Look at the bright side, if she doesn't like it, you didn't buy her a gift she hates. :biggrin: But if she gets it and likes it, some of their other products (the concealer, that doesn't come with the kit, for instance; or a blush) would make nice stocking stuffers. :wink:

I am so very blessed
I want some of this stuff, too. :yay: Anybody feel sorry for a poor white chick who really needs some decent make-up? I am so tired of looking like Tammy Faye Baker. :bawl:

Be about it
I'm asking for the 26-PC Collection for my birthday in mid-January. :banana: I've been needing to test out some new eye products especially - I can never get eye shadow or blush to last, and the same goes for most other make-up. Right now I use mostly all Neutrogena products.

I have a med/light skin tone, but I'm not considered pale. I'm guessing that I should get the medium shades as opposed to the light foundation?? The light looks like it would be about right, but then I'd be stuck w/some fairly light that's too light. :ohwell: Can any of you who've seem me tell me which to get? I'm not olive colored by any means, but I'm no Christy either. :neener:................okay, nevermind, maybe. I just read the guidance posted by MysticalMom, and it sounds like I should go w/the medium group. Sound good??

Another thing - I use the Neutrogena face wash daily w/creams and never exfoliate or do microdermabrasion. Should I be doing that? I use the face wash in the morning and evenings, and face and eye cream afterwards 2x a day. I used to do gycolic peels weekly but sort of got out of the habit. Does Sally's sell the glycolic peel kits? - I used to get mine online.

I"m caving in to peer pressure and trying to make this an addition on my xmas list...
I couldn't sleep last night and as I was flipping through the chanels I found an infor-mercial for the starter kit. It was soooo tempting after reading this thread and then seeing the "magic makeovers" on TV to not cave to the pressure.

Nickel -- the lighter of the two is yours. The darker of the two "lights" works perfect for me as is. PM me your addy and I'll reply with mine. :yay:

Isn't that something? It's firewood allergy time, so I've been blowing my nose a lot and I'm stunned at how this stuff stays on and doesn't wipe off.

I wonder if Bare Escentuals is publicly traded. I should buy some stock. :yay:

We also got three eyeshadows yesterday. (I thought somehow they were freebies but my daughter let me know that she had gone ahead and got them with my debit card in case she doesn't like them. ok.) Anyway, we both used the color "dream" yesterday and it stayed all day and through the evening with no touch ups. You need *very little* so I believe these will last quite a while.

Vrai, you should have put a link here for us all and made yourself some money. LOL

I looked a few days after this thread started and the chics were going goo goo. It seems it is not listed on the NASDAQ or NYSE or OTC.

The promo code GIFT13 gets you your choice of the following:

LORAC Lotsa Lash Mascara in Black - .12 oz
Sephora Piiink - My Piiink Princess Powder Puff - 0.01 oz
DKNY Be Delicious Mini Lip Gloss - .14 oz
Bliss Vanilla + Bergamot Body Butter - .05 oz

I picked the mascara. :biggrin: Plus you get your choice of three rinky dink samples just for buying something. Everyone on my list is getting some outrageously frivolous gift this year - something they would never buy for themselves but would drool over in a magazine ad. :yay:

Enjoying life!
All this talk of make-up, I'll throw this one out. For about 15 years, I've used facial cover-up for blemishes and acne and spider veins. Does that make me gay? :shrug:

Seriously, does any of this line work for that? DeeJ got my attention at the first post.

At the risk of turning you queer :lol:, I think this would be the absolute best option for guys who want a little concealer. It's very natural looking so you won't get that cakey make-uppy look that other concealers have. But get the Bare Minerals concealer brush because it really is awesome.

And I have had that "cakey make-uppy look" before, especially in white light. Christy already bought herself the kit; maybe I'll raid it as needed. :yay:
