Mumble Report post Posted July 27, 2008 I told you I was bored!!! Is this enough to qualify for entry into the Lipstick Aspie Secret Society (LASS)? Colour co-ordinated and everything I'm quite chuffed with myself - first time I've ever used any makeupy stuff of any description - I found a vid of how to do it on t'net, bought the necessary and spent a whole morning getting them 'right'!! They don't sparkle on the piccy as much as they do in real life But it takes ages - how on earth do any of you have any time for anything else?? :unsure: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tally Report post Posted July 27, 2008 My toes are pretty horrid. I would be in big trouble if I posted a picture of my toes, because they would be offensive to small children. Did you use one of those toe separators? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mumble Report post Posted July 27, 2008 Also, what cute little toes you have I could say 'like me', but that would be a lie revealed at a meet-up - they're actually tiny toes attached to less cute feet - no wonder I trip over really, hardly good for balance. And don't get me started on ballet classes .... Point your toes Mumble. I am pointing me toes, I just don't have very much toe to point. I did them properly, two coats of the shimmery turquoise colour and then one coat of the clear with sparklie bits of different blues and silvers :hypno: I'm not going to try doing my fingernails - that would be overkill plus my left hand is really weak and I'll probably get it everywhere trying to do my right nails. It would confuse people who know me and know I don't do makeup though ... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mumble Report post Posted July 27, 2008 I never do nail varnish on my finger nails because I end up picking it off Well I got bored and did my fingers to match. :hypno: That was even harder. Can't see it lasting; I keep 'noticing' my fingers and thinking I have something on them and try to get rid of it ... :lol: That varnish and the cleaner are quite potent, aren't they?

Mumble Report post Posted July 27, 2008 Did you use one of those toe separators? Nope, I used two! :lol: Out of interest, is it a feature of the multi-cultural area in which I live that toe separators come in a range of skin tones, or is this normal? I did think about asking for green ones and claiming discrimination against Martians, but thought I'd probably get thumped by the store's security guard :fight: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tally Report post Posted July 27, 2008 I had some once and they were vivid pink. Was this for people with sunburnt feet? They don't really need to be the colour of your skin anyway. How odd. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flora Report post Posted July 27, 2008 Just remembered.... a famous chemist does their own makeup range... one being suffixed with a number 7 (the name of the range that is).... they do a nail varnish which dries in one minute... and it really does !

baddad Report post Posted July 27, 2008 I've shaved my toes... can I be a lickstick aspie too? Toe separators? Are they they same as secateurs? They were very effective at separating toes from the rest of the foot when I was working with Big Tony and da rest of da guys Just two questions - what are licksticks and what is aspie? I'm assuming it has something to do with snakes, which is why I wanna join. I like snakes - ever since I attended the Texas Rattler Roast 'n' BarBQ when I was touring the good ol' US of a with my band, The Fridge Magnets...... If two lipstick aspies have a fight do they make up afterwards? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mumble Report post Posted July 28, 2008 I took my fingers off last night :lol: Couldn't cope with the 'feel' of them and the constant feeling that I had something on my hands Maybe I'm not quite a lipstick Aspie, after all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tally Report post Posted July 28, 2008 Oh Bid, you must have a really dirty mind, because I know that smiley isn't the type to say anything rude. I'm sure she meant legs or something perfectly innocent! I took my fingers off last night Now that's a bit extreme! Did you at least save your typing finger? I don't like the feeling of nail varnish either, but people used to think I was silly for saying that because apparently you can't feel it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheNeil Report post Posted July 28, 2008 people used to think I was silly for saying that because apparently you can't feel it If I say that you can feel nail varnish then people might wonder how I'd know that...so I won't say it (Suffice to say though, I don't wear nail varnish) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mumble Report post Posted August 11, 2008 HELP!!!!! - Need help from true lipstick Aspies (and anyone else who might know ...) How do you get this stuff off? My toes lasted looking lovely (my nails don't grow at a normal rate so there weren't any gaps or anything) - coped with swimming and all sorts of activities - then I take them North and they chip (obviously to fit in with Northern fashions ) So I decided this morning that I'd better remove them all - got nail varnish remover pads and set to work ... and nothing happened. Half a pot of remover pads in and I've managed to removed 3 toes worth - still got 7 to go - I'm wondering if I did accidentally use Warren's enamel paint instead of nail polish. So, is there some trick to getting it off? And how do you cope with the smell of the remover fluid (other than not breathing)? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smiley Report post Posted August 11, 2008 This is the one downside of the extra sparklie nail varnish, t'is a b*gger to remove! Best thing is to hold the nail varnish remover pad on the nail for a couple of seconds (minutes.....hours..... ), and then wipe it off. Gives the remover a chance to get through the sparklieness! T'is why i stick to normal nail varnish - without extra glittery bits. I just don't have the patience to remove it all! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mumble Report post Posted August 11, 2008 Thanks Smiley - it's the glittery bits causing the problem - because it had large glittery bits and some appear to have sunk through the blue polish and fastened themselves securely to my nails Best thing is to hold the nail varnish remover pad on the nail for a couple of seconds (minutes.....hours..... ), and then wipe it off. Gives the remover a chance to get through the sparklieness! I am now sitting with remover pads on my seven toes - it's a really attractive look I'm going to be fighting men off at this rate :wub: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bid Report post Posted August 11, 2008 Smiley's right... I put pads soaked with remover onto my toe nails and leave them there. If you leave them long enough you should be able to wipe off everything in more or less one go. Also, I find the remover in a bottle and separate pads are more efficient than the pre-soaked pad thingys. You have to suffer to be beautiful you know!!
