I bought the Esperanza palette and actually returned it because the shadows were way too soft/powdery for me. I mean, the glitter was everywhere when I first opened it. Such a bummer because the colors were so pretty.
I LOVE my Esperanza palette :D powdery but soooo pigmented and I love how the four on the left work together and then the four on the right....I died for that mint color and the super bronzy color

Lolol that is so true, being a good sport makes all the difference :D and he looks soooooooo good in black eyeliner! I wish he would be so whiny about it, millions of ppl wear makeup and it doesn't hurt them lol yeah that's him in my pic, I wna find out his skin tone, it would be so informative to have a captive NC test subject

I keep buying stuff from Sephora because I can't wait for Playland and my need for makeup is growing! I just got the UD electric palette, LOVE it. I can't buy any Kat Von D though, she's a Nazi sympathizer and I just don't play that :( I also got Fanfare for a peach, but it looks orange on me. Everything looks orange on me. Which is okay when it's Lady Danger, but neon orange and muddy orange are NOT the same.

Don't worry, those points last a LONG time! Mine have been over 1000 for a long time, I always save them for a good 500 pt. freebie :) They've never removed my points and I've been shopping there ten years

NOpe, i cant either my right has blue veins, my left has green. and when i've been matched at sephora with their machine thingy it says i'm beige.

So all you smart folks, if I'm "beige" am i nc or nw?
When you are matched at Sephora with the Color IQ, you are given an alphanumeric code by the device. That code will tell you which side you fall on. For example, 1R11 (Red) or something like 2Y06 (Yellow). Once that code is placed into the Color IQ iPad, all the foundations both online and in store, will pop up. There is a chart (grid) that shows where you place in the spectrum, but all you really need is the code. Hopefully you were asked to input your email address, so that your best options (and your color IQ code) will be available to you at any time.

My best guess is that you're probably somewhere in the middle, meaning neutral. What is your Color IQ code?

Yay for another A cup! I do got me some booty as well. My husband bless his soul still loves my little boobies. Makes me feel better. Def helps that he's a butt guy. I guess I might look kinda silly with tig ol bitties. I'm really short and petite. But def got some curves. But hell I'd be happy with a small C cup! Even B shoot! Lol. On a good day sometimes Bs fit me.
I'm also in the club.  I'm an A when I'm thin and a B when I'm chubby :cry: my best friend has F's... and they are natural.  Then again, she has no butt and I have a butt.  She's always envious of me and I'm envious of her.  We always say together we're the perfect woman!
Lol! I wish I was that optimistic about them. But we live in a boobie obsessed world. It's hard to be a small breasted girl these days. Last time I was in victorias secret I left in tears. Even thier smallest bras are too big. Fredricks of hollywood is where I get mine. They just seem to fit me better. Plus have plenty of padding yay
Girls! Be proud of those titties! Us, big boob'd girls want them! Boobs are really such a envy thing. The small girls want big. The big want small. Never ending war with boobies!
Shoot I'd give anything to be at least that. You're good girl!
Singer 82 I'm the same Hun :( But learnt to live with it I'm a 34c don't look it sometimes lol

I was really looking forward to playland and bright side and now that I've seen swatches, I'm disappointed. I wanted that intense, opaque yellow I saw in the Instagram images. Any recommendations how I can get a yellow like that?
Lime Crime has a yellow lipstick.

When I went in sept last year I was 1yo7 Then I returned in January I was 4y06 Often when I go to read the description of some of the foundations I'm matched to their descriptions say light-medium with beige undertones.

OMG i want those so bad it hurts!!!! They are lovely and i will get them both. Monarch first. Also getting the Eserenza palette too. Very impressed with all of those. Do u love them so far?? we have the same skin tone, so if u like them on u, i bet i will also
I haven't gotten a chance to play around with them yet but I do love how they swatch and feel. I especially love the packaging in pretty much all her palettes and these ones are no exception. I wanted to pick up Ladybird but I didn't realize it had been discontinued :'( I think the Monarch one is a good one to start since its more versatile and easier to use on a day to day basis but how can you get one and leave the sister behind....:)

If you would like, I can go over your results when I get a moment at work in a few days. Today is going to be absolutely crazy at work. I will keep your number handy so I can peruse your results on the iPad at work. It's easier to navigate there. :)

Have a wonderful weekend!

I do like the one i own, but Liba said the new ones are a bit different. The new ones are less sticky on checks which is good, but not as good on lips as the originals, so depends on how u intend to wear it. If you only want it for lips, skip it for sure. Its a product you kinda have to try for yourself. My skin is dry on my checks, i love the mac cremeblend blushes, they are fantastic.
thank you for the info .. i am looking more towards wearing it on my cheeks .. I've never tried one before so now I'm super excited and considering buy 2!

I feel that my coloring is probably the same, too. My whole body doesn't match..
My face is a hot mess...

It's a mixture of warm and cool. Plus I have Rudolph syndrome due to my hay fever
