Rev 2.0...the original thread was getting girthy.

Can anybody recommend a good drugstore-brand mascara? Is this totally an inappropriate topic for this thread?

[bklynred]

I used Maybelline for years but recently switched to Neutrogena (about $8). It's not as clumpy and although both are billed as hypoallergenic, I personally have more success with Neutrogena. Good luck!

Thanks, bklynred! I'll check it out!

velveeta, there's a makeup and fashion thread in the General Interest section of the boards. You might want to look through there to see if anyone talked about inexpensive mascara before. It's a long thread, though.

I've used Almay One-Coat Lengthening for years. It gives me length without clumping.

I've always been happy with L'oreal's.

I really love L'oreal's Telescopic mascara, if you're looking for length. If you're looking for volume, Max Factor's 2000 Calorie mascara is really nice, but on the pricey side for drug-store make up.

If you like Max Factor products, you may want to stock up:

CINCINNATI (AP) — The Procter & Gamble Co. plans to phase out U.S. distribution of the century-old Max Factor makeup brand, a spokeswoman said Thursday.

The Cincinnati-based consumer products maker said it plans to keep selling Max Factor overseas, where its sales have been strongest, even after it ends U.S. sales of Max Factor products in early 2010.

Is it possible to fall asleep while getting a tattoo done on your face?

Random question, I know. But I was wondering if the teen's story here sounds plausible. Personally I don't see how anyone can fall asleep while a sharp needle is poking into your face repeatedly. Then again, there have been times when I've almost fallen asleep at the dentist, and I suppose some people would think that's strange, too.

I think DListed's assessment was dead on: she got home, daddy pitched a fit, so she decided to deflect blame on someone else. She'll make a good politician someday.
