He smells a little doggy up close, but it's never been bad enough for us to wash him. During the summer we might hose him off, but never shampoo.Kirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04516685367712385953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6090349809306615395.post-54475467694013263732011-02-12T20:03:37.108-06:002011-02-12T20:03:37.108-06:00How do you no 'poo a dog?

I think we're kind of superstitious because it seems like our Husky never rolled in gross stuff aside from directly after her baths. Huskies and Shibas both have super thick, fluffy, double coats, and I know shorter haired dogs get muskier faster. I don't have any good recommendations for brands, unfortunately, but I remain in favor of a largely No 'Poo mindset, for dogs, too. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. <br /><br />Superglue - I've never used the Aura Glow, but I used their Rosewater Spray for years and LOVED it. I used the one that was a mild moisturizer, which was SO nice during the sweaty, hot summers. The Aura Glow looks right up my alley!<br /><br />Baby Friday - I use Bare Minerals, too, and so far I really like it. I don't usually wear foundation but for times when I want it, that stuff it really nice. I also Macgyver my concealer by patting on some concealer stuff from Benefit (maybe Erase Paste? It came in a little sample pack and isn't labeled) and then putting the Bare Minerals over it and it's the best concealer I've ever tried. (I don't actually know how to do foundation or concealer correctly, so Bare Minerals is perfect for me. Nice and forgiving!) I also really like their Mineral Veil that's moisturizing. Have you used their lip glosses or anything? I prefer a more lipstick/balm consistency, but their glosses are pretty great. <br /><br />Gobblegirl - I have High Impact, too, and I like it a lot! I prefer a sluttier lash, and that is a little too tasteful for me, but I use it for adult occasions when looking like a showgirl isn't appropriate. I've never tried that tubes stuff, but I won a free bottle of the Blinc brand in a Lucky contest (yay?) so I should probably try it out. What if it's the mascara that unlocks all the secrets of the universe for me??? Especially since I get junkie runaway eyes, this might be a good option for me!Kirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04516685367712385953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6090349809306615395.post-66509653285776266362011-02-11T22:55:23.087-06:002011-02-11T22:55:23.087-06:00My mascara recommendations:

It doesn't clump or add bulk to your lashes; it just lengthens and darkens them for a really classy look.<br /><br />Normal: I use L'Oreal Beauty Tubes. This stuff is fantastic! It goes on in two coats - a white primer, then the black mascara. It doesn't smudge, because it's not soluble in oil at all. Instead, it comes off with just water...and it comes off in tubes. No more racoon eyes, ever! It can look a teeeensy bit clumpy compared to the higher-end stuff, but if you're careful putting it on you'd never notice a difference. Until you take it off in 10 seconds flat, that is!gobblegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07811702726919262301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6090349809306615395.post-34053788199451527242011-02-11T15:22:01.595-06:002011-02-11T15:22:01.595-06:00I have to use Cetaphil soap because of sensitive s...I have to use Cetaphil soap because of sensitive skin, but now that I've tried it I'd probably use it all the time anyway. It's awesome. Unfortunately, because of my peasant-stock ruddy cheeks and exceptionally pale skin, I have to wear foundation every day, but I recently started using Bare Minerals, and it's been wonderful. No more breakouts! As far as lotion I love anything with lactic acid--it exfoliates as it moisturizes (or so I've been told), which is good for super dry/sensitive skin.Baby Fridayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04545940195404339138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6090349809306615395.post-55541685968964803852011-02-11T14:57:40.043-06:002011-02-11T14:57:40.043-06:00I've got a couple of faves that both the man a...I've got a couple of faves that both the man and I enjoy and use religiously:<br /><br />Heritage Aura Glow: http://heritagestore.com/categories-1/aura-glow.html This stuff is INSANE. It's basically massage oil, but I use it for everyday moisturizing in the winter. You just slather it on freshly shaven legs straight after a shower and it is so wonderful. I use the rose scent because that shit is bangin' but they make it in like a trillion different scents. This might not be as widely available on the west coast because it's made in VA Beach, but I get it at Whole Foods and my local coop in NC.<br /><br />Dr. Bronner's Magic Soap: http://www.drbronner.com/ It's more than just an insane label! This is probably the only product I replace religiously because I use it for EVERYTHING. I even use it to replace toothpaste when I'm super desperate. It makes an awesome laundry detergent. It also comes in all sorts of scents. I can't use it on my face because it dries it out, but everywhere else it's awesome.<br /><br />Lubriderm lotion with SPF: http://www.lubriderm.com/page.jhtml?id=/lubriderm/products/prd_dm_spf_lotion.inc This is my summertime lotion standby. It's got SPF 15, which isn't enough if you're ghostly like I am and are going to be out in the sun, but it's perfect for avoiding incidental left-arm driving sunburns. Also, no man is ashamed to buy it.Supergluenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6090349809306615395.post-34734261708928983122011-02-11T14:52:43.368-06:002011-02-11T14:52:43.368-06:00What products do you use on your dog?

I've always wished it...Now, regarding Benetint. I've always wished it came in a balm-like consistency. I don't like the thin stuff. I used to use the Benetint lip color that came in the little pot but I hate those "stick your filthy fingers in this pot" containers and I kept hoping it would just come in a colored chap stick thingie because I really did LOVE the color. I am newish to the world of cheek color, because I'm naturally pretty rosy-cheeked, but I could see how a stain might be good since it sticks, as opposed to a balm which would fade fast, or a powder, which looks to dry. INTERESTING. Maybe I should get a little bottle to re-try.<br /><br />I am VERY interested in this Moisturizing Topcoat. I don't want to scoop myself, but I'm really into long-lasting lip stains, but they can be so drying and my lips tend to be pretty dry already. So this non-drying, NON-OILY-so-it-won't-make-my-stain-come-off sounds basically perfect.<br /><br />I am really into Cover Girl Last Blast right now. It goes on nicely feathery and not too clumpy, but layers well for over-the-top crazy, if that's what you like. <br /><br />Everyone in the world swears by Diorshow, and I like it, too, but even the waterproof formula smears under my eyes within a couple of hours and it drives me crazy. No one else complains about it, so maybe I have mutant eye hollows or something. During the summer I basically only wear Diorshow in electric blue, and pinkie lip stuff. For some reason when the blue inevitably smudges, it looks less sloppy and more whimsical.<br /><br />And, I always have some tried and true Great Lash, just in case. It's like my Cetaphil - always there, maybe not the star, but my favorite supporting player. It goes on nice and thin, so it layers with more subtlety that other ones.Kirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04516685367712385953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6090349809306615395.post-88047120346602454912011-02-11T14:08:28.256-06:002011-02-11T14:08:28.256-06:00Can I add two favs?

It's a red-pink liquid that comes packaged like nail polish, right down to the little brush. I rub it on my cheeks and they get that perfect flushed-but-not-trying-too-hard look. I don't wear foundation, and I'd imagine it wouldn't look the same rubbed over that. BUT! I love it.<br /><br />Also. CoverGirl Outlast Moisturizing Topcoat. It's not topcoat in the nail polish sense. It's a clear lip gloss that is sold with their Outlast lipsticks but also is sold separately. It makes lips comfy like chapstick but also a little glowy. It's thin and not sticky. God, I hate sticky lip goop. It's also not made from anything oil-based, so you can use it over lip stains and other lipsticks and it doesn't take it right off.<br /><br />I basically wear the Benetint, Topcoat clear lipstick, and mascara and call it a day. I'm always on the hunt for a new mascara to try. Any suggestions?shellbomberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00680446295463992280noreply@blogger.com
