I let the lid do the work w GG since it's so gorgeous and multi-dimensional.  I just use Texture to add some warmth and transition in my crease.  Any warm/soft/matte brown would work.

Have fun!  GG is one of my favs from this collection!

Hi, so I just got my Rich Core today (there's still some extra dimension shadows here in Sephora online in Brazil) and it looks so purple! Nothing like the swatch from temptalia 301

I was looking for a red-toned eyeshadow so I was a little disappointed with what I got. How does your Rich Core looks like? Did I got the wrong impression with temptalia's swatch or there's something wrong with mine?

Rich Core looks really purple on me too. A lot of reddish rose/mauve colors wind up leaning very purple on me....I think it's because of the darker skin I have naturally around my eyes. You could try it over a base that neutralizes your natural lid color a bit and see if that helps.

Rich core is purplish on me, as well. But I bought it because I liked how purple it was ...

Havana and Modern Pewter look AMAAAAAAZING over MUFE Aqua Cream in #2 (Steel)!!!!

It makes a great bronzey taupe color that stayed ALLLLL day!  

I thought when I was putting it on in the morning that by the end of the day all that would be left was the Aqua Cream, but to my astonishment the ED shadows had completely adhered to it and still looked lovely.  Maybe this will help some of you that are not loving your Havanas......

 

And for Grand Galaxy, anyone who owns Clue shadow (cool brown with subtle blue sheen), this is a great combo. Clue in the crease is kind of just like a more subtle extension of GG itself so it becomes a really natural smokey eye.  Industrial Pearlglide is a great lower lash liner with GG as well.

 

And I am still loving Dark dare!  Looks great smoked out over black liner with Neo Nebula on the lids.

Do you mean Club? If so I will definitely try them together!

Oh, Clue is such a great colour, I need to try this with another purple, I never got mine.

Thanks a lot girls.

I was wondering, has anyone got the Rich Core like temptalia's swatch? It is nothing like mine. It's such a great color, just what I was looking for :(

I was expecting to be purplish but mine is totally purple, the red-toned is super subtle.

I use the 189 or the 165.  Both of these brushes were promoted as useful for applying MSFs.  Surprisingly, to my knowledge, they have not been repromoted.  Is Mac pushing any particular brush for MSFs now?  Although both are discontinued, I will give my take on them anyway.  Both pick up product pretty well but the 189 picks up the most color out of the two.  In fact sometimes I have to be careful not to overdo it with the 189.

Thanks for the help lovelies!! bouquet.gif

You will find them all, shoved under some towels or a box of toilet paper or something!!

I placed an order for Havana earlier this am but am still waiting for a confirmation. I'm hoping they actually have these in stock and won't cancel my order like they did w/ my five Whisper of Gilt ones, haha.

Searching through the HC stock at my counter tonight I saw a Modern Pewter and 4 Rich Cores!  So don't give up on your counters... They may still have stock!

I almost always wrap up the (precioussssshhhh) make up in towels, so I would look through boxes of towels Priarpeet!  Moving sucks...

I love another reason to use Nebula!  I don't have any Aqua creams, but I have an old school paint that is quite steel-ish in color, maybe I can give it a try?  Anything to distract me from missing the boat on Modern Pewter...

Hmm, I'll have to check out my counters the next time I inevitably buy more HC stuff. I'm still feeling skipper's remorse over Modern Pewter and Sweet Heat.

My counter usually gets picked over like seagulls on a plate of nachos, but I guess I could check.  I think I would have better luck in a few months at a CCO or in the clearance bin here.

Oh wow, now I want to have Rich Core as well. amuse.gif I was scared by the redness in the Swatches of Temptalia. Red's don't suit me at all, but purples are my favorites. Can anybody tell me if there is a purple that is comparable to give me a slight idea what it may look like? I definetely don't want a reddish bases purple.

 

I love In Extra Dimension so much: love both the Skin finishes and the eyeshadows.

 

I am quite surprised that all the eyeshadows are still available at Douglas in the Netherlands.

They had a few Rich Core's left at my counter.  I stopped by there today to grab the last MP, and went ahead and grabbed 1 RC.  SO, if anyone wants it, PM me and I'll give you the total and details to PayPal "gift" me for it...
