Me too! I hate touching my eyeball so I'd rather be blurry-eyed and go around saying hi to people I don't know than putting contacts in!

Back on topic. How hot is stylesetter LSM with a gloss on top!!!

I've been using Stylesetter LSM with Phlox l/s from Spring Colour Forecast...took me forever to come up with a use for that lipstick since it's so sheer! Now it's one of my favorite lip combos.

Eye injury stories don't make me laugh, they make me cringe. I remember I went to an eye doctor and he had to put a machine really close to my eye and I kept blinking, like I couldn't control it at all! He started getting all pissed off at me asking me why I even came if I wasn't going to cooperate. I thought he was an asshole. haha

I decided to stay away from the other pearlglides so I wouldn't wear them so often. Something that so many people have a reaction to is best to stay away from! My eyesight is more important than looking pretty.

I just returned my 3 lipstains. My MA was like "whyyyyyy???!!!". She loves those things. I'm like sorry, but they aren't going to get the love and attention they need with me. I swiped the GPSs for fun and the liners, but it didn't tempt me at all.

Yeah, I think I'm about to exchange my greasepaints unless I find them a happy home. I have so many sparkly shadows in browns and taupes that I just don't love Dirty as much as it deserves. Zinc zone is just too dark for day, and I have gray shadows already for evening.

I always try to exchange rather than return (cause I feel so guilty!), so I may hit up my pro store and get some glitter or some pro-color lipstick or shadow.

Yeah I tried to exchange,too. I got Hey shadow, Beauty Marked and Just Add Colour lipglass. I still got money back. Oh well.

Has anyone compared these two products--in performance, wear, ease of usage? (Not just in color). I just bought a L'Oreal HIP Color Rich Cream Crayon in 282 Intricate (the Blue one) and it is LOOKS really similar down to the sharpener in the end. Though, IMO it's not very creamy, it sets VERY quickly, there's very little time to smudge it. In terms of wear and performance, are they similar/comparable to the GPS? (I'm sure MAC's shade selections is prettier, but I'm not too concerned about the colors right now.)

i am using what little i have of my guilded green pigment on my lids today. as a liner i used undercurrent again! and it's awesome looking!

 

[Makeup Emporium]

I am not sure if this has been covered but I have a (stupid) question about the lipstains...I bought one and the tip is already completely covered in colour. Do they come like this? For some reason I figured the tip would be white until used? Just checking to make sure I got a new one!!

The tip isn't white. It's supposed to be like that.

Thank you!!

 

[GlamQueen21]

Yesterday I recieved both Charred Mauve GPS and Designer Purple p/g and I'm in Dallas and I won't be able to play with them until Sunday!

 

[malaliath]

I received four Pearlglides yesterday ... Designer Purple, Industrial, Undercurrent, and Petrol Blue.

I love them all but I'm really loving Industrial right now! I love Pearlglides!

 

[Teggy]

Here's my "magical eye" look with Undercurrent on the top inside and Designer Purple winged on the outside. Looks much prettier in real life.

 

[LMD84]

^ it looks very pretty!

 

[Chester]

Very pretty Teggy!

Do you do any eye shadow along with DP and UC, or just the pearlglide liners on their own?

No shadow, just Painterly paint pot as a base. I have no idea what kind of shadows to use with that combo, so I just let the liners speak for themselves. Plus, the shape of the line make my eyes look more upturned and very sexy. If I did a shadow that wasn't a neutral, maybe I'd do Carbon or Black GPS from Style Black.

Thanks! You are right, it's best to let the liners speak for themselves.

I'm just so used to put eye shadow on I will probably feel stark naked with only liner and no eye shadow. Maybe I'll try them over Blanc Type or Nanogold.
