Glitter Makeup!

NylaPhoenix — Tue, 15 Jan 2008 19:30:55 GMT

I am a distributor of EyeKandy glitter in New York City. This product is great for stage and everyday usage! It can be applied as a liner or all over the eye for a more intense and noticeable look. I love this product I wear it myself and use to make up members of my dance team. The glitters come in 48 colors and I am able to custom blend colors for you as well. I have posted some photos of models with the glitter in my photo album! For priceing and colors please feel free to contact me or go to my page.

Thanks,

Glitter Maven Phoenix

Aveda cosmetics

rabia — Fri, 22 Sep 2006 19:19:40 GMT

Has anyone used Aveda cosmetics? I'm falling out of love with Bare Minerals. I love Aveda's hair stuff, but their make-up is so pricey that I'm reluctant to try it unless I love it.

indigo_bellygirl — Sat, 04 Aug 2007 06:56:39 GMT

I have worked in Vegas as a makeup artist for a modeling agency doing runway & photo shoot make up as well as a commercial & some promo videos but I never knew what to charge. The rates were already set up for me & I just wanted to get an idea for what to charge in the future since I recently relocated to Portland & am looking into doing my makeup out here as well. I do wedding makeup also, but I was just getting into it so I didn't charge very much when I did it. I would also like to know if there is an industry standard rate so as to not low-ball all the other makeup artists who have established a minimum rate for the industry. Any info will be greatly appreciated!

How to put on eye make up so that I won't get wrinkles

Elizabeth — Tue, 17 Jul 2007 08:46:00 GMT

Hi,
Just wondering how you guys apply eye make up so you won't get wrinkles. Every time I'm putting on my eyeshadow or eyeliner I take my finger and stretch out my eyelid.. Isn't that bad because it will make you get wrinkles. Although I find it hard to apply eye make up when i just close my eyes... I need my eyelid to be taut....

Bismuth Oxychloride in many Mineral Make-ups BAD for your skin

Lauralyn — Tue, 10 Oct 2006 12:45:02 GMT

Hi, all
I LOVE make-up & try to use as Healthy as possible, ones on my skin! I just discovered the "secret" about Bismuth Oxychloride in the many "famous brands" of Mineral make-ups! DO not let the word "NATURAL" fool you into believing "SAFE" for you. The FDA does not regulate the cosmetic industry, & it is up to us to read our Labels!
2 of my relatives, in different states had bad experiences with the minerals. 1 Intense itching on her skin, & 1 burning as she applied the minerals. PLEASE do a search on it on Yahoo/google, Bismuth oxychloride. I feel it is my "new" mission. And I just found out, another company I've been with, who touts, pure/safe/beneficial, it is in their mineral make-up too!!!! I found out the bismuth is what gives you the "GLOW", at the sacrifice of what, arsenic on my skin!!!
If you want more info on where to get "healthy" minerals, $2 sample pots available too! Email me anytime, soyjoy@charter.net I don't want to get in trouble for advertising, but had to share.....
Have a BLESSED week, Lauralyn

Did you know...

queenofswords — Tue, 17 Oct 2006 22:27:38 GMT

That just about all commercially available cosmetics and skincare products contain ingredients that cause cancer in humans and are toxic to marine life. How disgusting is that. The companies that make and market these products are fully aware of this and appear to have a blatent disregard for both women's health and the environment. If you want more information, some is available at www.savemorethanface.mionegroup.com

Concealer issues.

theViciousCabaret — Wed, 26 Jul 2006 03:58:57 GMT

Lately I've been using "Wonder finish" from maybelline as a foundation/concealer, and though it says it won't clog pores, my skin has been getting steadily worse in the parts I use it the heaviest on -my nose and forehead- but I was wondering if it was better to use a powder concealer, and why it would be doing this to me (Poor face of mine. It was almost completely clear.), it says it's oil free, and my skin needs that. Very oily and sweaty. Almost paint-like in the consistency of the oil.

I don't know if it's possible, but if any of you can, would you tell me exactly why it's doing this, or if it's just the heat, if you've used it and what reaction you had, and/or a better concealer or foundation for my skin?

Lots of love and thanks.

metallic eyeliners

Katie — Thu, 03 Mar 2005 04:08:14 GMT

hey guys, haven't seen any new posts lately, so here's mine...
I always wear either shimmery gold/orange eye makeup . however, I like my eyeliner to blend in with my eyeshaddow so i have a softer look. what i really want is to find a metallic gold eyeliner, but everytime i buy a liner that i think will go on metallic, it ends up looking dull, just like a light brown. any suggestions?

New Wave City is looking for a Makeup Artist (or wannabe) to do Siouxsie-type makeup on customers at the
Siouxsie & the Banshees Tribute Night on Saturday, August 12th, at the DNA Lounge in San Francisco.
We would set you up with a table and lights upstairs, and you would charge a nominal fee ($4 or $5 I would think)

You would provide all the makeup. Any profit would be yours to keep.

Hair anti-frizzer

the dread pirate_roo — Thu, 03 Nov 2005 10:47:04 GMT

I've got really long thick hair that has been colored so many times that it's pretty frizzy and brittle-feeling.

I've only used relatively inexpensive anti-frizzers but a friend has Bumble and Bumble and swears by it. I've been thinking about trying it soon. Anybody know if the extra money is really worth it? Can you recommend a good one?

thanks

move over makeupalley - themintpages is here!

thisgirlangie — Thu, 30 Mar 2006 22:23:53 GMT

I started a new website (www.themintpages.com) for product whores to talk about products that work for us and those that don't. Please check it out and email your suggestions and feedback thru the website. I looked at MakeupAlley and thought, this site could be MUCH better. I'm trying to get there with themintpages. My site has only been up for a couple weeks, and it is constantly improving so let me know your thoughts on it! We can make this our space to be product whores on the web!

ALSO, I created a Flickr group for Flickr-ing makeup bags at www.flickr.com/groups/whatsinyourmakeupbag -- I used to love the "what's in your bag" pool and decided we should make one exclusively for what's in your MAKEUP bag because it's so interesting to see what people have and how they have their stuff set up or tossed into a cute makeup bag.

Makeup brushes & MAC cosmetics? (clueless)

heatherlyn — Thu, 23 Feb 2006 01:29:55 GMT

(this is x-posted with Beauty Secrets for Divas, sorry if you get it twice!)

So I finally want to join the Big Girls League, and really learn how to put on makeup besides awkwardly smearing a bit on with those dumb foam applicators that come with the crummy cheap colours I usually buy.

A friend just introduced me to MAC makeup. *flail, twitch, lust* I really like it. It's pretty. I want to learn how to put it on, and anoint myself in fabulous eyeshadow!

However, I can't afford to cough up around $70 total for the "3 brushes that I JUST CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT" (quote from the MAC employee trying to push this stuff on me). Where can I get good-quality makeup brushes (and hell, how many do I need to do the basics?) that won't bankrupt me?

If only I could afford some MAC eyeshadows, too. Anyone have any lying around that they don't want? tee hee....

Watch out for Red Ginger on ebay

IwantAnOstrichKellyBag — Sun, 21 Aug 2005 23:40:39 GMT

I bought the orra eyeshadow palette off ebay, it arrived with a few damaged shadows, the seller sent a second one which also arrived damaged, I returned both and have yet to receive a refund or any compensation after almost a month. The ebay store was Red Ginger Cosmetics, seller ID decogirl2004. The orra palette is awesome, really rich pigments, but I don't recommend buying from this person, if there's a problem she'll leave you stuck. I repurchased from another seller and it arrived in perfect shape.

Hi, I'm 37 and my skin has gone from slightly oily and occasional breakouts to dry and sensitive and I have the beginnings of crows feet (awful name ) and laugh lines . I haven't had any luck with MAC foundations, they always cake in my lines and make them look worse. Any suggestions for foundation ( with spf preferably) that doesn't have retinol or anything, that doesn't accentuate wrinkles?

any testimonials? I was using the sheer, oil-free prescriptives foundation, but I need something better.
