So sorry about this snow chaos... I was in carinthia (a part of Austria :haha: ) this and last week. We went snowboarding/skiing to another town one day and the roads we had to take to get there were covered in ice. This place where we were staying is between two "provinces" and I guess none of them wants to take care of the roads. They're always in such a bad condition. We didn't expect the road to be that icy so we left the road by accident. We drove into a small (my dict.cc says it's also called "graben" in english) graben. It was my first small accident and it was the first time I ever lost control of my car. I was so shocked. I am so glad no one got hurt, not even my car has a scratch. A few meters on the left there was a cliff and a river below and a few meters in front of us there were big, big rocks - like on every mountain road. It could have ended much worse.  Please drive safely! 
Omg! I'm glad nobody was hurt! Ice is no joke!

While I'm at it, anyone try this Estee Lauder Double Wear Maximum Coverage Foundation? Sephora had it in the what's new section, but youtube reviews tell me it's been out for a few months at least. I'm not overly familiar w/ Estee Lauder. I tried one version of DW, but it was a pretty sheer one & I returned it. I don't know what color I'd be in this (it's already limited) and most of the reviews are of really pale people and two people who are the darkest shade. I'm pretty sure I'm in the middle somewhere & I'm fascinated by the idea of finding a good full coverage foundation.

Hm that's not so good, it makes me wonder what it's made of
Oh I hope I have some points on my Boots card because this sounds tempting :D
I'm pretty pigmented---if it's this way on me, imagine it on your skin. I'm hoping if I put it over a base on my face that it will be easier to take off. Remember, I tried it on my bare, un-primed hand.

I'm looking for a good full (or at least medium) coverage foundation too. The only drugstore product I use atm is the Revlon ColorStay. It used to look very good on me but my skin is more normal now than combination so it tends to clinge to the dry patches. So I'm now looking for something not so mattifying.
I think that's Estee Lauder most popular foundation, if that's not some new formula. I've tried it a few years ago and I prefer the Revlon one.

I'll have to be very careful because I don't want to walk around with clown cheeks for days lol
Is this remover oil-based? I usually take my makeup off with Bioderma and it works very good, but I used to put some essential oils in rose water and it was taking off everything

I really like the UD Naked Skin or the NARS Sheer Glow for Medium coverage. I've tried Estee Lauder and it clings to my skin and dryness. I don't like it.

For those who wanted to know (Meddy :p) the RT brushes wash beautifully. No problems. No shedding during application or washing and they perform beautifully. Again, they feel so expensive. They could slap Tom Ford's name on these brushes and people wouldn't know the difference. The weight, the density and the performance are fantastic. I hope they expand the line. BTW, I didn't use the contour brush because I don't contour everyday. This is about the blush and powder brush.
Thats great to hear! I ordered 2 powder brushes last night!

I'll try to get samples, I've heard a lot of good things about the NARS one. I like the Dior Star but I can't find a right shade for me

Dior has a funny range, but I love their BB Cream. :love: Recently I've been trying to use up my Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk, its nice, but its not like OMG AMAZING!! kind of a let down honestly.

[COLOR=0000FF]   I checked my order status about 4 times (ok maybe 6) and it still says 'In Process.'  Maybe I'll get lucky and get a shipping notice.  In the meantime, UPS just made it[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]   to my door w/three boxes.[/COLOR]
Fingers crossed! Yay for deliveries!

I really wish they'd get the blush brush back in stock at Ulta because I need another just for highlighter. After I used that brush for blush I wanted to toss my Mac brush in the garbage. What kind of brush makes a Nars blush work to apply? A crap one, that what.
I actually love my TF brushes. If I didn't have a small dog I'd cuddle & pet my TF brushes in my lap most evenings.

My TF cheek brush makes childs play out of my NARS blushes---so, so easy to pick up & apply blush with it.

I want a TF brush so so so bad... They're beautiful. I just can't bring myself to pay the $$$ :unsure:

That's awesome! Thanks for the report back, Shontay!

Everything sounds good!! Have you tried the foundation before? I want to change mine and I'm looking at this one, the mufe hd and dior star. I want to make an order from sephora when I get back to uk but I'm not sure what I want yet lol
Yes, and I love it! One person literally asked me what kind of face makeup I wear and told me my skin looked like glass. Best compliment ever! Can't recommend KVD foundation enough. I also like MAC Studio Fix.
