    Looking for old fashioned make-up glasses

    Anyone have an idea where I might find a decent quality make-up eyeglass that will hold prescription lenses? I'm looking for the one where each lens flips downs independently.

    We've also found that a good quality nail polish will stay forever in a poly or plastic groove. The colors are endless and it's much cheaper than "groove" paint.
