Disposable?!?! Not even!!! I cannot recall ever throwing a cosmetic out (with the exception of mascara that I've used up). I just haven't ever used anything up.

I love new haircuts, too! I got mine done right before labor day - new bangs and the wedge cut (my MIL thinks I look a little like Katie Holmes with this cut). I'm having a dickens of a time getting it to style, though. So much for low-maintenence.

You'll have to get a picture up for us to see!

Isn't it liberating?! I did the same in April, but I'm now in the process of growing it back. Apparently, wavy hair is much easier when it's long!

Yes, I know, but in a country where a large part of the population starves and lives in misery, it's understandable to see these things as 'disposable'. They try to have importation priorities, to balance the economy. Books don't get such heavy taxes, for example.

It sucks, anyway, 'cos I can't help loving cosmetics.

I've thrown out some old, crappy cosmetics, and mascara before it's used up because it was kind of old (4 months, maybe? ha).

I looooove the new haircut feel. Do you go anywhere specifically?

 

[purrtykitty]

That's true, I guess. I does definitely suck when cosmetics are your downfall. Heck, even with the prices here, I still spend an arm and a leg on my habit.

I'm looking towards getting more purples even though I know MAC purples aren't as amazing as they could be... The next thing I'll purchase is a very deep, matte red l/s. If MAC doesn't have what I'm looking for, I'm thinking NARS will. Suggestion? Hopefully, once I get it, I'll do a really glam, vampy-red lip FOTD. Who knows?... Does anyone like to just sit in front of the TV and watch the makeup specials on QVC with no intention of buying anything?! I do...

Kensita, if you don't like MAC's or NARS', there's always Lancôme and Shiseido. I have a nice one by Clinique too, it's almost wine, feels great on the lips.

^^^ Lancome never really catches my eye, but I do like Shiseido's lip stuff. Thanks!



I have the problem where I can't throw ANYTHING away, including makeup.
It's like throwing your baby in the garbage just because it's old, cheap, or smells bad. :'(

I go to From the Neck up in Park Vic. i went to high school with my stylist.

 

[Sanayhs]

Babies don't tend to be old, you know. Just sayin'.

What, could you not throw out year-old mascara?

Also, my cat is eating lettuce.

You still haven't shown us pictures from the wedding!

Ugh, Park Vic. I would never, ever live there. So noisy and expensive!

I go to Sykea on Spring Garden. A few years back, I got offered their package deal of a haircut/few foils/mani/pedi for $50, and I loved the guy who did my hair and have been going back since!

Are these bad reasons to throw out a baby? (j/k)

If it is just makeup I'll never use, didn't work out, sometimes I'll take it in to work and see if anyone wants it. If it is old, separated, smells rancid etc it's getting chucked.

Kensita, are you a taurus or a cancer??


Lancome has good lip stuff and their texture is very good. The brand literally catches my eyes 'cos my favorite mascara ever is Hypnôse

Shiseido's lippies are divine, I think your dad's lips agree with me

 

[kobri]

oh cool, a few of the girls I went to esthetics school with worked at Sykea.
