Oh I'll be such the girl here & start the MAC topic - LOVE it!

I have a ton of the pigments, but am trying to find more ways to use them. I find I keep to just using them on my eyes...but know there's many more ways to use them!! Any suggestions??

I wanna be a girl too....so to that end, anyone who can teach me how to actually properly apply makeup, please clue me in!! Its lowering to say so....but the guys in the band are probably better at it than me : (

I wear make-up every day, so it's no big deal for me.

That was sarcasm... I can barely dress myself without looking like I failed the Special Ed course of "Matching Colors".

I honestly don't even know what MAC pigments are.

You two crack me up!! I wanna be a girl too...ha ha, that's brilliant!!

YES - those freakin' boys wear eye makeup much better than I do. I was thinking of asking Brent, Carlton, or Jinxx for an eye makeup lesson next time I see them!


Here's a little lesson on pigments for you!! (Don't say I never gave you anything!!)

sorry! a bare minerals fan here....just getting into adding more eye shadows to my collection

I use MAC, but I'm not very "girlie". Don't know if anyone would want make-up tips from me.

Hmmm, that is an idea I NEVER would have thought of...

Crusader....you just need Garranimals for big kids. Just kidding.

Seriously though...Mothers Day I was at the mall and went to Macy's for shoes. I had to go in through the make-up counters. It's the first time I actually noticed the MAC counter. There three young adults that were "working" were really just standing around and I saw that there were stations set up at each corner of the counter with a chair and a table that I figured were to do people's make up. I didn't have the guts to ask for a makeover and besides had no where to go that night looking gorgeous but I did contact a friend who works for MAC. She said that at most department stores with a MAC counter they do makeovers by appointment but if it's quiet they will take walk-ups. She said that at Nordstroms (at least here in New England) there is no charge or minimum purchase but they do expect that you'll buy something. At Macy's there is a minimum purchase requirement of $50.

Believe me, I really need lessons myself.

Kathy

never really had lessons, kinda have taught myself to do the retro look and cat eye

Oh if you have never had them do your makeup, DO IT! I had them do mine (and YES, an appointment is best - that way you don't have to wait while they help other customers!) and learned SO MUCH about all my makeup in general!

Of course, I spent way too much, but every day I use at least one of the tricks I learned!!

DO IT, DO IT!!

BE has kits that tell you how to do things too!


sorry huge bare minerals lover here

In know how to do make up--- I was a theater major so Ive taken make-up classes, Im good at doing it dramatic, but I NEVER wear makeup...... what you wanna know? I have never used mac though....

I always wear eye shadow and mascara.

Haha, not really, haha. I'm a guy and I just don't have it in me.

I have painted my fingernails though... Since Boxing is my sport, and you have to keep your hands in sweaty gloves, it can destroy your fingernails, so I had to paint them so I didn't lose them.

That's about it though, haah.
