agree about MAC 'girls' they all have bright green and orange eyeshadow and hair like Phil Oakey (well they do in kendals in manchester)

Katie - I have the moonbeam paint on highlighting stuff which is nice in the evening time.

katierocket · 27/06/2005 19:47

I tried some of a friends once and I looked odd; kind of slimey

Yes - needs to be used very sparingly if you want to avoid the greasey look!

Well, it's my 30th on Thursday, so will probably have a bigger budget afterwards

But need oodles of help!

Err...have no real idea how much decent make-up costs or actually even what decent make-up is! Am too scared by the glossy women who look v scary in department stores, so just skulk in Boots usually. Just buy the occasional eyeliner and mascara and lipstick and hope for the best usually!

Feel v liberated to say this! And v ashamed

hypnose gave me one big eyelash
