Sage, I'm glad you finally went to see a doc. Do you swell around your undereye area too? Do you get bad dark circles? Just asking to see if anyone else gets symptoms like these. I probably need to go back to my ENT. But I'm being lazy b/c my guy is no longer in my network. I don't want to start over.

Like I've said repeatedly, I'm organizing my stash. I think I'm going to try and finish up a few old colors that I have for the rest of this Month before I use anything else new.

I wore BMS quad from Temp Rising (finally got it to work) and Sushi Kiss. I only used mineralize concealer in nc45 (or 44) and MUFE concealer in 14. I forgot the found at home.

OK, I'm rambling.

BTW, where have Cartoon Chick, and Medgal been? In the nail polish and Chanel threads? :-D

sagehen - I'm so glad you went to the doctor. We were trying to tell you (so was your body) that you were ill. Quit being stubborn! Oh and how much do I owe you?

PP - finally w/ that dang quad. I'm glad you're getting it to work for you.

aradhana - I would be self-conscious about reapplying a bold lip, too, but that's stupid. We're just neurotic. LOL I wish lips just lasted through food so we wouldn't have to stare at our lip prints on wine glasses all evening. I've never been to Montreal. If we don't plan it, it will never happen. We'll always just be saying we should...
For lips I don't recall the lipstick shade, but the gloss is Ogasm.

CartoonChic and Medgal - we are calling out to you. Update us on life and looks.

Yes, I went, and I believe the treatment might be worse than the disease lol. Antibiotics always cause my eczema to flare up. My scalp is on fire. I will do my best for 8 more days, I guess. I am going to say this just once...Sephora Cream Lip Stains. More product in tube than Stila, just over half the price, lips stay on until you remove them. Only the matte ones - the shimmery ones are a no-go. I learned the hard way. My face today is pitiful. TM, concealer, powder and brows. No mascara, no nothing. My eyes hurt too much to put on eye makeup. Oh, and lip balm.

Hello Everyone, I have been enjoying your posts. Miss TT you look radiant. Sagehen feel better. Let the antibiotics run their course. You don't want the infection to become resistant and then you have to go on a stronger course. I am currently in full nesting mode and awaiting any day now for my new bundle of joy. My makeup regimen has consisted of Maybelline's BB cream, MAC stud eyebrow pencil, MAC feline Khol's and Cargo Key Largo blush to revive my skin color. Hopefully I will recapture my zest for all things colorful after the baby arrives. Hope Cartoon Chic and Medgal are doing well. Talk to you all soon PrettyGirlDoc

PrettyGirlDoc for some reason I thought you'd had your little one already. Still just waiting it out, huh? BB cream is the perfect thing to keep your skin looking glowy and healthy along with being quick. How are you feeling?

I know I've asked this before, but I'm asking again: do y'all wear primer under your BB creams and tinted moisturizers? I would think you shouldn't because the products are supposed to be treating your skin. They just happen to have a little color to them. But then I guess folks want to make the coverage last so I could see where you might include a primer.

Thanks PrettyGirl Doc - if I have to take them, I don't play with antibiotics, so I will definitely take them all. Best wishes on the arrival of your little one (BTW, I peeked at your blog and you have made me want UD F-Bomb lipstick...)

i don't wear primer underneath for the reason you stated. i guess it really depends why you're wearing tinted moisturiser or bb cream. i've asked a laura mercier salesperson in the past, and i didn't get a clear answer!
umm...i do wear strobe liquid and lustre drops under tinted moisturizer, but those are thin products that don't really form a barrier between the skin and the next product.

I don't know about PP, but I'll admit it. I'm adverse to cold. And hot. LMAO. 80F/27C feels nice so probably late Spring/Summer. I'm not gonna let this conversation die. We gotta hound PP. I've begun plotting my savings strategy...

^^The eczema (and other issues) are slowing coming under control. I am being very dilligent about re-colonizing my gut bacteria and re-mineralizing. No face today. No. Face. At. All. Just. Tragic. My boss has already invited me to leave. I may take her up on it.

LOL, your struggle face is better than my basic face.

Let's go to Montreal! Some friends of mine were just talking about it. So I'm anxious to go. But, can we fly? LOL I don't like long drives.
I agree about sagehen's struggle face. And yes it will be a plane. I looked up ticket prices yesterday out of Chicago. We need to save $25/wk.

Oh no. I hope she's not asking about going home b/c of your face. LOL. That's the worst. how are you feeling? I agree about sagehen's struggle face. And yes it will be a plane. I looked up ticket prices yesterday out of Chicago. We need to save $25/wk. ;)
LOL no. She saw me coming in today, walking...very...slowly to my desk. I didn't even speak to her because I was trying to conserve air. But she also knows me very well and knows something must be wrong for me not to have ANYTHING on. And this sad pair of jeans with flats. She knows I love to paint my face and I drag her along sometimes (in the past 12 years, I have hipped her to MAC matte lipsticks / Studio Fix powder foundation, Sephora, getting her eyebrows threaded on the regular and broadened her horizons past that same dull nail color). I need to get it together. Temps are falling, Autumn is coming - I need to be fab! So, I live on the Left Coast but why do I feel like crashing y'alls trip to Canada?

Sorry but that was hilarious to me. Not your pain, but the way you wrote that. Feel better.

Now tell me about re-colonizing and re-mineralizing. ???
