Ok so I've been wanting to make this thread for a while. I've also been wanting to start a "random thoughts" thread...but I figured I'd separate the categories so that at least the "beauty" one is on the front page, rather than hidden in off topic. So, have a beauty-related thought but don't think it's worth starting a thread about ? Post it here !

 

today I got a facial at an extraordinarily nice spa. A real treat. And the results were immediate and truly great. But guys: she pulled out a clarisonic and a foamy cleanser for that first initial cleanse, and I nearly had a heart attack. Great for a lot of people but most of you know how I feel about those things !!!!!! Overall, as I said, it was great and my skin is happy. But sheesh.

RANDOM BEAUTY FACTS ABOUT YOU THREAD !

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

I think it's very possible that it just happened due to time/shipping. I have noticed that my Melteds have gotten a bit messy in the cap since I purchased them, due I think just to the applicator "pulling" the color up through itself, and they've just been sitting in my box. guzelkiz I think posted about this too, how one of hers had made a mess all over her drawer. If it was banging about in the box, possibly getting squished, product could have been forced out that way as well. I have a mini Melted Fuschia sitting in a bag of minis to give a friend, and it was sitting under a heavy box for awhile before I noticed - the color is now all in the applicator, as if it had been used. So I think this one is fine.

 

Also, from the way the color is distributed, it doesn't look like anyone put that on their lips or even swatched it. If they had, I would think it would be covering the entire surface of the applicator.

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

Yeah one of mine that I had for over a year (probably longer as I got it as soon as they released their first batch) leaked.  It was all separated like the oil from it was leaking.  I attribute that to age though since I had it soo long because it was just sitting in an acrylic drawer organizer.  It didn't get shaken or banged around or anything.

 

I doubt anyone actually used this one that Anne posted but I'm personally not willing to take chances on lip products.

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

Anne I have tons of these and have never received one with any bit of product on the applicator.  Don't chance it.

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

I keep seeing this around and feel like it fits in here...

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

Looks like she ages. 2005 to me appears to be a fresh teen, about 16. 2010 barbie is early 20s, and 2015 is late 20s/early 30s. At first glance, I seriously thought that was Paris Hilton in 2015! It's a bit creepy how realistic they've made it with the collarbone and cleavage...

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

I prefer the 2010 version. She still had teeth and her lashes are goals 😛 

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

But they're so spidery.  And no blending.  

 

Honestly, I like 2005 Barbie.  She looks fresh.  

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

I am completely dumbfounded that is what Barbie looks like now! Not that she looked all that human before but can't even figure out what species she is now. Kardashian maybe? 😉 

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

She looks biotchy now.  Like she's gonna take out Ken, and not on a date,  

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

**bleep** she went through some major plastic ( and it truly is plastic) surgery in 10 years!

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

Totally. Eye job, lip plumping, chin implant, contacts, electrolysis. And that's just her face. Barbie had a lot of work done. Poor Skipper probably fell prey as well. Wonder what she's looking like these days. 

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

Interestingly, it seems to have INcreased the size of her nose!

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

This reminds me of

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

LMAO. Why do all the dolls have massive lip injections?

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

Haha they all want to be like Kylie 😉

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

I just made an appointment for the Bite Lip Lab in NY! Now I need custom colour ideas.

 

I'm thinking I don't need another red for now, and I don't need another coral. Since fall is upon us (nooo don't go Summer!) I was thinking a rich, warm plum/purple...something like if Plum + Barberry were mixed together?? Still, I don't know if that's unique enough. 

 

For $36 I want to make sure I love it!

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

Yay! This is so exciting, I had such an awesome experience and you will love it. I went last October and made 2 colors- one mauve/purple and one deeper fuchsia. I wasn't planning on getting the fuchsia, but when I tried on a random combination they made for me I fell in love with the color! Just tell them an idea of what you're looking for and they will make a ton of different choices for you to try on. I would definitely recommend a plum or purple- they come out gorgeous, especially with a matte formula. Please let us know how your experience goes!! 🙂

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

This is my first time in NY so I definitely can't miss it!

I think I'll go with my original plan and ask for a warm purple to be made. I found a lot of the dark purples I like in the bullet apply patchy. Maybe I'll also try and get the perfect MLBB shade made...

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

Ahh I am SO excited for you! Please report back every detail of your experience 😄 I really want to go and do this at some point too. Maybe go with a shade that you will use often so you can really get your $36 worth? That's what I would do lol. 

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

I think we should do a BT meetup at the Lip Lab.  Wouldn't that be so awesome? 😄

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS : BEAUTY

Yes! That would be so much fun. I'd throw my points at that haha
