OK Flist, your opinions are needed for the following questions XD

1: My roomie and I want to go to Sephora soonish. What would anyone recommend we look at for SURE? In particular, I want a nice red lippy, and some black eyeshadow would not go amiss (since mine has mysteriously vanished in the move)

2: Any lolis here who've ordered WINTER COATS from Fanplusfriend, how do they stand up to winter? My winters average around -20C to -40C for a good four months at a time, so I'd like something that's not going to leave me looking like a frozen cupcake on a stick XD

In other news, we went to Value Village yesterday and I got some pants that will work wonderfully with my Babylon 5 uniform that I haven't worn in 11 years (yes, you read that right; I made it when I was 16), and a cute pair of boots with real rabbit fur on top of them for $7. O YEA.

I've got a cashmere coat from F+F, and the coldest I've worn it in is maybe -10 or 12C, in high winds. If you wear your thermals (and in winter weather like that, I'd expect you to :P!) and aren't just standing around doing nothing, it's fairly warm. There's a biiiig difference between -10 and -40 though. We sometimes get really low temperatures here at night, but it's really exceptional.

I don't expect I'll be going outside much at all if it's -40 (which is rather unusual around here, but it happens), but the rest of it sounds about what I'd expect from any wool coat. Thanks :D
