I have a lipstick and gloss and polish I haven't worn yet but I have worn some of the things. But I should have worn everything by now. I completely understand.

I realize that this isn't much help, but GA does have 20% F&F from time to time. So that should lower this to $160.

Of course, if it were $150, that would then be $120, which is sort of in the range of other premium lines that combine skin care with foundation (By Terry, for ex). A more comfortable price point, once you are in the $100ish range, that doesn't seem like a huge stretch.

In other words, I totally agree with you on this.
If the weather is not too hot here, I am thinking of doing this! I wasn't able to get samples yet of this foundation, but I did try it twice in the store. I can wear either #1 or #2. Ideally, there would be a color that had the undertones of #1 with the lightness of #2. Since I have fair skin with yellow undertones, I will probably get #1. I just love the elegant texture of this foundation. And, I just ran out of my Maestro foundation, so I may pick Crema Nuda in place of it.

Such a gorgeous unique shade for an Eye Tint. I would love to see how this looks on other eye colors too.

For me, in the hotter months this is too heavy. Which is why I ever got the Maestro. You might want to try the Fluid sheer to add a half pump to the foundation of the back of your hand. Regardless, remember this was meant to FIRST warmed up on the back of your hand, as in swirl around and then dab on your face. I use my fingers to apply, then go over LIGHTLY with the Artis brush oval #8. These brushes are now sold in the store on online at NM. Resigned for NM. So the head doesn't snap off. Since I am so pale I use Fluid Sheer #2. It does add just lovely punch to the look. A MA from Armani in Paris showed me this trick. You can use this with any of their foundation products.  Dior Nude Air and YSL Ink Fusion foundation have improved the concept of Maestro. Remember for those who own Maestro, it MIGHT explode if you fly with it. Please consider placing in a zip lock bag in case this happens. Don't know how Dior fixed this problem since the dropper looks the same as Maestro, but don't have the messiness from the Maestro in general with Dior Nude Air. Yes, I own all 3, plus the one you got. Which I do love. 
Well to be honest Hun we never ever ever get hot weather in the uk pmsl It's shite raining most days or raining here n there on and off Suns out today mmmm but for how long Not like the states or where ever When it rains it down pours then it soaks up within a few minutes and the humid your in the states my gosh No wonder ladies can't wear certain foundations in the hot weather and lippys melt lol I have never had a lippy melt in the uk It just doesn't get to over hot here etc In fl my gosh I rather not visit in the hottest months of June July august So hot and humid cannot stand it Sweat pouring off forehead and sticky body no thanks And walking round parks like nearly fainting I was But I had heart prob then and didn't know So gosh I understand where your coming from with weather We don't get them probs here Did you say the maestro was better then ? As I find maybe the silk better for me but I wouldn't know as didn't try and maestro

Is that a bronzer? Or a healthy-glow powder like Les Beiges? I'm kinda interested.

Suns out today mmmm but for how long

Not like the states or where ever
When it rains it down pours then it soaks up within a few minutes and the humid your in the states my gosh

No wonder ladies can't wear certain foundations in the hot weather and lippys melt lol
I have never had a lippy melt in the uk
It just doesn't get to over hot here etc

In fl my gosh I rather not visit in the hottest months of June July august
So hot and humid cannot stand it
Sweat pouring off forehead and sticky body no thanks
And walking round parks like nearly fainting I was
But I had heart prob then and didn't know
So gosh I understand where your coming from with weather
We don't get them probs here

As I find maybe the silk better for me but I wouldn't know as didn't try and maestro
Maestro was the first of its kind in formula to hit the market. It is fab, but it is so messy. As in the dropper smears product all over the neck of the bottle. Then you have the exploding bottle if you fly. Nope, not all the time. But it does happen. Dior Nude Air has improved the bottle, and truly have no clue why their design does not give the mess you get with Maestro, since it looks the same. Nope, not an engineer, so perhaps a super brain out there can explain?

YSL Ink Fusion foundation is the cousin to Maestro. Again, to me better formula, as in more coverage. Not as thin and totally different application. Must remember, a whole lot less is needed. As in a TINY dots. Or you will be makeup boarding!!! I do not regret purchasing Maestro, but I would not re-purchase it. Based on better products out there. Dior Nude Air has a very limited shade range.

So get the humidity issue. Not sure if it is cold or hot here today. Cold but humid, if that makes sense? I have never seen humidity as one has in the country of Panama, along with a temp of 139. Nope not kidding. Yet the women I saw there piled on makeup, when my face just wanted to melt.

Wow!!! I like that too!!!
Let us connect the dots. The new palette from By Terry is showing oranges with purples. Seems to me, the same color family here, but in the cream formula. Of course one would need both.

Has anyone tried Light master primer?
I use the primer in the black bottle, no clue which one it is. Love it, doesn't turn my face bright pink. Allows foundation to glide on smoothly. The thing that sucks no clue to when the bottle is close to empty since it is a hard BLACK plastic container.
