A cute young clerk at the local Whole Foods wears high-pigment color. She told me to get a NYX eyeshadow base crayon in Milk. It’s white and makes her eyeshadow color pop like nobody’s business.

I’m a sucker for Sisley Soir de Lune. Everytime someone smells a whiff it’s like you’re giving away 5 bucks, so don’t wear it around assholes. Select audience only.

The return policy at Sephora was major for me while I was first experimenting with nicer makeup. They also carry more of what I’m looking for in the luxury brands. And I’m VIB Rouge so I get free (super fast!) shipping online on anything which is major for me as I do most of my shopping online.

Ulta also has SALES - real sales, like 50% Urban Decay primer. I stock the hell up, because 5 primers for 10 bucks each last me the whole year.

I miss my mom for one billion and one reasons but really I miss her for the occasional ‘oh I wish I had more spending money’ purchases or the rare but still beloved ‘I’ll help you make this gigantic life purchase because I’m so proud of you’. I never felt more alone or untethered to life as when I lost my mom.

It’s a magical place called Cincinnati. We have a fascination with pork products and baseball, and every so often, it can pay to live here, like when Sephora inexplicably chooses it as a test market.

(I shall file a report of the products as soon as they get into my grubby little hands).

Where is this magic place you test-market people live? Also, please report back.

SAME STORY except with Birchbox. Couldn’t believe what a game changer tinted eyebrow gel was.

So I had a really horrible day on Thursday and left work and went to Sephora to cheer myself up. I was playing with all the TokyoMilk Dark fragrances, and spotted the Atelier, and lo and behold, they are amazing. Might be time to graduate from my beloved Demeter Ocean and Fig Leaf.

Mix and match, product line is a conspiracy!

I just posted about this, too (but without the link because lazy). Love, love, love the brow gel! Looks totally natural, yet fills in where it needs to!

I love the Tarte Park Avenue Princess, I have it in two of my Tarte Palettes and love it. I’m a Matte bronzer kinda gal and I feel like it’s perfect for my skin. My mother is a horrible enabler when it comes to makeup, she always says “well you deserve right?” and the answer is always yes.

Oh, boo! According to the person who helped me, it is supposed to give you at least three options in varying shades. Verdict: your awesomeness cannot be contained.

HELLO I WAS BORN FOR THIS THREAD!!

I’m here to say that, for me at least (your mileage may vary), La Mer is overpriced garbage. It gave me whiteheads galore. I wound up using it on my nasty cracked heels, and I’ll give it credit for this at least: it made me feet smooth and soft. But that’s some awfully expensive foot cream! (I got a huge discount or I…

Oh my word. I’m sorry that happened to you.

Rebuttal: Tony Hale is fantastic and deserves ALL the Emmys.

Natasha Lyonne is dating creepy Fred Armisen ? Does the world not face enough problems already?

I don’t understand Heidi Klum’s whole look. It looks like raggedy curtains she found in a dust bin.
