What is up with Infomercials?

Why are they so addicting? I am embarrassed to say that I really like them (except those rotisserie ones). Of course, anything with ShamWow Vince is an instant hit for me, and lately I have been sucked into those P90x ads. The "after" pics are pretty hot. Another one that I have seen a million times is Sheer Cover mineral makeup.Have any of y'all ever tried it? I would like to look like an airbrushed mannequin the way Leeza Gibbons does, but of course, I can't order it without consulting all of my cyber-buddies.

Thanks for my get well wishes!

I'm sure this will not surprise you since my name is Impulsive Addict, but I've bought more infomercial shiz than I know what to do with! I finally got DVR and I was instantly cured from that impulsiveness. It almost caused a divorce! Good luck with your temptations! Let us know what you buy!

I find myself watching infomercials and then my hubby walks in, and I switch the channel, ha.

I love them too! I just wait for them to arrive in stored so I don't buy it all on TV. Never tried this but the reason Leeza looks so good is plastic surgery, not makeup, dear! Trust me, I KNOW!

just like 5 minutes ago I was at the Bare Minerals website.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!

the only thing is, I actually have friends who wear this- and I love the way it looks.

and the infomercials just DON'T.HELP. with my temptation to buy it ALL.

I'm sorry I have not left many comments lately- life has just hit me in the face. shheeeesh. I hope you're doing well, and I plan on catching up with your blog tonight.

Love,

Candy

If it is anything like Bare Minerals, You would love it. I wear B.M. and it really does make your skin smooth and flawless. I have been seeing this mineral makeup popping up in drug stores lately. I would try Max Factor or any of those first, it is a lot cheaper!

haha--i LOVE watching infomercials, too! i almost never buy, but i have actually tried bare minerals. they're ok. i really liked the cream concealer they came with and i still use all the brushes, but i wouldn't reorder. that's my 2 cents:)

I was going to order Bare Minerals, but a friend told me she loves her Mary Kay mineral foundation, so I gave it a try. I love it! It's also cheaper than Bare Minerals. I tried several drug store brands like neutrogena and Physicans Formula, but I didn't like them at all!

Sham WoW is my current favorite infomercial!

I have tried this but don't like it as much as Bare Minerals!

Southern Belle said...

I heart Bare Minerals. I wore liquid foundation for a long time and will NEVER go back to that. I've never tried Sheer Cover though.

Try the Mary Kay mineral foundation if you're wanting to try minerals. It's awesome! Mary Kay also has mineral eye and cheek colors.
