I want to add that you ladies must wear Later with Stars N Rockets. That's what I'm wearing now and it's awesome. I would take detailed photos, but I'm not 100% happy with my application. My eyes were so watery today for some reason and I was sweating like a dog so the inner corner wouldn't hold my shadow. And I'm in the process of growing out my overplucked brows, so they will look crazy for a while.

You will love them, I'm sure.

I did. And I am jumping on the love-it bandwagon. It seems crazy in the tube, but it looks great on and I tried it over a red and it made much more wearable, IMO. This was my first DGC and I am very pleased with it.
Can I just say how much I am in love with my nail lacquers? I am still debating which should be the first one I wear. I'm completely surprised by how easily Military applies. And So Rich So Pretty is great, too. Morning After can be a tiny bit streaky and uneven, but overall, it is gorgeous, too.
Needless to say, I am completely in love with all seven of my A+O purchases.

I showed my WHOLE ENTIRE BACKSIDE at MAC this morning! Doubled all the Alice & Olivia Pigments... Partylicious is my least favorite. Later RULES. 'Nuff Said. Got the purple nail polish (so rich... so pretty) because it is simply stunning on! I didn't expect it to have so much dimension.
Military looks like the OPI Matte version to me. Not impressed. So I skipped.
Skipped all of the glosses and lipsticks.. none of them moved me. I'm really sad about the yellow one (I Want Candy). I wanted to like it. I don't.
But when I tell you that I have enough pigments to last through a whole bunch of jobs, a few spills, and a lot of playtime on my own face...
BELIEVE IT!

The pigments are so beautiful in person! I tripled my pigment collection! I snagged both Partylicious and Later. I did pass on If It Sparkles, though. I'm just not convinced it's unique enough....
(OK, so I actually own a set of '08 holiday vials and one of the stacked pigments from SCF. But I only owned one bottle of "regular" pigment before today! I still need to travel out to the CCO to try for some of old sizes.)
I also picked up So Rich So Pretty, If It's Pink and Sparklicious. Now to avoid going back for the turquoise polish! I think I can dupe that, but wow, is it pretty!

Went to MAC on my lunch break and I got
I Want Candy - This really surprised me, it looks really good on like honey on the lips.
Later Pigment and If It Sparkles pigments, I thought I wanted Partylicious but I have a ton of teal e/s I just could not justify the purchase.
If It Sparkes kind of looks like a cross between Helium and Pink Opal pigments, its really pretty.
There was so much stuff to get between this and In The Groove that I forgot to get So Rich So Pretty nailpolish! I had to call the counter and tell them to hold it for me until I get off work. I do not feel like making the drive again but I really want that polish!

It depends what you're looking for. I Want Candy is obviously the more unique of the two, but if you don't like out there colors, you may want to go with Sparklicious. However, I Want Candy can be layered and worn subtly as well. This wasn't much help, but I tried.

My mom stopped by the FS by me after work (she works right down the street from the mall) and picked Later. up for me.
And I got my shipment notification email today! I'm also getting If It's Pink..., I.Want.Candy, Morning.After, Military, and If it Sparkles.... Can't waiiit to play with my goodies.
And the next time I leave the house (and who knows when that will be, as I'm taking the IL bar in a few weeks and am kind of on lock-down studying), I'm wearing that Later. and Stars n Rockets combo shontay posted. HOT.

I'm really sorry, and I KNOW this sounds wrong coming from someone that wears black, dark purple & blue lipstick but I want candy makes it look like you have something gross on your lips to me. Sooooo not my aesthetic and I just don't get the appeal at all. Glad you like it though! I don't get lots of things people seem to find attractive, heh.
Stars & Rockets (or Pink Pearl Pigment, which is similar), as well as Cornflower do look REALLY good with Later.
Quote:
I'll buy any Later or Partylicious you have as extra!
SO... the pressing went great! Partylicious looks like a slightly more blue Parrot in the pan. Later looks like a midight purple with blue/purple sparkles... sooooooo pretty. In fact it looks like the custom mixed nail polish I always wear. Teal Pigment got the boot out of my palette for Partylicious. Making room for Later was a pain though.
