What is that? Like... when your mascara is drying out? You can revitalize it? Let me know. It sounds interesting.

That's a brilliant product, I had no idea they even existed! I actually don't like brand new mascara, I find I need a tiny bit of drying out for it to thicken enough to do its job. But when it gets too dry it gives you short, fat sticks for eyelashes! Enter mascara thinner.

My favourite beauty product is Clarins Beauty Flash balm. It actually does give radiance to the skin without fake looking shimmer or sparkle, you can't overdo it. It's a godsend for days when you don't get enough sleep!

P.S. I love Eve Lom, too! I'll never switch my cleanser.

Girl- I love Fresh Mascara too, but turned off by the dryness after a week or two. I am totally dying to check out this product. Thanks :D

you have beautiful face!

Okay, why didn't I think of that? Mascara thinner is a fantastic way to justify buying a $32 tube of mascara (darn you, DiorShow Blackout!)--if I can make it stretch longer, I'm all for it!

My current favorite bronzer is Laura Mercier--it contains 2 shades that I like to mix and minimal shimmer. I also really like Bobbi Brown as it looks very natural and "beachy" on.

Can't wait to see the store! Let me know if you need help with anything...

i would love to wear fake lashes everyday as well!...

2009-06-05T16:43:20.007-07:00

i would love to wear fake lashes everyday as well! i never even heard of a mascara thinner- they come up with everything nowadays!

2009-06-05T06:38:57.313-07:00

Ohh. That's such a smart idea. I will have to try it out, cos i know how it is to have gluggy mascara! merci for the tip!

2009-06-04T12:48:44.031-07:00

Brilliant idea! I definitely need that. I love how thickening Dior show mascara is but it dries out rather quickly. I always forget to buy mascara though because the cost really adds up.

Oh wow! That is amazing! You are soooo right about...

2009-06-04T12:17:02.658-07:00

Oh wow! That is amazing! You are soooo right about the honeymoon period with mascara! Use Lancome Definicils but I'm sick of it, so I'm going to try the Fresh and keep trying to get the thinner...YAY!

My fav makeup products right now-Nars Orgasm blush, I know that's not very original...I also love the mac liquid liner pen-I worked for them for years and had a heart attack when they finally came out with it. But you're so up to date I am prob not helping you at all :)

I'm saving my pennies for your store! XOXO

2009-06-04T11:04:58.815-07:00

This sounds like a cool product, and as you say, for $2 you can't go too far wrong!

I actually have the opposite relationship with mascara that you have. The first couple of weeks I find that it's too wet and goopy and it clumps like crazy. After it dries out a bit it's the perfect consistency for me. I like Cover Girl Lash Blast at the moment for the plastic bristle brush and clump-free application.

I never knew a product like this even existed, but...

2009-06-04T10:41:25.397-07:00

I never knew a product like this even existed, but I'll definitely have to pick some up at some point. I'd love to try it. Also-- eyebrow shaver? I've never heard about THESE either, or at least I have no clue how you're supposed to use it (I'm sure I imagine it as more complex than it is). Details, please :)

that's awesome!!! I so need to try it. I'm using...

2009-06-04T09:58:01.095-07:00

that's awesome!!! I so need to try it. I'm using tarte right now, but my fav is bad gal lash by benefit. I am thinking about trying eyelash extensions...I'll let you know how it turns out. I suck at putting on false eyelashes. cargo makes a good bronzer and I like benefit's dallas too for my skin tone. I'm kind of a benefit whore....I use a lot of their products.

and hurry up and open up your shop already!!

2009-06-04T02:08:21.564-07:00

I adore benefit "talk to the tan" I've tried so many bronzer but this one is the best, I actually love all benefit cosmetics, the "lemon aid" it's in my purse everyday and I really can't live without the Posietint!

2009-06-04T00:04:58.908-07:00

Hmmm my fav products...I am currently over the moon of the Say Yes to Carrots shampoo & conditioner, it makes my hair light and soft and I am a loyal fan of the Shiseido Advanced Volume mascara (GOD GIFT to my straight brown !!! invisible Korean eyelashes). Oh yes and the ArtDeco eyeshadows are really good....and Dior makes nice too, those sets with 5 of them are great :)

very cool! who knew such a thing existed? thanks...

2009-06-03T23:49:52.552-07:00

very cool! who knew such a thing existed? thanks for the tip.

This set is my favorite faux tanning kit of all time and the bronzer included is the best, I have never been able to get a "natural" tan look from makeup before I got this. The body lotion is fantastic as well.

That sounds really useful. I love "drag queen lashes" I spend ages reapplying in the morning so I run out faster than it clumps! xoxo

This is so funny...I just saw this somewhere else and thought to myself, "what IS this product anyway?"

And now I know!

2009-06-03T22:12:23.242-07:00

najeema: i totally forgot about bonne bell! i used to wear the powder bronzer...i think i might pick one up again. thx for the reminder!

La Couturier: i wish i could get away w/a swipe of lip gloss. sounds divine to be minimal like that. :)

Denise: i have no idea if the fridge preserves makeup...you've peeked my curiosity so now i'm gonna research it! haha

Savvy Mode SG: i miss you guys, too! can't wait to get back on a normal blogging schedule again.

Karafina: i know! i didn't think anything like it existed. so of curse i had to try it out.

I found your blog about a month ago and I spent a lazy weekend reading all your posts-you're fabulous! Thanks for this mascara tip, I''ll be sure to try it because I too am sad after the honeymoon period ends. I don't really use makeup on a daily basis, but when I want to add some fun I use MAC's Sumptuous Olive eye shadow and apply it eye-liner style on my upper lid and on the corners of the bottom lids. The green color compliments brown eyes nicely. Have a lovely night. Can't wait to see your store!
