Hey ladies, I'm new at this make-up thingie and found this website. I'm not sure if it has been posted before as I didn't go through 21 pages of this thread. lol

So are you all pretty much satisfy with this product as a base of make up?

Hello again ;) Just go through a few pages of this thread and you will read the raves. It's amazing on my skin. Nothing keeps me from getting shiny all day except this and it's CHEAP. what's not to love?
 
...the embarassment of buying chafing gel...
I already posted the Anti-Embarrassment Spell once, but the thread is long, so I'll post it again.

When you get to the cash register, plop down your chafing gel, lean in toward the cashier, and say loudly:

"Do you know this stuff makes better foundation primer than that Smashbox stuff that costs $40?"

Then turn around, shrug, smile sweetly at the people behind you say "it really does!"
 
I just ordered two 3-packs from Amazon for $36.30, which comes out to $6.05 per tube. Can't wait to try it even though I am no a Primer gal!

I also noticed that there is an additional discount with auto-ship, "Save 15% with Subscribe and Save" with options for it to ship automatically. You get free shipping even on one 3-pack for $15.43, which comes out to $5.14. (Still doesn't beat Shimma's price for her CVS clone, though!!)
 
I know! And really, with all the years we hopefully live, each of us will probably buy our share of Vagisil, yeast infection stuff, condoms, and lots of other stuff that you would not necessarily want to buy with your grandma standing next to you. It's just life!

I'm not embarrassed to buy anything. In fact, DH always sends me out to buy anything he vaguely considers embarrassing.

:roflmfao:

I would try Monistat in a nutshell but my current make up routine works super well since I don't need much coverage.

Ah Shimma... it would work for you, but my version would be filled with giggles between words. I shall ask my shameless friend.
 
Hell...if it does for your face what it suppose to do for your ass, I guess I'm game. :graucho:

LOL - at first I was kind of freaked out but then I was like - it hasn't actually BEEN on anyone's butt yet.

As for the embarassment - I go to a store where my students work and so I tell them all about how it's for my face when I check out - (we also use it as a base for theatre makeup so my studenst know I use it for that.)
 
Some SA thought I was mental when I bought my Lanacane

The package is BRIGHT YELLOW. I did inlist the help of an SA to help me locate it though. I informed her that i intend to put it on my face.

SA: are you serious?
ME: yes!! honestly its amazing!
SA: you put it on your face?
ME: it has pretty much the same ingredients as the really expensive stuff and trust me it works.
SA: so what does it do?
ME: it fills in pores and fine lines with a light breathable layer that dries silky soft.
SA: but you don't have any fine lines
ME: exactly! (i was wearing my gosh primer at the time)

I think i managed to convince her that i wasn't crazy

If it works I DON'T care how embarassing it is to buy! I think I remember that PH is especially good for puffy eyes...makes sense. I have the opposite problem...eye hollows. Maybe someone else could chime in.

She might have thought you were crazy, but I GUARANTEE she bought some for herself!
