I tried Tropica wet today and used the blue in Bossa Blue in the crease and the brown underneath the eyes. I really like them now that I've used them again! I've also used my new MSF treasure So Ceylon for the first time and Mac you really need to bring this one back! I love love love it as a bronzer, it has the perfect undertones for me

Okay, so I did the Heroine l/l, Snob lipstick, &Impassioned lipstick combo today again. Loving this.

I've never been much to combine lip products and stray from using liners (just to save time) but this really makes me want to play around more. Heroine l/l &Snob are a pretty combination on their own without Impassioned. Here are pictures.

Heroine liner + Snob (It's slightly cooler toned in person)



Heroine liner + Snob + Impassioned

OK.... NOW I HAVE to try this ASAP! I'll sub my Impassioned Lipglass instead though. Even the H l/l and Snob combo is awesome!!! Thanks so much for sharing these pics! Now get into your stash and do some more! HeeHee You look so pretty!

 

[KrystalAnne]

Yowza, what a killer combo, guess I need to go buy Snob and Impassioned now!

Guess you do, huh?

Thank you!

MY Rio almast looks the same as yours! Nice Sweet Samba, I like that there is more taupe in it than bright pink. Did you try them?

I did - I posted about how I used them earlier on the last page.

Thank you! Oooh, your tropica has lots of pretty purple. How are you liking your SS with lots of the brown?

Yeah, I'm super happy with my Tropica and Rio. I'd have preferred a SS with more of the pink, but as that part especially is super pigmented I don't think it makes a major difference, I just have to be careful to pick up some of the pink to balance the brown when I use it. First time I tried it over foundation, I used a too dense brush and ended up with properly clown striped cheeks! Had no time to take it off and start over, so I quickly threw another layer of foundation over the top. Luckily that worked perfectly!!

Pretty! You look great with just a BB cream on!

@ PixieDancer (it's not letting me quote you for some reason)
Thank you so much! I want to see how it looks on you! I'm sure you'll look beautiful!

Now, what else can I come up with....

 

[vanessa1996]

Pretty! You look great with just a BB cream on! I love SS too! It looks great on you! The difference here is similar to the difference between my two. Totally justifies having them both Which one do you like more? I prefer the pinker one! I want to try this and see how I like it! Thanks for the idea! Aw I want So Ceylon, I've heard great things about it as a bronzer! I'd definitely pick one up if they brought it back!

I've been trying to pick which rio I like the best, but I guess the pink one is nice for a sublet look. Hahaha I love them both, though I'd regret buying the second one, but like you said, it justifes having both.

Yes, Dare to Bare is beautiful, but Tropica I do not like.

What magical mascara do you use?! You've got lashes for days.

 

[mirando]

my two rio msf, one of them is lighter and pinkier than the other, even though I swatched them both the same way. I bought two lust and returned them, they were just like my petticoat plus glitter, and my made my pores huge.

That's very interesting. Do you think they'll maintain that difference as you use them?

They're Real Benefit

I was JUST about to ask if that's the mascara you're using. It's one of my faves!

I hope so, I have use them both, and the pinkier is so natural and with a beautiful sheen, and the brown color is subtle. The darker looks like I am wearing a blush plus bronzer.

I'm neutral toned, too. I find that i can wear both warm and cool colors. But on my cheeks, it's better if they are not too strong or bright. Otherwise they make my skin look like the opposite tone - too strongly pink and my skin looks yellow, too strongly orange and my skin looks pink.

Adored is interesting because the orange part is quite orange, but blended with the pale pink, and having its pearl sheen, it is somehow a cool apricot, so i can tolerate it. And Lust, which is pink with a gold sheen, straddles both cool and warm, so it works on me. Rio was too brown for me, though. And i am trying to be strong and not go back for a mostly pink one... i have to hold firm to my resolve...

So now I finally have them and we can smell the wipes together.

I don't know how various wipes are priced in Europe. In the US the price per wipe of the small pkg. of MAC wipes makes them expensive. But the price per wipe of the big pkg. puts them close to most drugstore brands. Once i open mine i leave the sticky seal in and close it carefully, then store them upside down in a ziploc baggie, so they don't dry out too fast.
