Random, but did you use to do Youtube videos? If so, then I loved your reviews! And if not then I sound crazy, but oh well :)

Totally OT. But how do you ladies manage to make your l/s stay? For some reason, I use MAC's lip P&P, let it set for about 15 minutes, lipliner, and then I use a MAC lipbrush to apply the lipstick. But it's really weird.. my top lip ALWAYS fades off before my bottom. Pisses me off when I see my lips in pictures.   Lol.

Still unsure about Outrageously Fun.  Thoughts? Is it too pink on me? And I paired it with the Impossibly Sweet lipglass... way to much glitter for me. I do like OF after I've blotted it down and its not AS bright. Oh and I also have WOG and Small Vanity on in this pic.

 

I think it looks great on you :)

The only one my husband hates is YR. You rock it and it looks great so I say get it!!

Hi Specktra Beauties!!! I'm new to the site but I've been obsessed with this site since the Spring! I've also vastly expanded my makeup collection by all your great reviews. I just came back from the MAC store in my local mall and pre-ordered my Glamourdaze products that I couldn't/t chance being sold out. I got Stolen Moments, Divine Blue, Stylishly Merry, Glamourdaze and Outrageously Fun. I can;t wait to pick up my goods on the 25th and add a few more goodies to my haul.

I really love these but I'm afraid that I won't get much use out of them.  I was really drawn to Feminine Edge but that's questionable now.  Thanks for the amazing swatches!

I've decided I don't need BUs of any of the Glamour Daze Fluidlines. I do like the colors and will use them, but I won't reach for them enough to warrant BUs. The dazzle pearl/glitter texture isn't something I'll wear often.

 

 

Little Black Bow  - Catch My Eye - Feminine Edge

 

 

 

 

Round two with Feminine Edge. It still applies clumpy. I'm not sure if its clumpy texture comes across in the pics. I used my NARS Smudge Proof Eye Shadow Base as a primer on one eye and it did help some. The application of Feminine Edge seemed more controlled with the primer, but still a little clumpy. I'm going to wait for more feedback about Feminine Edge from others before returning it.

 

Now, here's something I would like to know from all of you makeup pros out there. Am I possibly missing the point of Feminine Edge? Is it supposed to be clumpy on purpose? I did notice that the clumpy texture almost seems to make it look more glittery. I'm not sure if this is the intended effect that falls under some sort of makeup trend, or if it's simply a mess.

Oh and my face looks super dry. I'm glad I went to my girl after I took this and switched from studio sculpt to face and body. I feel soo much better now and it looks better and not as dry.

      i just switched  to face and body and i love it!!

There's even a link now so you don't have to dig around to locate the product you want.

Love the accessibility of these products.  I just ordered Sin l/s, Vellum e/s and the # 205 brush.

Just my It's so not too pink.  I think it looks very pretty.

hey i think that you look like a blonde amy adams.

I saw all the crushed metal pigment and lipgloss sets today!

The boxes are simple and just cardboard, but very cute. Not anywhere near as swanky as the various eye and lip sets in the padded boxes.

The green pigment set: The pale green is the same as we've seen before in Butterfly Party and Surf the Ocean, which is OK more or less, since it's a really nice highlight color that's a bit more interesting than a neutral, without looking overdone. The white is the same type of texture - I don't have this one in another set, but it's quite possible it's come out before. MEANWHILE, that deep bottle green is gorgeous! Beautiful color with a texture like the usual smoother crushed metals - not sheer at all. Then there is the MEGA-gorgeous brown with green duochrome. It's like blue green pigment or Club, but so much nicer - so soft and with a really pretty warm base color. These two make the whole set super worth it, in my opinion.

Originally, I was only interested in the green pigment set, but the soft smokey one, with the pink, purple and soft neutrals, is surprisingly nice. First off, the pink is just incredible - pink with purple duochrome. Amazing. Then, strangely enough, the medium brown made my jaw drop. It looked like an older CMP color, but the texture is brand new to the CMPs - it's just so amazingly wet look - even smoother and wetter than the Pressed Pigments. Wow! The deep purple is a duochrome too - with deep purple as the base and a lighter blue highlight - doesn't remotely need to be wet to bring out the colors. I was trying to restrain myself, but I think I'll be getting this set along with the green one - it's actually got more beautiful pigments in it than the green one, if you don't like the CMPs that are very sheer with the glitter pieces. 

I didn't try out the all neutral one - I'm sure it's nice, but it's too plain for my tastes.

The pink/purple lip gloss set is very cute - Boys Go Crazy dg, Color Saturation csg - you can't fail with these. The pink csg is very soft and pretty and not milky, it's got a very subtle lavender cast. It's almost like a pink version of Narcissus. The dg creme is also very soft and pretty, without heavy glitter - a nice soft nude.

The brown gloss set was a bit samey between the various colors and the coral set had a lot of cute colors, but colors we've seen a million times already in gloss, so you'd have to be quite a dedicated coral gloss person to feel like this is a must have, imo.

Looks very striking on you...
