Vintage Makeup Favorites
Kitty, I just used a small bowl to mix it in. I didn't measure, just eye balled it. I put the powder in the bowl and then started adding the alcohol and kept mixing until I got a putty type consistancy. I had a very small eye shadow compant that I carry with me and then I had a larger...- Grnidwitch

Jeans - help please
You might try Levi's and look at the mens styles. Keep in mind, mens's jeans are cut with a shorter rise, even if the are to fit at the waist and there is no hip room cut into them. I like the 560's. The fit snug in the tummy area and are loose through the hip and tigh. To find your size in...- Grnidwitch

The Dress
You go girl MG, you just keep being you and wearing what you like. Your girls are getting the best lessons possible. I think women feel threatened when they see a woman dressing like a lady. My mom always wore skirts/dresses and stockings. She always had nicely tailored clothes that fit...- Grnidwitch

The Dress
Can you believe the way people go to funerals these days. I'm shocked. If I can't wear a dress/skirt/suit, I'll wear nice slacks and shoes. I almost collapsed when I saw shorts and sandals at my uncle's funeral. I could have just shaken the person.- Grnidwitch

Update on Nivea in the little Tin
Cetaphil has a wonderful line of products for sensitive skin. I use the bar soap in the shower. I have to be really careful with what I use on my body. I also used their bottled cleanser as a make up remover before switching to Ponds. The bottled cleanser doesn't foam like a soap. But it's...- Grnidwitch

Vintage Makeup Favorites
Airspun Someone, and I think it was JBD, said that you can mix Airpsun with rubbing alcohol and make a pressed powder. Well, guess what, it works like a charm. I have a few vintage compacts for loose powder and they have a few issues. Either they leak or they don't dispense enough powder for...- Grnidwitch

Rita's Glamour
I went and bought the DVD yesterday on my lunch break. Loved it. I've always loved Eve Arden. Wise cracking dames always did it for me. Guess that's why I'm the way I am. She's a tall girl too. 5'9 if I'm not mistaken. I'm 5'10 1/2 so I really pay attention to her style. I think some of...- Grnidwitch
