7/24/08 08:46 am - [info]nyla2120 posting in [info]mac_cosmetics - Question for my fellow MAC employees

I struggle to keep my natural nails looking nice & it seems every time I get them to a decent length they want to crack, break, etc. I use stengthener, I even tried taking Biotin but I can't handle those huge pills on a daily basis. I used to always wear acrylics years ago & I was thinking about maybe going back to them. I would get them pretty short so that they look more natural. But, I am just worried that they will get in the way with things like applying false lashes to customers. So, my question is how many of you that work at MAC wear acrylics & do you find that it interferes with your make-up applications?

I almost have no words...

But the words I do have, will be under the cut. If you are into X Files at ALL and don't want to know anything... even an opinion, do NOT CLICK!

I have just one sentence under the cut at this stage. More to come for sure when I've thought it all through..

7/24/08 07:27 am - [info]queenofhearts87 posting in [info]mac_cosmetics - follow-up on the help entry :)

Helloooo everyone :)

So last night I dragged Deneca, my darling best friend who dragged me into this Midsummer Night's Dream event, over to my apartment for some test runs. She's seen what kind of makeup they're expecting, so she gave me a brief overview with some sketches, and let me play with her face. :) She also let me do a test run on her for the wedding I have on Saturday, and my trial run with the bride is this afternoon.

Deneca = awesome.

So I bring you pictures from our test run for your opinions!

3 hours & 15 minutes straight of makeup application later.. )

7/24/08 06:05 am - [info]cruxgothgirlie - Bengies

Hey guys! I know some of you said you were interested in going to Bengie's drive-in this weekend. I don't want to make any 100% solid plans, since the weather isn't looking too hot. It's supposed to be in the 90's and raining, and since you can't have your car turned on to use air conditioning or windshield wipers, that could suck. We may still go, I don't know, though. :-/

7/24/08 03:05 am - [info]stand_in_line posting in [info]mac_cosmetics - Reflects glitter

SO this is a little old considering how long ago these came out but I haven't even tried mine yet! So my question is=what is the best thing to use to get them to stick? I want a pretty good layer on there.

Also-Post your favorite blue looks! I'm going to a Black and Blue club event this weekend and I want something hot but I'm lacking creativity :(

7/24/08 03:17 am - [info]kayly posting in [info]eyeshadowsluts - CoverGirl Ad- Recreate!

Hi all!

So I've been coveting THIS ) since I first saw it in my Cosmo.

My problem is I've looked at the quad (and internet swatches) and even though the ad says that Eye Enhancers in "Lime Alive" "Gold Sizzle" and "Coral Jungle" were used there is NO WAY, those eyeshadows give that kind of color payoff and CG always looks chalky to me.

SO, what I need is if somebody could suggest colors/brands that WOULD give me this look, I would love you for life. Also I'm a little iffy on placement.

Long Story Short: HELP ME!

7/23/08 11:48 pm - [info]brave_new_venus posting in [info]mac_cosmetics - Contour question...

What are the best brushes to contour a face with?

Also, what shades would work best to contour(to recede)and highlight(to bring out)with? I've heard bronzes and browns...just want to make sure.


Thanks!

7/24/08 04:19 pm - [info]_char posting in [info]mac_cosmetics - drug store mascara?

Alrighty, so i think ive actually run out of my GWP size of Clinique's High Impact mascara (unless i can steal mums - if she hasnt used it yet)

I wanted to purchase the full size, but yea its $36 AUS and i dont really feel like spending THAT much on one mascara, if theres something i can get cheaper

I dunno if im fussy with mascaras, i was using an Avon one called....astonishing lengths. Unless i realised when my eyes watered the mascara would make my eyes sting.

Does anyone feel its all to do with the wand/brush that makes the lashes so awesome. My clinique one was pretty good, not so much dried up though haha

So what are some decent drugstore brand ones? I'd love some opinions from the aussie girls too (bah drugstore ones are expensive too?)

I have some boooring fotds to post, but i havent got around to it, its my birthday today so i might just do some makeup for the hell of it. But hopefully i can throw together a real post before i go on my tiny holiday

7/23/08 10:43 pm - [info]brunettewillow posting in [info]mac_cosmetics - Choose my makeup for this weekend!

So this weekend is Comic-Con and I'm so excited. The first time I went two years ago I got to meet Seth Green who I've had a crush on since middle school haha. This year I'm going Thursday, Friday and Sunday. All the money I have left after Sonic Chic/Electroflash is going to disappear =(

Anyways, I need makeup ideas and I was wondering if you guys could inspire me and suggest some looks to try out. And they can definitely be super fun bright looks which I don't normally get to wear at law school. I'm NW15 with blue eyes and black/pink hair. Thanks!!!

7/23/08 10:41 pm - [info]vintagegirlnh posting in [info]mac_cosmetics

Hey guys, I just wanted to ask anyone who owns an original green frost pigment for a favor. Can someone please post a pic of the pigment in jar or swatched or however else you can photograph it? Also what's your batch number? Any help would be incredibly appreciated! Thank you!

7/23/08 10:37 pm - [info]oh_roxxxy posting in [info]mac_cosmetics - Turquoise matte questions

so i am so excited! i got my BNIB MAC turquoise pigment from a swap in the mail today, and i dont really question the authenticity of it, but hey it never hurts to check

so for those of you who have it what is the little number on the bottom?

and to anyone could you post swatches(either that you have done, or that you found online) so i can compare

and lastly i really like the color, but i am all of a sudden very intimidated by it, so if anyone has like a killer look they have done with it, or any great color combos that would be amazing

TIA

7/24/08 12:36 am - [info]kayly posting in [info]mac_cosmetics - NEW Makeup website! Posters needed!

Dear Makeup Lovers!

My name is Kayly and I’m using my summer vacation to start a makeup/beauty website, however rather than just having it be things I like and my recommendations, I want it to be mostly FUBU (for u by u for those of you who missed the clothing craze) and I feel that these makeup communites could be my best allies.

So basically here is what I’m hoping to get from you guys:

-Tutorials
-Reviews
-Recommendations
-Tips/Tricks
-Favorite looks
-Links to other sites
-ANYTHING you think might be useful to other Makeup lovers send it my way!


*If you’ve already posted it in one of the communities just send me a link!
**Please do not send me other peoples work, I don’t want to use anything without the owners permission!

You will be credited for your work of course!


If you are web savvy in any way (HTML knowledge etc) and are willing to help please email me!

Please Email me at Kayly.machado@gmail.com (also taking applications for a catchier title) try not to reply in this post as Ive posted so many places I’ll likely forget to check back




Thank you for your help!

X-Posted everywhere (because I’m desperate)
