The one thing... - Eternal Allegiance

Today I was using my flat iron and thought to myself, "Wow. I couldn't live without this."

Just curious - what's the one "beauty product" you can't live without? Mine's, yes, my flat iron. I really don't understand how I lived without it before...ew. Un-straightened hair = mess.

So yeah, what's the thing you think you'd be lost without?

Shampoo?

I don't use beauty products, Mandy.

Umm probably moisturizer. I dunno. Just coming back from a class trip where I wore no makeup for a week and did jack shit with my hair, it's hard to say. I actually use a lot of things religiously though. OH my cocoa butter chapstick stuff. <33333333 that.

My curling iron. I have to curl my hair every day or it looks like crap.

How long does it take you guys to straighten/curl your hair?

Hmm.. I must have flawless [looking] skin at ALL times, for me having good skin is a must. So if I have a blemish I put a little bit concealer on it. But only on the blemish, never on my whole face, because that doesn't look right, and people can always tell you're wearing something. So I guess I'll go with a concealer stick.

Definitely gonna have to go with "soap" here.

Just thought I'd randomly wander into this forum area and make a post

Be pretty stinky without soap

LMAO Logan...that's a good thing.

diddy <3 I try to speed iron (?) like sometimes I barely have time to do it so I can go 5-10 minutes. It usually doesn't look as good as I want it to though. If I want it to look really nice, I'll let my iron heat up about 15-20 minutes, maybe even half an hour, while I'm doing something else...then I put half my hair up, straighten, let down the rest of my hair, straighten...I can do it in 15-20 I think, give or take a few minutes. Usually no more than that, but I have long and thick hair so yeah.

OOOH Mandy you gotta get a CHI flat iron. omg <333 It heats up in 60 seconds and it only takes one swoop (?) and that part of your hair is done. It's so perfect, I love it. I used to think I couldn't live without it, but then I got really lazy and just let my hair be naturally wavy/curly-ish and it actually wasn't that bad. People would comment on how it looked good. *shrug*

Ummm but I prolly couldnt live without....damn. I'm with dids, my skin HAS to look good 'else I am in a pissy mood, or I just dont want to step out of the house. So probably my MAC compact...

That's the thing...I've never been big on foundation/concealer/powder stuff. I wash my face twice (average) daily, and I dunno...I don't feel the need for that crap. I only put it on if I have a zit (which isn't often thank God) or I'm going out somewhere really nice or something. I'm weird

And ooooh, that iron sounds nice Bexy <3 I have a Vidal Sassoon one. I'm pretty happy with it, it works REALLY well, but it doesn't get hot fast enough sometimes. Maybe that's because my hair so thick?

When I don't straighten my hair, sometimes people will comment and SOMEtimes, I can get it to look okay wavyish. But normally, it's more work for me to make it look good without ironing it so...poop on that.

AS Janice Dickinson stated in her book Im affected with Perfliction, trying to look as humanly "perfect" as possible *sigh*. I just believe if you look good you'll fell good. I would have to say my tinted moisturizer. Not only does it soften the skin but it also cover minor imperfection. Oh and a toothbrush for keeping my teeth clean but also making my lips look as big as possible
