Same here....I always appreciate to hear your thoughts on the stuff you got
Yes, I really hope that it will work for me.Maybe not all the colors together in one look but one or two eyeshadows paired with cool toned colors should work.
I am glad to hear, though, that you liked the quad when you checked it out in store!
Sorry to hear that.Hopefully you will feel better soon and can play with all your new goodies
I just couldn' t resist these lipsticks
DG and KYY are sooooooooo right up my alley and after seeing all the pretty pics of ladies rocking RH and SP here on the thread I am super
excited for those too!
A primer should help.I think that a colored paint pot might work as well.Maybe Let' s Skate?
Or Good Fortune BB? Also a white base like Pure White chromaline, Chrome Angel paint pot or The Cool Elite BB.
Fingers crossed that you can bring out the colors more vibrant!
Please let me know how you like Jolly Good on you
I did, thanks! Happy to hear you are doing well.
I bet that will work for you, one or two of the Duchess colors with cool colors. From what you've described before, you have more leeway than I do with getting away with warm things, so I think you can pull it off! I'll look forward to hearing what kind of looks you try! Thanks for the suggestions for the quad I got. I have Let's Skate, Good Fortune, and Cool Elite, though I think the only one I have open is the Cool Elite. I might try that tomorrow if I can find it and will let you know if it helped. Sadly I've misplaced some of my goodies from the past year. Things have been a little crazy on my end. House is being changed around and some stuff has gotten lost in the shuffle as things move from one spot to the other. I just found my Red Balloon LS from Playland the other day.
I can't wait to hear how RH and SP work on you. I'll share my thoughts on DG and KYY (and Ruby) once I'm able to wear them. I'm feeling better but thought I would wait a couple more days to be safe.
I haven't worn Peaches and Cream yet, but I did wear Jolly Good MSF Sunday and today. I am in love! I was so not sure about that purchase, and really thought I shouldn't have let my MUA talk me in to it, but I am so happy I did! It actually works on me and doesn't look funny at all, as long as I don't load up my brush. I'm thrilled with it and wish I had gotten a BU. I've never tried contouring before so I wasn't sold on the idea to begin with (kind of a "I got by this long without it, why start now?" kind of opinion), plus anything brown or beige scares me, it usually looks so bad. Was also afraid it would read orangey on me, my coloring is so picky. It doesn't! It looks like I have a slight tan and gives my face more definition. I was shocked at how well the color blended into my skin alone. It looks natural. The highlighter section was a bit of a let down as it doesn't show up on me at all really, but since I just got back from vacation, my face is pinker than usual from the sun (even with sunscreen), so that might be part of it.
That was a really unexpected treat for me from this collection. I could see this being a near-everyday product for me from now on. Please let me know how you like it!
