Re: Guess that lippie ? The Kim K edition =P
Speaking of Angel Cream l/g, someone on Ebay is paying $27.00 (last I looked) plus shipping???????
Just go order it from the MAC site or a store for crying out loud. Someone please tell me why people do this. If it were disc. that may be one thing, but its readily available for waaay cheaper.

Hope this helps you ladies out! 
I tried to get blue noir before and it's been discontinued. They said Contrast e/s was the closest to it.

Re: Guess that lippie ? The Kim K edition =P
they actually had angel l/s at macys and tried it on...looked really good but when i look in a mirror from far away...def. does not look like *exactly* the same color as on kim...well i do KNOW that all lip colors look diff. on every person b/c of everyone's diff. pigmentation on their lips..my top lip is slight darker than my bottom so my lip color never seems to be exactly the same color =( i did buy the lipstick though b/c it did look really nice =)

Check out the CCOs. I got a back-up Friday, Jan 18,2008. And, yes, contrast is a close color to it.

Re: Guess that lippie ? The Kim K edition =P
I actually had to use google to find out who she was, heh. She does seem to know how to choose the right make-up for herself but I know it wont look like that on me.
But I agree about satin taupe being a great color

Re: Guess that lippie ? The Kim K edition =P
I hate satin taupe on me. I think it is a combination of being light skinned and my eye shape.

Going a bit OT here, but anyways... MAC just isn't sold everywhere. For instance, we in Finland only got ourselves a MAC counter less than a year ago. And mind you, there's still just one counter in the entire country. In addition, the MAC website is of no use, since they don't deliver to Europe. So, for the majority of us, that pretty much leaves just Ebay.

Have you tried the UK site, I'm not sure but there's a greater chance they ship to Europe.

Re: Can someone break down these Kim Kardashian looks?>>
i found this on a random site:
"Looking at Kim on the red carpet, one would instantly notice her kohl-rimmed dark brown eyes and olive skin. She also has great, natural eyebrows. She doesn’t sport the overly-plucked L.A. brow. But Kim’s lips are really the feature she pays attention to.
“In my make up bag, I always have MAC blush in ‘Pink Swoon,’ along with their travel size blush brush. A MAC lip liner in ‘Stripdown,’ with MAC lipstick in ‘Angel.’ And Nars lip gloss in ‘Turkish Delight.’”
Her blush, lip liner, lipstick, and lip gloss are all in the soft pink range. Nothing strong or too bright for her lips.
MAC Blush- Pink Swoon– Clearly Pink (Sheer tone Powder)
MAC Lip Liner- Stripdown-Naked Nutmeg (Pencil)
MAC Lipstick- Angel- Soft Pink (Frost)
Nars Lip Gloss- Turkish Delight- Pink Sorbet
As far as the one beauty item she could never live without, that’s the Nars lip gloss in ‘Turkish Delight.’ Kim isn’t alone in her praise of Nars. Many women call it the best lip gloss around, although not at the cheapest price, either. And it comes in a luscious array of shades. The ‘Turkish Delight,’ is described as pink sorbet, or better yet, a strawberry milkshake. The color is that pretty and soft."
the website is:
The Indian Make-up Diva: Not Technically Bollywood, but Great Make-up for Fair Skinned Desi Ladies
i love her looks too. im def gonna check out that blush!

Re: Can someone break down these Kim Kardashian looks?>>
the 2nd pic looks like:
espresso (crease)
mulch (lid)
ricepaper (inner corners + brow bone)
and then it looks like her usual combo of pink swoon/stripdown/angel/turkish delight

Re: Can someone break down these Kim Kardashian looks?>>
That first look looks like A combo of Retrospeck and Humid. Retrospeck all over the lid and Humid in the crease and along the lower lashline. Her lips...well, I have used Half N Half with Jellybabe Lipgelee over it and gotten a similar look.

Re: Can someone break down these Kim Kardashian looks?>>
Here is a closer pic of the 2nd look.
Hmmm....It reminds me of Hipnotique (LE/DC), French Grey (LE/DC), and Carbon. Pretty look. I think I will try that.

Mmmm OK then...I stand corrected. Just trying to minimize the same threads burping up on the same subjects, even if they are older. Keeps the forum free for others to post new Rec requests!  Thanks for understandin'!

What is Kim Kardashian wearing?? (again!)
The lovely Miss Kardashian seems to be all over Specktra lately! I saw these pics of her and I ADORE the color she has on her lower lashline. Can anyone help?
It's such a pretty color, almost the same color as her dress! For the life of me I can't think of something similar...
Any ideas would be much appreciated!
