I can make a makeup and fashion thread but it'd be pretty bare bones. I don't follow any blogs or vlogs. My fashion sense is basically browsing Forever XXI every once in a while, and heading over to wornontv.net after I catch up on Modern Family or Pretty Little Liars or whatever. So it wouldn't be a repository of useful links per se, just a starting point for discussion to take place.
A make-up thread would be a great idea. I have been trying to experiment with make-up more. Before it used to be just a lipstick and mascara. Now I'm trying some eye shadows, eyeliner and experimenting with colours more. The eye shadow set I bought seems to be for Halloween (all colourful and full with sparkle), probably not a good idea to use for work XD
I had no idea FFVIII fans are already highly represented here. That's great news. I don't usually reply on the community threads but I'll take a look at the FF community thread.
It still hurts that SE skipped on FFVIII and went for FFIX ;(
Thank you so much for the detailed write-up. Most of what you mentioned sounds new to me because I was always afraid of damaging my hair and preferred to keep it natural. I'll look into the products that you mentioned and give some of them a try. Your hair looks gorgeous! Is that your natural hair colour?

Essie is great. Before I was using cheap nail polish that chipped easily and then switched to Essie after a recommendation. I had no clue that polish could dry so fast and last that long.
It is expensive but it is worth it as a deterrent from ruining my nails because of nervous biting.
Hi ladies!! Super glad to have made it over to the new place...I'm trying to be more active than I was before.
I used to have ipsy and glossybox at various times in the past, I've currently been subscribed to Sephora Play for over a year. That's pretty limited, I know there's tons of fun boxes out there now.
What kind of review? Like overall impressions or the individual items?...

This is me. Can't see shit. I'm getting a little better but occasionally still need help.
I'm going to be so fucked when i end up alone :( in general i don't use makeup. Just for special occasions.
I want to start using makeup more. But that would require me waking up early. Haha! ^^`
Also does it seem weird when a coworker suddenly starts doing something so vastly different? Like would i be shocking my coworkers if i did start using makeup more? I actually worry a bit about this.
Thanks for the advice! I'll need to start looking at some youtube vids... It's gonna be hard to get used to the feeling of wearing make up as well. lol The only times I've ever work make up were for dance recitals when I was a kid and on my wedding day pretty much.
Also a subscription box thread would be neat! I don't subscribe to any fashion ones, but I like to try different snack ones and have been trying out some scrapbooking ones.
Aw don't worry. :) It's not weird. Just do a little bit at a time and gradually add to your routine.
I usually only bother with concealer and tinted lip balm cuz it takes me too much time to get ready.
No, I just went from wearing no makeup to wearing obvious makeup and the only thing that happened was some of my lady co-workers said I looked nice. The dudes either didn't notice or didn't say anything.
Although my co-workers know I don't take their crap so your mileage may vary.
Ooh that's perfect! I was imagining just like photos, comments, thoughts, even prices of full size products.
I have fabfitfun. I actually looked into Sephora play, Target, and Amazon but too many boxes are too pricey.

Hahaha no. I've read recipes on how to do it, and just threw the book in the air. I don't have the time or energy to make my own pasta or shells filled with things, like ravioli or pierogi. Those are things I order from restaurants or buy premade.
Oh how is fabfitfun? One of the scrapbookers I follow on youtube did an art kit for them in the summer and I've been meaning to look into them.

I'm not a good person to make any beauty makeup or fashion threads. Someone else please do! Or y'know, if you already did, I'll put your beautiful link in the OP when you @ me.
I can make a fashion thread if no one else is up for it. Is there anything people would want besides store and fashion blog links?
Thank you! The ends are dyed and I have highlights. I avoid all-over color because my hair grows really quickly.
I have this problem too. I can handle mascara but eyeliner is a huge struggle. I have thought about trying those little stencil things, but I'm not sure they actually work.

I have a makeup/cosmetology thread about ready to go. Can I run it by someone here so I can feel better about having not made any serious mistakes nor missed something obvious?
I need a volunteer please (◡‿◡✿)

I'm not nearly knowledgeable for that. I only just started trying to make myself look nice for the first time in my life and I'm still having trouble trying to figure out what places sell stuff I like. also i know nothing about other styles that I'm not really into. id really benefit from someone else making a thread tho :P
I totally agree with this. The only exception is when I get together with my sis to wrap like five pounds of wontons to freeze.
That is an endeavor that's more about drinking a lot of martinis and shooting the shit though, so it's pretty fun.
My family makes a bunch of different pasta.
we do haluski, gnocchi, pierogi, some generic soup noodle and I think theres a bunch more
Haluski is the easiest since you only need to mix like eggs, flour, and water (I think) and just drop small gobs into a pot of boiling water.
Pierogi takes 2 days to do right but is way better than anything you could get at a store or restaurant
(not sure if pierogi is pasta but its already been mentioned so *shrug*)
Thanks, Looks great! Will look through some of the links in the morning.

Yes. It went not so great. I haven't done it since because I'm horrendously lazy.
The only advice I can give is don't underestimate the amount of flour for dusting the dough. And fold and roll a lot, is what I've heard, I guess to help with the integrity.
But if all else fails, IronERA might be able to help you.
Haha, so much this
Reading all those product names and stores just makes my head hurt
In regards to pasta making, I will happily eat any pasta someone else makes for me.
This is a light, fun, not serious conservation I had with my husband a moment ago about appearance.
We all know about the hot/crazy scale from How I Met Your Mother, but I was telling him that it really should be the hot/effort scale. As in, the hotter you are, the less you have to try.
(I'm saying this in a joking manner, inspired by him asking what I meant when I said I wasn't bright enough to not try at all but enough to get away with my college grades [which I was reading to him and he was shaking his head].)

Baking is fun! What kind of cookies? I'll be baking a cake Tuesday morning for a Halloween party later in the day.
Pumpkin spice! October cookies haha.
What kind of cake, QV?
Sounds yummy! Though I wish I was more of a fan of pumpkin spice then I am, I don't mind it but I don't love it either but I feel like I'm missing out on the fall flavors.
I got some Halloween cake mix and some orange vanilla frosting that has orange pumpkin and black bat sprinkles so it'll be cute. I also got a package of Keebler fudge stripe cookies, chocolate frosting and some Hershey kisses so I'm going to flip the cookies chocolate side up, add a little chocolate frosting in the middle and put the Hershey kiss on top to make cute little witch hat cookies. Lastly I got some hot dogs/Pillsbury crescent rolls and going to cut the rolls into strips and make mummies in a blanket. Looking forward to Tuesday, can share some images of the final products if anyone's interested.
Ohhhh that sounds delish! Never tried pumpkin spice cookies
I'd maybe choose to go diabetic over this list. Post all of the pictures pls
Those sound so fun! Haha. Lots of baking! Make sure to take pictures, they sound really cute.

Cooooookies.
I'd love to see some data on a study like this. I don't know how you'd gather it though :P
Because while it's fun to point out people who don't have to try, the other possible thing at play is that of the people who don't try we're just more likely to notice the hot ones.
Baking is one of my favorite things to do with people! I'm jealous haha.
Haha I've been very strict with my diet the past week in preparation of being able to eat the above and steal some of my younger sisters candy guilt free! :3
Yeah! Will certainly take some pictures before everything's eaten up!
(Gonna bookmark that recipe to try one day as those images look really good!)
