I am wearing Bel-Argus and love it. I have bubbles though, which happens to me with some nail polishes. I'm going to try all the blue eye products I bought soon.

shontay - I bought Ardell lashes 108 and I love how comfortable and natural it is. I wore them for 7 hours without pulling them out!

If you always end up with bubbles, you may want to roll the bottle instead of shaking it prior to application :)

Any word on whether they will make the eyeshadows permanent? Because I want to wear Moon River every single day since I bought it, and I think I need a back-up!
I'm just curious - is that my lipstick photo you are using for your avatar? Did you get it here?

A Nordstrom SA called me about a B2G1 mascara event. I'm assuming its a pre-order since I didn't see anything on line. I love the Chanel Le Volume so I'm definitely getting one of those but I'm thinking I should get one of the colored mascaras. I already have Lime Light. Should I get Blue Note or the Aqua one? Or should I just try the Blue Le Volume? I already have the Prune Le Volume. I wish the Bronze Le Volume was out. That one won't be out any time soon, right?

After going back to the counter and looking at everything again, I decided nothing was that great for me to purchase. The shadow sticks are okay but I know due to the formula I would have problems and I don't like doing too much work when applying my make-up. The nail polish was a bit too metallic and it looked streaky so I didn't get it. Luckily I had a few favs that I needed to re-purchase that enabled me to qualify to get the red Chanel pouch.

The B2G1 mascara event is exclusive to Nordies and no you don't have to pre-order.

Well ladies...Haven & April....I'm waiting to hear what you think of the quad! Did I miss it?
I am happy to say that I really like the quad.

I initially tried the shadows wet, and I was worried. They were metallic "in your face" bright. Something that I would have worn when I was younger but not really my style now. I probably can get them to work wet, but I need to experiment more. Then I tried them dry and really liked the look. I can't wear all 4 at once, but I can add a couple of the colors to an otherwise nude eye look and get great results. A soft teal/jade look. So my vote on the quad is

.

Also I should add that I have only worn the shadows with a base, and I still prefer the non-baked Chanel quads. For a baked quad, however, this quad is not bad.

Thanks for sharing. I'll use this as an opportunity to get 2 colored mascaras. I still have my marching orders from Shontay to get them.

I got a 25% off coupon valid for all mascaras at Douglas. I guess that's a sign I should get at least one of the coloured Chanel mascaras

I also have a 20% off coupon on all cosmetics valid in another parfumery, so I'm pretty sure I'll get Azure with that one and maybe something else too, but not sure what yet.

Elegant, I agree with Haven. I really like the quad. I find it can be quite versatile. I have worn it dry for a soft, work appropriate look. I can't wait to see how it performs wet. I like using it with the jade shadow stick. I want to try it with a SmashBox cream shadow I have called Neptune (it reminds me of Azure polish in a cream shadow format).

I sweep the shadow stick on my entire lid and I blend lightly at the crease. Then, I put a powder shadow through the crease. I always wear the shadow stick alone. It really looks good once you complete your look. That's my experience with Jade Shore anyway. I do prefer the illusion d'ombre's though. Also, how hilarious that I bought Jade Shore and then scooped up the new MUFE aqua eyes that's so similar that having both isn't entirely necessary. By hilarious I mean tragic.

good to know b/c I dn't like jade shores...

I wore Blue Bay shadow stick and I like the effect. It is shimmering blue and sheer if I blend it immediately, but if I want the colour to be more intense and I apply it without blending. It goes on smooth and doesn't tug on my skin. I haven't wore True Blue mascara, and I still want to get Limelight and Zest. I bought the purple and blue Bourgois Holidays mascara lol.
