WOW, I thought I was the only one that STILL didn't own Satin Taupe! And I completely agree with you, Style Snob=

memorabilia looks nice! i'm intrigued by the chromagraphic pencils, what exactly are they used for?

Waterline. Like the way you would use a white kohl.

I'm wearing Style Snob today...it's my go-to work look...use that with Undercurrent and it's LOVE!!!!

Yes, InspiredBlue is correct about the chromographic pencils. I asked my MA today and she said they are for the waterline to make you look more awake and they are not as stark as white liner.

this is good atually. i hate using a white on the waterline because it looks rather un-natural one me.

Cut to Fit reminds me of Aztec Brick from Colour 4 Quad. Skip, Fail, Pass!!

Tissue Weight is mine, I need more light everyday neutrals.

I'm a little sad because i'll be passing on all the eyeshadows as some of them look similar to what i have and the others i'm just not into. Hopefully the paint pot will be really nice as well as the lipsticks and lipgloss!

i want those too. except the grey. scene is my go to grey. i may get bamboo. i want to put these all in the same quad.

So far I think I can pass on all of the eyeshadows, particularly if Aztec Brick does end up being a good dupe for Cut to Fit!

 

[Winthrop44]

I think I'll really like Tissue Weight. As far as Gazette Grey goes, from what I've seen so far I think I prefer other warmish greys from the past (like French Grey).

Looks like I may be talked into a blush. Still wavering on the shadows. Pretty sure about Gazette Grey, and I'm leaning toward Tissue Weight. Erin, how do the textures compare between Tissue Weight and Hey? Which is better (discounting color differences, of course)?

Oh, and I cross-posted your swatches, Erin.
