Beauty Ice Breakers

BIC is the place to talk about beauty! There are lots of fun threads, from mask to makeup (and even photo ) challenges all the way to pet paradise. In my early days, I kinda wanted to talk to everyone, but I didn't know what to talk about, I just knew I loved makeup and had found my people.

With threads like , I feel the most comfortable when chiming in because I can talk about makeup. I figured, hey, let's open up some discourse amongst ourselves; a thread with getting to know you questions could be kind of fun. (And, I still get to talk about makeup.)

photo cred: HelloGiggles

I'll post a question and a phrase with a blank and change it ~~weekly?~~ periodically. Answer one or both.

@danielledanielle @The most expensive item in my loves list right now is the ! Though I decided I’m going to pick up the one during the sale as it smells like a great dupe to me, though I’ve never actually owned the Tom Ford one - just something I lusted after.

another fun question could be “what lipstick is always in your purse”.

@Kim888, ooh ok, that will be next up.

I hear so much about both of those scents, but haven't smelled either. How would you describe it (like fruity, floral, sweet?), Kind of curious.

@CynthieLu, yeah I saw your beauty peeve, it always happens at the end. Hope you've recovered.

@danielledanielle Not at Sephora, I don't think, but the most expensive item on my wishlist is the YSL custom lip color creator ($299) and all the cartridges ($89/set of three)! It looks like such a fun gadget, though.

Ohh, that's kind of cool though. Very bespoke @txcatx , very be-spendy, too 🤣

@danielledanielle @It’s not really fruity or floral. I’m horrible at describing scents but feel it more falls into a spicy scent family. Like I would put it in the same category as some of the replica wintery ones like jazz club or fireside. If it was described as a sophisticated cherry cocktail, that would be the vibe.

Those always look so so cool @txcatx !!!!

years ago I watched this vintage YouTube video of someone getting their personal face powder made at a department store and I was always like, I wish we still did that !

Ooh this is fun!

When I put on mascara, I always _________ manage to get some somewhere it isn't supposed to be.

And

What is the most expensive item on my loves list? I cleared my list out earlier this year and moved everything to Elfster...but of course it didn't take long to add things. My current top two expensive items are- and It's highly unlikely I will ever own either of them lol. Now most expensive that I am likely to get someday

Oh that's a perfect description @Kim888 -- I can picture/smell that.

I'm not great with describing scents either, unless it is food like 😂

1. I always makes that stupid open mouth mascara face hahahah.

2. I don’t keep a loves list, but the most expensive item I’m currently considering is the new Hourglass palettes… the elephant one most likely.

@Samtian, that's probably my fave answer re: mascara.

That's not a bad idea, transferring loves. As a kid, I liked holding toys in store. My Mom couldn't buy it, but I had the satisfaction of having it for a little bit, even though I had to put it back.

@danielledanielle Lol it's quite sadly the truth about mascara. I did the same as a child, barbies lol.
