Oh, and the Chillen (blue) cremesheen gloss color is supposedly gorgeous on. I used to have a Prescriptives limited edition gloss that was blue, and it gave the most beautiful finish and color to either bare lips or over lipstick. I think this will be on my list too!

that's great! i guess i will finally buy my first mes then

 

[kiss]

I am not getting any mes no matter how pretty they look. I never use them!

 

[cougargirl]

I have never even swatched an mes. For some reason, they have never interested me. Are they decently pigmented?

yeah they are usually very pigmented. especially if you use them wet

 

[s_lost]

Lou, I never thought about using a MSF wet, thanks for the tip

I'm very excited bout Stereo Rose, I never saw it in person.

 

[purrtykitty]

I really should stop buying MES, too. I almost never reach for them. But they're so preeetttyyyyy!

same here! i never remember to use them b/c they don't fit in my palettes

 

[Karen_B]

I have so many MES that I love but forget to use. Often they are decently pigmented but sort of "milder" in colour that regular e/s, I find.

Four?! You really mean business

I just don't get the MSF excitement. I must be an alien. I only have soft and gentle and I like it as a highlight or over blush, but it's not rocking my world and I doubt I'll ever even make a dent in it. What do ya'll use your different ones for?

I am however excited about the cremesheens!!! I hate shimmery lips and love love love the creamy glosses!

Check out the swatches of the other msf's, especially if Soft & Gentle is compared with them. You'll see why we're so excited! Most can definitely be used as a blush and add such a pretty glow to the cheeks. I've used mine as a shadow before (Comfort, Petticoat, Warm Flush, etc.). To think I can add Stereo Rose to my collection puts me over the moon - I've waited 4 years to get it at a decent price!! (market prices were ridiculous for this and So Ceylon!)

I like to use the more pigmented MSFs in place of blush. I'm kind of pale (NW15-20), so I actually use them as blush a lot. Redhead is probably THE single most flattering face product I own. It makes me look so healthy and awake.

This collection could end up being pretty huge for me! I love MSFs, I'll probably get at least 3, I also like MES so I'll get a few of those too!And depending on swatches, a mineralize blush or two and some Cremesheen glosses!

My favourite thing to do with MSFs (Especially anything like blonde, refined, perfect topping where I can put it over a normal blush) is to spray my face with Fix+ and while my face is slightly wet I dust on the MSF over my blush. It goes on a lot more pigmented and gives that perfect "I'm glowing from inside out" look. HTH

Petticoat I use as anormal blush because it's so pigmented, and warmed I use it to warm up my face to give the perfect bronzy look

wow that sounds HOT!!!!

I can't wait to try it

 

[marusia]

Here's a secret, I have never tried MSF!

Petticoat sounds like where it's at for me, I'm probably too pale for Stereo Rose.
