Sindulge Discussion

[yousoldtheworld]

I had told her that I'd prefer not to get skin creams because my skin IS sensitive, and I've been trying too much new stuff lately and it'd been breaking out, and I got that same rose cream, which I hate the smell of.  I can give that to my mom, though, no problem.  But why the heck did I get a mineral primer? I stated to her TWICE that I do not wear foundation, and that I was only interested in eye primers.  Ohhhh well, maybe next month's will be better?

Well I got my box today. I'm pretty meh about it.

Pixi flawless and poreles - I'm actually interesting in trying this out

Pixi eye bright primer - Pretty sure this has been used before. Gross. At the very least it had been opened because the lid wasn't on correctly.

Pixi endless silky eye pen - It looks like a pretty good eyeliner but it's super tiny

Bella Rosa Calming skin creme

Youngblood hi-def powder

I'm most annoyed by the primer and the Bella Rosa skin creme. I had a note in my beauty profile thing that I have really bad allergies and can't handle anything with a strong floral scent plus I reminded her in my consult. The creme is so strongly rose scented. Ugh. Also in my consultation we talked about some "awesome blush by Benefit" and about liquid eyeliners. Guess that's not happening. lol I'm excited to try the Pixi stuff out but it's a little excessive really. I'll definitely get the next box since it's supposed to be free but after that is a long shot at this point.

You know, I was actually excited to try the eye rock liners!   I just couldn't get them to stick, and as I no longer have eyelash glue since I'd given up on falsies, they ended up being mostly a waste for me too.  SIGH.  lol

lol, mine actually stuck really well without lash glue, but next time I use them, I will make sure to add that on there. I went through all 4 of mine really fast, have traded for 2 more sheets and bought them with the bb points on my second bb account when I went to close it, lol.

Lame! I mentioned in my consult that I love blush, and she mentioned a really pretty bright blush that Smashbox makes that I might like, and I'm pretty sure that won't be showing up in there, and that (along with a hair mask) were the only things that we had time to talk about, so yeah. Kinda curious to see what I'll be getting.

That's really cool, I'm happy to hear of people who are able to get some of the more hard to handle beauty tools and tricks to work.  Love that you love the Eyerock eyeliners, I haven't tried mine yet.  I've played with lashes but they end up glued to my fingers as well.  I'd love to be able to be confident enough to wear them often, when I wear them it seems like I'm not putting them on right and they are wearing me.  Maybe I'm not buying the right kind?  I will still continue to play with them and try to figure them out, because I want to have some engagement type photos done of my husband and I and I think that with extra lashes it could really make a difference in the photos.  Some of the pics will be taken from far away, to include the beach and scenery as well, so I really want my makeup to play up my features so they don't get lost.  You give me hope! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

ageofanxiety and yousoldtheworld: I'd be interested in trading with you both to get your Bella Rosa creme! I found that it works really well on my redness and has not made me break out.

haha well, for what its worth I only wear full lash strips when I'm going OUT OUT but that is when I also pile on the glitter. I'm not sure how they'd do in photographs, but I definitely don't buy antyhing expensive...ELF and NYX are the brands I buy most often. I have one pair by napoleon perdis but I haven't worn them yet.

Aww, I actually just handed it off to my mom like 10 minutes ago (she loves roses), otherwise I'd have sent it to you for sure!  I'm glad to know that it didn't break you out though, maybe next time I'm over there I'll try a bit of it.  Hopefully you can get your hands on some more, that stuff's expensive! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Yeah I was surprised too, but using the creme and juicy beauty serum every morning and night it seems like my pores are getting smaller and less clogged.

I want to try the juice beauty (either the cleanser or serum) so badly!  I keep hoping I'll get a sample one of these days, but I keep missing out on it!  Especially lately, I've had a lot of stress and I've been breaking out like mad.  Maybe I'll just break down and buy some!

 

[sweetiegirlll]

Okay, I'll be sure to do some test photos before the actual photoshoot while playing around with them, thanks for the advice.  I don't want to look like a drag queen!  lol  I think it's a confidence thing, some women can pull off bright red lips and some don't feel comfortable in that strong of a lipstick.  I love red lipsticks, myself.  I think the lashes are making me feel like a teenager all over again, discovering new things, and that's throwing me off my game.  I'm wondering/thinking about using Latisse to grow longer lashes, but have to think about whether it's worth the commitment and doctor's visit for that.  I'm kind of afraid of using it and then eventually stopping and all the new lash growth falling out and looking strange.  So far, the fiber mascaras with "beauty tubes" have been a lifesaver for me.  Makes my fine lashes look more dramatic. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  See, you can even see them in my wink!

I use the loreal growth serum and surprisingly it works really well! My lashes don't fall out nearly as much so they look fuller and longer. And it was 14.99 with no doctor's visit. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 

 

[sweetiegirlll]

Wow!  I'll have to try that!  I think I may even have some down here in Belize, because I use the L'oreal Double Extend mascara with beauty tubes and one day they had a set that included some kind of serum in with the mascara and I bought it.  I tried it a few times but forgot about it.  I'm going to try it on a regular basis and see what it does for me.  You are a font of good advice! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  Cool beans!

[Marshie]

And I was right. >_> A box full of Youngblood. *sigh* After we discussed that I loved trying bright lip, eye & cheek colors I got none of anything. I got:

*YB Mineral Primer

*YB Hi-Def Powder in Warmth

*YB Eye Impact

*LA Fresh Waterproof Makeup Remover wipes

And that's it. I am speechless LOL.

Yup that is the one I have! I can't promise any miracles, but I've noticed a difference in about 3 weeks of use. 

 

[javagirl87]
