Oh, I thought you had it and the swapped it. Lol.

 

[Piarpreet]

fanfare is sooooo close!

Thanks!! I cried it all off this evening over RL BS but it was pretty while it lasted. GoR I am not stressing over too bad. I did not like it the first time I wore it. It was just blah but the last two times have rocked my socks. I hope I do but I will not loose sleep if I don't..

I was finally able to find a 235 brush!

Thanks for all your advice ladies! I was able to find one at a mac counter about 25 minutes away from me. It was the last one ^_^

So guys I havent done my make up yet, but..... Pearl looks cyborg lol and rose quartz more like a blush than a highlitgher or an all over finish.

Also got natural light MSF. Lets see how this comes out. I'll try it on a full done face lata but just by playing i can tell pearl is too damn glittery and rose will be a subtle glowy blush

Try a very firm kabuki (179, 183), ideally with a flat top, for Pearl, so you can crash the glitter. If you do that, the glitter will turn into sheen. It works best if you only wear a tinted moisturizer or maybe F&B, otherwise you will just wipe off a (heavier) foundation if you apply too much pressure to smash the glitter. I hope you like the products.

Does your Pearl have a lot of copper in the center? Cos I think that's where the glitter comes from.....the outer ring should just be a finely milled neutral shimmer. You could try using it without the center for now......

Exactly. It's best to avoid the copper, but pick one with a lot of burgundy veining.

 

[ahoythere]

You know by saying that you are going to make her start buying one every week until she gets the one with all the burgundy right? LOL

Ok so i wore rose quartz today....

I used it all mixed as a glowy blush with the 168 and then with my ring finger i put some of the nipples as a highlight on upper cheekbone. I HAD to out some gold go lightly to contour cos this gaveme a wide chubby cheek look.

I'm wearing Hocus pocus and saffron on eyes and gem or roses on lips.

thanx guys. I have to confess though hahahah when I went out that evening, I could get a slight "robocop" effect on cheeks...maybe a lil too intense lol, cos im used to matte products but although beautiful, use with care!




PS: dont "rescue" the fallout when u get products with ur brush. Thats my take home message of the day hahah
