Gal Talk thread for all the ladies !!!
Enough politics and computers for a while...
What guys look hot? What beauty tips can you share? Where do you like to shop? More !!!
Some folks said that The Last Samari had too much Tom Cruise. That may have been true, but he was still a hunk.
Anyone have any experience with Eyelash Tinting? I was thinking about trying that. I don't wear makeup to work, but I do when going out and to parties and such. My skin and hair are light and you can't really see my eyelashes. I was thinking that darkening my eyelashes would look good even without makeup.
[COLOR=deeppink]Girltalk! Ooh how much fun this will be!! [/COLOR]
I find that I prefer the scent and effectiveness of Hoppes No. 9, but will make do with Shooter's Choice in a pinch.

So, the guys that you date like when you wear Hoppes No. 9 instead of Chanel No. 5 ?
What guys look hot?
Besides mine...;)
Gotta agree with the hunkdom that is Tom Cruise. I've always had a thing for him, and what REALLY sealed the deal for me is when he did Mission Impossible...Lawdha'mercy he was yummy! :D
Lessee, who else? Just off the top of my head: Brad Pitt (CLEAN, not mountain man dirty), George Clooney (he has that classic movie star look), Pierce Brosnan (sp??), the perfect James Bond (imo), Colin Ferrell (sp??), that bad boy aspect, David Gahan (lead singer for Depeche Mode)..gosh, too many to list! ;)
What beauty tips can you share?
Gosh...um, well, if you use an eyeliner pencil, and you need to make it darker on your lid, light a match to it for a couple of seconds. (Sheesh, that tip sounds so old now!) :p
Where do you like to shop? More !!!
Now you're talking. Shopping! (Syc, look away! LOL!)
I'm an "old school" mall rat from the 80s, so any mall is fine with me (although I tend to favor the more "upscale" malls. Around here, for me, that would be King Of Prussia mall, but that's a drive from my house, so Franklin Mills will do). As far as specific stores, anything to do with electronics, gadgets, shiny things, music, coffee or photography will catch my eye.
And believe it or not, I love to get out there and shop. All this shopping online takes away from the "hunt"...lol. I don't shop online anyway, and IMO, I'm not missing anything (except maybe an outrageous credit card bill).
Eyelash tinting works best if you bleach them first. Just apply some houshold bleach with a q tip, look up and blink a lot. It might smart a little at first, but that's just the beauty soaking in.

No, that's trashy. Sheesh.
<hint>But a little dab of BreakFree behind each ear will get 'em every time!</hint> :yum:
Hm....let's see...all the men I think are hot are dead....well, most of them...the guy who played the Prince of the City on Kindred: The Embrace....he's pretty... the kind of man you just want to LOOK at...got killed in a harley accident, though. What a waste...Armand Assante...now THAT was a sexy man, and had a voice on him....he died of a stroke, though....Hm....living sexy men...Sir Anthony Hopkins...that voice, that carriage....Nigel Bennet, who plays Lacroix on Forever Knight...he's not cute, but again, he's got the way of carrying himself, and a voice like a warm blanket and hot chocolate.... Tom Cruise is cute, but he's just cute. I like his smile, but I really don't find him "sexy." I guess I just go more for voices and the way a man carries himself...calll me shallow....lol
Perfume....I like vanilla, vanilla musk, Sand and Sable, or Perceive. There's a perfume called Indian Musk that has vanilla, honeysuckle and gardenia in it. It's hard to find a company that doesn't test on animals, though, when looking for vanilla. Coty makes wonderful scents, but they test on animals, so I don't buy from them... *sigh*
Where do I like to shop? Dunno...I'm not really a shopping person. I avoid stores unless I don't have a choice. Generally, if I see clothes I like, I buy them, regardless of where they come from. I'm not overly impressed with labels. I'm more interested in whether I like it, whether it looks good on me, and whether I can afford it. I like raw silk, though, and that isn't easy to find. When you wash raw silk, it gets soft and cuddly like flannel *grins*
Sidhe.
Oh, gotta add Val Kilmer. He's not only a good actor, but he's got that carriage and voice too (think Doc Holliday...he can be MY huckleberry any day...lol...btw, did anyone notice in the movie, when he spins those two revolvers? He spins them in opposite directions. That takes dexterity, and as all women know, dexterity is a GOOD thing in a man...)
Sidhe
Hm...don't wear makeup unless I have to. But I have to say that my mother's advice was the best I've found so far: wear makeup in such a way that it doesn't look like you're wearing makeup. That way it enhances your looks and appears natural...

Do you tint at home?
I was going to have it done at my salon; they do it for $29.99 a visit; but it looks like it would need to be done every 4-6 weeks, ouch!
And, thanks gals, for showing up -- Wolf was making me feel like I was Paris Hilton (not really).

[color=indigo]Keep in mind personality completes the package: My husband. Mel Gibson. Jeff Goldblum. Denzel Washington. George Clooney looks better and better all the time. Scott Bakula. Brad Pitt. Cuba Gooding Jr.[/color]
What beauty tips can you share?
[color=indigo] If you've never had a facial, get one. One day I was getting my nails done, and I saw they did waxing and facials, so I got the whole thing and my best friend said I looked 10 years younger. And the facial massage felt WONDERFUL. I felt so pampered. Inner confidence makes EVERYONE look better.
Oh, and use conditioner mascara when you aren't wearing the black mascara. As a blonde, I know all about how your eyes seem to disappear if you don't have mascara/eyeliner on, but I found that wearing mascara everyday make my lashes brittle and they broke off, leaving bald patches. So I started using eyelash conditioner, which is clear, when I'm not wearing regular mascara, and I've noticed a big difference.[/color]
Where do you like to shop? More !!!
[color=indigo]I like mall shopping. Being a girl of the 80's, the mall was the ONLY place to go, and I still go there when I need something specific. Now, I very rarely window shop. I feel that if you have no money, window shopping is just teasing yourself with alllll the great stuff you can't buy.
Of course, give me $1000 and a wal mart, I will shop my ASS off. Wal Mart and the dollar store. mmmmmm.[/color]
Some folks said that The Last Samari had too much Tom Cruise. That may have been true, but he was still a hunk.
[color=indigo]The last movie I went to the theatre to see..was...um...Pirates of the Caribbean. I saw it on opening night in Vegas, and a couple of the stunt pirates were there. It was cool. I won a t-shirt.[/color]

My skin and hair are light and you can't really see my eyelashes. I was thinking that darkening my eyelashes would look good even without makeup.
[color=indigo] My mom does that, and she gets the tattoo'd eyeliner, too, and lipstick. she gets up, brushes her hair and BLAM! she's good to go. I'd do it, but dannnng....I don't want to deal with the pain of needles in my eyelids...my mom says it hurts like a bitch, but you get used to it. Yeah. I'll draw the shit on everyday, thanks.[/color]
Guys,
A famous identity that i would most definately choose as my number one is probably not a common one for a girl of my age, considering he is old enough to be my father, but my knees go weak for John Travolta (not so much grease years but more the Swordfish/ Basic johnny we are blessed to lay our eyes on today) the way he carries himself, his acting/singing/dancing/family/academic and moral talents just make me lullllll even more. And he is every bit a picture of the perfect looking man that i could ever imagine up. ahhhhhhhhh....
make up,
My style changes weekly, but i agree with the natural look being the utmost essential, too much is TOO MUCH! ive never had a facial onyx, (or a wax....... ouch!) but one day i will. they sound fantastic.
I dont use foundation i use a bronzer instead, i couldnt live without it, i bronze lightly all over my neck, arms face, then use the brush a little heavier over my cheekbones, and add a little more to your lips and cover with clear gloss and your face , cheeks and lips all match!! looks really great, sun kissed and natural.
Sun
;)
[COLOR=indigo]I was really kind of concerned about the wax, but I figured what the hell.
We did the facial, then we went to the waxing room, and she put the warm wax on my upper lip. Then she put this soft piece of fabric on top of the wax, pressed it down, then
RRIIIIIPPPPPPPED
it off. Like a bandaid.
I thought I was gonna die.
But she had done one side, and I'd look stupid with one side done, so she did the other side, which wasn't as bad now that I was ready for it. Then she did my bottom lip and the side. Then she grabbed the tweezers and pulled out the stubborn ones.
The witch hazel felt gooood. She got most the blood to stop.
The day after, when the redness went away, I looked great.
I shave now.
[/COLOR]
BLOOD!! what?!?!! it bled,, oh lord i feel faint.
After you had the wax treatment did you find the hair grew back thicker or thinner?
ive often thought about getting my bikini lines done, instead of shaving them but always chickened out. i cant fathom the thought of getting naked in front of someone i dont know (who isnt a doctor) and asking them to do that... there!! i would just go bright red!!

Yeah, and I've seen plenty of vaginas in my day...they basically all look the same.
not true!
PS....ladies, if we're mucking up your thread, just tell us to get the fuck out!
[COLOR=indigo]OK, let me make this decision easy for you.
Take a pair of tweezers and grab a bit of hair on your "fluffy lips", then rip the hair out.
Multiply that sensation by 100.
That's what waxing feels like.
Epilady is a godsend next to waxing. And Epilady was created by Satan.
Edit: and the hair does grow in thinner and lighter. But I don't know if it's worth the pain.

I dunno, Jim...there are different colors, different hair "patterns" and different smells...but as a whole, they pretty much look the same to me.
Although, maybe you're right...fuck, I took NyQuil an hour ago...

Hey, I like that idea - conditioner mascara. Gotta try that.
[COLOR=indigo]Avon offers some for like...$6.00. I love it and it's cheap and it works.
Also...never use waterproof mascara, because it dries your lashes out. Use regular kind. Your eyeliner isn't waterproof, so you'll look like a racoon if you get wet any way you slice it. Might as well not screw up your llashes in the process.[/COLOR]

i saw a whole show (real sex?) about them once...they had names for them and all....i remember one being called "wolf" and maybe "butterfly"
plus, although, I've never seen one, I have it on good authority that asian ones go side to side!
oh, and i think the word "vagina" is more offensive than "c:censored:".......at least to say out loud.....didn't bother me much to type it, tho
Jimbo, leave the ladies to their thread and come over and join us in the MAN thread!
this a great idea for a thread gwennie, when i moved to the country with my BF for two years, "girlie chat" is something that you go crazy without. the gossip, the advice and general bitching is golden and i didnt realise how precious until i went nutty without it! guys just dont get it.
Most of my shopping is at the mall, why would you go anywhere else? seperate stand alone shops that you actually want to go to are too far and between that its not worth it unless your running in for one particular thing. (and who does that!! : )

Thanks Sun, but I have to admit that I got this idea from another forum site that I've been on for a couple of years. (That place got into some fighting, and I stumbled across this place.)
The same thread idea turns out different with a new group of people and different stories.
Sorry to bust in on the Ladies Only thread, but I did put on a dress before typing this...
I just wanted to point out that Armand Assante is *not* dead, unless he died today...
[COLOR=indigo]He was Private Benjamin's husband, right?[/COLOR]
Yeah, but not the one who died in the beginning...he was the asshole French doctor husband.
[COLOR=indigo]Yeah, yeah. And you brought him up why?
Oh yeah, and I hope your kid didn't see you in the dress. Bad PR.

I dont know what the wonderful world of fashion and footwear is doing over there but here in sydney ppl are going crazy for pointy toed heels!! I personally dont understand it and think they would be the most uncomfortable things ever!! and they cost a mint.
Any other fashion disaters or monstrosities we can talk about girls??
Fashion Clue from Guys to Women #147:
Pointy-toed heels = Fuck Me Shoes.
really!! wow el, i never would have thought that i thought fu(k me shoes are the black knee high boots.
so do you mean these look sexy, or they just make you look desperate.

Guys generally don't look that deep. When he says they say "fuck me", that's all he means. :D
[COLOR=indigo]Ah. I completely missed Sidhe's post. Sorry Sidhe.
I had 5 inch heeled black leather boots that went up to my knee, 7inch clear acrylic platforms, and a pair of ankle boots.
And yes, yes, lawd, they was my "fuck me, fuck me now" shoes. It especially worked because I'm 6'1" and my inseam is 36", so it's all leg, baby.
Course, that means any time I was in them, I was taller than EVERYBODY. But that didn't seem to drive men off. Much.
[/COLOR]
REALLY? Cool! I was told about a year ago that Armand Assante had died of a stroke or something, and I haven't seen him in anything lately, so....That yummy man is still alive...hoodeehoo!!

Does anyone else find that the words "new and improved," when applied to feminine convenience products, means "thinner, less absorbent, and more prone to leaks?"
No. Wolf is a woman. :joylove:

I lack any background in that area, but I was amused recently when I made the weekly haul to the grocery store and Mrs. Dallas asked me to pick up some of these products for her, and I found that one product was labelled both "regular" and "ultra". How can anything be both at the same time? :confused:
just avert your eyes from the shelf, glance furtively up and down the aisle, and stash it behind the beer
[COLOR=indigo]:) Yes, Wolf is a woman. And not some little femmie woman, either. A real woman.. strong, smart, and ARMED.[/COLOR]

Because there are probably Regular Ultra and Ultra Ultra and Super Ultra Ultra and Dries Up the Gulf of Mexico varieties, and you gotta be able to keep 'em straight.

Pointy shoes like Manolo Blahniks? Nice shoes, too expensive. My feet would not survive 5 minutes in those things, but they ARE fierce looking.
Can't say that I have a fashion pet peeve because most "fashionable" things I can't wear anyway...they seem to only be made for the thin woman, which I am not, and haven't been since I was 8! Heh, I guess that IS my pet peeve about fashion...:p

Argh, I'm in agony! I would

Haha! The dude from Creed...hell yes. And the guy from Incubus too. *cheesy grin*. The Rock...indeed. Patrick Stewart...never will there be a better Professor Charles Xavier (X-Men). Connery kinda scares me now, but years ago, oh hell yes.
[COLOR=indigo]Well, yeah, ok, now he IS getting a little scary...but the voice...ok, how about ewan macgregor's head, the rocks body and sean connery's voice?!
Ohh.... girls, post your perfect man!!!
The Rock's long black hair (with the braids)
Mel Gibson eyes...
Val Kilmer smile....
The Rock's body. Not too big, but nicely muscled.
Sean Connery's voice.

Has anyone mentioned Andy Garcia?
Ladies love the Courvoisier. Yeah.
Two words - Orlando Bloom.
God I love elves.
Other than that - can't contribute much to this topic. I am so not the typical female. I don't wear makeup. I tend to lust after either 1) Computer geek-types 2) Fantasy guys (Elves, Dragon Slayers, Knights) or 3) the Bad boys that I know are bad.
I don't really shop - actually I hate shopping. Get in, Get out, Get going without killing someone.

Your last comment still has me giggling.
I've been thinking about this. Eye lash tinting is attractive to me because it is long lasting, but without the pain. And, my blonde eyelashes disappear, as you say.
In a male-dominated field, I learned I fit in better at work without the makeup. If you are more like the rest of the engineers, you get more respect. When I was visibly pregnant, I was almost invisible at meetings. So, I like the flexibility of "drawing it on" when I want it.

Well, I was studying to be a girl. I had some great female coaches on these subjects. It's not as easy as you might think. And, it ususally doesn't seem creepy to gals. It's not as dishonest as you make it out to be, after all I did go into work dressed as one of my girlfriends.
I guess this proves that I'm not a thread killer after all. Thank you, LumberJim for reviving my thread.....
Lately, I've been thinking I should get my eyebrows waxed. I don't want them thin and wispy, that just looks fake. But, I just want them flattened a little bit, porcelain doll style.
:ivy:
It's just a little creepy.
wolf is a girl??!
?????????????????????
i think it is fine if you arent being dishonest, and if you are chatting about things that you do feel, have experienced, do know about..as a man or a woman doesnt really make a difference, but flat out lying i believe to be wrong. Eg. "when i was pregnant" . we have enough of that online.

When I don't have direct experience I quote women, (eg, my wife about being invisible at work). Also, in my "I'm Pregnant" thread, it was all in character, and all the text of my message was a direct quote from Gwen Stefani from various sources.
Just a few days ago, Bri recalled my advice to her about possibly going into jail. While in there I really did wear an orange jump suit, but Gwen looked much better in it in the pic I posted.
long time reader, first time poster - haha - I want in on the hot guys -- have you "met" the new Polo Black model? I have the rest of his life planned for him. And he doesn't even know it. . .
MurMetz, welcome, cool handle.
Now. We need a pic of this guy. Can you do?
[COLOR=indigo]:) Yes, Wolf is a woman. And not some little femmie woman, either. A real woman.. strong, smart, and ARMED.[/COLOR]
They're the best kind. *My* Gwennie has a bumper sticker that says "You can't beat a woman who shoots".
I dunno about BreakFree vs. Hoppes.... we've got some nifty spray stuff (my) Gwennie got at the range which not only cleans the guns well and keeps them clean but smells kinda nice too. I forget what it's called.
Gonna make Wolf come to a Pink Pistols shoot one of these third Saturdays...
Hey Wolf! Gwennie just bought a used Kimber, got a very good price on it. You'd think that S&W .357 would be good enough, but nooooooo...
Polo Black looks a little plasticky (I know its not a real word) but oh so doable. rawrrrr!
yes, "doable" is one of my MANY plans for him. I found him (??) in a Sports Illustrated, and contrary to rumors swirling in my office, I did NOT lick the magazine. . .

Gee...kinda funny seeing sombody point to polo.com...until Christmas Eve I worked at the place that runs that site. :-)
long time reader, first time poster - haha - I want in on the hot guys -- have you "met" the new Polo Black model? I have the rest of his life planned for him. And he doesn't even know it. . .
My gay ambulance boi tells me that he saw him first ...
(the boi has also promised to wear the Polo Black on Monday night. I will advise. Polo Purple was good enough that it has caused me to bemoan the fact that the boi is gay.)
It's just a little creepy.
It's still good, it's still good!
(only Simpsons fans will understand the meaning here)
the flying barbeque pig? Where Lisa ruins the pig due to her vegetarian leanings? That one?
Polo man too pretty for me. Can't provide a link at the mo because of the connection I'm on. but try googling Al Murray Pub Landlord. Now he makes me lick the screen :yum:
Although I admit it's probably more to do with him being a talented comedian than a hunk...
Ok, while I can see the lure of a smart, funny man, neither Polo dude nor the Pub Landlord make my spidey senses tingle.
Who is cute? Who, indeed...
I've always had a thing for Paul Simon, but, he's really too short. Stephen Colbert is absolutely adorable, but, I can't picture him in a romantic situation.
Must think upon it.
Somethin' to be said about a guy w/ a sense of humor... But I'll stick w/ Polo J. Black. :)
I just watched the first season of "Little Britain," and I can't get
Emily Howard out of my head when looking at this thread...
[size=1](and no, I feel no need to see season two)[/size]
Oh come on HM. Give it a chance. There is very little that's as simultaneously cringe-inducing and hilarious as Daffyd, the Only Gay in the Village.
I did give it a chance, and I enjoyed it, but I think that if you've seen one Daffyd sketch, you've seen them all...
My secret desire you ask (or maybe not) Gary Levox of Rascal Flatt(the lead singer). Oh the sins we would committ. He's just got the right amount of pudge. Ummm pudge........
Neither am I bothered by a bit of pudge. I sort of like it, too.
Wonder why that is? When i see a guy like the Black Polo dude, or an Adonis Boy complete with six pack, I get panicky. Will he ever let me into the bathroom? Will he forever be looking at himself in the mirror? Will he use more hair gel in one application than I ever did in my entire life? Will he expect me to be as obsessed with the superficial as he? All these things cross my mind and by then, I'm turned off.
Amen, Brianna!
I know the feeling, that oh god I have to always look good or people will give me that "how the hell did you mangage to get him, must have looked better in your younger years" look. I like my men with just the right amount of pudge to them, not dunlap victims, but pleasanlty plumped. :doit:
edited because I apparently can't spill ;)
:) What REALLY matters? A quick wit. A ready laugh will forgive most anything, even the pudge! :)

Yea, I'm glad you said that. I trust neither gender when they are too perfect. But, once I got a panicky feeling. I had a crazy job at a stupid startup in the city (SF) at the peak of internet silliness 1999. A beautiful 28 yo girl at work starting "chasing" me. One evening at a party, she gently grabbed my arm as if we were together. Right away I felt like a sack of potatoes next to her. I thought people would think I scored a Tropy Wife with my stock option money.
Later she made a poorly disguised attempt to get me home. She said her ride left early and could she get a ride from me (as I saw her ride walk out the front door). I said sure, and volunteered to give a ride to one of the guys. We dropped her off first. She didn't speak with me at work the next day. I soon quit that job and that chapter was over.
more my style
In no particular order ...
Steve McQueen
Paul Newman
Harvey Keitel (especially in The Piano :yum: )
For clothes, I shop on the internet and at the local charity shop.
I did the make-up thing for seven years when I was "something in the city" because I read that women that wear make-up get paid more and promoted faster. It worked - in seven years my salary increased by 130% and I managed to get a stonking (= really good) redundancy deal, too! So now I don't have to wear make-up any more ;)
So now I don't have to wear make-up any more ;)
Now you can do it just for fun, special events. To be showy sometimes.
ah, limey! You're living the life! I wish I lived on an island off the south-west coast of Scotland and I wish I lived in your adorable house! Complete with red front door, if i'm not mistaken. i imagine you puttering about in your garden, enjoying peat fires and wearing the best wool sweaters! Am I far off wrong? :)
oh, yeah, I forgot to say to monster:
um. You apparently like the Lord of Darkness. Did you know that? Or, did you think that was Al? Cause I'm pretty sure that's Lucifer. The Dark Angel. Beelzebub. The Morning Star. Satan. The Dark Prince. The Father of Lies. Little Nicky. The Great Serpent. The Deceiver. The, you know, DEVIL!
Comprende?
Black front door. Crap at gardening. Still waiting for Norrie to build the fireplace. Knit the sweaters.
The sunset as I drove home from work this evening was fantastic - so amazing I had to drive at 20mph in order to keep looking at it and not drive off the road. Fortunately I only met the bus and Clarkie going home from his work, as usual, in the 14 mile journey ... wearing all that slap was worth it!

Not at all! :) I hear he's a great lay!

Sorry to hear about your head. One comedian playing off other people for cheap laughs can do a lot of memetic damage.
But some transgendered women are headed in a somewhat different direction:

Most of them don't end up on televison though. Except during sweeps.
Joan Roughharden may have been... I think I may have heard of that book on some news show. Maybe not TV, though.
It's nothing to do with TG in general, just the specific case of a guy pretending to be a girl saying "I'm a lady, let's talk about ladies' things!" The eagerness and phrasing was similar.
