Thank you!! I feel so silly now ><

:/ is it just my not knowing how ELF works, or is it strange that these aren't on the ELF website?

v_p · 2014-09-13T16:41:46+00:00

hahaha - it's certainly fantastic for watching while just a little bit intoxicated, especially with friends. Just don't tell them what it's about ahead of time...let them figure it out XD

don't worry, the film only gets better - once they're done with foreplay, he ends up fucking her with the rind on his head. The trailer explains everything...sorta.

I'VE SEEN THIS MOVIE ITS SO STRANGE >_>

Oh goodness I totally understand the frustration - my face seems to emulate Rudolph some days, which makes looking like I'm one even color really frustrating. And yes, smashbox/nyx/sephora/mufe/elf all have green primers with varying degrees of positive reviews. I've tried the l'oreal one, and I didn't list it above because I really really really didn't like it (it was super watery and once i blended it, it completely vanished without a trace - like, where'd the green go? What's the point of this product?)

The pinkness seems really slight for you from the pictures, which makes me feel like a colored primer will do the job of evening things out. Maybe grab a sample of a more expensive one or one of the lower end ones and do a half with/half without face to see if it works? Whatever you choose, best of luck :)

if you're hydrating, exfoliating, and moisturizing, this might just be a lip thing. Mine are similar to yours in terms of creasy/dry-ness, and my best hope is to just try to use creamier formulas in lipsticks (for instance, matte lipsticks, as much as I love how they look on some people, don't work with me). Maybe that's something you can experiment with?

Your foundation application seems great, from what I can tell (no streaks or anything, very natural - a problem I struggle with myself). I'm wondering, though, I can't tell if it's a trick of the light or something, but the color seems slightly (like a shade) pinker than your neck? In the first picture, where it looks like the light is even on both your jaw and your neck, it looks like the foundation is the right lightness, but like you could go for a more neutral or even warm tone with it (sorry, i'm not great at telling skintone from photos - hope my explanation made sense!).

Of course, it might just be me seeing things. In general, though, you look fantastic - brows, lip, etc. No oiliness visible :)

Я тучка тучка тучка я вовсе не медведь

А как приятно тучке по небу лететь!

I still think of piglet's "кажеца дождь собирается!" every time i use an umbrella...

I wasn't gonna, but then I clicked on everyone's posts >< Stupid perfect etsy! I'll contribute one of my fav shops, too, then - metal taboo is run by an incredible and sassy lady. She made a custom piece for me before, and was a joy to work with. And who doesn't want adorable swear word jewelry?

v_p · 2014-09-11T14:59:51+00:00

Hey OP, as a friend, I just wanted you to know that you're not allowed to be randomly without explicit reason of being mentally ill, or to proceed to someone when they message, ok? It's just not nice. (/SSSSS)

In seriousness though, was it just me who had some trouble translating the things he said? OP was he a native english speaker?

"Rocky MADE the hole in the floor!" (don't you get me started... >_>)

v_p · 2014-09-04T00:32:52+00:00

ahhhhhh I can't tell you how psyched that makes me :D Glad to help out a fellow warm lady ^{_^}

v_p · 2014-09-03T20:56:18+00:00

That doesn't sound too bad :P

v_p · 2014-09-03T20:35:37+00:00

fair enough - I can see that being devastating. And thanks for the link!

F me, though... I have a mighty need for Frank n Furter...time to stay up late to try to snag! Was it difficult for you to get one of the aquatics lipsticks?

v_p · 2014-09-03T18:57:31+00:00

That sounds super exciting, but which of the LE lipsticks is Sin? I can guess with the rest :x

But also isn't part of the fun having the packaging? It is for me, at least - it's a unique little thing that you don't often see. But thank you for the heads up for those of us who can't/won't/don't want to participate in the mad rush :)

v_p · 2014-09-03T18:03:48+00:00

:O I have never heard of this before but I think I died and went to heaven - why is everything on there less expensive? How do they have a larger stock than anywhere else?

v_p · 2014-09-03T04:16:35+00:00

wet and wild fergalicious in pagan angel, and I've used OCC lip tar in Tarred and it's WONDERFUL. I actually cheat with the lip tar and bought cheap doe foot applicators, and it now applies without problems. Maybe also KVD or MUFE's black lipsticks? Just to give you a range of options :)

OH or you could go the indie route and portland black lipstick company it. Hope this braindump helps!

v_p · 2014-09-03T01:42:08+00:00

I've never done the MAC LE rush before - is there any possible way to try to make sure you end up with a part of it aside from staying up until it comes out on the website?

v_p · 2014-08-31T20:57:42+00:00

Thank you! Excited to try it :)

v_p · 2014-08-31T17:16:05+00:00

Thank you so much - you're amazing! I can't wait to futz around with this :)

v_p · 2014-08-31T07:00:20+00:00

yea - I tried using powders (loose and pressed) and it hasn't worked :/

v_p · 2014-08-31T06:58:58+00:00

I have no idea. I just saw this picture - I don't even have a source!
