Does anyone have any good suggestions to wear any of these new piggies with? I haven't even had a chance to "play" with them yet, so I am looking for suggestions

Thanks Notte,
That's really pretty on you! I was actually just looking at that in the FOTD section. I don't have Typographic though
Did you just do Partylicious all over the eye, Later in the Crease, and If it Sparkles as a highlight? I want to try this tonight!

You could do it that way for sure, but here's how I did it:
You can substitute Carbon for Typographic!
I did Wet Partylicious on the lid and blended the edges with a dry concealer brush. Then, I used Typographic [matte dark grey] to define the crease and then blended that out with a teeeeny bit of Later. Then, I took another clean blending brush and blew out the black with If It Sparkles. I used MSF Natural Medium as a highlight.

You can try, but honestly, if you apply carbon with a verrrrry light hand, you should be alright
. Typographic is a really DARK grey. It's like a sneeze away from black.

Thanks a lot to all of you! Sounds like I'm getting Partylicious, but not going to bother with If It Sparkles. On the fence about Later, I don't normally use such dark pigments, and since I can't swatch it as it's going to be an online exclusive in the UK, I might just not bother and wait for it to come out with Felines.

If it Sparkles is the same color as Pink Opal, but the finish is more of a pearl rather than a frost. So in short: Partylicious =/= Mutiny If it Sparkles = Pearl Finish Pink Opal = Frost Finish |

AW, I love that look Shadowy
Very pretty! I have most of those colors you used, so I might give it a try. I can't rem if I told you but I ended up buying Thrills the other days since my store still had it
It made me think of you, since I knew that and FOF were the only things you bought from To the beach. I am so glad I found it and can't wait to try it out with Flurry of Fun!

I tried I Want Candy on today and while it didn't quite go with the rest of my look (and so I don't still have it on) I loved how it looked on my lips.
my later and partylicious piggies arrived today!
they are so pretty. i love them when applied wet - absolutely beautiful to look at
hating the new jars though, these are my first and i hate the way they open and close and i find the stoppers are weird with the little tab and kinda messy too

^ I don't like the stoppers either. For some reason, I leave them in, but I'm always soo careful taking them out because I'm afraid I'm going to fling the pigment everywhere.

Orly Bonder is absolutely my favorite base coat! I love it! I use it for every type of polish now, and my manicures last so much better then they used to. I've tried every kind of base coat, from low end to high end, and this one just works the best for me.

Here's a swatch comparison of Mutiny and Partylicious. I placed this in the swatch section too. I used a base of Rollickin'
I wore Partylicious today with Later in the crease and really like it
. Partylicious is so pretty!! Thanks to riotlove for the swap and the other samples of Later and Sparkles coming from shootergirlnc
