but I already had the new Bumble and Bumble Pret a Porter dry shampoo in my cart. A free bold, red-orange Dior lippie? Done. It probably cost more than the contents of my cart.

Crap. I take it that they aren't shipping the "preview" items to Canada then? That's just silly.

You look beautiful! What is the lipstick you have on, btw? I'm wearing Incandescent today as well. I put it over an orange blush (Mac My Paradise), which gives a really interesting sort of effect. I would say that I wear these powders more often than not. They really are like applying photoshop to my face.
Thank you!

I have on Sweet Succulence from MAC's Indulge collection. I agree with you about the photoshop effect, I notice the same for me! Pretty soon its almost time for me to buy the full-size powders, the shades in my palette are running out! Too bad Incandescent isn't available as a full sized powder.

The powders are wonderful. I didn't have many, but they've caused me to unload all but two of my MSF. There's just no comparison between the finish of the products.

I love Incandescent as well, but Luminous is also lovely. It doesn't quite have the same bright, pure light quality but I still reach for it often.

These blushes are tempting me. I've been doing good so far with the Low Buy I only got two cosmetic items this month. This is tempting me into a third piece.

So for the excitement of ordering my Luminous Flush I decided to whip out my Ambient Lighting palette for my look today. I used Dim Light all over. Radiant light was used as blush. Incandescent as my highlight. I'm happy with how it all comes together and can't wait for Luminous Flush to arrive to add to my Hourglass stash. Happy Friday y'all! :heart:

I just ordered Luminous Flush! I was torn between that and Dim Infusion and wanted to try the formula before getting both

Thank you! It's funny, she says that the blushes aren't incredibly pigmented, but they look very pigmented to me. Perhaps they sheer out more, as the Lighting Powders do. Judging from her swatches, the texture looks similar to the ALPs. I definitely want me some.

Thanks!
Hm, they look pretty light. EG looks more like a highlighter than a blush to me. I really like Dim, though.

Thanks to a kind Specktra member, I was able to get Dim Infusion and Luminous Flush. I'm a light blush fan, so I'm not worried about the pigmentation. The swatches look like they have plenty of colour to me. Besides, if they're anything like the powders, the beauty of the finish isn't always captured in pictures.

I'm pleased to have resisted Radiant Magenta - it was a near thing! If I love the swatches, I can always get it later in the year if I really want it.

Sorry, it was rougedior but it sold out after only one hour when somebody posted code on facebook and within ten minutes it sold out :( I heard VIBs were able to use the code as well, so that's why it went so fast, but it's not confirmed =/ I can scratch those two from my list, not really fan of those colors xD
Thanks for letting me know... At least I'm in the loop! Heehee

So Sephora confirmed that only rouge was able to use the perk. Kinda bummed that it sold out so fast then, I mean how many Rouge's is out there? They should have multiple fullsizes to choose from, then it would be much more fair :(
