@Icegoddess That's great to hear that your heart is doing well and your circulation is great Smiley Happy!  I have Reynauds too- I read somewhere that it tends to start in women in their 30's and it started once I hit 30 (I'm 35 now.) Reynauds causes my hands to turn bluish purple and ghost white when it happens.  I lessened the flare ups a lot by lifting heavy weights and doing aerobics every day- exercising intensely and weightlifting really help bring my blood flow to my hands.  I can't use the touchscreen on my phone either when my hands are cold Smiley Very Happy

The Tarte rep (Stephanie) has the strangest shaped eyebrows I've ever seen. She has a high arch and then the tails dip straight down toward her eyes.

I think she thinks the high arch helps her face shape but I find them very disconserting to see. I've never seen eyebrows shaped like that before. 

You can see her on the Tarte show with Val on hsn this morning.

@luvmyteddy4  The Tarte rep has great thickness to her brows and nice eyes- I think if she plucked the downward turn of the tails and made it a straighter brow towards the ends it would really flatter her eyes even more. Smiley Happy

It really would, I can't believe no one has said anything to her. She has beautiful eyes.

@luvmyteddy4  She really does have very pretty eyes and all she has to do is get her brows professionally done or do them herself one time and then maintain that shape at home with tweezers.  Eyebrows are tricky- its so easy to get stuck with a certain shape or arch that may work for others, but doesn't work for everybody.  I learned early on that the less I do to my eyebrows the better. I shape them a little, but they're bold, broad, bushy and groomed with minimal arch and they pair nicely with my hooded angular blue green eyes.  My brow idols are Brooke Shields and Romy Schneider. How do you do your brows? Smiley Happy

@PINKdogWOOD,

Where do you order it from? When I looked at Full Brow Cosmetics it did say $16 but when I was looking at their 3 in 1 and the skinny brow, and the brow fibre it looked like they all did the same thing. Then I took the brow quiz hoping it would help and all of a sudden each went up to $25! The weirdest thing.

I would think many of them have microblading done to their brows. Just a guess as it  gives the look of a perfect brow without all the fuss.  I had microblading done and it was the best money I've ever spent on myself.  As far as the shiny thing, yes it could be the lights and it also could be their moisturizer showing through.


I've had the microblading done too and I love it!  They look great and agree that was money well spent.

 The girl that does my brows puts something on them b4 microblading to dull any discomfort and lets it sit for a while This is not a procedure that is done quickly.

@Icegoddess Just FYI, when microblading they actually do a specific measurement of the bone structure of your face to get  the correct symmetry.   Also they will draw them on first and color them in so you can see what they will look like.  I don't wear makeup generally at all and I always have the perfect brows.   They look real and actually make my eyes look pretty!

My niece is a hair stylist and she can't believe how nice they look........go for it!  


@LindaSal , are your brows graying yet?  Seems like that would require some extra upkeep.


@LindaSal not really I use a product from Benifit to touch up the grey hairs which I was using b4 doing the microblading.
