So I told her I wanted to get the lipstick, and sure enough, she grabs vg vi, so i politely asked, is that the SE? And she barked "what do you mean SE?". Um, special edition i say. She looked at it, and sure enough, it wasn't. She then asked me again, if i wanted the gloss as well.

Anyway, then I asked her if I could look at Perfect Topping MSF, because I wanted to see if there were any that had loads of lavender in it. She said, um, they're all the same once you swish all the colours together. To which i replied, "i don't think they're all the same". She responded, YA, THEY ARE.

Luckily, a really nice MA came over and told her, "actually, they're not entirely the same. She just wants to pick one out. Just go take some out for her to see". SA just looks at her and says, "well then, can you help her, cause I gotta go do something".

Okay, so luckily the MA that ended up helping me was really nice and i was on my lunch, so in a rush. And yeah, i ended up exchanging my MSF, not something i normally do, but hey, they really jacked up the price on these, i want to be happy with the end result.

Rant... over...


I'm sorry you had such a bad experience. Isn't it funny when we know more than the MA's?!? I always think "Isn't this your JOB?!"

(no offense to any MA's- I surely don't mean all of them- I have had plenty of great ones too

Does anyone know what is the lavender look that Fergie is sporting with VGVI LE? Interested in what she is using on eyes/cheeks.

Apparently she is wearing Crystal Avalanche, Seedy Pearl, Parfait Amour and Satellite Dreams.

And here is the howto:

Start by applying CRYSTAL AVALANCHE Veluxe Pearl Eye Shadow (white with silver reflects)
Below your brows to highlight your eyes with Brush #224. Next pat SEEDY PEARL Frost Eye Shadow
(a pinked lavender) onto the center of your lower lid using Brush #275. Apply PARFAIT AMOUR
Satin Eye Shadow (a subdued purple/blue with silver pearl) and SATELLITE DREAMS Veluxe Pearl
Eye Shadow (deep grey/plum with violet/blue reflects) to the inner and outer lower lid with
Brush #252 (leaving the Seedy Pearl visible in the center).
Brush on HARMONY Matte Blush (a deep warm brown with pink undertones) with brush #116 to create
a soft contoured look.

OMG I love the new lippie! This is my ideal pink lippie. Im so excited that I feel I need back ups ASAP. lol Although the description or the promo pic do no justice to the real thing. The color is absolutely gorgeous!

You were so polite and patient. I wish I had that capability.

Viva Glam VI SE is the exact same colour as my natural lips...Yeah, my lips are THAT pigmented. XD

Which is funny, because my face is so pale...people constantly think I'm wearing lipstick.

Either way, I use this shade as a lip conditioner, because all it really does on me is moisturize. It disappears completely on me.

(for the curious, I have a scar on my lip from a childhood accident... sleeping, I fell out of a bunkbed onto my face, ripping my lip open.)
