I didn't feel like spamming my friends either so I sat on the waitlist, but after a few weeks (I know, I'm impatient) I emailed them and asked them to give my spot to someone else, thanks anyway. They said they could do that buuuuuut they could also start my sub right now if I wanted to stick around! I did and I…

Wow, that sucks! Sorry they did that to you. It's not like it's heavy or oversized or anything like that.

I think all of the subscription services charge on the 1st and ship towards the middle/end of the month. I do Ipsy and Petit Vour and they both do it, too.

I was on the Ipsy waitlist for a little bit for the same reasons: I didn't want to spam all my friends for the sake of a beauty box. This was going to be my Xmas present to myself so I had signed up for the year subscription for $110, and after a week or so on the waitlist I thought "what was I thinking?! I'll give…

I'm loving Petit Vour so far (two boxes in.) It's all cruelty free and organic products with a real luxury feel. There was a full-sized mascara last month that which all by itself was worth the price of the box, plus some amazing mint chocolate chip body butter that smelled aMAYzing. I'm a little obsessed with them,…

My gloss went right into the trash too! It smelled gross and looked awful. People on the forum (RIP Ipsy Forum, you will be missed.) were saying it looked cute over a darker shade, but that just seemed like more trouble than it was worth.

Seriously. Is it willful ignorance for the sake of drama or simply incredibly poor reading comprehension? We may never know.

Burt's Bees in Red Dahlia is (apologies in advance) the balm. I'm wearing it right now and my lips feel fantastic, and it give just a nice subtle pop of color. It looks darker in the tube than it does on.

Jesus christ! Mayo in mashed potatoes? I love mayo and will put way too much of it on a sandwich or in chicken salad. I love mashed potatoes, and to me Thanksgiving is a potato based holiday. The two of them together? Fuck no. I'm queasy just thinking about it. Blecch.

Yeah, sorry, to me it's clearly a lousy picture of a gold and whit dress so I can see why the internet is so divided. It's not clearly anything. It's one of those optical contusions, right?

Where is the snark? I'm genuinely curious. My snark-o-meter is pretty finely tuned and it didn't ping once.

If you listen there's a soft guide vocal, and she rejoins the singing with the line that's something like "... you gave me and it shines in my heart." That's definitely her singing, though.

We must read different sites because I've seen dozens of "Jared Leto is a douchebag" stories for the past decade or so. If you're still interested when you get home, I found the very first one I ever read from 2004! I remember it because I really loved Lindsay Robertson and miss her as a blogger.

Because there are lots and lots of stories like THIS ONE out there.

I really, really, really wished she would enunciate more, and also remember that the first part ended with "just listen to me" instead of saying "just set yourself free" twice in the chorus. That drove me a little nutso, and I don't even like the song.

I actually think there was a bet/conspiracy/running joke to include him in as many bits as they possibly could. He got more stage time than anyone!

Yup. I came here to drop a Ming the Merciless reference as well.

She was surprisingly, painfully bad. Was that supposed to be a Russian/Californian accent? I don't have any feelings about her one way or the other but she gave her haters plenty to work with in that bit.

Yup. I'm not buying it. Maybe they're friends, maybe even friends who have had sex a few times, but I don't see either of them settling down any time soon.

He is and it's oddly wonderful.
