I haven't owned a multiple in forever. I think my last was Palm Beach or something like that. Years ago. I swatched these the other day in Sephora. They didn't have them all (the browner ones) but I liked it. The price put me off for some reason. If you know me well enough you know I choose the strangest times to be cheap. I think I'll go in tomorrow and actually buy one, though.

Hey Missy....your pic is beautiful as always! Love the lip color on you. I've missed you

I agree. I thought they were a bit pricey for what they are.

Hey, elegant! Thanks. I've been quiet but I've been creeping around a bit. :lol: now I'm rethinking getting a multiple. I really don't need any of the colors. Might get a mufe blush instead. Whoops. :lol:

I've also been torn between Matte Multiple.. Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge.. or one of the new MUFE HD cream blushes.. le sigh. Or Creme de Chanel? Or Illamasqua? The only cream blush I've tried is the Tarte one and I hated the sticky texture.. bleh. I only want to get one for summer though and I can't decide. Life is so hard..
Thoughts, @elegant-one? I will probably get whatever one you say.. haha!

 

[shontay07108]

I've tried all of those and I think mufe is definitely the best. Lightweight and melts into the skin. Just came from sephora and skipped the multiples. Actually I skipped everything but I have a list in my head of what I'll get next week. I've decided this is the week for new clothes. Ha!

Always Chanel! Their creme blushes are divine. The 2 new ones are beautiful.

Nars Siam - A Beautiful Rich Pinked Coral






Mine came stuck to the lid of the tube...thats why there is a hole in the top of the product ;( It doesn't want to wind up or down correctly.

Elegant, do you wear them on your lips as well? I never had a Multiple, I guess they're supposed to be for cheeks & lips?

Yes, I did use them on my lips. Its very nice for a quick look. They are matte but not dry looking on the lips.

That sounds great. Laos looks really beautiful in your pics

I forgot - I tried the water with Siam (lightly) like she did in the video & it really works quite nicely. Now I'll have to see if it has staying power that way.

I LOVE Siam on my lips!

I used a dusting of Hourglass Diffused Ambient Powder all over my face & lightly over Siam on my cheeks & it looks so soft & beautiful. If you are pale like me, you NEED Diffused! It makes your skin look flawless.

Laos is beautiful. Actually Laos & Siam are both very very pretty on in person. Not sure if I'll get Anguilla...but maybe

 

[shontay07108]

I remember using the multiple I had on my lips and it was pretty nice. Except, there was a faint smell of crayon and that wasn't so much fun. :yuck:

So, that made me go smell my new matte ones

nope, I don't smell anything weird. I hate that crayon/plastic smell...gag

Thanks so much ladies!! I really appreciate both of your opinions. I decided to go with Chanel for now and wait on MUFE since I haven't seen them on any neutral-cool fair ladies yet and wouldn't know what color to pick.. And the Chanel counter is way closer.. haha. LOVE MUFE though so I'm glad to hear the formula is up to standard. Definitely on the list!

 

[elegant-one]

I wish the other 3 ambient powders I wanted would just grow legs and walk to my house (without me having to pay them of course).. especially Diffused but Dim and Mood can come as bodyguards. The blushes can tag along too.. strength in numbers.

That combo sounds gorgeous!!

You crack me up

You'll get them eventually.

Did you read about what others thought of the new Chanel creme blushes? Pinkdollface & I believe it was Krystalanne? (can't remember now) that loved them.

I definitely sniffed the testers for the new ones today and I didn't smell anything. New and improved, I guess. Hooray for that.

The compact mufe blushes are so much better than the original ones. Easier to blend. You look like you're lit from within and they're so pigmented. A great range of colors, too. I have two of the Chanel cream blushes and I adore those, too. You can't go wrong really.

What can I say.. I'm just impatient.. haha! Generation of instant gratification and blah blah blah. But I'm glad I'm spreading it out so I can get used to the nuances of one before trying another. And it'll give me a chance to use some other things up. AND of course it will keep my wallet happy. So I'm sticking to my promise of waiting until the next VIB sale to add on.

I've read nothing but positive reviews of the Chanel creme blushes.. all I needed was a little more nudging in that direction. I also hit one of my #lowbuy goals (losing 5 pounds) today so I qualified for my first reward item! Coincidentally there's a Chanel counter on the walk home..

I picked up #64 Inspiration. Just tried it on and it's the perfect color for me, adore the texture too. Exactly what I wanted in a cream blush. Thanks again!
