I'm happy for your Strawberry Malt lg BU. I can't wait to wear mine either.

What a lovely gift to your niece, elegant! I'm sure she will love Stay Sweet lg.

I put it on last night with my nightgown

 

[hazyday]

Well, I'm about to order Cheers My Dear. So much for staying away from AG.

@ Choosen One---I was surprised I loved Boyfriend Stealer so much! It was the one item that kept going on and off my list, and I'm SO glad I got it in the end. Such a beautiful deep purple, and not very sheer on me at all!
I tried BS after reading your above post and it is so not sheer! I wore it with NightMoth lip pencil and Flight of Fancy lipglass and it was bam---right there in full force---not sheer!

YES!!! I wore it with the same liner and gloss and loved it! Also wore it blotted down with Nicki 2 gloss over it and loved that just as much. I don't get how it's coming up so sheer on some people, but it's a beauty in my book!

all that was taken was my BB lipstick and an 'empty' gift card but luckily i had just used it. very odd. this was at my son's Valentine's event. who steals stuff at a preschool party. (and it wasn't a child) i had my bag next to me on the adult table the whole time. someone must have brushed up against me and went for the gift card and took the lipstick too.

someone had contacted me in pm about BB but thank you!!

=(
That really really sucks.
I hope you get your replacement soon. I'm glad that they didn't take anything else! Being stolen from really sucks.

i did a look with the spoiled rich quad today...i used gravel over graphblack liner, which i used to do a little cat eye. i used spoiled rich on the lid over a very light application of imaginary, and a mix of ron ron and spoiled rich in the crease. pin up purple in the outer corner. the lower lash line i lined very close to the lashline with spoiledrich/pinup purple.
the rest of my face was simple -- i used stark naked blush and daddy's little girl over some balm, and ran out the door! it was the first time i had used gravel, and i was pleasantly surprised with it. overtop of the black liner, the rich blue/purple undertone came through instead of the grey.

So glad you found your BB!!!!

What do you think of that Mouche De Beaute? I was surprised by the fall-out. My chest was all glittery. At any rate, I think I like it better than the Chanel Poudre highlighter---I think it performs better as a highlighter. BTW, I still purchased Flatter Me in spite of having both Chanel highlighters. I just adore them---what can I say?

you light it better than chanel poudre? why? ok, I'm really going to ignore this. I can't afford it. I'm not even going to look at it. ~shuts eyes real tight~

 

[Prettypackages]

Rascal!!!!

What?! ~insert halo smiley~

I feel the exact same way about boyfriend stealer. I called it plum, but it is a really pretty deep purple. this color is gorgeous and I'm so glad it's one I can just throw on when I want. I didn't get FOF... hmmm... should I? hopefully it is sold out. LOL
My simple toned down look with this was hot Sunday. LOL

that sounds pretty, I think I'm going to break down and get this.

lol...your posts about boyfriend stealer and poised are breaking me down too. luckily for me boyfriend stealer is sold out!

 

[Medgal07]

did a light day look with it today. TM, Flatter Me, poised blush, Boyfriend Stealer and just Eyeliner and mascara. So no gloss. I really liked it. It is like a true plum on me. I think Liba described it perfectly. I think I looked pretty cute. I'm going to repeat it tomorrow. LOL

Now that's the spirit Prettypackages----you've channeled your inner vamp.

I'm still looking for mine.

 

[Medgal07]

I got lord it up, so pretty I was hoping for the one w little hearts but they didn't have it : ( they were pretty much sold out of everything there, good thing I ordered online.

Awesome! So did I and I love it. It goes nicely with neutral/bronzy eye looks. I did get one w/hearts via pre-order. It is a good thing that you ordered online. When I went to the launch party I was with the first group to go in. I'll have to remember that for future launches---schedule my visit for the first 1/2 hour to have access to everything before it sell out.

 

[Medgal07]

You might have other deep colors in your stash to go with BS, but just in case I checked the MAC web site & it is available. I had forgotten that it was from Glamourdaze---feels like that was years ago but not so.

CmD is super pretty on the cheeks

I got it with the TT collection and have used it a lot on my cheeks since then.You can also mix it with a bit MM shine or
P+P Skin Smoother to create a shimmer cream.

Cheers My Dear might not be too bad on our breakfast cereal… Not!

Enjoy your goodies, llinah!

I got Veronica's Blush pearlmatte and Cheers My Dear pigment as well. I will receive Lucky In Love on Friday.

[Medgal07]

am I making any sense lol?

Naugtyp I had no idea! I thought you were MIA because your were studying.

I hope you're feeling better

You'll probably enjoy your AGs items more when you're totally back to normal health. Hang in there!

 

[Medgal07]

Making me want... LOL. You and GlamQueen 21 are my fav enablers of WOC. LOL.

For me Pin Up Purple is the reason I will buy it. Decisions ><

 

[Medgal07]

Yeaaaa. I think I'll stick to saving my $$ for Veronicas Blush PM & maybe a l/g. Thanks Erine.

totally w/Erine on this one! On the other hand, VBPM is lovely and would be more suitable. I love it.

 

[Medgal07]

Have fun hauling!! I hope you get everything that you want.

This would be my 2nd time splurging out on a collection, the last one I splurged out on was the shop cook collection my bank balance is going to HATE me
