Well, i've been sitting on my pretty pink hatbox... not literally, of course. I bought the Lavish Rose Lip Gloss Set mostly for the purple with glitter of Boys Go Crazy. I doubted i'd ever want to wear the pale pinks in there. And so far i haven't worn any of them.
So today i opened the box and, rather than just looking at the beautiful colors "nestled all snug in their beds", i decided to try Demure. It is a warm opaque pink with glitter. With trepidation I decided to try it on. It was a surprise, a nice surprise. On my lips the base color is a light nude pink, not milky at all, and not noticeably accenting any lines in my lips. It is so... demure! And that much is probably dupe-able. BUT the kicker is the glitter is SKY BLUE. It isn't giant and chunky, but rather fine micro-glitter. And, well, i'm a pushover for unusual colors AND glitter.
Demure has turned out to be a gloss that i will probably wear with some frequency during the Spring and Summer, when i wear my dark violets and dark plums and dark browns and dark greys less, and wear pinky peaches and peachy pinks - and Snob and Angel - more.
In its honor, i opened up my pretty green hatbox and put two of the Sweetly Smoky Crushed Metallic Pigments on my eyes - Prettified, a warm mauve, and Maribu, a slightly warmish light pink. Then i lined my eyes with Raven Kohl Power Eye, a black base with warm red pearl, also from Glamour Daze, and dusted a little Semi-Precious Crystal Pink MSF on my cheeks. It's a bright sunny day today and i'm dolled up for it.
If anyone can recommend a dupe I would be grateful
