Copperhead - I don't go clubbing either.. Lol !!! I don't know where I'll wear that glitter to but it looked pretty.. Haha !! And yes Zany looks pretty. I'm not expecting to get my shipment until probably mon or tues next week. It's takes sooo long for me to get my packages.. ugh and I just hate paying for expedite shipping

You know what? We don't need to go clubbing. Those glitters are so pretty we can wear them 'just because'. LOL! I mean maybe not to an office job or any place like that but surely we can wear them when we go out to other events/dinner/parties, etc. right?

Ooooooooooooo Yazmin Thank you

. .. . those are so pretty added a few more to my list!!! I hope they have a sale soon that includes everything

 

[Copperhead]

Yazmin! You did THE MOST! LOL! You got a lot of really nice shades! Thanks for the swatches.

 

[Copperhead]

Got my tiny order today. Girl's Bestie on the left, Skywalker on the right.





Girl's Bestie is a shimmery silvery white and Skywalker is a cobalt blue. It's even more blue in person. I couldn't capture it to get the real look. It's a gorgeous blue.

 

[Copperhead]

I forgot to say that those swatches are without any kind of primer or base. I'd probably put that blue one on top of NYX's Milk to really make it pop.

 

[BeautyByLele]

Cooperhead - those colors look pretty !!! I'm so excited to receive mine although they won't be here till Monday

 

[Copperhead]

I don't think crappy cell phone pictures can do this blue any justice.

 

[Richelle83]

I made a gigantic Christmas wish list lol. I already have a few but haven't bought any since. Thanks for the swatches Yazmin & Copperhead!

 

[Copperhead]

There are so many more that I want. Will not buy unless there's a sale though. The sales are just too good.

[Copperhead]

Those are some good swatches Lele! Mystique seems to look a teeny bit similar to Skywalker except Mystique has some shimmer right? Those glitters look really pretty too. Do you like your haul?

I'm very anxious for them to have another sale. I need more pigments and I need Bare and Lilac Individual Lip Fixes.

 

[BeautyByLele]

Thank you, yes you are right about Mystique and Skywalker they are very similar. Mystique has some shimmer while skywalker doesn't. You def don't need both. The glitters are soo pretty, when they have another sale you should get some . Its nice just to have a lil glitter in your collection if you decide you wanna add a lil ump to a look. I like my haul Girl's Bestie looks pretty but I dont know how I plan to wear that one. Maybe sometime this week I will play around with it. The lip mixes look pretty, too bad they dont come in tube form, I tend not to use lip products that come in pots. Girl you and me both cant wait for the next sale !!!

Next time they have a sale I'm going to get at least 2 glitters. That Silver Holographic glitter for sure. I'd prefer tubes for the lip items too but I just go ahead and dab my little lip brush in that pot and I'm good to go. What about MAC's Tendertones? Do you have any of them? I only have one. I don't have too many potted lip items. A few of their Beaucoup Lips look nice. They're the ones in tubes. There's a purple one called For True that I had been eyeing but never pushed the button on getting it. I'm not sure how I'm going to wear Girl's Bestie either but I'll figure out something. I know one thing for certain, I can use it as an inner corner accent or a lid color. Never above the crease! LOL! I just don't think white looks good above the crease. Colouredbeautiful on youtube did a nice white eyeshadow look with red lips tutorial. Check it out if you haven't already. It's also posted in the WOC+Red Lips thread here. Enjoy your goodies!

Lele, since we're talking about pigments, have you ever ordered samples from thebodyneeds2? I just received a few MAC pigment samples and they are currently running a promo where if you purchase 5 of thebodyneeds' lip lusters, you get 25% of your entire order by using the code Lippie. The promo runs thru tomorrow (7/10). I never ever thought to look at their house brand of products but in the sample order I received today they included a Lip Luster sample called Forget Him. It reminds me an awful lot of MAC's Show Orchid lipstick. So I was like, well hey, let me go look. So I go back over there, ended up buying 5 of the lip lusters and 3 or 4 of their mineral eyeshadows (pigments). One of the pigments called Blackened Violet is a weekly special for $0.01. Yes, 1 cent. LOL! The 25% off basically gave me free shipping but hey, I can deal with that. I can't wait to check these out because they look awfully pretty on the site. Also, they have glitters that look really nice too.

Yes I have three of the Mac Tendertones- the ones from the Shop Cook collection plus I have a Cargo lip gloss quad - Oceania. I actually had one of Mac Tendertones from a while ago Sweet and Nice - it was so pretty, I was sad when I finished that one..... that was before I knew about BU items.. lol !!! While they are pretty I dont reach for them often because they are in pot form. I do have a retractable lip brush so maybe I should just throw that in my makeup bag to make me more aware to use the potted lippies. That will be next week challenge for myself. I went and looked at some of those Beaucoups lippies and they look pretty . Also I looked at the lip fixes and I like the neutral one Bare and the purple one Whoa . I will try to google some swatches and check out YT to see if I can find some of these lippies in action.

Thanks for the video from Colouredbeautiful, that is a nice look with the white eyeshadow, Imma try it out soon ! I LOL at her warning about avoiding white eyeshadow above the crease.. that was funny and so true !!!!!!!!
