Whenever you want!

As long as you don't use acids (BHA or AHA) at the exact same time, the niacinamide in Super Serum shouldn't react with the acids and turn your face red or make you flush. At night, I wait 20-30 minutes for the acids to self-neutralize on my skin and then apply Super Serum without any adverse reacti...

Search function can't handle apostrophes.

It appears that the search function can't make use of apostrophes. Searching for "teacher," "pet," or "teacher pet" results in Teacher's Pet, but searching for "teacher's pet" is futile.

Lauroyl Lysine

Amino acid derivative that functions as a skin- and hair-conditioning agent. It also contributes to a product’s texture by helping to gel solvents, while also remaining stable under high heat conditions (Source: Organic and Molecular Biochemistry , November 2003, pages 4124–4131). Lauroyl lysine is...

skintone color analysis

Please excuse the partial hijacking of the thread, but superwahz has inspired me to share the links that taught me about color analysis of skintones: warm vs. cool, clear vs. muted, high-contrast vs. low-contrast. (I didn't author any of the linked URLs.) http://makeupalley.com/user/notepad/GeekChic...

products in twist-up tubes and sticks

Would love to see some of the firmer cream based things in slimtubes (concealers, colored cream liners because it'd make a great cream shadow stick) and some products with argan oil I fully support having products in twist-up tubes and sticks, especially concealers. In general, I dislike wand-in-tu...

serum that inhibits melanin production

You can't go wrong with a Holiday red lip, either. Maybe a version of Crimson with a cinnamon scent? (or other holiday-ish scent) Oh yes, I would also welcome LE flavored colored lippies. Peppermint flavor is my top choice. Wintergreen, spearmint, and other mints are ok as well. What I want more th...

lippie with tiny rainbow sparkles

How would you like it to differ from the Smooth and Full Black Label Lip Treatment? Just curious!

Ooh, how about a lippie with tiny rainbow sparkles like in eyeshadows? It could be a topper meant for layering. (Yeah, I'm obsessed with lippies. :D)

half-&-half lippies

What about half-&-half lippies? One color/formula/flavor would be poured into the tube first so that it fills up half the tube and then the remaining space would be topped off with another color/formula/flavor. This concept could be applied to colored lippies, lip balms, or lip treatments. Admit...

lippies inspired by Lipstick Queen

Yup, it sounds like a re-issue of Peach Melba would be welcome. I'll always say yes to any lippies that deliver a juicy, jelly-like, translucent wash of color. I've been steadily collecting all of SN's sheers, which have eliminated my desires for Lipstick Queen's Chinatown Glossy Pencils ( swatches ...
