You could try a pink liner like Pink Treat under it? Or maybe apply it sheered out with lipbalm?

That sounds really pretty. I think the person I saw on youtube did that as well & it was sexy pretty. I will probably turn mine into more of a smokey poppin eye.

I should just sell my other ones.

Sooo...you say these are good?

Are they so good I don't need to use Fix+ to get them show even a little bit? Do they have VERY good pigmentation? Push me a bit more please!

I have Love to Love and Togetherness from this collection, only used L2L so far. I didn't use a wet brush or foil at all (used Painterly PP as my base) and I think the payoff was pretty good. Not excellent, but far better than past MES and definitely workable without smashing your brush into your eyelid!

Togetherness swatches really well on my hand, I'll be wearing it tomorrow to see if that translates!

I didn't get any Cremesheen either and I only bought 2 lipsticks (ok, 1 of them twice

)

I've always like the mes, even the older more glittery ones were really nice colors & I still wear them, but these are so pretty & its nice to have all the separate colors in one little pot.

From what I have read, most liked these blushes:
Hang Loose
Band Of Roses
Happy Together

Blue My Mind was a pretty blue trio that I think a lot of people liked. Some of the other es are more neutral colors.

I think the blushes have caught my attention a bit more. Thanks for the clarification on Narcisse blush. In all the retailer pics I have seen recently it looks lilac and I would love to have a lilac blush.

How close, if at all, is BOR to PE from Chanel?

My mother happened to be nearby the first time I opened mine, and she immediately blurted, "Good heavens, that's dark!"
I didn't want to admit it, but even I was a bit taken aback by the crayon purple appearance in the tube.
When I "tweaked" it just a bit, though, it looked lovely.

About $20 difference
lol.gif

I just swatched them side by side. Well, not really close.

PE is a brighter fuchsia barbie kinda pink with shimmer

BOR is more on the raspberry burgundy rose plum side but still pink & is more pearly/matte on the skin & very pigmented

Gorgeous!
The other half of it is more on the darker burgundy plum side

Chillin is surprisingly perfect over it. It also finally makes Blooming Lovely wearable for me.

However, if you don't want to buy something else, try blotting GFI. When it's blotted or has worn down a bit, the blue cast goes away and it becomes a more mauve lilac color.

Band of Roses is sooooo pretty!! It's just very different from anything I have - PE is rockin' too - it's a tough choice! I'm not very much help, am I?

What liner are u using?

I use either:
Vino
Currant or
Nightmoth l/l with GFI.

If you don't want to use a liner, how about putting a bit of your foundation or powder on your lips and then putting the lippie over it?

I placed an order on A Little Bit of Sunshine MB today!!! I cannot wait to get it! I was thinking about the enabling of the MB in this collection since I haven't purchased one since Too Fabulous. I'm thinking about ordering Hang Loose MB but at the same time I have Azalea Blossom and Two Virtues MB. I'm still passing on the MES.
