Can you ask your girls if they felt the color was exact enough? I'd hate to spend money on it and hate it. I need a real life review, please and thanks!

I believe they have only ever ordered from the website’s archive of discontinued shades, and I’ve never heard any complaints. I don’t believe they’ve ever had a custom one made, or least they’ve never told me they have... and if so... what the cost was. But I'll ask.

I want to be there when you ask your wife and daughters some questions about lipstick for your online friend.

Pretty please with mascara on top?

Oh what a novice you are. I’ll approach it by asking “HOW MUCH DOES IT COST WHEN YOU ORDER THAT CUSTOM MADE DISCOUNTED MAKEUP, AND IS IT REALLY WORTH IT?” Of course I can't be held responsible for the lies told to me. :)

So, you don't think they will find it odd that you are asking about makeup? I would think ..... "and why do you want to know?" .....might be the first thing out of their mouths. I mean, it's not like you are getting it for yourself (well, maybe you are, but what you and your Jet fan friends do together is none of my business) and you wouldn't be getting it for them as a surprise if you're asking about it.

Not at all. They’re accustomed to my going off on tirades, when money is concerned, for ridiculous frivolous things that would make no sense to a man... especially when I get a bunch of crap for purchasing needed things like Contact Cement. I’ve a whole arsenal of stupid stuff they’ve bought that I can dredge up from the memory banks at a moment's notice. And I need to pick myself up a new set of baseball cleats this week. Diabolic isn’t just the basis for a name you know. :)

Do you use this for a foundation when applying your makeup? If so, we will need to reopen the beauty tips for men thread.:D

Don’t know about makeup, but discovered it works wonders if you want to permanently attach a putty knife to your hand while tackling a kitchen counter job after a couple of scotch and sodas while watching the Penn State football game. :)

I like that one! I like a Rimmel color (Berry Blush) that I can't find anywhere anymore :(. Finding something that works with my skin tone is HARD--most are either too orange or too pink.

Nothing like a visit to the in-laws house to remind you how little they think of your family. Pictures of SIL & BIL's kids everywhere, absolutely none of ours anywhere. After 25 years it shouldn't surprise me, but… yeah. *sigh*
My daughter knows that same feeling. Her in-laws are always watching her sil's kids, but when my daughter asks them to watch Kaden, nad Kat, they are always 'busy'. Karen doesn't ask them very often, but a few weeks ago, wanted to go to the movies with her husband. Her MIL said she had to go back to work. It was on a Saturday NIGHT! bs. They really do show favoritism.

They clearly don't know what they're missing! Imagine their regret when they do.
