I am not sure as I don't have FMP neither have i swatched FMP, sorry

Just wanted to add that the swatches posted were all dry and without any kind of base/primer. With that in mind, they can only get better and improve as in general they really performed well on their own enhance-free

Thank you, Debbs!

Yes, CCBs are a great base for MES.My fave is Luna

Some cream color base as a primer prior to applying the eyeshadows plus spritzing your brush with some Fix+ usually makes a world
of difference for me with mineralized eyeshadows. CCB combined with Fix+ allow them to really pop plus control the glitter factor!!! I swear by Shell CCB

It is my most used brush esp for mineralized e/s. If funds allow, I was thinking of getting another just to cut down on cleaning because I use it so often. The 287 is my work-horse and I love it!!!! It works wonderful with the edes as well. I recently bought the suggested brush 235 for the edes and I still find myself reaching for the 287 instead.

another item added to my my list

I've been wearing my Heavenly Creatures haul for the past few days and I don't know if anything can top it! I have fallen in love all over again. I wore Magnetic Attraction coral and gold parts on the eyes, Ring of Saturn cheeks, Light Year highlighter and Meteoric CSG. Next day the same cheeks and highlighter and eyeshadow except I used more of the pink in Magnetic Attraction and went with Galaxy Rose CSG. I still don't know what I'm getting with this collection.

Thanks for all the pics! Exotic Ember looks very yellow here. I'm wondering if it would work as a highlighter. Maybe for use with more orangey blushes.

Debbs thanks for all the swatches!! Your time and dedication is appreciated ... I truly have no idea what I really want from here besides the brush.. I may do just one of the MSF's, a lippie and maybe a shadow... I still have my shadows from Heavenly Creature that I hardly use but I love the look of em.. Since Gold Deposit is permanent is it one of those must haves for your stash?

I wonder if Rio will be like Goldstone from Semi Precious?! Love that MSF!

I think gold deposit is gorgeous!!! imo, I fell in love with it when I swatched it in store a couple weeks ago.

highlighter I think....

This swatch has me thinking I should get Hot Night. Thanks for all your swatches Debbs.

Im really disappointed in exotic ember. It's off my list

Adored imho

Thank you very much.

Does anyone know how much the 159 is going to cost? Closer to the 187 or the 188? Thanks.

Thank you, Debbs!

Yes, CCBs are a great base for MES.My fave is Luna

I must try this. Does it extend the wear time?? I like Seaside but haven't tried Luna. On my lids they are a hot mess. I really should experiment more with cream cheek products though.
