image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg View attachment 51474 View attachment 51475 The first 2 plum lipstick swatches leaned a bit more dusty than it appears here. The first one leaned more red than the second.

The lipstick are in stock but I preordered for triple points and a GWP on Thursday so I'll pick up my stuff this week.

I chose:
-maestro primer
-Maestro Glow foundation
-Bamboo (Brown 200) lipstick
-Amber (Coral 301) lipstick
-Sand (Beige 101) lipstick

I didn't get a swatch of Sand (Beige 101) as I just tried it on on a whim. 2 women asked me which lipstick I was wearing while I was checking out and ran over to try it themselves. I'm surprised since it was a nude and they were not in my shade range. I also swatched Flamboyant Red 404 to consider for later but it looks really good. I may cave on that one too.

I did not notice that Monkey highlighter so I don't know if they have it.

I wore the foundation today. It;s very nice and lightweight. kind of similar to mac waterweight. it is very glowy and i had to set it with a bit of powder. nice staying power, it started fading about 8 hours after i applied it. coverage is light but i achieved medium with flat dense brush (like the chanel, dior, shiseido and mac 196). didn't emphasize pores . less coverage than ysl te or luminous silk for example

Took pics for Katred. I can't remember if you stopped at a counter yet.
the swatch for the tube shown is at the very top. That was the darkest plum.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!

These weren't available at either of my counters last time I checked, so here's hoping they show up soon. I'm curious to see how the colours compare to the range they have/ had available.

Picked up my order today. The GWP was pretty good. They gave me a full size lipstick. I think it is a tester though (unused) because it has the colored label on the tube. I so wish they would do all the lipsticks like this. It is such a problem looking for a lipstick in the morning. Although they are making the numbers bigger, I still can't remember which number goes with which color. The GWP was Rouge D'Armani Sheer Pink 501. I don't think I have that one. I hope it looks okay on me. I also got a luminous silk foundation sample 5.5 (not my shade), eyes to kill mascara sample, si sample, fluid sheer #7 sample (It looks pink. I hope I like this one) all in a mesh bag.

I just tried the Sand Beige 101 lipstick on and it is a bit sheer. It is probably what makes it easier for me to wear. I didn't find the other shades sheer in the store but I will try them on probably tomorrow. I'm also going to try the primer and Maestro Glow foundation tomorrow. I hope all goes well. The shade I got looked okay in the store but it still kind of worries me that they don't have the same amount of colors as the regular Maestro foundation.

I see the new colors listed on the Bloomies site but they are calling it Rouge d'Armani Satin lipstick. Is this a new formulation or the same thing? Have they all been called Satin lipsticks? I still don't have a good handle on the lipstick formulas.

It's very finely milled with micro glitter that easily disappears with more than 1 brush stroke. I like it as a finishing powder, not a highlighter. I think most people can safely skip it.

Hi,

Is the Lasting Silk compact powder good? I need a powder foundation for these hot Australian summer days!
