    Show us your hair do's....

    The key is brushing it out out really really thoroughly first and then using a brush to sculpt the curls to flow the way you want. When I first took them out I had HUGE crazy hair, but I brushed it for about an hour and it finally started looking right. I have tons of hair so that is probably...

    I finally tried a pin curl set. I loved the results...although it took me literally over an hour to brush it out to this point and I was still not quite satisfied.

    What is your favorite red lipstick brand/shade?

    I used to be a loyalist to Besame's Red Velvet, but recently I discovered the most incredible product from Stila- Long Wear Liquid Lip Color in "Fiery". It actually goes on as a gloss, but it dries quickly into the most beautiful matte color that stays put for HOURS with no smudging. It is so...

    My Mother Says...

    My mom doesn't really comment on my style or my hair. I think she appreciates it at least somewhat though...? There was one instance when she told me I looked nice- I had dressed up to the nines in a Trashy Diva dress, mink stole, and fancy hair for a night out on my birthday last august...

    Has anyone found a good red lipstick that does not smudge???

    Thanks KittyT, what wonderful advice. Do any of you ladies have anything to say about Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencils? I have been using Mac's Dubonnet for a couple of years and I want to try something new with a Matte finish. I'd like to find something a little brighter that still suits...

    I need some new hairstyle ideas

    This is girl whom I did hair/makeup/photos for a few weeks ago. Her hair was to short to do anything with victory rolls. The picture doesn't totally capture it but I curled her hair all around and did some finger waves in the front. You might try something like this? I just soaked the front...

    Help Recreating this Hairstyle? (20s-30s)

    Vintage Makeup How-To's

    thanks for the link, cecil! Also, I know what you mean about the winged eyeliner paired with the 30s/40s fashions... although the wings themselves look good and most people don't even notice the inconsistency- it feels odd nonetheless. My impression of the 40's look is this: - a thick...
