I just love gingerbread and I have no shame in loving food scented makeup or candles (or nail polish). :p


I didn't even read it that way until you mentioned it! LOL! Usually I catch stuff like that.

LOL! I felt like I could smell the gingerbread just reading that. Pumpkin Spice candle time. Does anyone make a good smelling gingerbread candle?

Yankee Candle had one last year and I hope they bring it back for Christmas. I believe Bath and Body Works had one at some point, but I'm not entirely sure.

My local grocery store has these really awesome homemade ones so I'll have to check there tomorrow. See, now I feel like I NEED to sniff gingerbread lol.

Stila Eye for Elegance Liquid Eye Shadow Set ~ $45.00

I've been eyeing this and the trio. If I'm understanding correctly, the trio is a good bargain because it's about 6ml of product for $25. I hope that's right because the containers look small. But, this is a product I've been wanting and not in a full size for a single shade. I'm trying to seriously limit my cosmetic purchases to items I can use up before they expire.

I have three of the Glitter and Glow. This set appeals to me because of the new Shimmer and Glow. I am all about the sparkly things right now ;) I think they will be a nice base to the glitter shadows which tend to sheer out. I also think the set is a fair value. The full size tubes are .153 fl.oz. for $24 each. The minis are .07 fl.oz.

I went to Sephora to get another sample of the Fenty foundation so I won't run out before the restock and the tester was gone! My shade was the only one missing. Someone walked out with it. This is wild. The MUA told me to check back Saturday because they're getting a big shipment drop, but I stood there and checked the app to see if there's another store I could go to and my shade had just popped up online. I ordered so damn fast and one day shipping of course. Hallelujah.

You're so right about the shimmers being a nice base!

I'm optimistic given how the IG posts sharply increased that feature WOC, or brands trying to showcase shade diversity within their ranges. Which, granted, most of those brands don't have true shade diversity, but some do! Hopefully, more will soon!

Agree---from NARS yesterday. Stunning.

Is there any feedback on the Hourglass Metallic Strobe palette? Temptalia gave it a B+ and I DO NOT NEED MORE HIGHLIGHTERS. Still.....it looks so pretty!!

I'm trying to decide between Stila's Eye for Elegance and Written in the Stars holiday kits. I was really hoping that Stila would come out with minis of these for the holidays, but they came out with TWO sets and I'm just lost in a sea of holiday choices. Currently leaning more toward Written in the Stars, but I thought I'd come here just in case anyone has strong opinions :roflmao:

The reason I am going with Eye for Elegance is for the new Shimmer & Glow shades. I already have Kitten Glitter & Glow along with Bronzed Bell and Retro Rose Gold, so the shades of Glitter and Glow are also unique. The WitS kit has a dup for me and the other shades do not appeal to me. ;)

Does anyone have the KVD liquid lipstick in Witches (the black shade)? I don't know why but I'm in a dark, halloween kinda mood and I'm thinking that would be nice. I like black lipstick on other people, but I usually think dark colors age me. Right now though I don't really give a damn.

And I feel like such a boob b/c I realized I could've just bought my Fenty foundation from their website. That never occurred to me until I watched a youtube video tonight talking about ordering from the site. I went to check it out and my shade is there. Very funny.

I got an order in late yesterday. I ordered:

- Lancome Liqui-Pencil in Brique- they put them on sale and I just got one last week in an order. I was mad. A few weeks ago I noticed the colors on my wishlist were gone! Not even listed. I went from store to store looking for them. I found a few but and bought them but not the main one I wanted. Last week it popped back up in stock. I was surprised and promptly ordered and it came last week. I went to see if I could get another and it was no longer there so I guess it was good that I ordered it last week. I did have quite a few on my list but I decided to just order the one I wanted the most and hope the rest don't disappear before I can get them. I wonder if they are discontinuing the whole line or Sephora's exclusive contract has ended. I really like these and hope they will be available elsewhere.

- Bite Beauty Holiday lipstick in Spiced Plum??? Ooh I really like this one. I think it is a little darker than the online swatch or less red anyway. It does have shimmer flecks in it but not too much. The color is quite familiar to me. I have to look at my plum lipsticks and see if I have a similar one. I may get a back up of this. I'm thinking about getting a lipliner from the line to go with it although I don't really need it. They have quite a few plum lip liners though. I'm not sure which to pick. I may have to go in store for this.

- Bite Beauty edgy neutrals - they put these on sale and I've been wanting to get the rest from this collection. I tried them on last night and it wasn't love. I know that these are a look though. I'm just not sure about them. The eye look I had on last night definitely didn't go with the lipsticks so that could be a factor. Plus, I'm into brighter lip colors right now. Actually all bright makeup. I think I'm just trying to hold on to summer.

BTW I was wearing the Huda Beauty Desert Dusk eyeshadow palette. This is my second time playing with the palette and I liked this look better than the first one I did. I went with the purples this time. I liked the look but as of now, I don't like this palette more than the Rose Gold one but time will tell. All though I like the eyeshadow look, I could not stop checking out my highlighter in the mirror. Then I realized I forgot to use the Huda summer highlighter palette that I bought to go with the eyeshadow palette. I'll try again tomorrow.

I couldn't hold myself back anymore. I just ordered the Stila holiday glitter and glow trio and the Hourglass Metallic Strobe palette. My holiday cheer is coming early :xmas:

:D I think it would look chic on you. With your hair in a fun updo & big hoop earrings....at least that's how I saw it in my head lol. Hey, did you see all the Philosophy gingerbread stuff up on Nordise? I'm not sure if it smells like gingerbread or soap :hehe:
