I so wish I had more to report. I was going to take a picture of my eyebrow grow-out but just haven't gotten around to it. Not that that has anything much to do with make-up but sort of. You see, the last time I went to see Neelam she did my eyebrows a little too skinny. It's my own fault - I forgot to tell her "not too skinny." So now I'm growing them out - Maybe I'll post a video when I go to get them all done up. For now... well, for now I'll let you wonder about the ultra coolness of my eyebrow method. Stay tuned.
On the make-up front.... I still haven't bought anything. But I am closer. I checked out the foundation/concealer at Costco this afternoon. Bummer that you have to buy them together. And I wasn't sure what color of foundation to get - light or medium. And Jodi - you might check it out. It says "sheer" on the bottle. And you know I am still totally waiting to hear how Kristi's Bare Minerals are going - she bought some at Target the other day.
I also talked with a friend about Arbonne. I am considering becoming a consultant just so I can get it cheap. They don't have any minimum to stay active and I really think they have a fairly safe/natural product. I'm also waiting to hear back on an e-mail I sent to Arbonne corporate asking about their hormone balancing cream. As soon as I find out the answers I'm going to call my Naturopath and ask if it would be effective for me. That in itself would be helpful as all the supplements I'm supposed to be on for my hormones are crazy expensive.
So... here I am. I've been using the Sonja Kashuk concealer but I'm really not happy with it. It makes my pores look all enlarged. I'm totally loving the new lip gloss I got from Burt's - but I'm a huge Burt's fan.
Thanks for all your tips! Admittedly, it's fun to talk about this stuff once in a while. Seems like since we're all grown-up now we don't talk as much about all this kind of girlie stuff as we used to. I'll keep you posted...

Aren't you just clever with your post title???
I just remembered that my mom started using Bare Minerals. I'll have to ask her how it's going.
I wish I had a Neelam.
ok, I flippin' LOVE the bare minerals!!! Seriously, I have never looked prettier (is it vain to say that?) I am of course still in the 'just had a baby and feeling yucky about my body' stage, so every little bit helps. I love how EASY the stuff is to put on, its so quick. But the best part is that it just looks like I'm not wearing anything and just have perfect skin with no racoon eyes, which you know is my big probem.... So, go get it at Target. Its not the foundation... just the "Beyond the Basics" pack. It has 2 shades of concealer (I kind of mix them together), some glow stuff, all over radiance stuff (which is like a sheer kind of coverage), and then some faux tan that I haven't used yet. I know I am starting to sound like an infomercial, but I seriously love it AND it lasts pretty much all day. We went out to dinner the other night and I touched up a bit, but it was very minimal.
