Erin, you coulda sold me on Undercurrent a lot sooner had you said it was a mermaid in a stick. LOL

MERMAID IN A STICK!!!

 

[dxgirly]

I thought I lost my Undercurrent the other day. I searched through all of makeup stuff and was having a mini panic attack, So I convinced myself I'd just buy another with this collection on Thursday.

BUT turns out it was hiding at the bottom of my purse with all of my pens.

Not sure about Moonlight Night :/ I think in some swatches looks beautiful but in some others looks too black and not very sparkly... I like sparkly :|

Anyway, I think I will get it... and HBC blush

and Teddy!!

it's got a dark base but it's got plenty of teal shimmer - not glitter chunks, but not smooth frost shimmer either. 'More of a crystalline shimmer. You'd need to use it wet to get the maximum out of it. Also, like TFC, this pigment is very opaque, like a velvety base. You couldn't really use this sheer.

I'm saying this right now: I will take/buy any bags that someone doesn't want!

Great list, Salina!
I decided to check The Faerie Glen. Wish me luck!
Speaking of backups, I have to back up my Viva Glam Cyndi l/s before it's too late.

Why do we fall in love with the LE?

Good luck!!! I bet it'll look great on you!

I need to b/u Cyndi too. And I should pick up the gloss. Probably around Christmas. I love that red! And it's for a good cause!!!

Another question, ladies: my best friend loves all things Scottish but isn't into make-up. Nevertheless I want to give her one of the single e/s. She's blue-eyed and red-haired - a very fiery red. Which one should I get for her?

Good description, Erin! LOL
My current wish list includes:
The Family Crest pigment
Undercurrent pearlglide eyeliner
Black Swan pearlglide eyeliner
The Faerie Glen l/s
Glamora Castle e/s
Brush set

I'm still having a fun making a list. What's on your list, everybody?

^Good choice on the pearlglides! They are amazing! They make my eyelids swell up so I cant wear them

but am excited for those who can wear them cause they are stunning!

Rockers and Reelers eye-palette
Play it Cool eye-palette
Courting Lilac l/s
Gone Romancin d/g
The Family Crest p/g and/or Moonlight Night p/g. Still not sure if I only want one or both. I already have enough blackend eye shadow/piggy's but Erin said to not pass up MN n TFC looks amazing lol.
MAYBE the Teddy Keychain. He's so cute n it goes to a good cause!
Then the Cool Pigment set in Nov.

I might get a Viva Glam V lipstick. I dont really want the lipglass and it will still go to a good cause. It's such a gorgeous nude. Or Viva Glam Gaga. Not sure what one I want. Anyone know how much longer VG Gaga be available?

Edit: I've decided to get the warm piggy set too

that pink metallic one is calling to me! The gold one too

 

[singer82]

Oh, no! I'm sorry that you cannot wear pearlglides. Are you allergic? Do you get the reaction from any color? It sucks, but I'm sure there are plenty other products which suit you more and make you gorgeous!

The only allergic reaction I get from any beauty product is from the eyelash curler. I cannot use the regular metallic one. My eyelids get swollen if I use them. I can only use the gold one.

I've heard Viva Glam Gaga and Cyndi will be available till February 2011. Don't wait too long if you want a backup.

Uh-oh... My eyes already tend to water, or at least, they seem to get easily irritated, particularly in the corners. Maybe I'll try out one of these before committing to buy a bunch...

 

[banana1234]

they seem to be fine on the upper lash line! you should def get undercurrent cos it will sell out so quick i think

 

[LMD84]

i have watery eyes and by using teh pearlglides on my upper lash line i am fine

and i agree that i think it will be te first to sell out

 

[Soul Unique]

I think i'll be doing the same, my eyes get watery too!

I would say Glamora Castle or Golden Crown.
