The Chromatics: In The City, I'm on Fire (great Springsteen cover).

I used to always do foundation then eyes but after I started doing it the other way around I liked not having to worry about touching up or wiping off excess pigment from my loose shadow powders. You can be messier this way :)

I just bought the Naked2 and honestly, I didn't fall in love with it right away. For whatever reason I struggle with wearing some of the tones in that palette. Everyone raved about Half Baked but it looks very strange on me... I have a neutral to cool undertone so I know that 2 is the palette for me. I am very…

Yes, she just posted an Alexa Chung makeup look WITH Alexa Chung. She can be kind of intimidating with her LaMer etc but she is extremely talented.

I fully second this post. I also learned a TON on Youtube starting with braiding. There is a lot of immature (but talented) Youtubers out there but I tend to watch the more mature makeup artists that stay professional and don't irritate me!

I would suggest using a primer that is for oily skin and helps mattify then making sure after you put on your foundation (if you wear it) to set it with a powder. They have great translucent powders that don't add more coverage and just set what you've already got on your face. If you want to make your blush stay…

I feel like you have to get a matte (no shimmer) bronzer to apply to certain areas. Otherwise the face can look very muddy. Also, the right brush makes a HUGE difference. I use an eco tools brush right now that is really fluffy and it applies the product really lightly and it is easy to blend out. If you are using…

Cc (color corrector) creams provide more coverage than say a BB (beauty balm)cream. Bb creams have other ingredients in them that are beneficial to the skin like sunscreen, mosturizer, etc. Whereas a cc cream have more coverage than a Bb but is more sheer and not as heavy as an actual foundation. Although, there…

i just learned that the upper waterline is called... the tightline.

I posted elsewhere about this but Nars is rumored to have a great primer for oily lids.

If you don't want to invest in a primer concealer also works really well as a base/primer. It provides a bit of tackyness for the shadow to stick to also brightening up the lids and covering any veins or imperfections. I use my Mac Pro Long Wear all the time as a lid primer even though I have a pile of samples of…

I guess Nars has an eye primer that works really well for oily lids. :)

When primer first came on the scene I thought it was all bullshit and just another money sucker that the industry invented for us to pour money into... until I tried it. Now, I feel that way about setting sprays. But hot damn if the Urban Decay All Nighter Spray doesn't keep my makeup exactly where it is supposed to…

In the link above (in one of the many versions) it has her awaking after giving birth, the baby sucks the flax that caused her sleep out of her finger. I had no idea that my favorite Disney movie (mostly because of Flora, Fawna and Maryweather) had so many depictions of rape.

Maybe I am just imagining this but doesn't Nickles (or someone in Season 1) say something to Morello that Christopher hasn't visited since her first two weeks in prison? I could have sworn it was said during Morello's and Nickles fight in Season 1 ... something about Christopher having visited during her stay in…

Regarding the visitation list... it is somewhat easy to finagle your way onto one without much notice. I have a close family member in prison but wasn't on the visiting list. When another close family member died suddenly I called up the prison and asked if I could come in and give the news in person. It took about…

Thank you for referring to them as jimmies. What are sprinkles? Sprinkles of what? S'more of nothing.

First of all, its jimmies, not sprinkles. Secondly, as a person who gets off the couch at 8:30 pm every night for the past few weeks and drives across town to get vanilla frozen custard in a cone, with a (rather large) side of chocolate jimmies (for 'dipping'), I can completely understand this woman's panic when she…

Starred for use of "sky daddy".

I didn't start until the summer before 9th grade. I was 14, almost 15. I remember a particularly bitchy friend in the 8th grade said I couldn't give advice on a boy she liked because "you haven't even gotten your period yet, little girl!". I started randomly asking people for tampons a week later to prove how grown…
