Excuse the bad quality but DLG. This is one of my favourite pinks, it doesn't pull as purple on me as others which I'm glad of.
I'm also a fan of BB, even though it tends to be a bit drying.

Pretty!!!! I've done 2 looks with caramelsundae so far I just haven't had the time to take pics and I still haven't done a single look with spoiled rich.
Thanks :*

I admit that I've done only once look with Spoiled Rich. It has the potential, but you need to work on blending shadows. Caramel Sundae in this respect is easier, but little is distinguished colors from each other. Especially at the end of the day.

Hehe. They really are addicting. I never got much into ink because I'm worried about getting bored of them but I'm cool with piercing's because you can lose them whenever you like.

How long have you had your smiley for? My frowny rejected in less than a month (to be fair, the piercer warned me that I didn't have much tissue there but I went ahead with it anyway). I had to take off my tongue and tongue web when I had an operation under general anesthesia so they closed up. I got the tongue redone but not the web. I miss it

Same here, surprisingly I still don't have any tattoos, I just want to make sure I'm certain on a design before going ahead with one.

It's been about 8 months now, lasting up quite well and I decided against a frowny for that exact reason! I have my tongue web done though and that has lasted a year so far but it seems to be growing out.

I really fear the day I have to take any of mine out, I love them so much!

8 months is really good for a smiley

re: taking out piercings - I know the feeling. I had to have my nape microdermals removed earlier this year because one of them started rejecting. I'm waiting for the scar tissue to soften a bit more so that I can have them redone. I had them for more than 3 years, which is pretty good for a microdermal. I sometimes wish that I kept the healthy one but it would probably look weird with just one (they were symmetrical).

I know, I'm shocked it's managed to last so long! Ah that's a bummer, I have a microdermal on my chest which plays up quite often so I'm fearing it may be slowly migrating. :( I had my nape pierced for 2 years but also had that removed. I'm hoping for the scar tissue to soften and I might consider some dermals because I used to love the piercing! Most people think I'm mad haha but there's something so satisfying about sterling silver and a needle!

I'm so bummed I didn't pick up Prom Princess, a Daddy's Little Girl l/s, and a backup to Betty Bright. I think Betty looks sooooo good on me. :-(

I haven't got any new ones lately but I'm planning on treating myself to a rook after I defend my PhD. I'm so not looking forward to the healing process but hey, no pain no gain.

I actually wanted to have a custom-made surface barbell on my nape but the place I went to didn't offer custom-made stuff and used PTFE instead (no!!!!). So I went for microdermals instead. Ah, how I loved them. Removal wasn't much fun though
nope.gif


I'd recommend having your chest micro removed if it's started rejecting. Once it begins there's no going back. If you lose it early on in the process there'll be less scar tissue to worry about later on. Good luck :)

woohoo I finally got my hands on cream soda. I passed on it when it first came out but then I kept seeing swatches that made me regret not getting it.

Rook isn't so bad, just make sure it's not on the side you usually sleep on

Ah I'm kind of dreading removal, though I fear it can't be worse than ripping out a hip piercing on a shower scrunchie(very much an ouch moment

). Better sooner than later though I guess, a trip to my piercer is definitely in order, thanks:)

I picked up prom princess but got rid of it, I regret skipping on cream soda it looks like such a lovely colour for summer.

I had one experimental non-ear / non-facial piercing that grew out within the first year. It was disappointing, but i knew it was a possibility.

I had seven other non-ear / non-facial piercings i also got in the mid-90s that lasted for over 10 years, then one started growing out. With that first one i didn't realize it was growing out, just thought it was irritated, so i kept it very clean, lubricated, etc., but i finally realized what was happening and took it out - there's an interesting scar there now. So when the second one - symmetrical to the first - started, i took it out fairly quickly. Some years later another began to grow out, so i had to take it out and its symmetrical mate, too. Very frustrating. Now i only have 3 non-ear / non-facial piercings that seem stable.

I also have 7 ear piercings, but they are now easily irritated when i wear earrings, so i only do for special occasions.

I was going through airport security about a week ago, and it was the hooks on the back of my bra set off their alerts.
