Oh this really resonates with me. My current boyfriend is the first guy who really really cares whether I get off or not — hearing me come is a huge part of what gets him off, which I love and it's great in many ways (he will do anything I want him to in order to make me come), it's also frustrating when I just can't

Jeremy Renner was already chosen as the next Bourne.

May I suggest John Frieda's Dream Curls spray (I hoard bottles of this because it can be hard to find) and Curl Enhancing Mousse (which I've only ever found at Target here in NYC and in my hometown in the midwest). They are THE BOMB. I get so many compliments on my natural ringlets now that I'm wearing my hair down

I have the brown liquiline blast (and the plum). I really like it — it's rich and a good deep brown, and glides on really nicely. I always always use a primer, so I can't attest to its staying power without primer, but with, it works great. I usually don't like Cover Girl products, but I do like this one.

I've bought shoes from his collections for Payless in the past and they are surprisingly comfortable and have held up well. Much recommended.

Yes, that post spawned one of the greatest comment threads I've ever seen on Gawker. I was crying with laughter.

I'll throw in a word for Laura Mercier's Secret Camouflage for those who don't use MAC products (their counters/constant loud music/hovering sales people intimidate me). It's heavy duty and my $28 compact has lasted over a year and is still going strong. Each compact has 2 shades that you can blend depending on what

I'd also throw this out there: the Revlon longwear liquid lipsticks are fantastic. I bought the red because Jennifer Connelley was the model in the ads and it looked amazing on her. I find that to be the only longwear (and I've tried them ALL) that doesn't need much gloss/balm over it. It feels very flexible on

Mine all dried out too. The Maybelline felt-tip lipstains are way better in my opinion. I also store them upside down, that helps.

You should see a derm, too — but I mentioned in a thread below that I love Ole Henriksen's Nurture Me (in winter) and Sheer Transformation (in summer, it's lighter). They're both very gentle, natural, without dyes, etc. I have a hereditary tendency toward rosacea (grandma has it) and get flare ups occasionally (I

AHAs (aka wrinkle cream) will work on those spots, but you have to be pretty vigilant, and use it every day. I like Ole Henrikson's Invigorating Night Gel because it doesn't dry out my skin too much (actually, I would shill for all his products — in winter when my skin gets red and irritated I love the Nurture Me

I've tried every mascara known to man but I still keep coming back to Maybelline. I really don't like Great Lash though — my favorites are Lash Stiletto and One by One (it's new, in a neon reddish-pink tube). They're glossy instead of chalky, and they'll hold a curl after I use the curler, unlike a lot of other

I used Benetint for a long time and always dabbed it onto a sponge first, rather than putting directly on skin. That helps it blend much better. One bottle will last forever.

A further Tarte recommendation for ladies (like @Miss Smith Drank Your Vodka below, who have oily skin). Tarte's Amazonian Clay blushes are really fabulous as well. They're a solid powder blush, very matte. I love Nars and all, but some of those blushes are too sparkly for everyday.

I had some run-ins with Annie Hathaway back in the day, and she is the dictionary definition of an overachieving drama nerd — I had to mute the Oscars every time she was on screen. She's really turned out to be gorgeous, though.

You know who I totally pictured as the lead in that before I got to the "Reese Witherspoon" part? The girl from "My Boys" (an underrated show IMO) — Jordana Spiro. She should be getting more work.

His wife is also awesome. She created the "Debbie Does Dallas Musical" which was hilarious (Matt Damon sat in the row ahead of me the afternoon that I saw it!) and it basically launched the career of Sherie Renee Scott who is now pretty huge on Broadway. And she (Schmidt) is a fellow alumna of my alma mater so I

Something about the shadows on her face in that picture make her look like she's wearing cat makeup. Little painted on nose and whiskers?

Didn't he win something at the show? Swear I saw it in passing on MSN this morning...

Eh, I think of the Bronte novels as "romances" in the Shakespearean sense rather than the "bodice-ripper" sense. But I just like talking about Shakespeare's romances because Winter's Tale is my favorite of his plays (speaking of women in unhappy marriages, but that one has a happy-ish ending).
