Yeah, you know who you are, pushing me over the limit of what I should buy. lol

 

[Shypo]

I've ordered from Izzy's before with no problems at all - except that they're often out of stock of what I want. But every now and again I score something I've really been wanting......they're worth a look!

 

[User38]

my Dad's father's name was Izzy.. lol

mine too

 

[User38]

you gals..lol.

I have Exquise.. and I have not worn it yet.. --now the hunt begins for those who want it and didn't get it.. If I find any in DF I will pick up and post info.

 

[Winthrop44]

What is Izzy's really though? With all the product they have it almost seems CCO-like, doesn't it?

For some odd reason I keep pronouncing this Exsqueeze! Maybe because it is squeezing the money out of my wallet??

Chanel MA~May I help you?
Me~Yes, excuuuse me. Do you have any RA's of Exsqueeeeze? If so please extinguished the money out of this credit card before I expire!
Chanel MA~My pleasure...

 

[Shypo]

Truer words were never spoken!!! I thought it was 'ex-squeeze' too......what, is there an 'a' on the end? Ex-squeeze-eh?

 

[Miss QQ]

I pronounce it as ex-squeeze too.

 

[ElvenEyes]

I found a website online that you can listen to pronunciation and it is:

Exqeeszeh

lol I just want the darn thing!

I got my RCS Antigone today

. It's more pigmented than Monte Carlo, but color wise, it looked kinda the same on me... with Antigone leans a little towards pink. I'm going to try it out for a couple of days and then make some comparison swatches

Well, really, ex-squeeze would be more like you say the word in daily use (in French). There's no need to add the extra syllable.

Good! Then I am going to keep calling it ExSqueeeeeze!

Yay! Enjoy your new lipstick! I'm sort of wishing I have bought MC instead of Antigone, because I will wear MC more. Look forward to your swatches.

 

[cutemiauw]

^^ Thank you! So far I'm still undecisive of which one I like best. Okay, I'll do the swatches

 

[Bonitinha]

Astrid -- glad you got Antigone -- can't wait to see it on you!

 

[cutemiauw]

Okay, here's the lips swatches, clockwise from top left corner:
bare lips, RCS Antigone, NARS Wonder, RCS Monte Carlo



I was actually surprised that on the close up picture I could actually see the stark difference between Antigone and Monte Carlo. Antigone is definitely much more pigmented!

*wondering if I should send the whole face picture too*

Okay, here goes... Forgive my lighting and my self-taken picture skills

L - Antigone, R - Monte Carlo. Which one do you like better?

 

[Anneri]

Monte Carlo!!!

I love your hair, Astrid. I wish I had hair like that!!!

 

[Winthrop44]

Beautiful hair and great self picture taking skills. Another vote for Monte Carlo here.

Such pretty pictures! I have to to vote for Antigone! I have Monte Carlo and love it, but Antigone is so pretty and has a lovely unique plum look to it that is both soft and very flattering on you! In fact, it is now going on my wishlist!!!
