Long Stem Rose

 

[zabbazooey]

I picked up Most Wanted last night...love it!

 

[MisaMayah]

What a relief they're perm!! I want to get Missy, Funshine, Rock Out and Grenadine. Bought a couple first time round but havent been using them much cos I wanted to make them last, now I can use them to my hearts desire!!lol. Sad about no re-release of Pink D'lush too =(

 

[elegant-one]

Just got Rock Out...it's a beautiful sheer/lighter version of Rocking Chick or Vivacious with a little more pink to it.

I'm sad about Pink D'lush too...it was a fave

 

[missmacqtr]

All i want is Rock Out..

 

[Ethel]

Just got Rock Out. It's sort of like Pink Poodle, but a bit less bright. I really like it.

 

[Chachababy]

I got Voile and I love it! It gives the perfect gold shine to lips by itself. It also looks great layered over lipstick.

 

[Keysten]

Just got Bare and Ultra Elegant...I like them alot!

I to Nordies today to check out the MAC counter and I only swatched Long Stem Rose and I LOVE it! Sadly I wasn't able to buy it (I'm a really careful spender) but REALLY want it haha.

Does anyone know if it'll show up on my pigmented lips?

whilst slimshines can be sheer, i dont find them 'that' sheer. they can be layered to increase intensity surprisingly well

I'm so glad the slimshines are perm as i'm loving the one i have so far - my lipstick collection has grown recently but think its going to increase

 

[user79]

I'll have to check them out, I didn't get any the 1st time around because in Europe I thought they were pretty darn expensive for what it is, but I'm glad they're perm. now.

bare rocks!
i am pretty pale and it is THE perfect nude lip for me.

I'm really glad, that they are perm now. I love the feeling from the slimshines!

I want longstem rose !!
Did Bare change? I have it from last year, and it seems very brown-ish. In the pictures and swatches it looks a lot pinker. Hm.

That's exactly what I was thinking!

 

[mezzamy]

whilst i havent tried the new bare, im assuming it's the same? i find that when i photograph bare, it photographs alot pinker than IRL. odds are, the product is the same, it's just appears pinker in photos

 

[Miss_M]

I just bought Bare today and when I asked the SA if the Slimshines were permanent, she told me that they are LE in the Netherlands, just like last time.

I'm going to check with another SA just to be sure, since I'm really confused right now

Not really, IMO. Voile is a very sheer golded shimmer, whilst Garden was a more milky, opalescent with shimmer.
