[30 Dec 2009|10:49pm] beauty101 [babydiego] What are you wearing for New Years? :) [10] choke

[30 Dec 2009|04:26pm] beauty101 [degaussmylove] I finally went brunette after being blonde for almost 2 years, and I'm not so sure how I feel about it yet. It's not exactly what I was hoping for, but in a few months I want to try and color it again once my roots start growing in. ( Before & After ) Also, does anyone have any recomendations for products similar to biosilk? My stylist used it on my hair today, and it's amazing. There aren't any places that sell it nearby. Preferably something on the cheap side, but if it is absolutely amazing I'd be willing to go to Sephora. [1] choke

To eat or not to eat... [30 Dec 2009|05:12pm] can_i_eat_this [forbiddenpluto] I left out some Tostitos queso out of the fridge for probably almost 24 hours at this point. It was the can's first opening and it was sealed shut the entire time. Safe or no? I'm thinking if I nuke the heck out of it it may be okay? [8] choke

Gingerbread Village [30 Dec 2009|09:39pm] food_porn [buffologist] Well, it became more of a hamlet after more than a few breakages and someone, I'm blaming dad, eating a roof tile!  Every year I make a gingerbread house but I can never bring myself to destroy it in order to eat it.  I thought that with individual houses I would be able to eat them without destroying everything.  Having my house and eating it if you will!  The gingerbread recipe is over at AnnaintheKitchen.  It makes delicious bisuits but I'm sure there's a much better recipe out there for houses.  choke

[31 Dec 2009|12:26am] beauty101 [halibi] Hello one more time, beauties!=) I went to MAC on weekends to try what MAC color I am. So I am NC 30. Are there any people with that colouring? What foundations except MAC do you use? What Color it'll be in EDM and Bare Minerals? (we have no EDM and BM in our country - so I can buy it only online, or ask a friend to buy it for me=() choke

Bean Soup. Sigh. [30 Dec 2009|01:19pm] can_i_eat_this [thiscantbesoy] My mom made a big batch of bean soup yesterday, put it into 6 individual-serving covered tubs, and put them in a box. I was supposed to take them home and put them in the freezer. I forgot to. So the whole box sat out all night (in a fairly chilly house). The ingredients are: 3 bean: Kidney, black and chili beans (chili seasoned pinto beans) taco seasoning stewed tomatoes tomato sauce cabbage carrots celery pasta ground beef Now, I know, this sounds instantly like an "OMG THROW IT AWAY" thing. I mean, ground beef left out overnight? But I feel SO BAD about this. (My mom made it especially for my picky-eater daughter to eat.) Right now it's in the freezer. Is it a total loss? Even if I nuke the shit out of it before eating? It sat out for about 12 hours. Ugh. [6] choke

[30 Dec 2009|04:14pm] t_shirt_surgery [sarah_charade] So, I have this kinda dorky tuxedo t-shirt from Bluenotes someone gave me for Christmas last year. I put it in a drawer and figured I'd think of something to do with it later. But I still don't have any ideas on how to make it cooler. Any ideas or suggestions? All I could think of was to make a bag, but I feel like t-shirt tote bags are a bit of a cop out. choke

Matching a cream blush color to powder blush [30 Dec 2009|01:01pm] beauty101 [quequieto] Stila's convertible color in Petunia is amazing, but I'm trying to find a powder blush version of this same color. Any suggestions? choke

Boots [30 Dec 2009|03:48pm] beauty101 [dynablade_wings] Anyone know of stores where I can find boot styles like these?: http://www.dsw.com/dsw_shoes/catalog/product.jsp?productRef=SEARCH&category=&prodId=181133 http://www.endless.com/dp/B00125PTYY/ref=asc_df_B00125PTYY993145?tag=yahoo-endless-20&creative=380333&linkCode=asn&creativeASIN=B00125PTYY http://cgi.ebay.com/GoGo-Knee-High-Platform-Boot-S-9-Designer-Vtg-Sz-8_W0QQitemZ320467057043QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Women_s_Shoes?hash=item4a9d533993 Pretty much rounded toe, thick heel, a little platform, and no patent leather. I've looked everywhere online, but they either don't have the right style, and the above sites don't have my size (I'm an 8) [3] choke

Reversible Vest [30 Dec 2009|01:31pm] t_shirt_surgery [mass_comm_girl] Tutorial and finished project for a reversible vest I made. The grey side was a Medium t-shirt I picked up at a thrift store and the striped is an XL men's dress shirt (so silky smooth!) also thrifted. So the vest only cost me $1.00 to make! [1] choke

question [30 Dec 2009|01:14pm] tattoo_ink [novemberheart] Hi!  I'm new to this community, so mod please feel free to delete if I'm breaking any rules.  I was looking for a general design for a tattoo I want - basically I want something that has a pinup-type girl putting on makeup - I really want the focus to be on the makeup/cosmetics.  Anytime I do an image search online, however, it brings up cosmetic tattooing, as in permanent eyebrows and lipliner.  I'm not really interested in that.  I'm a makeup artist and so I want to reflect that in my tattoo.   Does anyone have any suggestions?  Thanks so much in advance!!!! [3] choke

Medicated coverup and conditioner rec [30 Dec 2009|02:11pm] beauty101 [leopard555] Hey everyone, in the past I've gotten some really good advice/recommendations so I'm back again! My first question is, does anyone use medicated coverup? As in, a spot coverup that has some sort of zit drying medication in it. I had never thought of using such a thing until I heard someone talking about it, and it sounds like a great idea. Any good drugstore brands? Also, in general, what's everyone's favorite drugstore brand of spot coverup, medicated or not? Second, I wanted to recommend a product: Proclaim Olive Glossing Conditioner. It's from Sally's and I love it. I don't use it everyday (sometimes just once a week) but my hair is so much noticeably softer. I've never noticed such a difference from a shampoo or conditioner. Thanks in advance for any help! [2] choke

So I know everyone hates hair posts.. but I only get my hair cut like twice a year and it's tomorrow [30 Dec 2009|10:44am] beauty101 [sooz] I have no idea what I'm going to do with my hair. It's pretty long now and that is making it less curly and just kind of wavy. I'm SUPER low maintenance with it and decided dying it was a bad idea because I'm such a failure at upkeep. I apologize for how crappy all these pictures are, but I fail at the camera phone. ( bad quality picture heavy ) [6] choke

Scarf as a belt? [30 Dec 2009|01:42pm] beauty101 [patsrockmybosox] [ mood | curious ] For Christmas/Chanukah, my boyfriend's sister got me this ( BEAUTIFUL scarf ) I love it, but I don't have the slightest idea how to wear it. I was thinking it would look really cute as a belt with jeans and a t-shirt, but I'm having the hardest time figuring out how I would do this. I figured I could thread it through the belt loops, but this scarf is really long - I think on the Old Navy website, it says it's something like 72 inches. I tried googling it but haven't found anything helpful; everything I've found has involved shorter or square shaped scarves as opposed to really long rectangular/oblong shapes ones. Any suggestions? [5] choke

Another "Thank you Secret Santa" post!! [30 Dec 2009|06:11pm] off_stretched [shalajarias] Thank you so much pseudo_rockstar for the gifts!! I was not able to accept the package the previous 2 times they came because i was in the hospital thanks to, what they assumed was a stroke, and i was worried that my secret santa gift would not arrive at all (or got stolen from our mailbox) but that was not the case. ( This is what she got me! ) [5] choke

Large Pores [30 Dec 2009|11:59am] beauty101 [violetblossom] So I have been having some skin troubles lately. I've been changing products & BC's. My skin is finally starting to settle down, but I have noticed that my cheeks have very large visible pores. I have never really had this problem in the past, but like I said my skin has been kind of crazy the past couple months. Anyways, I currently am using some sulfur products that my doctor prescribed. I have combination skin that is pretty normal to dry in most areas. I do not really exfoliate very often, because my skin is sensitive & prone to breakouts. I find that most exfoliating products are too harsh and irritating for my skin. What can I do to minimize the pores on my cheeks? I find that they are somewhat noticeable even with makeup. [1] choke

Red Hair, Silver Makeup? [30 Dec 2009|11:10am] beauty101 [beeatrize] Greetings beauties! I recently went from blonde to  'Marcia Cross Coppery-Red' hair. I do love it. I have been struggling with eyeshadow though. I used to wear a lot of golds, neutrals, bronzes as a blonde, and still do as a red head, but want to branch out. With NYE fast approaching, I was thinking of doing something silver. I have never done silver with red hair. Does that even work well? Or am I better off sticking to the gold family? My skin tone is a very generic medium beige... not too pink or too orange. I've had hair ranging from black to blonde and am lucky that I manage to suite most eye shadow colours (when I had dark hair, I loved the cool tones and silvers etc). With the coppery red hair, I have always been convinced that I can't wear silver, yet I love the look! Any one have any tips or suggestions on wearing silver makeup as a red head? Is there a shade or tone of silver should be looking for? Thanks! [11] choke

Beauty Resolutions [30 Dec 2009|10:27am] beauty101 [x_shiningstar] I feel like someone always asks this before the start of every year. I love reading them so... what are your beauty resolutions for the new year? P.S. I hope everyone has a safe and fun time on New Year's Eve/Day! =) [19] choke

Cat tattoos [30 Dec 2009|11:53am] tattoo_ink [heartfatality] I'm curious to see if anyone of you have any cat (related) tattoos. I'd love to see pictures of them and their placement + why did you get it? I'm planning on getting a cat tattoo some time next year; most likely cat paws or a cat silhouette. [3] choke
