lol...which two mes's did you order?? I really do like the dazzleglasses, but I was hoping that they wern't going to be really sticky (which they are) but none the less, I still like them.

Beauty Powder Blush and MSFs are totally different, so it's hard to say which one is "better". They give totally different effects on the skin.

Forget about the stripes! I can't work with them, either! I've tried mixing medium, water and dry....Nothing works! They are a chunky, glittery mess....

But with all that said, I love, love, love the solid colors. I'm NW45 and find these compliment my coloring so well! I wish there was some way to cut out (with an exacto knife) that center strip. If I want to use those colors, I'll subsitute a pigment (silver fog, platinium or copper sparkle) for the stripes.

I'm waiting for Persuasive to wear with Inter-view. (they left this out of my online order last week.) I substituted Moon's Reflection es with Inter-view last weekend and that was a head-turning look! Can't wait to see what the look will be with Persuasive and Inter-view

Alright.. the bp blush is selling at USD21.30 in my country. Too expensive I think.

I agree the middle glitter in the mes is a hot mess, but its worth when you got two great colors. i love dangerzone. I havent tried my presuasive but that looks like its going to be a obvious beauty to apply. I need to next time take pictures of my masterpieces.I did a awesome job with dangerzone last week with some crazee on the lips..

Gurrlll....you're making my mouth water. Now, I've got to try dangerzone and crazee....I love crazee.....Got it with B2M!

The glitter is EXACTLY why I ended up skipping the e/s.

 

[thelove4tequila]

I was really on the fence about Danger Zone being that the red is similar to Mi Lady MES but RenRen on Youtube totally convinced me I needed it! Problem solved for me.

Question, is Crazeee similar to Eager? Anyone?

 

[clslvr6spd]

I can't get enough of Inter-View! I love it!!!! It's definitely one of my favorite MES!

I have been lemming for Danger Zone, but I have Mi'Lady MES. So I think (lol) I can pass on it!!

 

[TISH1124]

I don't think the reds are alike in IRL..I have both and RSS Dangerzone's red is much more pigmented, deeper and brighter IMO..I have to really work with Mi'Lady to get the red to be anywhere near as deep as the red in RSS on my skin.

Thank you sooo much! I thought they were the exact same but now your the second person I have heard that confirmed they are not. Great.

 

[jdechant]

Hmmmm...all this talk about MES from RSS has made me wonder if I should be looking at getting another one!! What do you guys think? I got DangerZone yesterday...haven't tried it yet cause I think it might be too much for work (but I am sooo excited to try it) Is there a need to get any other MES that isn't completely dupable??

 

[clslvr6spd]

Well, I have Dangerzone on hold! I can't wait to use it tonight & make a hot sultry eye for the night on the town!!!!!!!!!

Inter-View is my favorite! I also ordered 2 backups

The colors are so rich & gorgeous. For the middle gold, I just lightly dabbed my finger on the strip & then lightly patted it right over the middle of my lid over the darker color of Interview - gorgeous sexy!

I'm so glad you love that one too! I also really liked the color of the beige strip on Word Of Mouth - well, I love the whole trio
