So happy found a Macy's that had the last 2 private party lippies & I'm on my way to pick them up after school!

Sorry that my brows (and hair) look like shit LOL. I just wanted to put up a picture of me finally wearing "You've Got It" lipstick. I only put on a light layer of it so, with my lips not being very pigmented, it almost looks like I'm just wearing a light gold gloss. I'll also add that my lighting makes it look a lot less gold than it is. In person there's a stronger gold frost than what you see in the below pictures. Nothing unwearable though (for me anyway). I can't help anyone with my foundation shade because I never looked into MAC foundations. All I can say is that I'm on the fair/light side and that I can pull off both warm and cool colors, but I think my complexion leans warm.





I should layer more on next time, the way I usually do with my lipsticks.

I have skipped everything thus far. I am just waiting on those pigment sets and I am good to go.
LMAO! I got 10 items and sent 5 back lmfao! Waiting on those piggies as well! I love the sets because I have absolutely no use for a regular size jar of pigment. And I cross referenced with the pigments I already own just to make sure I don't buy what I already have lol.

I'm wearing Glamourdaze today and I really prefer this over private party on my skin tone. Tbh although they have been compared, on my lips they're not very close. I think I'll be bothered about LL until I try it out. I can't stop thinking about it and TotT.

Of course, sorry :) She likes to wear makeup on her eyes mostly, not so much on her lips which are naturally very pigmented and I don't think she'd be confortable with pigments. She just got into makeup so she doesn't use anything "too" complicated such as lip liner or pigments. 
Since he likes to play up her eyes more, I'd suggest one of the eye palettes (i like the cool set the best) or one of the eye bags (violet-would go well with the cool set if you want to do two sets!)
I turn over my mascara religiously and have no trouble finishing primer and foundation in a reasonable time period, but I'm comfortable keeping powder products longer than 2-3 years. I use a clean brush each time and don't introduce moisture to them (either water or Fix +) so I don't think there's the same risk of bacteria as there is with cream products. I used up a couple of blush over the better part of a decade and had no ill effects. I'd have been more concerned if I used filthy brushes. I won't be tossing my MAC e/s palettes either - no way I'll get through 40 odd colours in 2 years! Erinn, should I perhaps be sanitizing them in some way to lengthen the life? Spritzing with alcohol? I don't currently do anything special with them. I've bought virtually all of my makeup within the last 2 years so it's pretty new. I keep my few backup lippies and foundation I'm not using in the fridge to lengthen their lifespan.
As long as a powder hasn't had water introduced into it, it won't go bad. Ever. So a 2-3yr lifespan in powders is incorrect. If that was true my entire makeup stash would be worthless right now. If it's you're own product you're just using yourself, you don't need to do anything to it to "prolong" the life of it. If you're using it on other people, just wiping the surface with a tissue is enough to sanitize it as powder does not harbour bacteria. DO NOT spray them with alcohol. This can ruin them.
Yeah I know, but since this collection is up right now and the item hasn't gotten into my hands yet, I decided to put it here.
Even so, it's against forum policy to do so in any thread other than the Clearance Bin.

I've really come to love cremesheens - Glamourdaze was a favourite lippie last winter. I'm wearing it again now.

Satin used to be my favourite finish, but now I find it dated. I don't wear Private Party on its own - the finish feels a bit retro and not in a good way. It's not that different from Amorous really - they're not at all dupes, but it's a similar look.

For work, I wear PP with Absolutely It liner and On the Scene CSG (Glitter and Ice collection). I like the CSG over it so it doesn't feel so...well...old. To play up the purple at home, I pair it with Heroine liner. It's a nice enough lippie but it's honestly not all that. I'm more excited about the PP MSF, S&S f/l and the kohl pencils I bought.

You know what.. I think I'm going to skip Private Party. I've seen too many pics where PP looks close to Craving/Amorous and I hate those kinda colors. Sucks that I'll won't have anything with this gorgeous packaging but oh well. SO. At first I wanted like 20 things incl. sets and now I'm down to the Nude eye bag and it's still a maybe. VG1 is still on the list but I'm not gonna buy the set. Might skip this entire collection actually. :sigh:

Thanks - that's kind of what I thought. I don't generally share makeup so I'm not concerned. I've never done the alcohol thing and I'm glad I haven't. Thanks for the help. :bouquet:
Yup. Like I've mentioned before, i don't use any of the makeup in my kit on myself, and non of my personal stuff on clients, but once in a blue moon, if a shoot or event calls for a colour that i have in my own personal stash, just for that one time i will use my own product like a shadow or blush, and just a quick swipe with a tissue on the surface is all it takes to properly sanitize it (as i use no powders wet, ever! I know what starts to fester under the surface when you do use it wet :sick: ).
