Thanks. Macy's packs things so terribly. I looked on several dept. store websites, guess i missed a few.

F^¢7 won't let me "checkout as a guest with the option to create an account later". Grumble, grumble. Keeps wanting a password i don't have.

I think Highly Charged may be going back. After its disappointing performance in my crease, I gave it a solo run, with Water Willow pencil. I put a fairly heavy coating on my lids, and sheered it out into the crease and up a bit. It looked nice... iridescent purple on the lid and more iridescent cool pink as it moved upwards.

But after a couple hours, while the purple was still on my lids, the cool pink had changed to warm burgundy. I looked sick or on bad drugs.

I confess i didn't use any eye lid primer, so next week when i get back from teaching in Wisconsin i'll have to give it one more chance. It does look nice when first applied...

Hey Channy were you one of the lucky ones who went online to check out the collection at 8:30 in the morning when it released? I went on it at 9 and Hearts Aflame was already sold out! Which surprised me because I thought Lingering Kiss and Good Kisser would be the popular ones and would therefore be the ones to sell out first.

Howdy- I'm from Australia too.

I cannot believe HA sold out first, and on the first day too.

The other Electric Cool eyeshadows are fine - since the others i got are rather neutral colors. What is the best way to apply them?

I'm happy with Myself... lipstick, that is. And Wanting More (washed-out lavender) lipglass looks good on me - quite opaque, no sinking into lip lines, an almost nude color on my cool toned lips.

The Fluidline pencils are nice - i'm not getting anything spectacular from them, but they work well and last a pretty long time. I'm such a throw-back, i prefer wooden or composite pencils that i have to sharpen.

Since i will never need another blush as long as i live, because i have too many, i caved and got Animal Instincts powder blush. How could i resist shimmering plum!?!? It doesn't seem all that frosty. I don't need too much extra sparkle.

I am bummed because i think i picked up a little tan this summer - and i carried a tube of sunscreen with me and used it. It was the last day of medieval camping, packing everything into my van, and while i kept trying to face away from the sun, my rosacea was flaming by the time it was all packed and i looked a little darker everywhere else (and wearing long pants, long sleeves and a broad brimmed hat). I've been religiously using aha exfoliants on most of my face, and bha on my rosacea areas, and retinol serum, and i think i look a little better. Boo, sun!

I find the electric cool eyeshadows preform the best when applied using my fingers

I agree with kaitlyn. Fingers are the recommended use for the EC shadows. And boo about the tan :( Many think that sunscreen will prevent tanning, but it doesn't. The only way to avoid it is to stay out of the sun completely-my preferred choice :lol:
