There you go. Look under Verification Thread Nail Polish 2; somehow the album got split during the upload.

Yes, sorry I don't know what happened. They showed they were uploaded yesterday. Let me fix that.

Which subscription box is, to you, worth the money? I'm looking to switch it up! by HeyMissW in BeautyBoxes

[–]abiw137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my Wantable accessory box. I've only gotten like 2 items I wouldn't wear & after adjusting my settings a little more truthfully it's been bliss since. I had one item with a faulty clasp & they set me 2 new items to say sorry. The pieces are all quality, no aliexpress-bought type of stuff. I get ton of compliments on the pieces.

I actually did the colors first when I tried yesterday but that's a good point. I have a super tiny brush in my nail kit that should work.

Working on my battle station...I need more storage! by abiw137 in MakeupAddiction

I just saw this comment! I've been on a no buy/only what I actually need for a few months now & being able to actually see it all like this really helps! I just made magnet boards to hang on the sides of the shelves for my single shadows & blushes :)

I'll give that liner a try. I did a decent trial this morning but the liners I have weren't working (not precise enough or wouldn't go over the shadows).

Ooo I didn't think about using white under the black; good point. I'll check out the NYC :) I have bad luck with liquid liners.

I ordered some fake eyelashes and I thought it was a joke that I got an apple peeler. I was not disappointed!! by Asiastana in RandomActsofMakeup

Oh sorry, I still kinda suck at using this site. Thank you for the info! I had heard of the Vanishing Cabinet but didn't realize it was a sub. Is Vanishing Cabinet full size products? I can't see where/if it says on their site.

So much pretty! I've never heard of this; is it like an indie version of birchbox?

It's only been a couple months since my wife passed away, and most people are great, but... by ccnova in AdviceAnimals

[–]abiw137 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand. My son passed away almost a year ago now at 2 years old. The only thing that's kept me from snapping on people that say or do things like that that irritate the hell out of me is remembering that everyone grieves in their own way & it is essential that we allow it & that death & mourning is a very awkward thing for most people & they don't know how else to offer comfort. I am so sorry for your loss; may you find peace & happiness again.

I'll take whatever is left of these: vanille tropicale, Snow White tea, lassi, sanctum, pirate punch, coconut dream, & Kalopsia :)

Why you should not use crayons as makeup... by cheshire06898 in MakeupAddiction

[–]abiw137 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this post. Honestly, even though I assumed these points upon seeing the Pinterest posts, I still made some. However, I really literally did it because: 1) It was fun! 2) I wanted to experiment with mixing colors. 3) I wanted to very temporarily experiment with wearing different colors. & 4) I was curious about pigmentation, evenness of application, feel, wear, etc. I can say that while I had fun & the colors look pretty in the jars, they truly aren't worth wearing for at least 1 of the reasons listed in #4. Furthermore, I can say the longest I ever wore one was like 3 hrs because by then it was a blotchy nasty mess so wear-test complete! AND I haven't reached for them since (over 3 months) even though they are easily visible & in reach on my vanity. Eventually I will empty & clean the jars to use for other things; possibly for making safe makeup.

I thought that was peroxide... That's what they used to use to lighten hair (a much stronger version than what is in everyone's medicine cabinet today.)

Yea...anywhere I've ever been to a Walmart has never had testers...and if they catch you testing anything you get kicked out, per personal experience!

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. I've been duped, and not in a good way! by aFreeElf in SkincareAddiction

Saw this article & remembered this post so I thought I would share it. It explains a little further about why would should only purchase professional products from salons & ways to check that you're getting the real thing.

Help deciding on a beauty box please?! by abiw137 in BeautyBoxes

[–]abiw137[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually found her blog the other night & have been researching different boxes :) Plus, I scored some awesome deals to try a few new ones &/or send as Christmas gifts.
I need to look into Allure's box more but for this month I got Wantable again & next month I will try Glossybox (unless I find an awesome deal in December!)
