I used a product with the same concept when I was younger. The container was white, but I can't remember the product name. I used it for a long time. It was my favorite, or the only one I used regularly. I didn't like the bottle liquids.
Ladies do you wear Make-up every day ?

Maybe white lipstick will make a comeback.
I wonder if this was the makeup one of my aunts wore?!? She could really apply it thick. She always looked glossy.I did know about this because the Make-up artists on our TV shows use it a lot... I dunno anyone who wears it out in real life tho'..

Now this may seem a little lightweight for me, but bare with...
I used to wear a full face of make-up from when I was a teen.. right up until maybe 50 or more.. Would never consider going out the door without make-up on..
I stopped wearing it when I went to live in Spain full time,, make-up and hot sun as you who live in hot temps know, just don't play well together. Instead I'd wear just moisturiser, and Sun factor lotion.. a little blush and lipstick. No mascara because I always wore sunglasses outside.
Fast forward to today.. I'm 67.. I've continued to not wear make-up , except Blush and lipstick when I go out ( you've all seen the recent pics) because I've always read that foundation settles in the wrinkles and makes it look worse .. ..today I was looking in a Magnifying mirror.. Oh Dear Jesus.....I mean seriously
...so I sat there and did a full face of make-up... Concealer, Primer.. blush, Lipstick, Mascara, ... no foundation... and you know what ?... I look 10 times better.. so from now on..back to make-up I go...
How about you ladies...yeah or nay to make-up...and why ?

I don't cut my own hair.. except when I have a fringe... and I have never used home hi-lighting kits, I'd be bound to do something wrong..
With the Frost and Glo kit, if the color doesn't come out enough after hair is dry, go back and pull a few strands and put some on a little longer. That way you have two blending colors, and it really looks better that way than all one color. As for cutting, my hair is all one length, so that doesn't require much skill, other than the ability to hold the scissors straight, and the right mirror set up. The mirror set up is important.

LOL.. I wish I had the courage cuz I hate being 3 hours in the salon, but I don't, so I'll leave it to my hairdresser..
I wish I knew somewhere to go this time. My nerves have been too bad for precise focus. Everyone here seems to hop from one hairdresser to another, so I just have untouched roots for now. Reading the posts motivated me to push through the hair process.

Maybe see if you can find some online reviews for local salons in your area. It might give you a clue as to whether they might be worth a shot. That's what I'd do if I didn't have someone to ask about a good hairdresser.

I go to the college... They have a Beauty Salon there where the students are training to be stylists... they are supervised every step of the way by qualified hair stylists and colourist so there's no chance of them making a mistake, and it costs a fraction of a normal Salon.. Maybe you have a college with a Beauty Salon near you ?

I don't wear make up everyday. Just special occasions. And, only blue mascara and a blue pencil eyeliner. Lipstick, if I remember.
I miss candied violet lipstick by Revlon.
And, I try not to look in the magnifying mirror

Oh yeah. I think black or blue lipstick is the trend now. At least back then we didn’t do the tattoos and piercing they do now to express their creative side.

I too, as a teen, started with full make-up. With white lipstick and black liquid eyeliner. As the years went on, I used less and less, but still pretty much full make-up during my working years.
Now if I am leaving home I use a little concealer, and sometimes a little blush or bronzer. If I'm going out to somewhere like a nice restaurant or somewhere special, I'll put foundation on, but that is rare.

. I just finished washing my face to take off the makeup I was wearing today. I stopped wearing makeup for the most part about 7-8 years ago after I retired from full-time work. I did wear it for special occasions but otherwise went au naturel. Then I started to realize that I might want to start wearing it again on a more frequent basis. I don't do anything theatrical looking. I prefer much the same as you do, HD. I feel better about myself when I wear it.

I've never been much of a makeup wearer. Now I use a little eyebrow powder because my brows are sparse and a touch of lipstick because my lips have lost color.
The only makeup I really wore was eye makeup. As a teen I wore black mascara, eye liner and colored shadow, usually earthy tones. As I became a senior, I wore less and less and now I haven't worn any for a long time. If I was going out and getting dressed up for some occasion, I may put on a bit.Now this may seem a little lightweight for me, but bare with...

I have an outdoorsy lifestyle, I have seasonal allergies that cause itchy eyes, I use eye drops a couple of times a day. In the heat of the summer when I perspire, anything like mascara tends to run or smear. If I'm out in foggy, rainy or snowy weather, same thing, makeup smears.
As my eyesight worsens with age, I imagine the application which was pretty precise and spot-on in my younger days would be hard to accomplish anymore. I'm okay, less hassle for me, and my husband sincerely likes the natural look, he always told me that on camping trips where I took a break from wearing makeup.
