I haven't tried the Bliss wax strips, but I have used the Sally Hansen ones and they worked well. Looking at the description of the Bliss strips, I don't see much difference between the two, and the Sally Hansen strips are like $5.
I just ordered some MUFE translucent powder, a Tarte lash set (primer and mascara), a Sephora eye-depuffing mask, and a NARS nail polish in Trouville, a pretty pale pink that will be nice for spring.
What are you in the mood to try? Everyone seems to like those Tarte clay blushes. The UD Naked nail palette is nice too, although it's all neutrals and I'm already looking forward to spring colors (hence the NARS polish).
I haven't used the Bliss wax strips, but I do use the Sally Hansen ones that dexteroni mentioned and I really like them. I cut them up into smaller pieces and a box lasts forever.

cjeanette, tell me more about these wax strips. Are they eyebrow shaped? I'm not sure if I'd be able to get the shaping right, but I sure would be happy to have the $144/year I spend getting my brows waxed back.
awkwardpenguin - not CJ but I have used them. They're not eyebrow shaped, they're rectangular, and you cut them with scissors to fit the shape of your brows. But it's easy; you cut it to a shape, hold it up to your brow before you peel it to check the shape, trim more if need be, then peel and apply. The good part is since there's wax on both sides of the strip, your brow strips will always be symmetrical.

Thank you! That sounds awesome, especially the always symmetrical part.
