I know so many of you love Carmindy (as do I!) I just got her newsletter the other day (which is free to subscribe to, so what are you waiting for?!) and she gave a great list of what her favorite things are.

What are your favorite things?
i love carmindy! she is so pretty and sweet and always does a great job on “what not to wear.”
Love Carmindy’s new makeup look in a recent show! I would love to get the same look for myself. On the eyes she had white or beige on lids and a smooth pink color that made her look 10 years younger! She is definately doing something new and I love the new look. I need to find out what she’s wearing! Please help!
what does she spray on the face before applying foundation ?
Thank you,
Faye
Carmindy is great. I love “what not to wear” not only for the fashion tips, but also for the makeup tips. She always maeks people looks so good with minimal makeup. I subscribed to her website newsletter and i get emailed makeup tips all the time. ladies check it out.
I know alot of people play “Spot the Beauty Brand” on “What Not to Wear,” Carmindy is one of my faves as well! I’m shopping around for a new beauty book (already have Iman’s and Allure’s) and I’m trying to decide between hers and one of Bobbi Brown’s. I’ve thumbed through them both and they’re equally helpful. Sigh. Decisions decisions.
carmindy is too cute, i love hearing all of her tips. i didnt know she had a book out tho. ashley, whats the book like & im wondering if the allure book is worth it. ive been considering it but not sure.
some of my favorite beauty products areee
1. head and shoulders shampoo lol, don’t hate ok! makes my hair feel nice and silky and thats all that matters :p
2. almay eye enhancers for brown eyes, this might be the first compact i’ll finish!
3. everyday mineral foundation and blush
silky color and fairly priced
4. prescriptives custom blend lipgloss. perfect gloss i tell ya
5. clinique lipstick in violet berry (perfect old hollywood starlet look!)
I like Carmindy as well, but could she PLEASE put a bra on? If I had to guess, she and Stacy would not get along too well. Just a guess.
