When I tried it (I tried the black, and purchased and subsequently returned a cobaltish blue one) it was WAY too sheer for my tastes, and took multiple passes to achieve an opaque line — and it also irritated my [admittedly unusually sensitive) eyelid skin. That issue is pretty definitely the fault of the formula, not…

Girl, clean top liner IS POSSIBLE. Let me talk at you from ultra-sweaty oily-skinned everything-smudges-and-smears-and-imprints-on-me experience : YOU HAVE OPTIONS. Shit that is real real good and basically 100% budgeproof on me (and also doesn’t irritate my sensitive eyelid skin) : 1) Tarte Sex Kitten liner stylo/pen,…

11/10, would watch.

TRUTH, girl. Sigh. :\

Less-sweet [without the decrease of sugar subbed out with a lo-cal sweetener] soda AND ICE CREAM are my dreaaaaaam. 

I was *thisclose* to buying those Heidi-Klum branded Birkenstock Boston mules that were like black haircalf with silver grommets and rhinestones? (I still kinda regret not getting them.)

That whole “but men are biologically programmed to seek out healthy child-bearers, it’s totally natural!” thing is made of 100% pure organic side-eye. 

Ditto. And yeah, ColourPop also does palettes in that same size/shape/layout. And with as many makeup companies as there are these days — huge conglomerates, boutique brands, and indies — ALL COPYING EACH OTHER, there’s pretty much no way to make a palette that doesn’t resemble an extant set.

But they’re both SO GOOD AT IT, and Gina always looks so amazing? (Gabriel Macht is pretty as hell, but I just find Adams so, soooooo aggressively bland.)

WOO, oh man I love that stuff so much! <3

To be fair, who WOULDN’T be in awe of Richard Ayoade? Oh god I would 100% lose my shit if I ever actually met/saw him in person.

I’m at PrettySuperb.com now — and there’s also occasionally pieces from a handful of other XOV expats! (And hey, if you ever feel like contributing ... :D)

IDK either but does she have INHUMANLY NARROW SHOULDERS or what? 

Ha, we’re still around! Or at least I’m still around, on the same blog! <3 (And I continue to be a SOLID careprost/bimatoprost devotee!)

I think so too! I def have fewer “issues” with Insta-Dri than I do with Seche, but I still use Seche for swatching, and sometimes on my toes. I just wish you could get Insta in a big-ass (and much cheaper!) refill bottle...

They’re SO good! And I love that color! Mine are a little shorter than I prefer right now, because I had a *leeeettle* break on one nail, filed them all down a bit to compensate, and then IMMEDIATELY badly broke another one. :( But for real, without my heavy duty PolishArmor routine? They have about the same…

Same. I do a base of three coats of Nailtiques 2 (my nails are shittyyyyyyyyy), plus two coats of color, plus a bulking top coat, plus a quick-dry top coat, and if I take a shower at 10:30 and start on my manicure right after, I’m usually doing the last coat around 12:30-1. Is this weird? IDK.

Or Sally Hansen Insta-Dri in the red bottle! I love the Giant Valu Size you can get Seche in (a regular bottle plus a 4oz bottle to refill it from) for like twenty bucks, but Insta seems to wear a little better for me, and isn’t as prone to Seche’s notorious “shrinkage” issue. But one or the other is a MUST-HAVE for…
