Collection Superstition (Fall 2013)

[honey on boost]

[COLOR=0000FF]I finally got around to wearing Présage and I'm in love.  It is SUPER pigmented and just beautiful. I actually squealed at how pigmented it is, and thought I had used too much.  [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]I applied it with my MAC 130 brush, stippling first and then blending.  I topped it with Perfection Lumiére and the outcome was nothing short of[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]perfection[/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF].  I'm so excited to try Fantastic next, yet concerned that my love for these may send me back to Chanel to purchase others.[/COLOR]

This is not what I wanted to hear! (Ok secretly it is was I wanted to hear) I need I get my butt to Nordstrom to pick up a couple.

Full disclosure, I like to remove the hair on my face and I was due for a waxing. :lol: That may have been the problem. I tested presage on my bare face, so that didn't help either. At least when I tried Fantastic, I had foundation on. Why do I have hairs on my cheeks? Like, why? :lol:

Ugh! Me too it's like a peach fuzz type hair. You can't see It unless you're all up in my personal space but when I use a magnifying mirror it drives me insane.

I dun even wax my lips! Im too afraid lol

I can't go two weeks without doing mine. I must admit that it is the most painful place to wax other than a Brazilian (owwwwwie)

You can always try the hair removal cream. I stopped the lip waxing after the one time where the lady made the wax a little too dark and it left a little dark mark around my lips.

What brand do you use? I tried sensitive surgi cream and that stuff burned my face so bad.

 

[shontay07108]

I use Veet. My hair is so stubborn that I have to leave it on longer than recommended and its not comfortable after a couple of minutes, but that's what I have to go through. :lol: It's better than wax and I have to keep the facial hair at bay.

Thanks lovey

. I do adore this shade. I'm looking forward to using Fantastic but so far, Présage has my heart.

Oh HOB

Run don't walk! These blushes were made for your beautiful face!

Yep! But it's not any less painful.

 

[Medgal07]

What is this HOB & Shontay---Insomniacs Unite? What are you guys doing up?? Hell I love this!

 

[danirn16]

Danirn16. Did any particular colors appeal to you??

 

[josephine90]

I still cant find affinite anywhere online, is it on counters? i do not have a counter near me

I LOVE brights: Presage and Fantastic were my favorites

Although Destiny the neutral color looked amazing too!

 

[Sylvia60]

For me, Khaki---tan or green are alternative summer colors. I love a crisp white shirt w/a green or tan khaki skirt, shorts or slacks with bold gold
jewelry---super chic & sexy. Add to that, neutral eye makeup (the quad can provide that nicely) with a bold lip and it's ON!!! This is an amazing look
where I live. Oh and don't forget the tan kitten heel Jimmy Choo sandals.

I hope to wear Alchimie in a look that I described above one day soon.

A classy and easy to wear Summer look, Medgal07.
Have you tried ivory or creams instead of pure white?
And yes, this collection seems tailor-made for your look!

[COLOR=0000FF]     Thanks lovey:kiss: .  I do adore this shade.  I'm looking forward to using Fantastic but so far, Présage has my heart.[/COLOR]      [COLOR=0000FF]     I'm so glad you gave Présage another try! I'm a bit klutzy with the 188 brush and find that I have a little more control with the 130, but man does it grab the product.[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]     Now you have me eager to [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]try Fantastic, so I guess I will this [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]weekend.  [/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]Oh just you wait until you're an old hag like me.  Those pesky facial hairs seem to creep in during the night, uninvited, and set up shop in the oddest places![/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF] [/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]Okay, so Shontay you have to try putting your cream blush on before your foundation.  First put on your moisturizer/primer/CC cream, then your blush and then your foundation. [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]I recently started doing this upon Erine's suggestion and I'm born again----the end result is flawless and the blush looks as if it's radiating from within and not just slapped on top of [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]my foundation.  Absolutely amazing.[/COLOR]                          

Haha! I already have hairs in weird places. Hello, jaw and neck hairs. :lol: I have tried that before and it freaks me out. Tiny makeup related things freak me out and it's weird. I love the way cream blushes work when I put them on top of my foundation and then set with powder. I just don't think presage is the best color for me. Fantastic is my jam.

I'm up all hours of the night, as you can see! :haha:

Counters do have testers, but not the product to sell yet.

Us gals with dark hair kinda have to put up with some things like that

Yes.

Thank you Sylvia, I love ivory and cream too.

Shontay. I finally got around to wearing Fantastic. It's gorgeous, but it doesn't look as good one me as Présage. Nevertheless, I know I'll get a lot of wear out
of both. I guess that means that Présage is my jam?

I backordered affinite from NM. No one seems to have it in stock.

did u ever tried threading? Im thinking of that too!

This is what I do for my eyebrows. I prefer it to waxing. It also hurts, but there it no possibility of burning (which happened to me with wax at a salon). Fortunately my hair is pretty light, so hair control is not a big issue. Plus I have a regular threader (is that what they are called?) that I really like and go to every 2-3 weeks.
