Emily commented on Dec 12 11 at 7:08 am… the two tone lips are cute, but does that mean you can’t press your lips together all night?!
michellehorton commented on Dec 12 11 at 7:12 am@Emily: I was thinking the same exact thing. How long can it last?
Danielle commented on Dec 13 11 at 12:53 pmI actually have ombre hair right now and I love it! My hair is dark brown fading into a honey blonde at the ends. It’s low maintenance too which is great since I’m giving birth in January!
michellehorton commented on Dec 13 11 at 1:59 pm@Danielle: Congrats on your pregnancy!! And I love the low-maintenance appeal of the ombre look.
Summer commented on Dec 13 11 at 2:02 pmPlease, I’ve been rockin’ pink eyeshadow since highschool lol. While most of the time it’s light pink shimmer, sometimes I kick it up with a matte hot pink. If I’m feeling particularly adventurous, or a bit goth, I’ll run hot pink all around my eye and smudge it. I didn’t realize that it was “in”, guess I was “cool” for a minute hehe.
Sarah commented on Jan 01 12 at 1:11 amI think the silver/blue lipstick thing may have come to be because of all the zombie stuff lately.Make yourself look like the undead, it’s HOT! lol
yasemin commented on Jan 02 12 at 5:59 pmi’m scared about the whole stamped on hair color thing yeeeeeeep
Tanya commented on Jan 02 12 at 9:04 pmBeing a woman myself, I don’t get why so many others of my kind adhere to such ludicrous fashion trends. For me, the eternal, never-fading trend is just to be yourself and don’t give a …. what others think.
Shea Tek commented on Jan 03 12 at 12:50 amI never liked the hair feathers, though I use pink eye shadow almost every day. Hard Candy baked eyeshadow used wet looks good when it’s pink–not like those weird pictures. I did dye my hair light pink this year and do black tips. I like it, but you know–different strokes for different folks.
ShelbyAlice commented on Jan 03 12 at 3:09 amI have dip-dyed hair, and I love it (: Right now it’s dark brown with the ends bleached blonde, but I have had it teal, and before that bright red. It’s a very easy to keep hairstyle and very simple to do. I did all of mine by myself!
FluffFluff commented on Jan 03 12 at 1:44 pmHonestly, they aren’t “Bizarre” compared to other things I’ve seen. All of these trends are pretty tame.
Amanda commented on Mar 15 12 at 1:54 pmI’ve used the stick on nail polish and it is AMAZING! Lasts SO much longer than normal nail polish but can be taken off as easily as it is put on!
