It wouldn't be the Enterprise without a Sulu at the helm

I found tinted moisturizer to be kind of washy. I don't know, it looks really bad and streaky on my face where a BB cream is more even coverage. Also, I can put on regular moisturizer then put on the BB cream if my face feels a little dry. You can also use the BB cream then put on foundation for even more coverage.

I dunno, I just prefer it. I can just slap it on and leave the house or build up coverage without looking like I'm caked on a shitload of makeup.

hey man I'm a student, and also it went down in the evening for me when I probably wouldn't be working anyways

the BB cream stuff is fine for me because I don't use any skin cream at all so I'm not having to worry about it replacing anything, plus it was actually cheaper than the tinted moisturizers and foundations

Geisha used to wear something that had bird poop mixed in it, and also some severe chemicals.

Ben Nye Clown White, bold (probably brown-toned) lip color of your choice, black eye liner, possibly a black brow pencil if your eye liner won't work for that, plus a black wig, a lot of hairspray, and some way to add the white lines to your hair. A single weft of synthetic white hair, cut up, glued together, and sewn in before the hairspraying, might work.

They have new improved stuff that won't kill you slowly, but it's still kind of unusual (they generally mix it up right before application) and there's a lot of other steps like coating your skin in an oil base coat basically.

This is good to know. My springtime plans include going to Kyoto and having Maiko dress me up like a Geisha and then teaching me the (shortened for tourists) tea ceremony. I'm stoked that I will not be smearing bird poo on my face.

http://www.kyoto-maiko.com/English/ You sure can! There are also photo studios here that have Kimono you can borrow and makeup/hair artists for formal pictures. I love seeing the traditional baby pictures in the windows. Elaborate formal kimono are very expensive. I love seeing older ladies on the trains on the weekends in their pretty kimono and teeny tiny zori. (flip floppy shoes)

I don't understand why owls are so fashionable but it's all cool with me since it means I get to look as twee as possible at all times. I saw the cutest owl dress the other day (and it had pockets!) but didn't buy it because I was meant to be looking for bridesmaid dresses for my sister's wedding and now I wish I had

Neat fact about geishas: Because of their weird terrible hairstyle, they can't use normal pillows, they use little wooden neck pillows to keep their heads off the ground. Also, they all have bald spots, unless they get surgery to fix it.

My grandmother on my dad's side collected owl figurines her entire life. When she passed away, they decided to leave a table full of them at the wake for people to take and remember her by. I thought it was sweet.

Dresses with functional pockets make the world go round.

Ok ladies (and dudes and whoever), I am supposed to go on a date with a boy tomorrow but he is being suuuuuuuper flaky about setting up the actual details of the date and I don't know this city well enough to pick a good spot. I just want to text cute things to each other but he's a horrible texter (so far) and dating is the worst, etc. :(

Protip: Don't text him too often because that poo poo just comes off as clingy.

It's fine that you like texting. If he doesn't plus he's being super flaky about setting up a date, it's probably not gonna work out. Dating is the worst -- the best you can do is cut your losses early.

THIS!

over the phone I feel compelled to make small talk and make the act of dialing a number and/or picking up the phone worth it. with texting you just say exactly what you need to, get a response back, let them know "cool thanks" and then boom you're done now you're ready to meet at a location and flirty flirt talk

Yeah, if someone's super keen on talking on the phone instead of texting it's probably not going to work out with me. And I have personally found that if a dude can't be bothered to send a few texts, he's probably not that interested.

But I wish you the best, taco show.
