    Ma-ri-ella I'm guessing you also have the UD sin primer potion, do you find your shadow creasing when you use it (I might be wrong in assuming you have it but you seem a junkie like me :p) - or is it just me? I just don't find it to keep shadows put like the original.

    Thought I'd share my nail pic (or try to!!)

    Painted last night with Maybelline express finish in Mocha

    ebayfeb13006-1.jpg

    woo hoo - I did it! :j Although after trying to reduce it from being HUGE - its now probably a little too small. Oh well, with practice I'll get it right.

    UPDATE: yeah I got it about right...............oooh I'm fair chuffed now :D

    Ma-ri-ella I'm guessing you also have the UD sin primer potion, do you find your shadow creasing when you use it (I might be wrong in assuming you have it but you seem a junkie like me :p) - or is it just me? I just don't find it to keep shadows put like the original.

    wow what an amazing guess!! :P not actually got round to using it yet still got an original,one in eden and that to use (oh and the too faced one -any good?. should i post the upated stash list..think it would shock:eek: a few people!!

    Nah injections are a no go for me :o

    I seem to not be any good with the progestron only stuff, which both the implant and cerezette were and as the injection is the same Id be terrified Id be the same with that...

    Like the implant (which made me want to rip my arm off) I couldnt stand the thought of something being in my body I had no control off, I think the injection would make me feel the same - at least with the pill I can stop taking it when I want etc

    Also I faint every time I have a needle stuck in me, passing out every 3 months doesnt sound too appealing ;)

    Funnily enough, I was on Cerazette and it completely messed me up. The dosage just wouldn't suit me. I know the injections are the same stuff, but it really is different. Honestly, the change in my life is ridiculously good - at least have a chat with your doctor about it?

    As for hating needles, I always find looking at the syringe is the sick-making bit. However, since this one is stuck in your bum cheek, I really don't have that problem. I might talk out of it, but I certainly can't see out of it. :D

    Pudsey, that's a lovely colour. I often worry about painting fingernails because I'm never sure about what colours look good on short nails. I'm better with my toes because I can do it all right handed too!
    My wake up light arrived today. I really like the shape of it and am looking forward to using it on Tuesday morning (I've only got 4 nights on, as I've got 2 nights holiday- woop woop!).
    May save my foam party to Monday in that case so I can have a good bash at it. Cheerio ladies, happy Friday evening to those with the weekend off :)

    I know what you mean - cause anything too dark seems to emphasise that nails are short.

    When I paint my right hand - I find it easier to hold the brush in the left hand still and move the right hand (thats being painted) away from the brush. (Hope that makes sense?) Dont know if anyone else does it that way - but it works for me!
