a board member made me...

[befsquire]

want to buy it.

so i was recently captivated by how perfect heiress' eyelashes are, and had to have whatever mascara she uses so that i could have long, non-clumpy lashes.

thank you, heiress, for telling me about lash stylist. I never would have bought a comb style type of mascara were it not for you. product:

the picture is shittier as it gets larger thus i made it small, but this is the result (photo taken 12 hours after application):

what have you bought or done because of a board member?

[beastiegirrl101]

[befsquire]

[beastiegirrl101]

your lashes look amazing.

[HEIRESS]

ITS SERIOUSLY THE BEST MASCARA EVER

and ye ye beth, I cant tell that they look fucking awesome
glad you like it!

:) :)

[ShotgunBoy]

hehe!:)

[abcdefz]

what have you... done because of a board member?




...lengthened my ignore list. :D

[Waus]

Believe it or not I got really into The Eels over some offhand comment from beastieangel01. She was complaining about them being on The O.C. or something. I have no idea why that prompted me to look into them.

they were on sale, I ate them with some toasts, they were delishous.

[befsquire]

please don't make me look in the cooking thread to see who suggested it.

[Lyman Zerga]

without this board i would have never tried dr pepper

i wouldnt even know that it exists

thank you board

[befsquire]

do you like diet drinks? because diet dr. pepper is pretty fantastic.

[Kerrbear]

thank you, heiress, for telling me about lash stylist. I never would have bought a comb style type of mascara were it not for you.

OK, I just bought it today. I'm such a sucker for marketing. We'll see what happens tomorrow, I hope to be stopping men in their tracks.

[Lyman Zerga]

do you like diet drinks?

yeah


for me to poop on!

[befsquire]

OK, I just bought it today. I'm such a sucker for marketing. We'll see what happens tomorrow, I hope to be stopping men in their tracks.
i swear you will.

i put it on tonight, right before we got in the car. so we get in the car, and i'm fucking around with the seat and bobby was just staring at my eyelashes and kept commenting on how fucking long they are. they've always been that long, you just couldn't tell because my mascara wasn't that great.

[Kerrbear]

i swear you will.

I wonder if this company also makes bras...?

[HEIRESS]

its basically the best mascara Ive ever used

and Im always asked what brand I use, and its not because i have long lashes I just have lashes that take well to mascara, but this is like THE Best ever

sweet lord

actually I cut off my lashes as a kid with safety scissors and there are a couple spot on my eyes where I cut the skin or something and no lashes grow anymore
:(

[befsquire]

good thing you're hot, then. you can get away with a missing eyelash (that no one but you notices). :)

[HEIRESS]

yeah, its like my lil secret!

[na§tee]

:eek: i am totally going to buy this mascara tomorrow! looking good, b. i've always noticed heiress' eyelashes too so i'm defo going to become a part of the mascara club. spanks!

[Freebasser]

Me too!

[venusvenus123]

^ haha:D

well i'm not sure about this mascara. i will try it tho, but i swear by the white stuff that you put on before the mascara. i've invested in it pretty heavily for the mo. it totally transforms your lashes. maybe i'll try this maybe-lline when i've run out of my current stash, but i find my white booster difficult to give up. maybe i'll combine the two to devastating effect! :)

anyway, here's mine:

http://www.lancome.co.uk/img/_db/packshots/b_144029.jpg

= amazing lashes. mascara is serious business.

[HEIRESS]

NOOOOOO THE WHITE BOOSTER IS THE DEVIL AND A TOTALY PISS AROUND

I tried that sort of set-up before and used it only once before tossing it because it took too long and it made shitsies clumpy

this stuff will give you the same effect without the 2 steps!

[cosmo105]

i have naturally thick (although not that long) lashes and i look pretty ridiculous if i wear volumizing stuff. like, tarantulas on the face ridiculous. i just use plain ol' black or navy vegan stuff. :o

a board member made me watch UFC matches with him.

[befsquire]

i had no idea there was vegan mascara. for real, is there beef and dairy in my non-vegan mascara?

[Lyman Zerga]

or just one that doesnt get tested on poor lil baby pets!

[cosmo105]

i had no idea there was vegan mascara. for real, is there beef and dairy in my non-vegan mascara?
if anything, gelatin or other byproducts. most lipstick, i know, has fish oil in it...and yeah, it's tested on animals. maybelline (a division of l'oreal) supposedly doesn't test its finished products on animals, but they haven't stated that they don't test their ingredients on them. which means they probably do.

[Lyman Zerga]

i use labello

im shit at being a veggie :(

freebie made me do it! arrest him!

i will try it. but only when i've run out of my current supply. i found the cheap white stuff is crap, which is why i tried the more expensive variety.

[HEIRESS]

wise and well pocket lined you are venus!

though the $ and time saved with this shit will be doubley worth it mrs. V!

I hope anyways, I only know one person that ive recommended it to IRL that hated it but she said her eyeslashes go gay with many many a mascara so it wasnt a big surprise to her

i was trying to edit that post, when my computer crashed.

there are three make-up products i spend money on: foundation, compact and mascara, or anything else you put on your eyes. anything else i use l'oreal or whatever. in my many years of experience i've found that the expensive stuff lasts longer (mascara) and is better on your skin.

i was also going to say that i don't think i could ever get lashes as lovely as yours ... or beth's! i may post a pic one day.

[HEIRESS]

I only ever spend stupid amounts of money on really good eye shadows because they have the most vivid colors

19 bucks a pop for a single shadow is stupid! Im stupid! GAH!

[zorra_chiflada]

hah girls

[monkey]

i spend too much money on mascara cause it's basically the only thing i use. but i use both department store and drugstore kinds, and i like them both equally. i should pick up this heiress find.

[Kerrbear]

i swear you will.

Well, I haven't had to scare away any men who couldn't resist the allure of my new eyelashes (YET!) but it is really good stuff. My eyelashes hit my glasses now. I'm a convert. (It does help to use a curler first.) Thanks Heiress and Bef!

[venusvenus123]

hah girls
yeah, you wish you were a girl eh.

[na§tee]

i totally had this in my sweaty palm of joy this afternoon. it was a waterproof version. they also had a sexy christmas GLITTER version but i thought that was too d.i.s.c.o. i didn't buy it in the end cos i already spent £45 in h&m on a dress which is way too adventurous for me and it was my lunch break. maybe tomorrow or the end of the week! i have to go to boots to buy weekend break toiletries and stuff so we'll see! £6.99 it costs here.

[zorra_chiflada]

thanks.

Believe it or not I got really into The Eels over some offhand comment from beastieangel01. She was complaining about them being on The O.C. or something. I have no idea why that prompted me to look into them.

rock.

you so owe me? :p :)

[Dockta Majick]

All right so I gave in and bought it too. It does really extend the lashes but my lashes seem to stick together after I apply. I try to use a separate lash comb afterwards but it doesn't totally unstick them. Any advice? Do I need a better technique?

[HEIRESS]

I said this in reply to one of the NUMBEROUS pms ive gotten on this topic already

BUT WE SHOULD ALL GET TOGETHER AND BE IN THE NEXT MAYBELLINE COMMERCIAL

[Lyman Zerga]

ba01's shoes made me drink oj

[beastieangel01]

YES!

my influence is starting to be felt more and more. soon enough I can become the evil dictactor I've always wanted to be! MWUAHAHAHAHA

I'm delirious. sorry.

[DandyFop]

Hey, so I tried this mascara but I found it to be fairly clumpy, there was way too much liquid getting on my lashes, and it was like impossibe to get off. I can see the comb does it's thang well but it distributes way too much of the shit. Am I doing it wrong? I just tried some Voluminous shite from L'Oreal and that isn't very good. Blahs.

[na§tee]

clinique do the best mascaras imho. but imma try this out too.

in other news, i'm just waiting for someone to post

"... come."

in this thread (y)

[venusvenus123]

i bought lash stylist yesterday... with my Boots advantage points (Nastee will know what i'm talking about).

yes, me likes. i'm still quite wedded to the feel of a traditional brush, but the results of this one are pretty good.

thanks Beth... and Heiress!

beth, i did actually buy some vans because of you -- not those lovely ones you were wearing tho, as they don't do them over here. i better snap them before they get too dirty looking. haven't quite mastered the transition of digital camera to computer yet tho.

mid-coffee post, not making too much sense yet.

[DandyFop]

I was having the same problem. The only solution I've come up with so far is to start from the very roots of the lashes and wiggle the comb through to the tips. This causes less clumps and doesn't allow the lashes to stick together as much. Also if you use a totally clean mascara wand after you apply, it will take off excess product and the clumps and it will separate the lashes more/better. Hope that helps.

[befsquire]

i just pull the wand out slowly, like i do with every other mascara, to make sure there's not too much on it.

i thought when i made this thread that there'd be more posts about other products, etc., but the power of heiress' eyelashes has made people from all over pick it up, which is awesome. bobby thinks that heiress and i should both get some free from maybelline, because heiress brought it to me and i brought it to everyone's attention. if that's how it works, i would like to bring louis vuitton to everyone's attention at this time.

venus, do you love your new vans? i can't wait to see them. i was hoping that you'd be able to find them online where you could have them shipped to you, but i suppose that could end up costing a fortune if they came from the states.

[na§tee]

it is true. i went to sephora on the champs-elysées and, yes, bought american makeup. but it says pretty french things on it. and it is "professional". my boyfriend thought i was crazy. i was like "YO TAKE A PICTURE FOR MY INTERWEB FRIENDS WITH THIS MASCARA ON THE PARIS METRO" and he's like "great. my money is well spent". but he took a crap photo so i took another one. ET VOILA! imagine what a fool i looked like taking blurry drunk pictures of me holding a mascara on the metro. haha.

http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c361/nastee/IMG_3457.jpghttp://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c361/nastee/IMG_3458.jpg

(of course, i did buy other stuff-you-can't-get-in-the-uk but i thought it was cute)

haven't tried said product yet but am looking foward to it. just got back.

oh, i'm also wearing a jacket that beth once said she liked! so there's a connection! c'est vrai!

[beastieangel01]

I just bought it too ahaha. At first it was weird to me, the wand tripped me out but I find it to be a LOT nicer than the regular ol brush wands.

[jennyb]

LOL, so I bought that mascara this weekend and YESSS, it was buy one get one free, so I got the super black and the brownish black to switch it up a bit! I love it! Thanks Heiress and Beth (y) There should be a cosmetics/beauty forum. Doncha think?

[beastiegirrl101]

of course I bought it too, and I have to post a pic when I get home of my lashes over the weekend...wow.

but I am having the same prob as the others...my lashes stick together so I try to get them from the root and go over and then I just end up globbing more on. I will do the wipe off trick that someone mentioned and report on that later,

thanks Heiress and Bef!

...and I agree with the beauty forum.

[HEIRESS]

HOLY SHIT this looks like its actually part of some cosmetic advertisement two page spread

OOOH LA LA

[HEIRESS]

I usually put on like 2 layers of mascara one after the other real quick like without letting the first layer dry for even 30 seconds

works for me anyways

[befsquire]

i really didn't mean for this thread to be solely about mascara.

hasn't anyone bought anything or gone somewhere or done something on the advice of another member, or whatever they read off of this board? *sigh*

and claire, i do adore that jacket. if you were to travel here, and accidentally left it behind, i would wear it everywhere and take pics of all the places your jacket went to so you could see i'm taking good care of it.

[na§tee]

haha well it's good to know it woulda been taken care of, beff.

i tried taking a good picture of my stylist-eyes but motherfucking CAMERA is NOT co-operating and refuses to take a non-blurry photo. this is the best i can manage, and it's pretty shit. oh and my eyeball isn't yellow. well, at least i hope not. anyway, when i figure it out i'll post some still ones.

http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c361/nastee/IMG_3504.jpg

yeah, i find it quite thick, too, but then again i guess the lashes are meant to look sorta artificial. i sorta thinned them out with my fingertips too if you get my drift. i need to invest in some eyelash brush thingies that will separate them. but overall, impressive!

[venusvenus123]

venus, do you love your new vans? i can't wait to see them. i was hoping that you'd be able to find them online where you could have them shipped to you, but i suppose that could end up costing a fortune if they came from the states.
i do love my new vans. they're super comfy and i wore them non-stop when i walked about 10 miles around rome in 4 days. I don't actually think i'm exagerrating -- the public transport and the taxis there are quite shite! i forgot that i had this pic, so hey presto, a pic from rome when they were still fairly shiny and new:

YAY GRIGIO

good work m'lady, good work


Ive been rocking the sexxxellent mascara all the holidays and I've been loving it

[QueenAdrock]

I was going to get this mascara, but then I had a Mary Kay party and tried their mascara and fell in love with it. It lengthen and thickens without looking over the top or artificial - very natural-looking. (y)

[befsquire]

yummm, pinot grigio.

so i went to this restaurant called k restaurant & wine bar (http://www.krestaurantwinebar.com/) and had this amazing pinot noir. so, for red wine lovers, this wine is worth every penny:

I read this thread Friday and went shopping that evening to use my gift cards. Without thinking about it, I walked down the make-up aisle and came across this stuff. I figured what the heck and bought a bottle. OH,MAN! I love it! Great mascara..plus is washes off clean and no smudging!

[ScarySquirrel]

It's not really a product...

but I went here because a board member, or two, told me to check it out.
http://photos.pe.facebook.com/v48/129/84/22405967/n22405967_32050778_3074.jpg
For the record, I did buy stuff in there too... so I guess I kinda bought something because a board member suggested it.

[befsquire]

so, for those who paint your nails, you really, really, really have to go buy this:

http://www.seche.com/images/Product/Image112.gif

i painted my nails one full week ago, put this topcoat on, and they did not chip at all. normally, my polish chips in about 3 days. this stuff is worth all $9 i paid for it. (i repainted them today though, because my nails grew.)



description from seche.com:

Seche Vite
Dry Fast Top Coat
Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat is acknowledged as the world's finest top coat. Its patented formula allows it to penetrate through the nail lacquer to the base coat forming a single solid coating over the nail plate for a much more durable finish which is guaranteed not to yellow. Seche Vite is unmatched as a top coat leaving the nail silky feeling, stronger, more durable, absolutely will not chip and creates the highest gloss of any product on the market today. Apply thickly, get a nice bead on the end of the brush, then set softly down on the first nail painted and watch how Seche Vite flows over the wet nail polish self levels and will not drag or streak the underlying manicure. It takes time to master the application and when perfected it is possible to apply in only three strokes...keep trying. Seche Vite will naturally thicken so make sure to keep the neck of the bottle clean and tight at all times and if it gets stringy add a few drops of Seche Restore and roll the bottle slowly adding additional drops until consistency is fully restored.

[beastieangel01]

excuse the ridiculous faces haha.

But I used that same mascara, and it did make the lashes look quite long.

Whoa. I would think once is enough with that.

I haven't even seen any of Angel's series. I really don't like him.

Well, I've seen most of both series but I couldn't resist. Having said that they have been sitting on a shelf for two months and I haven't looked at a single disk yet.

I think I'm saving them for my retirement or something :rolleyes:

I have way too many series and movies I still need to watch. I should stop buying and downloading them though :(
