Some pics from today new eyebrows, mascara, hair, pregnancy tummy- feedback pls!

I have this one dress that I wear towards the end of each pregnancy because it shows off my tummy. I don't have the pictures from the other two on this hard drive and not sure where I can locate them-- but if I can, I will

I bought some new mascara based on many gal's raves on here- YSL Faux Cils. I LOVE it! I was using Dejavu Fiberwig and I still like that but I *really* love YSL Faux Cils. I bought this a couple of weeks ago on one of my trips to Chicago (for my ob appts.) at Nordstrom. Before I bought it, I went to Sephora to try Diorshow and I was not impressed. I then headed to Nordstrom and asked them to apply the faux Cils. I was SOLD. Anyway, here's two pics of my eyes wearing the Faux Cils. I didn't wear eyeshadow today because I just didn't feel like it. Also, I got my eyebrows done and thinned out.

Full face AFTER my eyebrows were waxed, trimmed and thinned:

Another picture AFTER my eyebrows were "done". Also check out the new lippie I got by Rimmell Underground Kiss Off Lip Gloss in 500 First Time. I LOVE it! I just wish it had staying power

Here were my eyebrows before I got them waxed, trimmed and thinned:

An another full face before I got my eyebrows done:

And here's my last one, side profile of me big and pregnant with 25 days to go!!

I also got my haircut again as it had grown out and then I colored it this morning with Loreal Preference 6RR. I did this same color before and wasn't sure I liked it right after I did it. Then I decided I LOVE it. Again, feedback?

Here's the limited amount of makeup I have on:

Copper Peptide Serum on freshly cleansed face
Lure Beauty Emu Oil
Essence of Beauty Airbrush Makeup Primer
Shu Uemura curler to curl eyelashes
Faux Cils by Lancome for mascara
Rimmell eyebrow pencil (very lightly and can't remember the color- it was a taupey color)
Meow Cosmetic Inquisitive Chausie Pampered Puss MMU applied dry with EDM flat top brush
Lure Beauty Enchanted Blush applied with Lumiere Cosmetics Dual Fiber Optic Brush
Meow Cosmetics Crystalline Cat Glow Powder on nose, cheeks, forehead and chin applied with Lumiere Fiber Optic Powder Brush Rimmell Underground kiss Off Lip Gloss in 500 First Time

Ok, feedback y'all

I got thick skin!

Warmly,

Brandi

Thank Lisa

What do you think about the eyebrows? Before (thicker, etc.) or now?

Warmly,

Brandi

I think your eyebrows are perfect. They look better thinner. I wish I could wear mine that thin!

***pinksugar*** · 03-02-2008, 07:37 PM

your eye brows look amazing! I always think that a really good waxed eye brow makes an unbeliveable difference. It opens up your whole face!

the yls faux cils is pretty awesome! is that the gold one that smells like peaches?

Thanks for the feedback regarding the eyebrows y'all!

I guess it is taking some time to get used to them because it's so drastic. I think I've had my eyebrows this thin once before and I felt the same way.

And regarding the Faux Cils-- it is in a gold container but I have no idea if it smells like peaches! HA! I never bothered smelling it! I'll have to smell it before I go to bed. Doh!

Warmly,

Brandi

Your brows look fabulous too!

***luxotika*** · 03-02-2008, 10:02 PM

Lookin' good girl!

***ColdDayInHell*** · 03-02-2008, 10:32 PM

You look fabulous! She did an excellent job with the brows. Hope the final stretch of your pregnancy goes as planned.

***Marisol*** · 03-03-2008, 12:05 AM

You've got the glow!

***GlossyAbby*** · 03-03-2008, 05:44 AM

you look great

beaglette · 03-03-2008, 05:54 AM

Thanks y'all!

I always hate to ask for feedback because I feel like I'm asking for a compliment and I'm sooo not!! I seriously am pretty unsure of myself. Sometimes I think things look ok and sometimes I think they look hideous. I think it's that whole "I use to be morbidly obese, physically, and I always will be, mentally."

At any rate, thanks y'all. I'm liking my eyebrows after a few days. I think, as someone said, it makes a WORLD of difference!

Thanks for the well wishes on the pregnancy too

We'll see what the doc says tomorrow!

Warmly,

Brandi

I think you look radiant and beautiful, Brandi. Your eyebrows look great.

***Ricci*** · 03-03-2008, 12:00 PM

Congrats on the pregancy~ U look fantastic!

***4getmeNot*** · 03-03-2008, 01:04 PM

your brows look great! they really do make a whole face difference.

you definately look happily pregnant, which is good to see. you have that radiant glow that preg women tend to have..

***Dragonfly*** · 03-03-2008, 02:01 PM

I think you look fabulous. Being pregnant certainly agrees with you.

beaglette · 03-03-2008, 02:07 PM

Thanks again ya'll (for those who poasted after I said thanks last time). You are being too kind.

If you saw me right now, you would not say pregnancy agrees with me, Carolyn. Ha. My contractions are a few minutes apart and they are actually hurting now. I am quite irritable and I'm just trying to keep my mind off of it because i really think it's a false alarm again. I just need to try and hold out until tomorrow because I really don't feel like traveling 2 hours tonight just to be told it wasn't anything

Thanks again

Warmly,

Brandi
