I think that the face charts are gorgeous but I am a little scared of how they will look on a fair girl like me. I am going to try one or two out though to see how sever it looks. I am not normally a girl who shys away from a bold look but that is usually with lots of eye colors. I am not normally known for wearing a bold lip like dark red or purples. I think that I could swing it with some effort.

I'll post swatches later this afternoon of my little Electroflash haul.

Thanks Karin! Now I want this MES!

I have a feeling I will end up getting most of these shadows.

I was in MAC today, and I'm not feeling the sonic chic love. I did like a few of the mes, but I'm not up for paying 22$ each. Learned that in a couple of weeks a new MAC counter will be opening up in the Bay at the mall across the harbour! I'm half contemplating applying... but it kind of scares me for some reason? People have told me for a while I should apply to MAC, I just... have a phobia of it.

 

[gigglegirl]

I will try and make swatches tomorrow--my first with this new camera!!

awesome. i love them. and sooooo tempted to go down to the counter and get more mes or blushes. they are so damn pretty. and guess what, it was weird, i took like one swipe of dainty with my cheap blush brush and it had so much colour! So i'm a bit nervous about getting a deeper tone b/c the brush usually does it so light.

the buttery feel of the mes make me want them all!! so bad!!!!!

 

[gigglegirl]

oh and i wanted to say, melrose mood is a bit pinker than twig-twig and freaking rocks!!

someone talk me down from buying more mes.....dum-dah-dum da-da-duh-dah-dum (my attempt at the jeopardy theme)

 

[Sanayhs]

Hmmm... how many mes do you have so far?

Do you mean mellow mood? I keep getting those confused as well! Hannah your puppy is adorable! I can't wait to see swatches when you do them.

 

[gigglegirl]

lmao so true, mellow mood. yep apparently i have heatherette on the mind!

lol thanks, thats suki with her little roo toy thats her size (actually mcdonalds happy meal toys from years ago that were on a plastic keychain)

mes so far:
engaging --love!
love connection --this is good too!
pink split --great
earthly riches---meh
ether
lovestone

(the latter two i'm debating on getting rid of)

then id be justified in getting more!
i have my eye on play on plums! and possibly polar opposites.

Poor Susanne...here is hoping everything will be all right.

Went up to the CCO today and on the way home, lost my bus pass! Thank goodness I barely work next week, as I have to actually pay my bus fare. I did pick up Canton Candy and Chartru paints though. Next time I want Pixel and Flammable.

Also got my Marigold glitter in and really it's nothing too special. It's a brownish gold VERY chunky glitter. It would be pretty for costumes though...

Did they have anything new at the CCO yet? That place is making me crazy with their lack of shippments!

EDIT: Nevermind Katie I just read your post under the CCO thread!

she brings that stuffy in her mouth and as she's a chihuahua cross papillon she loves heat, so she comes up by your mouth to get hot air (prob not good that my mom enables her by blowing hot air on her fur). lol

shes so darn cute!

i know, the blushes look nice, i love dainty! but i'm going to try and wait til some are perm with the mineralize line (or the rotating mineral stuff)

the mes are calling me though, i'm not sure ill be able to avoid the counter and not get play on plums!!

Oh no... I'm glad you're both okay, but I know how much it sucks. Had a bad accident in '99 that made me really anxious behind the wheel for quite a few years. But I always had to remind myself that I was okay and it's just a car.

Don't be scared of the darker blushes. I'm relatively fair, and Gleeful is actually my favourite so far, of course applied with the 188. The darker ones just require a really light hand. I tried Merrily on today, and while it is a super pretty colour, not sure if I'm feeling a reddish blush on me.

Mind you, it was essentially a no make-up day, but I was so eager to try it on. So perhaps it'll look nicer once I have some colour on the eyes.

Clslvr6spd, I'm glad that the neuro doesn't think it's anything serious. Hope the meds will help.

Play on Plums is rather pretty! It's one of two that I got. And you've got me excited to try Mellow Mood now. I do like me some plums, but I guess I'm not too excited yet because right now I'm all about summer colours!

Oh and ladies, I did mention this in the Colour Forms thread, but I got a look at the collection today. Believe it or not, I opted for Inner Hue (the peachy lippie) instead of Pop Circle, it just looked soooo much better on and I'm normally not into peachy colours at all! Also got Naked to the Core, quite a nice nude. They had decent colour payoff considering they're lustres (me thinks!) and they have that core thing happening!

As for the rest of them, I only looked at Circa Plum p/m and it didn't really stand out to me, I just got Satellite Dreams and find this to be prettier. The powders and the CCB's or whatever they're calling them really didn't do much for me either. Now the warm eyes palette on the other hand I love! Don't have mine yet, b/c i was at my local counter and stupid me pre-ordered it from another counter!

Not only that but as far as single items go, they had 4 blushes and a Glimmershimmer. However, they had Perky paint pot.

 

[gigglegirl]

woohoo glad you liked inner hue---i really want that one!

thanks for the 188 idea, gleeful did catch my eye too.....*points* enabler!

LOVE IT!!

I've learned from the best!

But really, it just gave such a nice sun-kissed look. And it's not that intense. I didn't have to use as much of a light hand as I did with Merrily. Okay, I should stop now, shouldn't I?!

 

[gigglegirl]

you prob could stop, lol, as who knows what'll come down in a few months!! Plus, how fast do you go through blushes? I find it takes me a long time to get through anything mineralized (only one i'm denting so far is MSFNatural) so I think this blush will be here for years!

 

[stv578]

i for one do not go through blushes quickly at all... something better comes along long before I get much use out of any! But it's definitely the texture of these and the BPB's that got me. Not sure if I'll ever really use any of my other blushes, with the exception of Ablaze.

There is going to be a MAC counter in Mic Mac? For Serious? You mean we might actually start getting the limited release collections? I may faint.

I'm so serious. They open in a few weeks and might even get in Colour Forms! (It's a maybe since they open in a few weeks and CF is out now) One of the people from the Halifax store (I forget her name, crap) will be managing. Wait! I think it might be Dianne? That sounds right...

Anyhow! Yes! TWO MACS FOR USSSSSSSS!
