Thats a neat little verse. I have never heard it before. I am sorry
for all of your hassle. I have more than once overdrawn my account
so I know the frustration. I know you said earlier that you were
having problems with your shipping program. Bug (((hugs))) to you! I
hope things get better from here and you have a great weekend!
Michelle
Okay, I'm new to this, but have been following the thread about the
chica who says she only ships once a week and apparently can't even
do that part right.
So who should I avoid like the plague on Ebay? Inquiring minds wanna
know!

This is really corny, but I thought a few of you might enjoy it. (the beginning of this is just so you know what led up to the 'corny' part ;) I'm in the middle of a minor meltdown over here. Somehow my shipping program account accidentally got closed yesterday and I can't get them to open it back up without some type of investigation. Well finally after 6 phone calls and about 3 hours of wasted time I got them to let me open a new account since I wasn't the one who closed the first one. Then I go to check my bank balance before I authorize another postage purchase and low and behold there are $180 in overdraft fees. I call my bank b/c I have no idea why they are there and they explain to me that when your 'available balance' goes negative everything in your pending transactions gets charged an overdraft fee. Well thanks a lot, LOL! Anyways this is all very minor but I am such an emotional person that I cry at the drop of a pin. So I start freaking out like someone
just kidnapped my dog. (Here comes the corny part . . .) Then all of a sudden in the middle of my minor meltdown I think of something . . . .
"How you climb up the moutain is just as important as how you get down the mountain. And, so it is with life, which for many of us becomes one big gigantic test followed by one big gigantic lesson. In the end, it all comes down to one word, Grace. It's how you accept the winning and the losing, good luck and bad luck, the darkness and the light."
This little saying is on my bottle of Amazing Grace body wash. It sits in my shower head bottle holder thing and I read it every single morning in the shower. I don't consciously (spell?) read it, it's just there so I read it as I rinse soap off. This isn't the first time I have noticed this saying pop back into my head during a minor meltdown. It's amazing how such a small thing (a saying on a body wash bottle) can actually impact your life. Anyways I just had to take a second to share this with you all. Thanks, Lisa :)

HI! I got my refund from our honey-doll Sunny.
Here's the deal about my mom--She did have a heart attack and they
are doing bypass surgery today. My husbo and I will head over there
after we deliver our two foster kids to their gramma (WAH! They
have lived with us for 6 months. Girl 16 months and boy just turned
5.)
What an emotional roller coaster! Kids leaving, mom sick and to
selfishly top it off, the husbo and I had reservations at a "fancy
hotel" for our anniversary this weekend. Even had reservations for
two resturants that we can never afford! And my sister is at the
coast with her husband having a much needed break from life and
children. They are cutting that short, too.
Okay, I lied, I am not emotional at all. I am scary calm and void
of feelings!! yikes.
Won't be around a computer for a while...so thanks for your prayers !
Steph
Oh Stephanie, I'm so sorry to hear about all this.
You'll definitely be in my thoughts and prayers today.
I don't think you're being selfish at all.. I know
what it is to worry about your parents and I know how
much time alone with your husband is important. It's
what keeps a marriage/friendship alive and eases the
stress of all that's going on around you. It's okay to
be disappointed; no one's going to think less of you
for being so. :0)
I really admire you for being a foster parent. I can
only imagine how you must feel right now.. 6 months is
a long time to parent those sweethearts. They were
lucky to have you, and I'm sure you made a huge
diffence in their lives.
We'll be praying your mom's surgery goes GREAT and she
recovers quickly with no setbacks.
Have a wonderful day!!!!!
Mich
She sent THE EXACT EMAIL!! Too funny. She has experience dealing
with this, obviously...no wonder she has a policy not to leave neg
feedback for nonpayment or late pay or whatever!
HeeHee
Stephanie
but if any of you gals are pray-ers, my family sure could
use it right now.
Oh no Stephanie,I will,me praying for her.Please let us know how she is.

I ordered from "Sunny" wednesday before all the negative posts, she
says mine will ship next week. We'll see!
I am pretty much brand new to the world of mineral makeup. I had my
first real experience with it last Sunday at the Women's Fair here in
Wichita. A company called Dechant Sheer Minerals was there and they
did a make over on me. I'm now sold on the concept but am not sure
what to buy.
I'd like to just get a good kit and then buy sample sizes of eye
colour. I'm extremely fair with strawberry blonde hair and blue
green eyes. So what kit would you ladies recommend?
Thanks!
Bliss
I like the Baby Grand colors, but I love the Goddess kit! There
great!
Michelle
Hi Lisa,
Thank you so much for that recommendation. I was leaning toward the Goddess kit so I'll definitely go for that now. I'm excited to try Gossamer.
Thanks again!

LMBO!! You are crackin' me up! You've got her harrassing you now trying to make her point that she was right and you were wrong. This is what I was talking about in my ebay "lesson" a few weeks ago. Sellers amaze me. If it were me I would like oh my gosh, I'm so sorry what can I do to make it up to you with all kinds of little frowny faces everywhere LOL. I bend over backwards to fix any problems and sellers like her bend over backwards to make sure the customer knows she was right, when if fact her customer should always be right. It's so sad that sellers don't operate the same way they would if they were selling their items in a real store. If she approached customers the way she is treating this situation she would be out of business in no time. I hope she quits emailing you, LOL. Thanks, Lisa :)
bubby817 <bubby817@...
She just emailed me again... MAKE HER STOP LOL
Hi Michelle,
The date is only when I print the label at http://usps.com NOT when
I ship. Sorry for the confusion. Yes, they should have been shipped
out today - it would have been exactly one week from the END of
auction but again I only ship out once a week. Yours didn't make it
in my postal run last week but will go out in this weeks if you
still wish for them.
Sincerely,
:) Sunny

Hi Michelle,
I'm so sorry, you said you were upset that I'm shipping this out
tomorrow but there is nothing I can do if you don't read the auction
and follow my auction rules. If you don't agree with my shipping
once a week as stated then my only advice is 'don't bid'. I'm really
sorry but in this case there is nothing I can do. You requested to
cancel the transaction and receive a full refund at Paypal so I did
so at your wishes. If you'd like them again with a small gift you
can re-Paypal the money over and I'll send these out straight away
with my postal run tomorrow.
Thanks + Sincerely,
:) Sunny
*sunnyflower*
As far as I know I wasnt the one with the shipping problems I sent
her this..
OK, I bid and paid a week ago. If you ship once a week, my order
would have been shipped by now! Not next week, not tomorrow. I
followed the rules. I have been ebaying for over 5 years now. I know
how this works. Dont go backing out of this like it was my fault! I
still want to know why I got an email from USPS saying my package
was shipped on the 19th
Dear MICHELLE PAUL,
This ship notification is being sent to you by the U.S. Postal
Service® at the request of *SUNNYFLOWER*.
A package with a Click-N-Ship® label created on usps.com containing

To check on the delivery status of your package, please go to Track

Where is it?? You supposedly shipped it on the 19th. You need to get
things straight!

Oh my gosh - did she send you the same email she sent Steph? That's crazy!

Positive this didnt happen. Thanks for accusing me though. We were
wanting to try this mascara and saw your great feedback so thought
it was safe. I am sure you know who they are, cause their mad also.
I believe selling things you dont have is illegal also. Kinda think
that thats what you might have done.
Sunny <sunnyflower2004@...
I'm just curious as to who all of your 'friends' are? If you are
emailing people after the fact that is called transaction inference
and is against ebay rules. Just thought I'd give you a head's up in
case you didn't know. If anyone were to report you for that at
safeharbor your account could possibly be suspended for that =(

Hi Iris! I recommend the Goddess kit! It is truly the most for your money in my opinion. You get a blush, allover face color, three eye colors, lip bud, lip liner, lip gloss and three brushes. Definitely go for the Goddess kit!! The colors are very pretty and Gossamer is GORGEOUS! Don't ever hesitate to ask questions! Thanks, Lisa ;)
Iris <rauda@...
So you would say it's worth the money? I think it's about $60 right? I want to buy a color kit like that (it'll be my first from BE) and I want one with nice wearable colors. I was also thinking about the Goddess kit? Have you tried that one? Which one would you prefer/recommend?
Sorry for all the questions, but I'm curious. lol
Thank you. Take care!

Just sent her this. Hopefully I get my money back.
After talking to my husband, this is silly. You clearly say I am
happy to accommodate for your complete satisfaction and happinesss.
Whether that means a return, refund, shipment of a replacement item
or a small gift to insure your complete satisfaction. If you no
longer want the item, please let me know I can cancel the
transaction. I do not award negative feedback for non-paying bidders
or late pay. You can rest assured, Ebay is just a hobby for me and
only like to see people happy =) I would like my money back. I can
get this from another seller without the hassel and misleading emails

Hey Steph! Why does she even know that rule? I've been on ebay for 2 years now and that's the first time I've ever seen that page that she sent you. I would have never known the name to even look up that page. Hmmp . . . strange. Thanks, Lisa :)

I am really confused why I got a notification last Friday that my
order was shipping, when infact it never did. I feel misled. My
friends and I are pretty upset about all of this. I hope that you do
something else to make this matter right.
I am wondering if she was selling things she didnt have. After all
of us ordered she freaked out and had to order from her supplier,
which is why we are waiting so long. You think?
Michelle- who doesnt think my mascara will be in the mail tomorrow...
Hey Steph! So she sent this to you after you sent the email asking for a refund? Does she want our names so she can report us??

I got this email from her after I sent her the email saying at least
three of my friends got the same "mix up" email. I think through
all her honey and doll stuff, she does want our names. Anyway, I
read the thing and we did not break the rule.
I also didn't realize I posted it twice. I am really out of it.
They are flying my mom by helicopter to a bigger hospital and I
can't go (my folks live 3 hours away) because my foster kids are
moving out tomorrow and I have to take care of all that.
BLAH!

Hi Donna! I emailed her a few hours ago. Here's my email . . .
Hi Sunny! I don't understand. I placed my order on Thursday February 17th and pay the very second I won. On February 18th I got a shipping confirmation stating that my package would ship the next day via Priority mail. I had also recommended you to quite a few of my close friends and a few of them purchased and paid the same day I did. They got the very same shipping notifications on Friday, February 18th. We were all elated b/c we thought our mascara would arrive to us by Wedesday or even today (Thursday) at the very latest. Now tonight 1 week after our intial purchase we all got an email stating our mascara samples would ship sometime next week. This is very disappointing. I was aware that you shipped only once a week, but that would mean that this Saturday would be the latest I would have expected my item to ship. I am very disappointed b/c I was under the impression that my items had already shipped. Hopefully there is a way you can get our items shipped this
weekend. I believe each of my friends have already emailed you too, but if you need their names please let me know. I would really appreciate it if we could all get our items shipped quicker than next week sometime. I am a powerseller on ebay and when I saw that you had good feedback, I felt confident recommending you. I'm hoping this was just a major oversight and I really hope it can be fixed easily. We are all anxiously awaiting our precious mascara samples. Thanks, Lisa :)

I do have a slight problem with this. I used the Buy It Now on 2/18 (Friday). I got a shipment email from you (or through USPS) that it was shipping on 2/19 (Saturday). Now, if you only ship once a week, it should be by 2/25 (Friday or 2/26 Saturday). "Mid next week" is actually a week and a half from when I closed the auction, and would mean shipment would be somewhere around 3/3??? What can we do to drop this in the mail sooner?
Thank you,

Here is my reply:
Sunny. I read the rules regarding "transaction inference" and this
situation does not remotely resemble breaking this ebay rule.
We heard about this great mascara, sounded cool. One of us found
your auction, and we all ordered from you. Which should have been a
pretty sweet deal for you, since we are all addicted to makeup!
Everyday we have been asking each other if we "got it yet" and
abusing our postman for not bringing it! We have not been
contacting other ebay buyers or otherwise breaking this rule. We
are not the parties whom may be conducting business on ebay unwisely.
I would like a PROMPT refund, please.
Thank you,

No way I got the same email! Did you get the shipping label info saying that it would ship Priority mail on Saturday?

Hi Sunny. I read that you only shipped once a week. I won this
auction a week ago and I paid immediately. I figured it would have
been in the mail by now. If you ship once a week, and it has been a
week it seems that your shipping day would have came by now and my
item mailed. To be honest I have been looking for it in the mail. I
hope that you will ship sooner than next week. I am pretty
disapointed in your slow service.

Did anyone else use this seller? And is she doing the same thing to
you?
Michelle :(
I got mine on tuesday. I used them yesterday, I am not sure though.
The real dark one almost looks like a big bruse on my eye. I need to
play more before I decide.

So you would say it's worth the money? I think it's about $60 right? I want to buy a color kit like that (it'll be my first from BE) and I want one with nice wearable colors. I was also thinking about the Goddess kit? Have you tried that one? Which one would you prefer/recommend?
Sorry for all the questions, but I'm curious. lol
Thank you. Take care!
vvvvI R I S <3vv
& vx so kiss me one last time.v

I am still waiting for mine. I keep thinking maybe today is the
day...
Michelle
I totally understand. I sometimes feel like its crazy of me to have
so many because I know how many years it would take to use this
stuff. I cant help it though! The colors are so pretty!
Michelle
This group was unavailable to me, too. I just figured there was a
shut down. What up, Lisa?
Hi there! Welcome to the group! Good for you on starting to take care of yourself! ;) I would suggest starting with the foundation, mineral veil, and maybe a blush and eye color? I have a special going on on my website where you can get 4 samples for $10. That's a great start. That way you can try the products and see if you like them before investing in them. If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to ask. Thanks, Lisa :)

I am new to the group. I am African American 43yrs. I am starting
my new life now. The kids are grown and now it's time for mama. As
part of the taking care of mama plan, I wanted to try this new make
up. It's new to me, I saw part of a infromercial, not enough to
really understand much, it was the last few minutes of it. I
presently cant wear much makeup, my skin is sensitive. So gals
PLEASE HELP ME, IM OPEN FOR SUGGESTIONS. HOW DO I GET STARTED?

Never having used any other primers before, I just have to agree with
everthing that has already been posted. Feels smooth as glass/silk
once it's on and the minerals just glide on, (of course they go on
great even without any primers.)
I got mine and loved it. My daughter and I fought over the colors,
we're both very fair, but even the darker colors are very wearable.
I'm glad I had some extra jars to split things up, those crazy 12
year olds think they should get everything:) She got the brushes
which is one of the reasons why I ordered it. The blush is very
light, even for us, but would also make a great shadow. Over all, I
loved the kit!
Hey Jenn! Do you know anything about silicone based products? I know that you make your own face soaps right? I was just curious if you know of any silicone based products causing break-outs? My face breaks out from anything. When I read the reviews of the primer on makeupalley.com it seemed quite a few of the people had broken out from it. Thanks, Lisa :)
Hi Lisa :)
Yes I use silicones in some of my lotions but at very low percentages....like 2 and 3%.They feel very nice in formulas.I have not tried my hand at making the higher % ones....yet :)
I have heard that some people are sensitive to them.
I can dig out some research papers if you want them.

LMBO!!! Thanks for the laugh!!! Before BE I could keep everything in this tiny makeup bag that was about 5x8. NOW . . . Lookout! My brush collection alone wouldn't even fit in that tiny bag. I have a huge tackle box thing on my vanity that has 24 drawers and each drawer holds b/w 4-8 jars (depending on the size of the jar). The amazing thing is the addiction catches on with almost everyone who tries BE, it's CRAZY!!! :) So just know you aren't alone! Thanks, Lisa

So. I have been reading the reviews and giving reviews...lots of
fun. But I started thinking about Victoria's request for our
favorite eye colors and combos. I read everyones' responses and
realized I only had ONE of the colors out of all the colors listed.
POOR ME!! So, I went in and counted...and I have 24 COLORS!!!!
Shouldn't it seem, (back when we were sane!) that 24 eye colors is
alot? But apparently it is not near enough!! Nor, is it a lot in
this crazy world of BE ADDICTION!
I remember, through the haze of my addiction, that I thought I
was 'da bomb' when I bought a Revlon eye kit that had FIVE shades.

Oh my, Jade...that was too funny. I finally got it on, then I couldn't get it off! I finally got it off about 10 minutes ago. I ran out of the Almay remover pads (love them!), so I dug out the Nuetragena non-oily eye makeup remover stuff....took it right off. Hehehe. I'll just go hang in the corner and let the blush fade! ROFL
Hugs,
Donna
Jade <rebekahn@...
LOL! That is too funny! I cleanse with Purity cleanser and it takes it right off. Then if I don't get all of my eye liner off, I use Almay's make up remove pads (non-oily) to take the rest away. How much did you use? I usually only use a dab on each eye and then spread it around with my ring finger.

Oh, I've been wearing Unstoppable since Monday...it's the bomb. No smudges, woo hoo...my bottom eyeliner stays put too instead of making a raccoon mess with the mascara smudgies. LOL. I'm glad I like it so much...sounds like Blinc is awesome...but sooo pricey! Does anyone really toss their mascara after 3 months?? I think I was on 8 for the one I just tossed. Found the Rimmel too...but thought I'd stop while I was ahead.

Hey Jerri! Thank you so much for the review. I'm amazed that it held up through crying. It is VERY expensive. I figured I would hold onto the little tubes for special occasions and now it looks like weddings or any other emotional events. :) I can't wait to get mine! Did it make your lashes look any longer or fuller than your regular mascara? Thanks, Lisa
Jerri <jigismine@...
I must say that this is a very good mascara. I put it on this
morning before going to work. Put on two coats cause I like a
dramatic look. I wore it all day, even washed my car. When I came
home I sat down and started to watch Oprah. Then, Man oh man, did I
have a good cry. The woman that had the 300 lb tumor removed started
it then the lady that had a baby while stuck in a tree during a flood
opened my floodgates. The show was about real tragic events caught on
film. After Oprah, I had a powernap. Absolutely no smearing or
smudging.
Just got out of the bath and indeed, it comes off in tubes. Just like
the ad says. I thought my eyelashes were coming off but it was just
the mascara. That was kind of neat because it came off all at once so
no scrubbing the racoon rings in the tub.
I also wear contacts and it had no effects on the contacts at all.
The only downfall to this product that I can see is the price. I just
can't bring myself to pay 25.00 for a tube of mascara that only lasts
3 months. It's a shame that it is not more affordable. The sample
that was 7.00 is very small and I'm sure that unlike mineral makeup it
won't last long.
Well, for those of you who can afford it. I recommend it.

Hi Donna! I'm so glad that you are happy with the Urban Decay primer. It's fantastic isn't it!!! I've never used anything that could keep my shadows put for so long either. I usually wash my eye area when I wash my face and the shadows come off. Like Jade said sometimes the liners are stubborn and don't want to budge, so I use a little baby lotion on a cotton ball and they come right off. :) Thanks for the fun reviews! Lisa
BTW, where is our mascara?!? Jerri - that's no fair that you already got yours LOL. We will have to live vicariously through you while we stalk our poor mailmen!!! ;)
Donna Conner <angel91805@...
OK, Still no Blinc mascara, hoping for tomorrow!
So, it is 7pm....and this primer potion ROCKS! My eyeshadow is still where I put it 12 1/2 hrs ago. I highly recommend this!!!! I've benn wearing eyeshadow...what? 20 yrs now and this is the first time that nothing has diverted into the creases!!! OMG...my eyeliner is still where I put it too!!! ROFL! I'm doing the happy happy boogie dance!!!!
And now that I have probably driven you all nuts with my reviews...I'll go back into my corner (after I scope ebay for Smashbox primer!)

***Sometimes in life you just have to stand back and punt.***
OK...no mascara here yet either, maybe today! But I got my Urban Decay Primer Potion yesterday, so I thought I would post a day long review!
Cute bottle! I had a bit of a problem getting it ON. LOL. Please note I am legally blind in one eye, so it's hard to get anything on even on the other eye, since I have to leave my eye partially open to see what in the heck I am doing. So, I sort of glopped it on my eyelid and then used my pinkie to smooth it out. Put on my Present and wandered into the bedroom to sit down on the bed, wait for it all to dry, and watch the news. First thing I noticed was how creamy and smooth it was. Very nice. Then as it dried, I sort of had the tightening feeling on my lids. You know that tightening feeling you get with face masks as they dry? Same thing. Now, I'm thinking "ok...may be a good idea considering how oily these eyelids are!". On to eyeshadow. Now, I know I am not imagining things, but my daily combination of Bare Skin over all, and Heart in the creas and outer edge topped with Bark liner...well, it was more vibrant in color! And the shadow just sort of glided on.
So yeah. Off to a good start. I topped it all with Maybelline's Unstoppable (that I finally found Sunday). Not too shabby looking this morning.
OK....next review...noonish!
Hugs,
Donna
***Sometimes in life you just have to stand back and punt.***
Pretty! Thanks for the recipe Mich! ;) I love mixing Clear Radiance in my foundation, so I'm sure Gossamer will work great too. Thanks, Lisa

Hi,
I thought I'd share this recipe that I found. I really

As soon as I hit "send" I realized "Oh no, I didn't include SoHo and Retro!"

Hi Susan! The flocked sponge gives you heavier coverage. :) This is a quick rundown of how to do it. ;) If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask them.
Take a flocked makeup sponge, dip into your foundation and apply onto your
entire face in downward strokes. Let minerals warm up on your skin for about
a minute or so. Check the coverage. If you need more, continue applying
foundation in layers until you are satisfied with the coverage.
The sprays . . . . I think the sprays are fine. :) I have very sensitive skin so I can't use anything but purified water, but I do believe that most of the light sprays for mineral makeup have mousturizing benefits too. I'm not sure if the sprays actually help to keep the minerals on any longer though. I wouldn't say I noticed that benefit. You just have to make sure if you try any of the sprays that it has a very fine mister so you don't spray your face and run your makeup. ;)
I'm so glad we are all trying the Blinc Kiss Me mascara together! This will be fun! We should all get them around the same time too b/c it said she only shipped one day a week. I can't wait to test it out! And I can't wait to hear everyone's reviews! YAY! Let me know if you have any other questions about anything at all. :) Thanks, Lisa
. . . . the night I bought my Blinc mascara samples she had 19 available, now she has 9!!! LMBO! That's awesome! I'm glad to know that we enable each other so much! I'm also glad to know I'm not alone trying these new tubes out! ;)

Hi, Lisa,
Just a note to ask you how and why to use a flocked sponge! I read some chat
you and one of the members wrote about it a while back and can't find it, so I
thought you might give me the brief "Flocked Sponge 101 course".
And sprays to set mineral makeup--what is your opinion?
Thanks, Susan Hirsch
PS I bought some of those Blinc Kiss Me mascara, too! Should be fun to try!
Will let you know how it works when I try it. Want to know what you think, too!
Hey Dawn! No, I haven't heard anything about that yet. Hmmm. They need to come out with some lighter neutral shades. #2.3 is the only neutral shade and it's too dark for most women. I hope they come out with some neutrals. ;) Thanks for the tip. I'll have to keep my eyes and ears open for the news of new shades. Thanks, Lisa =)
Have you heard about BE coming out with some more foundation shades??? My mom had a makeover done and at tha time they said something to her about have some lighter shades and more cool shades coming out in foundation...but I have never heard anything about it???

Hey Dawn! I've never heard of this mascara. I'm confused. It makes tubes on your lashes?? Please explain, LOL. Thanks, Lisa =)
I just got the Kiss Me mascara by Blinc. It is the mascara that won't come off or smudge ----- it makes "tubes" on your eyelashes ! (and yes it does!!!!!!)--then to get it off all you have to do is use warm water and slight pressure and gently pull the tubes off!
IT IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!
My lashes looked unbelievable and get this! I had to use some eyedrops because my contacts were giving me a fit! Not one smudge! I forgot this evening I still had the mascara on...rubbed my eyes NO SMUDGE!! So I go to take off my makeup....warm water very gently pull....all the tubes pull right off! It is the weirdest thing but I am HOOKED!!!!
It is spendy but if I took all the mascaras that are sitting at the bottom of my makeup drawer.. I couldn't have bought 4 of these!!
Well back to lurking

Just goes to show, not everybody likes the same things. I LOVE the
rimmell brushless. I put mascara on after my eyeshadow so I don't
risk touching the wet lashes and them sticking together. Other than
that and having to be careful not to open my eyes to wide before it
dries, I think it's great. Sorry you didn't like it, I know I gave
it a great review previously.
Just got the Rimmel mascara with the comb applicator...YUCK!!
I couldn't make my eye lashes look nice. There goes $6.49...live
and learn. BUT-the store gave me a sample of the Rimmel "long
lasting" lipstick and I kinda like it. I usually don't like
lipstick that claims to stay on for hours cuz I feel too dry.
Just my two cents on that.
Stephanie
Thanks...there is one near me. I will look there first. Better to save
on shipping.

Hey Donna!!
I'm pretty sure Rimmel is a Walmart brand or maybe just carried at Walmart. I don't remember seeing it anywhere else. I also have never tried it. I have bought a ton of different mascaras in the last few weeks trying to find a smudge proof one and Unstoppable was the best. :)
I can definitely help you with the shadow and liner problem! I have the oiliest eye lids around! The Urban Decay Primer Potion is by far the BEST! It is the only thing I have ever tried that keeps my shadows on. I also use Visine to wet line my liners. I've also noticed that my liners stay on better if I apply them before my shadows. If you need any other help, just ask. Thanks, Lisa

OK...time to ask you experts!
First problem....smudging of mascara under the eye. I'm going to check out another Walgreens or Walmart for the Maybelline Unstoppable. What about this Rimmel? Where do you get that?
Second...my eyeliner disappears about 4 hours after putting it on. Now...the lower liner, smudges in w/ the mascara...but where does the top liner go?? I'm using Bark...normally dry lined, have tried wet lining for the past 3 days and it still goes bye bye. It isn't the Bark, either. I lose my liner w/ Sex Kitten, or Soft Black, or Brocade, or Firefly...or or or...you get the idea.
Third...my eyeshadow tends to go the way of the eyeliner. Or cakes happily in the crease. I do have tad oily eyelids. I don't use moisterizer on my lids...I DO use a primer, very thinly or BE's Skin Rev-R-Upper. Same thing happens if I don't use the primer. How can I prevent this??? I REALLY do not want to have to lug around several brushes and my eye colors of the day.
Any ideas????
Thanks!

Does anyone have the Color by Numbers set?
I've been wanting to buy it, but I don't use the Soft focus colors I
have as it is (except for shadows)...anyone have an opinion on the new
colors?

Well, I *try* to remember to wash my brushes every other week. Some times it goes to 3 weeks. I use baby shampoo, too. Since I might change eye colors during the week, I will rinse out my eye brushes daily, just with water....sort of drying them on a tissue to make sure all the color is out...then the next morning, if I'm using different colors, then I don't have to scrounge around for another eye shadow brush. Now, the foundation/veil/radiance/blush brush just gets a bath every other week. I may have to try the baby wipes....I think I have some in the linen closet just doing nothing. Hehhe.
Hugs,
Donna

Hey Bev! I bought the Baby Grand collection for the site. :) I wash my brushes every other week. I use baby shampoo b/c it's really gentle and cheap. The more you wash them, the longer they will last. And as Jade said they get really yucky with all kinds of yummy build-up. I use Michelle's tip about the baby wipes too. I keep a small box of them on my vanity and whenever I change to a new eye color or blush I gently wipe the brush. Thanks, Lisa =)

I got the baby grand also. I am somewhat having buyers remorse
though, I am unsure how these colors are going to turn out. I might
want to return it.
As for brushes, I know once a week is what their supposed to be
washed. I am not too good at remembering to do it though. I did read
a tip awhile back though, use a baby wipe each day to wipe your
brushes off and it helps keep the build up under control. I do this
when I can remember. It makes it nice when I change colors, my
brushes are clean and ready to go!

My daughter and I watched the whole show, ordered the baby grand,
she'll get the brushes and we'll fight over the colors:) She's 12 so
she'll probably win! They had me hold when I ordered so they could
talk to me live, I was gonna mention this site:)but they sold out!!
they didn't want to talk after that, a recording came on and said
sorry, they sold out. Oh well. At least I can talk to ya'll:)
Oooo,V,that's very pretty!!!
I love that.I had never tried faux mink either.Looks like that's going to
go on my sample list.
Thanks so much,
Jenn A
Darn, How come I cannot see this attachment? It says "attachment not
stored"?
Leslie
I bought the baby grand kit!
I wash my by brushes whenever BE is on QVC. Once every two or three
months. Sometimes more if the urge strikes.
V
Well, I totally missed the QVC shows yesterday. Forgot completely :(
Turned the tv on last night & saw the last 10 minutes of the last
show...they say the mind is the first to go...
SO!!! What did you all buy???
and how often do you wash your kubuki brush??
Bev :)

Have you tried Urban Decay's Primer potion? It works like glue for me. I had the same problem - bark disappearing on me, and having to touch up my makeup at lunch because most of it goes bye bye. Since using the PP, I have none of those problems. If you aren't looking for an all over eye lid primer, I'd suggest using Shelaq - it's a liquid you can mix your dry minerals with to line with instead of water.
