Audrey,
How do you like Mercenary? I am on the fence on this one as I have Chanel Kaleidescope from the fall. Are they similar?

I could wear it ...But I had to blot blot blot it to almost nothing...Then it looked like Hang Up and So Scarlet ...and I have both of those so what would have been the point....It needed to be applied to lightly and the shine was overkill with it being that dark of a lip so blotting was critical for me.

MZZRach I agree..I adore Sharp...it should be sold as a single...such a good color

I love Tribalist. I wear it lightly almost like a stain and then F&F over it. For reference I am N2/NW15 with red hair and green eyes.

So I'm apparently wavering on buying it IN MY MIND but itll be on its way to me. I'm so dumb. But I'm going to hold off on vibrant grape, I think there are other great purples that I may already have or can get in future.

Not dumb...you can get Vibrant Grape from Pro anytime if you change your mind down the road

Hi April!

I really love Mercenary, and for me, it was one of the standouts in the entire collection. IMO, it is not at all similar to Kaleidoscope. It is a midtone bronze with a foil finish, whereas Kaleidoscope is more of a pewter color from what I remember. It is pretty unique, I think. In a collection of nearly 150 polishes, I have nothing that is similar. It was opaque in 2 coats for me.

This is what I plan on getting. Key work "plan." It could become less (which is sorta what I am hoping just to keep the checkbook happy) or more depending on how things look.

Lipstick: Purple Rite

Lipgloss: Gold Rebel

Lustre Drops: Pink Rebel

Eyeshadow: Night Manoevers, Vibrant Grape, Bright Future

Beauty Powder Blush - Eversun

Nail Lacquer - Mercenary

Awesome! I like that idea like a stain & I will try it out with my glosses. Thank you that sounds pretty!

I'm not regretting anymore.

I checked them both out today and On A Mission actually has more of a red base then Breath of Plum. I took pictures with my phone, I'll try to upload them later.

Now I really want mercenary nail polish! I totally doesn't seem like a color I would wear but it looks so beautiful!

 

[xoshopaholicxo]

guess what i got in the mail today?...

Refined Golden!!! I guess i was an Allure winner after all:] You have no idea how excited i was, I kept going on & on & on to my parents about it. LoL Now I have to tell my mom every time Allure is having a give-away. I was going to wait until F&F to order it, so now I can save $ for sunny by nature

I've been talking alot of SbN, I hope it's everything I want it to be

 

[FemmeFatale]

After seeing Ernie's swatches I am now jonesing for on a mission blush. I also am going to be picking up a bronzer, which ever one is less orangey I will get, I am also going to pick up peaceful. I am LOVING Pink Rebel, so Sun Rush also will be mine!!

I went to a CCO today

YAY Tish for getting Bright Future!!! I'm going to do a FOTD of Bright Future and thinking of some colors to pair it with Bright Future. Maybe Tempting, Dark Edge and Soft Force will do. Also, my order was shipped and won't get it until June 1st.

 

[TISH1124]

^^June 1st...where in the heck is it shipping from

 

[GlamQueen21]

From Baltimore, MD. Usually I get my packages a day early of the day that it arrives.

 

[TISH1124]

And it takes that long....that is like wow!!!

 

[GlamQueen21]

Yeah, I'm used to waiting almost a week for my package to arrive since I always do Standard shipping instead of 2nd Day and Overnight shippings since I don't want to pay too much for shipping but one day I will do Overnight shipping.

 

[TISH1124]

I always do standard as well and i always have my package within 4-5 business days at the most

I ordered on Tuesday and all arrived on Friday...But as long as its coming thats all that matters!

 

[GlamQueen21]

I placed an order on Thursday night after I got home from the bank and they shipped it the next day. I'm hoping that I'll get earlier than June 1st.

 

[TISH1124]

Oh girl yeah i bet you have it no later than Wednesday of next week.
