I'm taking it in to work to prove it's value to my fair skinned co-worker's, so they really should be throwing us in some freebies ya know?

I got some eyeshadow samples on eBay and I may like it, too - not sure yet because I've only used it a couple of times. Unfortunately, I'm a makeup whipper on-er and am not real precise. This works fine with the foundation but not so well with the eyeshadow - it clings immediately and you can't just lick your thumb and smudge it off. So I actually had to use makeup remover to get rid of the plum death blob around my eyes.

But I went back and was more careful this time, and it looks great and is still there. LONG after my old shadow would have left the building. In fact, I got my act together around 8am, and I still look exactly the same as I did when I walked out of the house this morning.

Vrai, were they true, sealed samples, or like CC said, just some eyeshadow that someone divided up at home?

True samples - little teeny pots, sealed, with a not-homemade label on them. There was like 8 of them.

I ordered a sample kit off eBay yesterday. Hopefully I'll have it before Friday and can provide an update on Monday.

Get yourself a Dior Mascara, like Mystical Mom said. Serious, this is excellent mascara and makes your lashes look really full. It's $23 and worth every penny.

I'm a tried and true MAC girl but I may have to try this stuff out.

I use Estee Lauder Magnascope and LOVE it. No clumping and doesn't fade. You can buy it on eBay for cheap, too.

And since I'm single you can all chip in to buy me something nice to make me feel better.

I HATE Estee Lauder Mascara. Every kind that I've tried. MAC Zoom Lash or Lancome Definicils for me. I have naturally long, curly, thick eyelashes and everything either clumps or makes them stick together. Make-up application is 10 minutes tops for me and half of that is putting on the mascara.

Other than foundation, that's all my makeup.

MAC Studio Fix, a little bit of blush, mascara, lip gloss and if I'm feeling saucey a little bit of eyeshadow.

You young things. I can remember when I slapped on some moisturizer and mascara and walked out the door. These days I go for the works.

Me, too. How thick is your spackle?
