Hello, fellow BPJs!
Some of you may have seen my earlier post asking for advice about this new vitamin C serum that was being offered by Mario Badescu (http://teamsugar.com/group/88093/blog/2565570).
I ended up ordering it, and have been using it for a little over a week.

:star: So I've been on the hunt for some secrets to Marilyn's make-up application. She knew just how to accentuate certain features that all women should know about. These tips are so secretive that even Marilyn herself wouldn't tell them to her make-up artist Eve Arnold!
