That's how I feel about Outre. That's hilarious to me b/c I started out hating it. I bought a BU because I don't want to be without it. If they ever repromote I will buy 2 more! It's the perfect "brown".

how are you using it? In the crease? I feel the same way about it and carbonzied. goes on brown, stays on brown. LOL

Does anyone else have a problem working with outre? I love the color, but I find that its hard to even pick up on my brush? did I just get a dud?

it might be a batch... cos mine its really easy to pick up and quite pigmented. A lil harder to blend cos its matte...but no problems. My saffron sucked...when everybody else is happy so i think every once in a while u dont really get ur money's worth.

I am sort of surprised these e/s are still in stock. They were all like butter for me. Easiest mattes I have ever worked with (except for M2 of course). I loved all the e/s, even the creamy bisque which I think was listed as a lustre? I usually hate that formula.

Sadly, I have yet to touch my quad.

I am also impressed with the shadesticks--a lot easier to work with for me. I think maybe one I had from before was either dried up or a dud--these were very easy to apply and no creasing for me. Butternutty and Cakeshop. I would love to get more of them now.

Me too! It's a really great color. I don't remember wearing anything so many times in a week.

In other news, I picked up Evil Eye Quad today. I know many people don't like it but I'm just now getting into the smoky eye thing. I'm still hesitant about the look on me but I thought this quad might be a nice to ease myself into that look.

On a whim, I tried out Curvaceous lip gloss yesterday and I have to say, I'm now wondering why I didn't grab it to begin with. It's beautiful. It reads fairly neutral on my lips, but just a bit mauve. I'm so glad that I got it before everything from the collection is gone. I also have to say that I am still thinking of going back for both Prince Noir and Creamy Bisque. I have similar shades, but the formulas on these seem so nice... This seems to be one of these collections that continues to grow on me...

I've got to report that I had a mad attack last week and bought up 3 of the shadesticks (of course they were out of the ONE that I went in meaning to get which was Street Cool)....
AND I LOVE THEM ALL! They are so smooth and buttery, and I find make a great uncomplicated base that really allow the shadows to grab on and stay on. I also find that when i am using a darker paint pot (like Hyperviolet) that they are great to use on the inner 3rd, so I don't have to haul out another lighter pain pot and another brush, etc. And they are all quite glowy so they really open up the eye when used this way.

My fave is Heirloom. I think for my neutral-fair complexion, hazel eyes and dark brown hair it has just the right amount of neutral pink, with a topical cool sheen of silvery shimmer to keep it from looking like I have allergy eyes. it is beautiful on its own, but also great under so many eye shadow colors.

I totally recommend these!!!!!!

that gloss was on my list to begin with but i skipped because i felt that it wasn't special enough.... maybe i should take another look at swatches! although that said i do have far too many glosses already! argh!

It is a pretty nice color, I bought it to cool down some lipstick colors I have. But if you have too many, I have a feeling that similar colors will come out with the holiday and boxing day collections.
