that Revlon 3-day lash tint "mascara"?

it sucks. it flakes. it splatters easily when it goes on (i have straight, stiff lashes, which i must curl unless i want to SEE them in front of my eyes), and then you must use *oil* to get it off. it continues to flake over the next couple days. WHY did i try it *again* today? well, i'm an idiot.

i have an old flannel-backed tablecloth. i think i'm going to cut an 8" semicircle out, with velcro. i can wrap it around my shoulders, cape style, and keep my damn powder (cornstarch) off my clothes. it will be short enough that i can move my arms, but will still cover my shoulders and neckline/boobs. yes, indeed.

sure, i COULD just find a shirt i could wear, but that's often too binding, what with armholes... or the drapey sleeves get in the way (i could cut 'em off, maybe i should look for a cheap men's shirt at goodwill).

anyhow. that's that.

i need to figure out what lippie i want to wear tonight. got white/silver and blue/black eye stuff on tonight... i have blue lippie, but maybe i don't want it... it smells bad. i need an UNsmelly blue lippie. who the hell puts perfume in lipstick, anyway? really, it's gross. berry flavors are fine, but not perfumy smells.

getting ready to hit the Dawning. YAY!

and i've heard i'm going to get squeaked at. WOOHOO!

I don't hate it as much as you or Risa seem to, but I also only really need it for the ends of my lashes. I tried taking my lash/brow brush out, running the brow side over my lashes after application of the mascra - that seemed to thin it out enough so it wouldn't be clumpy. It still isn't ooophy blackness, but I kept it from spattering everywhere somehow. And I just let it wear off from there.

I have such horrible success from mascara, this is almost a triumph compared to most of them [they usually rub off on my glasses, flake in my eyes, and in general are annoying]
