priscillapang-deactivated201205 asked: What are some good drugstore and high-end matte blushes?
awkwardtwentysomething asked: Hi Shannon! Just wanted to let you know I took your advice and got the Naked2 palette as a birthday gift to myself. I debated between 1 and 2 FOREVER in Sephora, then stuck with Naked2 and got a single of Gunmetal from the original palette. I'm in love! Haha. Thanks so much!

I’ll be going to MAC’s advanced makeup workshop/seminar next Saturday in Bellevue :D
If anyone who lives in WA is interested in taking the workshop I just got off the phone with the lady who referred me and she said there’s a couple spots left! It’s $50 and the class will be held at the Nordstrom in Bellevue, WA. There’s one at 11am and one at 3pm. I’m taking...
kristassassypants asked: A question and a comment. Have you ever used the beauty blender sponge? I hear great things about it. I use the airbrush brush by sephora, but I hear the sponge is great for quick application. As for the comment, you're thinking about buying a face brush? The Clarisonic changed my life! I can't tell you the last time my skin was so clear. Definitely worth the investment.

Anonymous asked: I just started following you so I am not sure if this question has already been asked, but I buy all my make up from the grocery store and my boyfriend already says that is expensive. He did buy me make up forever eyeshadow but only because they were the only ones to have white and hot pink. I guess my question is why should I be buying better make up and how do I explain that to my boyfriend who...

Anonymous asked: Do you use a face scrubber/brush to wash your face?
Anonymous asked: I take care of my forehead just as much as the rest of my face but it still happens to be the darkest part of my face. I moisturizer, cleanse, and apply sunscreen daily. Do you know why this is or how to prevent this?

Anonymous asked: I'm not sure if this is a beauty/makeup question but I have "peach fuzz" and it's actually pretty dark and noticable. Do you know how to lighten those hairs so they aren't so noticable? I've heard of bleaching and actually removing the hairs but I don't want to wax, shave, or pluck those hairs because they may grow back thicker.
missglamourist asked: have you ever tried skin79's bb cream? (:
Anonymous asked: Hi! :) I was wondering what you do to remove fake eyelashes? I had so much trouble with it haha!
Anonymous asked: Could you describe, in depth, the difference between a matte finish and satin finish?
Anonymous asked: How did u get MAC to call u for that makeup class?? I wanna go to one!! Hahaha

FUCKYEAHMAKEUPBITCH: Urban Decay vs. MAC... →
fuckyeahmakeupbitch:
So as many of you know, Urban Decay announced a customizable six pan palette. After reading some of Rachel (87daysbefore) thoughts on it, I decided to look into it a bit more and lay everything out.
MAC:
For MAC eyeshadows, you can either buy them in a pot or pan form. The pots are $15.00,…
Exactly my thoughts!!! Thank you for this post!

Anonymous asked: Do you know any cheap setting sprays other than elfs, I've tried the urban decay all nighter spray but it was only the travel size & i don't really want to spend $30 on the bigger bottle. Any recommendations?
Anonymous asked: Hi Shannon, I'm planning on buying an empty palette for my depotted mac eyeshadows/blushes. Can't decide between the MAC palette or the z-palette. Any suggestions? I need something that will be sturdy enough for me to take when I travel as well. Thanks!

jckrebs asked: What's a good everyday, summertime foundation for someone wit combination-oily skin?

I get oily mainly on my nose, eyes and sometimes my forehead & dry also sometimes on my forehead, & dry on my cheeks. I don't really have problems with acne.
