oooo! you should check out Darkly, My Dear blush when VV comes out - that looks like a gorgeous plum brown. Even I'm going to check it out and I'm NC15!

Good news, Superslick Eyeliner fans!!! Easy removal tip!

I finally had my chance to get dolled up with some sexy wings using Pure Show and when it came time to remove it for the night, my beloved Clarins Instant Eye Make-up Remover took it right off with no crumbles, rubbing etc.

I've used this stuff religiously for many years. You just shake it up, soak a flat cotton pad with it then lay it over your eye for 15 - 30 seconds. Poof! All gone without the least residue or smudge. No rubbing or tugging.

I also use their gentle eye makeup remover, which is a different formula that's a little oilier, since I got some in a promotion a while back, but the Instant for Sensitive Eyes is by far the best, since everything comes right off without having to rub your eyes at all. Plus it's not drying or harsh. Pretty expensive, but one bottle lasts me a year.

I was worried the eyeliner was going to give it a challenge, but no problemo. The only thing that I have to really wait on before lifting up the pad is when I've got a GPS on thickly over the whole lid and under the eye.

i'm using my bb quad today and using the blue liner

they look very nice together. i have done quite a subtle look with the quad today but i love how you can add lots of the dark brown to smoke it out when needed!

Crap, I went to order some new Studio Tech Foundation and ended up getting Best of Breed l/g and Smokey Noir superslick liner. *shakes fist at MAC*

Do you have Dazzlelight or something similar? I tried both Dazzlelight and Shroom duping the quad and they worked good!

Pet Me is lovely!

Such a soft, pretty pink, a more pigmented, more matte and slightly warmer Well Dressed. This baby is matte for a mineralize blush! It goes perfectly with Just Superb Cremesheen Glass.

That was all for me from this collection (I got Angel lipstick instead of Of Royalty as I found it much more wearable based on swatches, and wanted to get Deelight Cremesheen Glass because I don't like the regular lipglass formula - saves me a lot of money - but they didn't have it in stock.)

Yay for finding great PERM products though.

(Until they get disconned that is...)

I plan on going to MAC sometime this holiday weekend. Probably not today....trying to see if they b/f will go to Tyson's maybe tomorrow or Monday and I'll check out the BB quad again. Most likely I'll get the green liner too.

Let us know if you bought it. I swatches Club against BB and both are 98% identical on my hand. The only thing that really threw me was that in the store Club was green-brown and not the red-brown mess my Club is

Ok I will let you know. Doesnt sound too promising then about BB from your swatch for us

. I wish it looked like it did in the pan ..a nice pretty green!

 

[Anneri]

The reason that I didn't buy BB quad though I loved it was the Club dupe - both Club and the other one (I always forget the name...) turn to a reddish brown with sparkles on me, and it's exactly that kind of shade which makes me look like I've an eye infection or cried for hours.
It's so sad, because I wanted to love it...

But I got Pet me bush instead today and played with the liner for the first time - I'm impressed!

 

[sleepyhead]

i still cannot believe a lot of people are having problem removing the superslick eyeliners. mine comes right off in pieces when i touch it after a couple of hours. then again, no eyeliners ever stay put for over 2 hours on my eyes. i guess my eyelids must be bleeding makeup removers

 

[LMD84]

my liner comes off very easily with some of the elemis cleanser i am using right now

 

[Susanne]

I had a very busy and stressful week and try to remember which look my MA did with the BB quad...

I will try to recreate it tomorrow and let you know!

Ugh. I think I need to just go ahead and get LL and Jealous since my curiosity hasn't died yet. I would like to see it on a WOC, but doesn't look like it's going to happen. I'll be the guinea pig.

I used The Prowl lipstick the whole time I was there, I raved about it here before I left & just read the week's worth of posts but no one else seemed to have bought it (I'll have to take a pic and show you girls what it looks like)

I bought The Prowl.

I think I could put it on the back of my hand and entertain myself for hours looking at the different colors reflected...

Yes! I could see pink in certain kinds of light.

I got Fancy Cat too!

That's exactly what The Prowl is... it's very sheer, Temptalia said it was streaky and I could see why b/c it's a lustre but it could also be built up.

That is just what I was going to say. The Prowl is sheer and wearable. I have both The Prowl and Fancy Cat but as of yet, I haven't worn them out yet. I'm still trying to get the most use out of my spring/summer colors, especially the ones from Spring Color Forecast.

Sorry you had a stressful week

!! Hope this week is better!!

 

[marajode]

Ok, I have a question about the lipglasses.

How would you say that Lap of Luxury compares to On Display?

How would you say Fancy Cat compares to Style Warrior l/g?


I purposely avoided even making eye contact with the lipglasses when I was at the counter.

BUT... curiosity is killing me.
And you know what they say about curiosity.... it killed the cat.

HAHAHAHAHA

get it? fabulous felines, cat....
