Love that Garnier micellar, in the blue top bottle. It took me over 2 years to find it, what with allergies to aloe, ineffective formulas, etc. It’s superb. Never tried anything Garnier before, now I tell strangers to grab it up!

Rachel R. Avatar

So far I’m liking the Pacifica mascara alot! It has not given me an allergic reaction, and I’ve been using it for a week or so. It’s not super-volumizng, but good enough for day wear, and even better with two or even three coasts. It lengthens lashes really well. I don’t find the formula too wet or too dry. The brush is really cool. You can twist the button on top to make it telescope out bigger and wider, or use it as a smaller, more narrow brush.

No polish, but since I was in all day on my own I decided to wear Pure Poison by Dior. It’s strong but it’s a nostalgic perfume for me so smelling it always calms me and makes me feel better. ?

L>M, N>C. Somebody has been usurping my access to computers, so I wanted to get there before they opened. Did. But that meant I only got on FAB Triple duty, and Paula TM light resist blah blah by noon or 1 p. Noticed the inflammation on my face when I washed my hands. No makeup, but might do Sake, Nyx dusty rose, and pull a palette into rotation, mattnificent or interstellar, just for fun/ practice. It’s nearly 8 P. That’s addiction for ya! They were lucky I got to deodorant, but usually I do wear some scent there. Can’t wear polish bec of psoriatic nails. Most workers are direct care, so polish and faux nails esp are frowned upon.

Mariella Avatar

Y’know, reading through the answers here has reminded me just how much I miss what used to be a regular feature here – the “What We’re Wearing” feature. I really miss that. It gave me some great ideas of looks to try for myself and also helped me remember looks I’d done that I liked.
