Sorry - I can't figure how to delete these two posts...
Finally, a swatch on fair skin! Thank you so much
I have no idea why I don't own Paris, but sadly I do not.If you have 22 Paris - any chance you can do a comparison? I'm curious to see the two side by side!
Thank you!
I just looked at your blog and I just wanted to say it is very lovely. I think you just convinced me that I need Radiuse.Right there with you. I'm really not a fan of a lot of bright colors--like green, purple, teal. I have palettes/shadows in some of those colors--but I never use them. It's just not me.
Oh, thank you so muchI just looked at your blog and I just wanted to say it is very lovely. I think you just convinced me that I need Radiuse.
Totally agree--Rouge Rubis is positively stunning. I thought, oh, it's just another red. Nope, most definitely not.I got to see everything but the es palette which is no where to be found.
They were sold out of Desiree but I got to see the display tester. Its pretty but a bit too slight brown darker crimson. I wanted something different in the shade I guess. The np are beautiful. Fatal is really really pretty as was the other Ido but did not get either. Fatal is a light slight red mulberry plum. And, I cannot believe that I forgot to swatch the rose lp
It's funny, because I find that colours that don't have some level of brightness wash me out. I always need something saturated, even though it's not something I'm supposed to be doing at my age.Me too. I never do bright colors....or much color, just smokey eyes.
It reminds me a bit of Rivoli, which I love. Rivoli could be slightly darker. Maybe it is closer to NARS Amsterdam since they have the same matte finish. I need to see La Desiree in real, it looks very pretty.
Age shouldn't matter. Age doesn't matter to me. Do whatever you what. There really are no "rules" in my opinion. Do whatever makes you feel (and look) the best. I mean, I wouldn't suggest wearing black with navy--that's a no-no to me. LOL. But when it comes to makeup, just have fun. If you like color--go for it. Or glitter. I wish I could be so bold--I just don't feel it's me. But everyone is different. They wouldn't make colorful eyeshadow if people weren't going to wear it.It's funny, because I find that colours that don't have some level of brightness wash me out.

Shockingly, eSabrina's IdOs are in lovely condition so I guess there's hope. Crossing my fingers you get a good one!I'll be anxious to hear what you think of it in person Miss QQ. I'm looking for some fall ls shades that are a bit muted/softer without being too brown.
Here's Sabrina's review of the IdOs. I hope my Initiation doesn't arrive as a hockey puck because I do like the color.
