Wore Modern Pewter for the first time yesterday. Just tight-lined my lids, MP all over and some mascara. Very nice for the grocery store.

Just curious has anyone had a reaction to the EDES or highlighters? I had an eye "issue" and I'm about 80% I had a reaction from the shadows which suck because I love the colors SO much! Around the time I got the shadows I literally put them on like everyday so around that time my eyes started getting itchy and one eye actually bruised. I stopped wearing makeup for a bit but then by the time I started again I had other items to put on. So weeks later I'm like wooo let me put this on I haven't worn it in a while and my eyes start to itch after a couple hours of wear. I didn't think too much of it until today when I had the same EDES on and it started again so I'm thinking maybe I'm allergic to something in it. I said I was going to test it out once more just to make sure. It just sucks so much because I love the colors and I don't have anything like those colors/dupes. Sometimes it itches so bad that I could just rub my makeup off, but when I have my regular/other makeup I'm fine it doesn't bother me. Just curious to see if I was the only one experiencing this.

I have been thinking of getting TFGG, but i have heard it makes shadows more difficult to blend. Do you experience that?

Kimbunny that sucks. I've moved on to Hey sailor and other stuff in my collex. I'm going to try them out this week, and see b/c I really don't remember. It took me a while to see that MES bothered me.

I have 3 furry and feline true loves, too! 4 if you count The Man. :)

According to a scholarly article i read, Persian cat hairs were used in some fine paint brushes for those glorious Persian miniatures. Make up brushes can't be far off :pretty:

Glad u love ur YV & cats too. Dog people just don't understand the cat & human connection. I grew up with dogs but the tides turned when a dog my parents & I adopted & had for over 12 years bit me. It was so scary, that I have dog anxiety. It's gotten better but when a 130 LB dog comes after you, you don't quite subscribe to dog love the same way. I've got a few of the ED ES that I have yet to play with. So much MU, so little time. R there are any combos that u've tried with ur YV that u love? I haven't had good luck with YV.

at my local mac, the girls call the 227 brush 'the kitten paw'....it's so soft and fluffy!

"Kitten paw" - how cute! Now that I look at Nova's paws, which I love for their cute size and shape, it does remind me of the 227 brush!

Nova! What a cute name. That is too funny (but sad) because I just got the 227 recently & it totally looked like the kitty's paw we just fostered. 2 months ago, my hubs & I brought home a cat from the shelter. We instantly became attached because he loved to be around us, was very vocal, intelligent & needy. He was what I call a 'lap cat'. We wanted to keep him but he VERY aggressively bit me on multiple occasions, not just one bite but would bite & then come back to finish me off. It was so weird, like a switch flipped, because he was sooooo affectionate with both of us from the get go. We did everything short of medicating him to get him to stop, but it got worse & he's older so he wasn't going to grow out of it. About 2 weeks ago he went ape shit and for no reason & not playing, attacked my older firstborn baby. It was horrible. At that point, I knew could never compromise the health, wellness & sweetness of my Perisan. On Monday he went to his new home & I've cried a lot. I have to tell myself that he may have never had a chance if weren't for us taking him in. The man that took him must have been freaked out because I had put on a full face of make up on & by the time I got to drop kitty off I had a combo of mascara, Undercurrent & Petrol EL & 2 lbs. of eyeshadow runnng down my face. (very) Long story short is that the 227 looks so much like the cat's foot is I put it on my hubby's chest & he immediately said "Squeaky's paw". I love my 227 brush! I miss him so much. Not going to cry. Not going to cry.

I've worn Dark Dare twice this week. Why have I ignored this shade? I wore it in the outer V with Cloudy Day one day and Clarity the other. I've really been ignoring my Extra Dimension shadows. I must work them back into rotation.

I forgot about mine for about a month and a half, but they really are amazing! I have been wearing Sweet Heat or Yound Venus on the lid with Rich Core in the crease almost every day for the past week or so
