I usually at least match them up. Some days, I'll think of the outfit first, other days, I think of the make-up.

I giggled when I saw your post because I went to my fiance's 20th high school reunion last weekend. I knew exactly what I was going to wear- dress and makeup- about three days before, down to the last detail.

i don't get the hype about stereo rose either. the first time it was released, i actually bought it, then returned it for shimpagne *hides*

Can you get it to look like it's not metallic by using a very light hand?

Are there any photos yet of the In The Groove lipsticks?

If there are, would someone please direct me to them?

 

[dxgirly]

Right now this is my tentative list:


Stereo Rose – Mineralized Skin Finish: $28
Go For It – Lipstick: $14.50
Going Casual – Cremesheen Glass: $18
Right Image – Cremesheen Glass: $18
Chillin’ – Cremesheen Glass: $18
Hang Loose – Blush: $23
A Little Bit Of Sunshine – Blush: $23



I've never tried Cremesheen Glasses before, so my list might get cut a little, depending on whether I like them or not, but we'll see!

I like it like that lipstick (cremesheen) $14.00
MES-Togetherness $19.50
MES- Blue My Mind $19.50

i just think that it's great on my pasty skin to use as a blush because it's very pink!

Not at all - I'm pretty sure I'm the odd one out on MSFs!

Thanks Susanne and LMD84

*sigh* I will have to add Petticoat to my list. Might as well get them all and get it done with.

 

[FemmeFatale]

I love Cremesheen lipglosses so I am excited for these! I am sure I will pick up stereo rose just because of the hype! ::hides:: I am a sucker!

 

[Shadowy Lady]

Despite the pretty pics this collection is still a pass for me. Saving my moola for Alice + Olivia

no worries. if you can afford them all then go for it.

i think msf's are a great product because you can use them in so many different ways. that is one of my excuses for having so many!

 

[Visi]

Well, I don't spend much on clothes etc so I feel I can treat myself to some nice make up goodies once in a while.

And I only bought 2 pieces from TTB and PaP so that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it

i'm pretty much the same as you then! i only got 2 items from TTB and 1 from PaP! and i only buy clothing when i really need it. mainly because 5-6 days a week i have to wear my work uniform. so it's not like i get much chance to wear my own clothing anyways! plus because i tend to buy clothing that doesn't go out of fashion i find it lasts me longer too. so yay for saving on clothes and spending on mac!
