LMD84, the glossimers are my absolute favourite lip product! Mine is just one opinion, but I do find they stay on really well, don't feel tacky (though they do feel a bit heavier than lipstick, to be expected though) and they don't dry out my lips. I always have at least two in my purse. Since my lips are quite pigmented, I can wear even some of the sheerer shades on their own, but there are a few that are so sheer that I regretted getting them. Having said that, I have gotten more use out of my glossimers than any other lipgloss or lipstick and have basically gotten to the point that I really don't bother getting gloss from any other brands anymore.
thanks for your thoughts. i think i'm going to have to get one - so now i just have to pick which colour!

Add me to the Glossimer addict club. I love them so much!! I have been wearing Pensee every day since I got it.

Also wearing the Lilium quad and Rose Platine pencil today. LOVE! And my love affair with the bronzers continues.

I recently got my first Glossimer (Myriade) and I'm thrilled with it! I think part of their magic is that you can't actually get a whole lot on the wand (less than other glosses), so you have to kid of pat it on rather than swiping. I'm convinced that somehow makes it last longer, because I was quite shocked to see a gloss that stuck around so long... Of course, it's also possible that I just got a tube that's strangely malfunctioning...

LOL Katred no it's not malfunctioning! I love how you don't get too much product on the wand. Although it still ends up goopy on the threads which drives me batty!

Yay Nora! So glad you finally get to get your Summer stuff!

Shontay you should call the girl at your counter and have her hold it for you so you don't have to stress! I'm sure she'd be happy to.

Well I tried all of my Summer stuff today (except for Morning Rose). I'm very happy with everything although I'm questioning needing so many greens in my collection since I don't think it is the most flattering color on me. Doesn't look bad I just know there is better. Love Rose Platine to line under the eyes and I also used it on my waterline which is very subtle. I layered Aurore over Peregrina RC. I LOVE Rose bronze! Can't wait to play more with it. I only used it today, no blush. I took some quick pics before I left for work so hopefully I'll get them up tomorrow.

[/quote] From all the looks I have seen from you I thought the ones with green were fantastic, I think it suits you very very very well. So to me it sounds like a great purchase :)

Aww thanks girls! I always feel like warm browns are best to bring out my eyes but I suppose we need variety right? That's why we're junkies! Can't wear the same look every day!

I truly am getting frustrated with Chanel's obsession with greens lately but I suppose I never would have experimented with them so much if they hadn't been in my beloved quads! I'm excited about the new Le Metier de Beaute Kaleidoscope coming out any day and guess what...it has a green in it! UGH oh well LOL.

Christa, check the colors of the Kaleidoscopes to make sure you don't already have them - one I thought I wanted had colors I already have......do you know where it is launching? Bergdorf's? Mabye that's what I'll try to get during my trip to CA next week if I can get pooter-head to drive me there......more on pooter-head in the Ratonas thread.

I think the new foundations are what the Pixiwoo girls were referring to when they said that the Prolumiere is being discontinued....so I'm sure we'll see more on that!!

I also wonder when the new velvet lippies will launch?

^^ Are the velvet lippies coming in Fall? What about the highlighter duo thing they were using in the Chanel fashion shows? It was that pale pink/cream duo. I think it said July but not sure . . .

Hi lunadestella - it's a Le Metier de Beaute Kaleidoscope eye kit - they're wonderful!! Pricey, but the shadows are outstanding. They're buildable, especially together - they're designed to layer.
