I want to try a Beauty Blender so bad but I feel like I keep buying everything and it never satisfies me so I might as well skip it.
Same here. I know I wouldn't like the way you have to grip the beauty blender to use it. I am skipping it....... unless I am not digging the new brush I bought then I might give it a try. Teehee

Quote from Cheapeats :
I watch TiffanyD too. : lol: I have some acne scarring so I'm always afraid of trying for minimal coverage. I don't know what I'm going to do in the summer because I need less coverage now but I still don't feel comfortable without my makeup all done.Frown
I like watching her because we have the same skin tone and color eyes. I love her little dog Waylon too!

I have a couple spots from a bad breakout I had. I think I'm going to try the sheer coverage and just touch up the spots to see how I feel about it, like if it's enough coverage for me. I have never tried her recommendation of MUFE mat velvet+ but I want to give it a try. I'm so easily swayed. Coverlaugh

Quote from kurips :
I knew it was TiffanyD too : lol:
Love her and Makeup Geek! Wink

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
I meant the coach sale. Sorry : teehee:. I do need a new mineral powder brush.
Don't use BE's... for foundation anyway. They shed like crazy!

Quote from crazymonkey1980 :
found it! My friend posted the pic a few days ago ...
I knew MT. Dew had to have some crazy amount of sugar in it. DD drank that on NYE and wouldn't go to sleep!!! I asked DH if she had a Red Bull he said no just Mt. Dew. That is a crazy amount of sugar. EEK!

I am a tea drinker. Hot or cold I love both. Coffee keeps me up all night. But I do love an occasional cafe con leche. Yummy. But only in the morning or mid afternoon.

Which skirt are you talking about alvs? I may need a sexy skirt. Woot

Quote from azn1x6flame :
Ugh, stress does crazy things to the body. I realized I was biting my mouth while sleeping so I was using some teeth guard things at night and there was one night with those things on that I still bit myself. not as bad as regular sharp teeth chomping on my mouth. :shake :
Stress is a killer. hug I bite the inside of my jaw too. For me, it's more habit than stress. I picked it up from watching my sister do it. I try really hard to be aware of it, & stop myself. I think I'm doing it less, but I occasionally do it w/o realizing it. That would be impossible, when you're sleeping though.

Quote from annicus :
yay!! i'm glad you got the dress! i'll bet it's smoking hot on you, especially with your new bod!!!
i was thinking i need something like that for my bachelorette. :lol : i'm not sure where i am going yet tho.
That dress would be perfect for a bachelorette party.

OMG I do that too! I agree it's not really stress, it's just a bad habit. It makes my jaw really sore so I like to keep mints or small candies in my purse so I will stop doing it.

That's a good idea. I should try that.

Thanks for the link. Unfortunately, it looks like it might highlight my belly bulge.

You suck your jaw between your teeth & bite it. I mostly use my incisor teeth.

that is exactly the sort of thing i want to avoid!

my oldest body washes are from bbw semi-annual sales, where i used to pick up extra stock of my favorites that were discontinued. i've gotten through some of them already but can't wait to use up all of them!

:l ol: i know, it will not be pretty when i get a house. i know DF is dreading it.
I just NEED more room! Kid stuff takes up too much room!!
Quote from GoHeels :
She still looks like a cutie to me. :he art:

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but your house will soon be piled up too. :lo l: The bigger the house the more clutter you acquire.
Aww, she is cute. But cuter when she is happy. I know I will clutter the house when I have it, I'd just like more room to clutter up Smilie
Quote from GoHeels :
:lm ao:

I collected up some of the Peter Thomas Roth samples from Hilton, before I tried them. When I did, in the trash they went. shake head They're not up to PTR standards. They're not even up to cheap drugstore standards. (I use drugstore shampoo, but not any that bad. Plus, I want better if I'm going to hoard it from a hotel. :teeh eeSmilie The next time we stayed at Hilton, I left them where they were when we checked in. Where did you get Aveda at?
They also have Aveda products at the Hard Rock in Biloxi. I stole a lot from there Smilie I LOVE LOVE LOVE the little facial bars!

I'm watching the Rays play baseball. It's snowing in Detroit. :e ek: It's beautiful, but Cold.
Awww, that was home Frown I miss the D...

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
I'm about to order. I had a 5 year old on Easter candy running wild around the house tonight. I'm sending him to Tampa to visit you : P!

have they called you. I'd give it one more day.
I'm hoping to convince my child you only get candy if you are bad. Maybe she'll want carrots then Smilie
Quote from azn1x6flame :
Thanks for the heads up! I guess I'm just striking out and should just keep trying. I totally forgot about it during the weekend.

That sucks GH! I think I'm putting a lot of places on my black list if they've made me angry or didn't resolve a problem. Like Alvsy said, I really really like Nordstroms. I remember this one time that I every bought from them online, I wanted to get the Clarisonic and it's supposed to come with a free gift, but it wasn't adding to my cart so I did a live chat because I still saw all the promos and they said it was out, but she said she needed to go search around and magically found one for me! I felt soo special. Sometimes shopping in store can be different, you know, judgement from the SAs and all, which really ticks me off.
Not a store many of you here would shop at, but Cabelas had the BEST customer service I have seen in a LONG time. My hubby bought a new handgun and he bought some bullets for it too. He asked the clerk where the 38 special +P bullets were, and the guy pointed out 38 super + P bullets. Hubby didn't even realize he had the wrong bullets until the other day when he went to put them in his gun and they didn't fit. After he looked and realized what happened, he shot off a quick and polite email to Cabelas CS at 7:30 PM on Saturday. (It is illegal to return or exchange ammunition, BTW. That is the only reason this was an issue.) They responded within an hour! They asked his receipt information which he gave them, and within half an hour again, they responded to him and told him they were sorry for the inconvenience and were sending him a refund check for the $65 the ammo cost. They also told him he could dispose of the other bullets or give them away. Amazing customer service!

i haven't had soda for 48 hrs :fain t: just because we don't have any at home. i'm thinking we just shouldn't buy them, then there's nothing to resist.

next up, junk food!
I've cut out all carbs, but I still cannot give up my diet pepsi lol...Good luck!!
Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
I also had a moment and all the Easter candy is in the trash with cleaner sprayed on it! So glad thats gone :tee hee:!
LMAO This seriously made me lol!!!!
Quote from Tizzylicious :
What the heck is going on at VS? My order from last week still hasn't shipped. :sadwa lk: At least my Sigma brush shipped I've been waiting on. Anyone ever use their foundation brushes?

Kurips ... Coach Factory Outlet sale tomorrow. I've finally been invited!! I feel so special! :girl y:
Maybe they are just busy? I don't know Frown Hope you get your stuff soon!
Quote from kurips :
I drink soda at home because it's much cheaper than buying them at restaurants :l ol: I'm tempted to buy small bottles/cans. So we can have them only once in a while. I'll see what DH has to say about that idea. When we have them in large bottles, we tend to finish them fast for the freshness :l ol:

I like the extreme cheddar goldfish :te ehee:

The money I spend at Express seems not worth it if I just look like F21.



:wo ot: I shouldn't buy any more bags. I have tons I haven't used. I decided against the Express bag I was eyeing for that reason :a ngel_not I'm reallly currently using only one to work since many of mine are not big enough for the stuff I need to bring.
Ohhhh - goldfish are yum!

I'm really getting disappointed with Coach. They act like this factory sale thing is such a huge deal, these are purses that were manufactured to be sold at that price point for the most part. It seems misleading that they act like they are $300 - $400 bags when they are rarely more than $119 at the outlet. It's not even the boutique stuff...it's like it's own brand. Like AK is to Anne Klein and Reaction is to Kenneth Cole...it's like Coach Lite.
Quote from GoHeels :
My nails were so weak the fake nails were painful, but I tried them several times anyway. I would just go back to biting them, when I had them removed. When my nails were painted, I would scrape off the polish with my teeth. :bl ush: I know how hard it is to quit. I hope you find something that works for you. :hu g:
That is the only thing I like on my body right now. I have and always have had wonderful hands and nails. People always thing I have fake nails (even though they are a tasteful length) and I always have them polished nicely. Nail polish ALWAYS fits Wink
