Thanks for tips on how to use Blunt just in case it doesn't work as a contour shade on me. I'll try it as a blush and as a transition shade to get further use out of it whether it works as a contour shade or not.



What was in your order that shipped? My order for the Is It The Beat eyeshadow shipped. I'm just waiting on my Techno Cumbia duo to ship.

Wow brown?? I totally didn't get that vibe. You swatched it first or are you going by what it looks like in the tube?

Just by the tube. I got scared and haven't tested it yet. Maybe I'll go try it on now.

** Edit: It swatched less brown than it looked in the tube but it still feels more rusty red than I expected. I may try to hit the center of my lip with a little Heaux or riri woo just to brighten it a little. I'm bit out of my comfort zone with this color.

I just got my package from the presale containing amor prohibido and DOY. Both lipsticks are nice. I am very happy with my picks. Getting TC completes it for me...although I do have an urge to try to get CLF to complete the trio and an eyeshadow from Belk. If it happens, great. If it doesn't I will still be good. What I am going to do is get the Selena Ones LP to seal the deal. I have been playing her songs and dancing to them with my daughter off the internet. I want us to learn all her spanish songs. She loves learning spanish and this will just be our thing. I rather listen to her music than watch her movie again though it was a really good movie. It's just too sad. This all sounds so cheesy but this is how I'll appreciate Selena's legacy.

You made me pull up a selection in Amazon Music (Prime), so I'm listening to her music because I never have. Como La Flor. Aside from the movie I never did. And I didn't really know of her before the movie growing up in Canada.

Oh okay then yeah, alter it a bit. Or maybe just wear it around the house to get used to it. I haven't tried it on my lips but love it on my hand.

Got my lipsticks today! I haven't even swatched them yet...this might be like a RHPS 'Frank-N-Furter' situation where I never even take it out of the box bc I consider it a collectable lol.

I love her voice! Her music sounds so romantic and feminine and joyful. Spanish is a romantic language as is but she just makes me feel the songs that much more. She learned how to sing spanish. Her father taught her the language for the performance. It's feel good music.

Just got my presale order today and I'm loving this collection! BBBB is the star of the show. Hopefully I can snag another. And my two Nordstroms orders shipped!

I still can't believe I had the chance to get BBBB during the presale and I passed. This collection is just filled with regrets

Mine looks more berry than brown.

I didn't mean that the lipstick is brown. It just has more of a rusty brown tone to the red than I expected it to have. It's a beautiful color but it's out of my usual color pallet. I think this color is actually right on trend for this fall. The 90's and 70's color pallets and patterns are hot right now. I think I just need to add a bit of plum or more vibrant red to this shade to really make it work for my personal taste.
