I've had some of those bad boys for AGES and they are still creamy and wonderful!! And at around $5 or less a piece they put my dried out UD pencils to shame!!


I have three of them -- Midnight Cowboy, Morphine (same color/finish as Asphyxia), and Delinquent -- but haven't used them for a couple months. I'll have to check them out and see if they've gone the same way.

Aww Grandad Frost! That's adorable! I tend to call him Father Christmas rather than Santa myself

BTW I tried the ETG polish on this evening and it went on ok. It is a bit thick and it's better to work quickly, but it's not bad IMHO. I would rather have this polish be thick than thin. I love the colour it's so sparkly!

Anybody try layering ETG over a good black polish to see if the problem with opacity is worked out? Don't we mainly want it for the glitters???

My GD lippie arrived! I love it so far. Thank you so much Yazmin for the CP.

GD may rapidly become my MLBB favorite. I am seriously contemplating BU and I just don't usually do that for lipsticks. I think Naked Paris was the last lippy I got BU for.

That's Epiphany (or the day after).
And for us Anglo-phones, that's basically the Twelfth Day of Christmas

Glad i'm getting MAC cosmetics and not 12 Lords a-leaping, 11 Pipers piping, 10 Drummers drumming, 9 Ladies dancing, 8 Maids a-milking, 7 Swans a-swimming, 6 Geese a-laying, 5 Gold Rings, 4 Colly Birds, 3 French Hens, 2 Turtle Doves, and a Partridge in a Pear Tree... 'cuz there just wouldn't be enough room for them all in my apartment!

I love how we can learn about other cultures here plus discuss makeup. Gotta love technology at times.

Quote: To me, Innocence is a more coral version of Marquise D', which is my favourite l/s ever! If I ever come across a DA then I'll grab it for you - it's such a great deep red!

I don't know all the history behind it, I just went by what my parents told Although I just googled Epiphany and I found that it is in Russia on 19 of January..

Tink tree, Juicy tree, and family tree. Sorry for the OT pics but had to share since we are talking about christmas!! Its my favorite time of year, my family and I are usually together for Christmas eve, since most of us work on holidays ( mom and bro at hospital and me at hotel). Its a good thing I only have to buy presents for my two brothers, everyone else is done!! So hopefully I get all the MAC i want =)

 

[Michelemu21]

Okay. Please excuse how absolutely horrible I look. I have to take photos by the window for them to show up properly and I only had 4hrs sleep last night so the light was blinding me hence the horrid face and inability to smile, lol. In the photo I'm wearing GlamourDaze l/s, Small Vanity blush and Whisper of Gilt EDSF on my cheek bones, all on NC15.

That is a fantastic lipstick color on you!

 

[Michelemu21]

A Natural Flirt is definitely a HG shade on me. I've only had it a couple of weeks and I've already worn through the pattern and almost the entire swoosh. Why, oh why, did they make these so tiny?!

Glad to hear you like it. Mine is coming today!
