye, I adore it. That and Lotusland, I'd say, are my surprisingly beloved MAC purple shadows.

I'm not a UD hater! Just... MUFE is better. I quite enjoy my two UD palettes, but it pisses me off that they don't work with paint. I don't have UDPP, don't want to require it to make the damn shadows stick. I find that over paint, the colours don't hold up, and if I try to blend them they seem to lift right off?? It's so uncool. I have other bases, yes, but paint is my favourite, hence the annoyance on that factor. And I will never, ever buy a glitter shadow from them on purpose.

Hey Sandwich!

I'm just an hour ahead of you, over in Halifax. Today's my day off and I had the BEST NIGHT's sleep I've had in WEEKS. Hot damn! The quads are addictive. The CoC ones are gorgeous. Plus, it's actually a pretty good deal product to price wise, when you think about buying the shadows individually. 4 x $13/pan + $4.50 for the quad = 56.50$. Compare to $43. Really good for travelling somewhere with you, too.

As for the Cult of Cherry quads, i find it hard to pick just one. I have and adore all three. I suppose it really depends on your personal preferences... Shadowy Lady is really pretty if you're a purple fan, Tempting is beautiful and has the surprising chartreuse pop, and Spiced Chocolate is really rich and flexible. Go get at least one (providing budget allows, of course), see if you give it lots of love.

Dude, I'm so catching up to you on the quad thing. Once my Take Wing and Stowaways get here, I'll have twelve! And you know how shortly ago I had none. By my count, you've got to have at least 19 (if that one you bought from lj showed up)? You'll have to count when you get home, see how close I got.

My boy is hilarious. I was so entertained by his cage-cleaning antics. He didn't even understand.

As for MUFE, you know you need to swatch the red and red-family shadows for everyone here to drool over.

 

[Sanayhs]

Rebecca,

I have wanted another piercing for months. I've just put it off and put it off. I know I've had it for less than 24 hours, but so far I'm really glad I got my industrial. Some people have really bad swelling with cartilage piercings (keep this in mind, k?), but mine has just a teeny bit of swelling on ridge of my ear. Extremely minimal. And, it doesn't hurt at all!

I will avoid infection because I am neurotic about keeping new piercings clean. Infections suck. Also, the body by nature doesn't like piercings, and you don't want it to start moving shit around, trying to reject it (this is why I don't have any surface piercings, the odds of rejection are too high for my liking, plus even after fully healed? One bump and the rejection process can start over again).

Keep in mind that you should not sleep on that ear or put a phone against the piercing for about a month, until it has time to properly close up, and that it will require cleaning for that month at least twice daily. If this is all still good with you, why are you putting it off?

I really want to visit Halifax, it's on my list Canadian cities to see before I'm 30. Is the seafood there as good as I hear it is?

The quad price is definitely right. I think i'll get more use out of Shadowy Lady quad, I love purples and the quad has the same screen name as me

This is yet another lunch hour I will be spening at the mall to pick up more MAC. It's also gonna be my 4th CoC haul

Mmmmm, seafood. <333

Woooo CoC! You should definitely get Shadowy Lady, then.

You'll have to let us know how you like it!
