I was surprised to see some stuff still there after about 5 minutes. LOL Heir is gorgeous, but I don't think brown skin like ours can pull that off easily.



Understandable. It's just that if I ignored popular things on instagram or youtube I would've missed out on things I really enjoy like Melt, Coloured Raine and Colourpop. I don't care about that girl beyond her lip products and I heard some good and some bad about it before. I just figured I won't know until I try it and judge for myself. I think they're great.



kyliecosmetics.com They sell fast. Like, Mac fast. I get news of restocks from instagram and I make sure I am by my computer. She restocks pretty often, though.

PS: is it just me or is Mac not selling out as fast as it used to? Like, I can go to the site and shop a collection that I didn't even know was out for a week. What's happening there? Fatigue or is that just a few bum collections? I am completely out of the Mac loop.

I think MAC is doing a 180 of the Instagram brands by having new products in stock. When their collections got crazy last year and the year before, I gave up. I want to try more Jeffrey Star but I don't care enough to stalk Instagram for the "restocking at 10am PST!" announcements, only for it to be gone in 20 minutes. Same with the Violet Voss Holy Grail palette & Colourpop's new stuff. My only regret is missing the Dej Loaf lipglass!! (luckily I placed my last Colourpop order before the sale lol)

I love Coloured Raine as a brand. They always respond nicely to comments, and repost pretty much anyone wearing their product with a compliment. And being black-owned is icing on the cake. Oh and the products are bomb!

I have it in my Saks basket, along with english rose. Could I be so bold and ask you to describe them? Thank you!

Just saw this. Ask away anytime my dear! I can take pictures & swatches for you tomorrow if you want.

Cherry Blossom is a medium slight red based pink. Its not bright or barbie pink. It is such a wearable pink. It is one of THE prettiest pinks I own - & that's a lot :)


English Rose is so beautiful! It's a slight mauve, slight nude soft rose pink.

Thanks so much. I rely on your input because I think we are both fair( I am casper white though) with pigmented lips. Sometimes a bright pink will turn fuchsia on me. These sound just lovely.

Here ya go! They are all much prettier in person & on the lips. The pink isn't as bright on the lips as it appears on my skin.
Also, something happens that smears the lipsticks around the top casing. Not sure why. Its not that I'm piggy LOL!

Givenchy Rouge Interdit 11 Rouge Rebelle - GORGEOUS red/strawberry red. SOOOO much prettier on the lips than my arm & deeper in shade. The texture is shiny without looking tacky & the color adheres to the lips & the feel is quite light on the lips.

Oooh! That truly looks like a strawberry jam...yummmm. It is sheerer than I though the formula would be. Very nice!

Hello lovelies!!! I've been MIA here for way too long! How has everyone been?

Is there a big launch today? For some reason the Sephora website keeps saying there's too much traffic.

Hey all!

Haven't been around much(at all!), been curbing my makeup spending. Is there any good promo codes now, I seemed to have missed all the good ones.
