Vanity About Vanity - Share Your Beauty Secrets and Fashion Tips
April 18, 2006

Posted on 04/18/2006 12:51:09 PM PDT by sweetliberty

Okay ladies...and self-proclaimed metrosexuals. I have never seen this topic on FR before, although I don't doubt that it has been here and I have just missed it. There are a lot of smart and attractive women on FR, and since we women put so much time, money and effort into how we look, doesn't it seem like a good idea to share what we've learned.

Do you shave or wax? Color your hair? Sun, salon or self tan? Where do you shop? What is your skin care routine and what do you use? What are you happy with and what do you want to change? Have you had...or would you have cosmetic surgery? Tatoos and piercings? What about diet and health tips? How do you choose your colors? Are you a jewelry fanatic? A clothes horse? Elegant or simple? Classy or cool? Lace or linen? Do you work out? Go dancing? Hike? Ride? Chase kids? What are your diet do's and don't's? What gets you motivated? What are your best features? Complete this sentence: "I hate my ...." Do you enjoy shopping...or hate it? What have you bought new for spring? The possibilities are endless....

My cousin is an artist, and she paints with her dress inside out, then turns it right before heading to the store.

I swear. She's crazy.

Why is it that no one drops by when I'm in my best clothes,
but the second I put on my cleaning grungies, half the county shows up!??!

Sunscreen every day.

I only shampoo my scalp. The rest of my hair gets conditioner.

Jeans. Lipstick on special occasions.

Haven't solved dark circles yet. Some day I won't have to.

Pick your parents wisely. Nothing will make up for bad genes.

Be happy too, nothing beats a smile for improving your looks.

when you figure out the dark circles, would you let me know?

Here's one for spider veins and broken facial capilaries: vitamin K lotion. It works!

You're welcome dear lady.

I'm quite sure you and your daughter do not and will not get tattooed or pierced.

I have a real problem with women with tattoos/pierced bodies.

I just don't understand the desire to desecrate the human body ...men or women...however, Marines are an exception...they are devil dogs and I love them so!

"Or, in her words, don't show too much "boobage" or "buttage".

Lots of water, lots of sleep.

I need a solid 6.5-8 hours of sleep each night.

I agree with you 100% about drinking lots of water. See my other post on this thread :)

"SO; you were bored, huh?"

LOL! No. I never seem to find time for the luxury of boredom. But I often find myself in need of diversion.

I can make an exception for Admiral Halsey.

"I need a solid 6.5-8 hours of sleep each night. "

That's is a pretty precise sleeping schedule you have there. 6 5/8 hours of sleep? Just round up and get 7 hours in.
