I love Huetopia, too! And Ralph, for that matter.

I think Huetopia is one of the underappreciated MAC lipsticks - maybe the funky tangerine colour turns people off, but it looks so nice and surprisingly natural!

And I’m pretty pleased with Ralph. I tried it a couple of months ago, but I thought the fragrance was a bit funny and it didn’t last long on me. But I bought it when I saw it on eBay for half price, and the scent is still lingering after 12 hours.

Perfume: Actually, it’s a mixture of essential oils and the like. It goes by the name “Night Queen.” No aerosol. The SO says it smells like sandalwood.

Lipstick: Actually, it’s lip gloss. Mary Kate and Ashley Olson. “No Way.” Failing that…Cose in “Swept Away.”

Hair Color: Clairol Nice N Easy. Used to be #121. Natural Darkest Brown. Starts off black–so I get to look all gothy for a couple of weeks–then fades EXACTLY to my natural color.

Foundation: I don’t really wear it very often, so I don’t buy by brand. But usually the second or third to the lightest shade.

Mascara: I like the new Maybellene Blackest Black, but it runs. Otherwise, anything waterproof.

Lotion: St. Ives. The silk stuff. 'Cause it isn’t all greasy and stuff.

Perfume: Eternity by Calvin Klein and Pink by Gap

And all this time I thought I was outgrowing the teenaged tomboy phase and becoming girly. Apparently not.

–perfume: Uhh, I used to steal whatever my mom had on the dresser. She had some Ralph Lauren stuff that ruled. Since I’ve moved out, I just wear the scented lotions and perfumes people have given me as presents. My favorite is Victoria Secret’s Amber Romance lotion. Don’t laugh at the name, it smells really good!

–lipstick brand/shade: I only wear lip gloss these days. Earth tones work for me.

–at-home hair color/shade: Ehh, black? Tis my natural color.

–face wash: Just regular bar soap.

–foundation: Umm.

–mascara: Ehh? Mascara’s evil. I couldn’t wear it if I wanted to, anyway. I tried, but whenever I blink, the mascara gets all over the place. My eyelashes are long and eeeevil.

–lotion: Jergens! Makes me skin feel soft and purdy. ::giggles::

perfume: Assorted body splashes from Bath & Body Works and Victoria’s Secret. I like a variety. (Currently wearing: Victoria’s Secret Strawberries & Champagne.)

lipstick: Chapstick, SPF 15.

I don’t really use alot of beauty products… I wash my face with a bar of soap and I only put on make up maybe once a month… I put on lotion when I remember and I only put on my perfume when I can find it(wich isn’t often)… Sure, I’ve got boobs but I’m not really a girl…

AAAIIIIIIGGGH!!! That is the best perfume in the world… Just seeing the name almost made me jump out of my skin!!! Smelling it makes me find the woman and…

Wow, I am so happy just seeing it in print. Best ever.

Oh god…!

<If only there were a smiley wreathed in lightning…!!>

Needless to say, my wife hates it, so I love her for other reasons. She wears stuff that makes me nauseous. :frowning:
