Reel Sexy & Trés Cheek

i initially passed on magenta blush but your swatches make me want to grab them. I'll probably grab that and up the amp this friday :)

What did everyone think of the blushes??

Magenta is the only blush I liked out of everything that came out, including the Trés Cheek collection.

Trés Cheek was a huge let down :( It swatched much nicer on my arms than it did my face.. womp. I put up pics of everything on my blog.

aww thanks! I tried them on again today, and they all just look artificial somehow... I REALLY wanted MM to work, but it looked a mess. :'(
i guess i kind of know what you mean...i guess the colours of the blushes are not exactly natural tones (e.g. lavender, tangerine) but they are flattering all the same... :)

maybe mixing them with other blushes that you already have and like may help you like them more?

Ladies do you remember that Laura Mercier Rose Rendevous Face Illuminator? It sold out pretty fast which left a few people searching for it. I just found a blogger that compared the Laura Mercier to MAC's new Superb Extra Dimension highlighter and I must say, they look to be very comparable. Check it out...

This may help someone out who never got to get their hands on the Laura Mercier. MAC's is cheaper too.

I saw this blog post too and I was kinda glad sweet heat looks like superb and superb looks like rose rendezvous... now I don't need sweet heat, and i feel inspired to try rose rendezvous on the lids. I actually love glorify more than rose rendezvous, but rose rendezvous still has a place. It looks great with my cool toned pink and purple blushes. It's so funny how these things work. Similar things are popping up all over the place these days!

I'm sitting here right now contemplating on if I should get Glorify or not. I'm leaning towards yes because I don't have a coppery/bronzy type of highlighter. I've been thinking of getting Gold Deposit for a while but was kind of turned off by it when some have mentioned it's 'glitteyrness'. I have Rose Rendevous but of course it isn't like Glorify. I had Glorify in my cart just now and took it out.

Edited to add: I said I don't have any coppery bronzy type of highlighter but I forgot I also have MAC's Golden Bronze Loose Iridescent Powder that I somehow keep forgetting I have. Maybe I should pull this out instead of spending more money.

I just looovvvvvve the way that Glorify looks though!

I know kokofemme has a YouTube on dupes for glorify. I tried glorify today at night and omg it is gorgoes. I put on my arms décolleté a little on my cheeks nose. It just gives you this gorgoes glow. Seriously it does remind me of JLO .

i love it. it gives me the perfect glow. i don't do glittery and this is far from it! its a multi use product and i love that as well. glad to have finally found a bronzer type product that works for me 100% i agree that there are products similar in color, but the texture of Glorify is the real winner.

LOL I compared it today to the new sonia kashuk goddess bronzer"croc embossed style" and the are similar in texture except glorify is more bronzier. so maybe you could get that one instead. Check it out the next time you go to target or just get glorify.

Aaarrrgghh! Baby1black and sss215, ya'll are pushing me over the top! LOL!

I'm so glad I ordered this and equally glad that its not glittery.

Any of you order Havana? I have it and I don't like it. It does absolutely nothing for me. I want to love it. I am not impressed with all of the shadows in ED. My favorite so far are the black Rich Core, and Grand Galaxy.

I have Dark Dare, Rich Core & Lunar from the IED collection. I later ordered Havana based on rave reviews. It will arrive on Wednesdsy and I hope I like it. I also got Magenta blush with this order after having ordered five of the six blushes from Tres Cheek. I LOVE them by the way! I also got all three of the skin finishes from IED and they are beautiful. I also have three of the Estée Lauder highlighters, the colors of which almost mirror the IED skin finishes but the Estée formula is richer, more vibrant and one me, have longer wearing time.

I passed on Havana cause it looked like Center Stage from Peacocky. I wish it was a hint warmer. I love Grand Galaxy and was looking for a purple like it for a while.

Recieved my Glorify EDSF today and upon opening my black box, there seemed to be a golden glow and heavenly voices.

It's so pretty and I can't wait to try it on.
