Over the past few weeks I've received some incredibly sweet messages from readers who don't often comment (or have never commented) on this blog and, as a blogger, I cannot express to you how wonderful it feels to hear from lurkers! Do NOT get me wrong--it's wonderful to hear from each and every one of you and I adore my regular readers/commenters more than you can possibly know. But when someone who never, ever comments on blogs takes the time to comment, it's like a smile from a stranger--unexpected and delightful!
So I thought I'd take a moment to talk to you, the lurkers out there, and ask that you leave a comment here and make your presence known! Feel free to share what posts you've read recently, if you've enjoyed what you've been reading here, if you've made any good (or bad) drugstore beauty purchases lately and, most importantly, just let us know you're HERE!
As the image above states so beautifully--I know you're not shy, you're just holding back your awesomeness!

Thanks so much for the very sweet comment! I'm sorry to hear the Mad Gabs didn't work for you (I know everyone's different and a lot of us have different requirements for lip balm) but I am very happy to hear that the L'Oreal and Maybelline shadows DID work for you.

AND, thanks for even going back and reading my older reviews. I'm so honored! :)
You lured out the lurkers! haha. I'm definitely one of them. I read this blog almost every day and I love it... I just don't have anything to say most of the time! But I definitely appreciate the info!
Sounds a lot like me. I'm from Australia. I always check your site on whats the latest products by Maybelline, Loreal, Revlon etc out to hit the shelves. Then begins the wait for it to be released in Australia. I'm still waiting for the Revlon Lip Butters to arrive. Can you believe that all the other countries have got it out, except for Australia? Outrageous. I hate how australia is always the last to get new stuff. The cosmetics market is quite big down here. Honestly your blog is the best blog on whats the latest in drugstore cosmetics.
Oops! I forgot to post last time but wanted to! I think I've commented once or twice but am generally a lurker-- thanks so much for doing all you do! I have been blogging for nearly 3 years now as well and I know how much times goes into it all, I can't IMAGINE how much time you must invest into Nouveau Cheap! But it has been a great source of info for me since I started reading and I just love it!
Taryn=lurker LOL LOVE this blog! It is bookmarked and I check it daily for all the latest drugstore goodies mixed with wit - thanks for creating such a fabulous blog to read :)SD is so nice - Seattle is just reathing with jealously most times ;)
Hi G, I am unintentionally a lurker. I have this blog bookmarked on my Android phone and I check it daily. I have tried many products based on your reviews. Most recently I spent an embarrassingly large sum on money on Milani clearance items. I love that you focus on drugstore and less-expensive items, allowing me to get poor bang for my buck. I have learned how to use coupons/ sales to my advantage from you. I now scoff at BOGO1/2 wheras before I thought that was a deal! Since I usually check your page through my cell, I overlook commenting but I will make more of an effort from now on! Thank you for keeping us all up to date.
Your site was recommended by Michele1218 on youtube. So I started lurking a few months ago and I'm obssessed with your blog. I needed new quality makeup brushes and you saved me tons of money by telling us all about the BOGO free sale for ecotools. Thank you so much. I really appreciate all of your time and effort. I don't comment much because the touch screen keyboard on my iphone annoys the hell out of me! And I check your blog everyday on my iphone. Xoxo Evelyn
Hi. My name is Sandra and I am a lurker. I've fallen in love with the wet and wild line, thanks to you. I've also accumulated a mass amount of incredible drugstore makeup.
Recently I bought a couple of Covergirl eye enhancer eye shadow quads in fairytale and sugar coated. They were B1G1 50% off and I had a $3 off 2 Covergirl products. It came out to be $6 for the 2 quads, so how could I pass it up?
Now I have no idea what to do with them. I tried the fairytale and it is not as sheer as people complained it was. When applied the sponge applicator, it was quite pigmented and stayed put all day.
Can you help me with a look from either of these quads? Thanks!
