(sorry I don't know why the quote thingy didn't work!)
it is like a bronzer (TO ME FOR MY SKIN )...I use the 182 to apply it on ...it kind of remind me of the "sunset" l'oreal bronzer I already have....but yeah save your money and get something else...it works for a few not all

Talking Re: WOC-Heatherette Overview
okay...here goes... i got sock hop l/g and alpha girl b/p and i love them both. i wear studio tech nc50 and sock hop on me gave that innocent-i'm-not-wearing-makeup-please-dont-give-me-a-ticket-officer look. LOL! i'm sooooo crazy about it. as to what everyone was saying about the BP...they're not meant to be bronzers at all. they're just meant to give an extra glow to your skin. i like them because, in my opinion, the foundation color they (MA) told me i needed is a lil too dark and it washes me out. the BP but some "life" back in your face. i also like the irridescent powder for the Fafi line in Sassd-Up. that with alpha girl look amazing ESPECIALLY if you're going for a more innocent look. it'll work with other looks too but that's the one i like the most. i tried on smoth harmony...it doesn't have any shimmer and only looks good, to me, if you're wearing alpha girl with it.

Re: WOC-Heatherette Overview
I went to my local store yesterday and I couldn't justify spending any of my money on anything besides Nighthawk/Front row.

Re: WOC-Heatherette Overview
I got Hollywood Nights, Sock Hop and Trio 1. I definitely want backups of Sock Hop next paycheck lol. I put Hollywood Nights and dabbed Sock Hop over it and it looked very pretty. But of course, being where I live and all (closed minded people) people where in complete utter shock I was wearing pink lip stick. I was like chill guys, I wouldn't wear it with I have on (brown Hollister outfit). I just tried it on because I friend asked to see it on me. But yeah I love it regardless.

Re: WOC-Heatherette Overview
I'm NC 45 and I got Trios 1 and 2, Lollipop Lovin, Sock Hop, and Smooth Harmony. My MA did a look with all of those (except trio 1) and I loved the look. Lollipop Lovin and Sock Hop gave me this perfect nude lip. I'm thinking of going back to look at the pencils because I didn't even view them. Plus, I need a base for Trio 1 if anyone has any suggestions.

Re: WOC-Heatherette Overview
So a;; I got was Sock HOp and Pink Pearl pig because I have been lusting ove it for a while. All the other lip stuff looked hideous and the pink ones I did like I decided I had to many pink lippies, I am yet to finish rocking chick! All the shadows were dupeable if you ask me!

Re: WOC-Heatherette Overview
I LOVE this thread! Us WOC should have a thread like this for every collection!

Too bad I have nothing to contribute, because I didn't even buy anything. lol. But it sure is helpful for when I do go see the collection.

Re: WOC-Heatherette Overview
I bought Lollipop Loving l/s, Trio 2, and Smooth Harmony BP and I had a bad feeling when it was on backorder and I really didn't even care.....like I could take it or leave it kind of feeling. I love the packaging, but I am not really feeling the products. Smooth Harmony will get some use, but I found the Trio just 'alright'. I'm a sucker for purples, but Cassette just isn't doing it for me. Trio one's standout color looked too much like Aquadisiac in the swatches for me to buy it. Lollipop Loving.....bah.....looked like I swiped one of those cheap peach-colored nail polishes on my lips. I actually wore Revlons Nude Lustre Superlustrous Gloss on top of it. That made it look miles better, IMO. All in all, yeah, whatever....

Sock Hop - Underwhelmed. However, I am going to keep trying it
Style Minx - LOOOOOOVE it!!
Lollipop Loving - Really like it as another nude lip alternative.

I am going back to get:
Hollywood Nights - I have to try this on and see how it looks
maaaaaybe Trio #1 - I don't know if I really need that green color
