Oh that's beautiful!
Thank you :) I just picked up 2 at that time and I still use them quite often. It is supposed to apply easily ( well the texture is not that easy to play with but it feels like cool water on the lids, that is nice when the weather is hot ),

Aradhana , that look you posted from Youtube is simple gorgeous now I have someone new to watch! Thanks. I need to label my stuff , because it sucks to wear something and not know what it is, lol I was on the internet over the weekend trying to find the name for a few lippies I had and two eye shadows where the name had rubbed off, because of this I started keeping some of my stash in their boxes but that takes up lots of space.
i'm so happy to have found her too because her skin tone is pretty similar...well, i think she's lighter, but has the same kinda pigmentation issues and undertone...i was going to try out her combinations of foundation - i think she mixed a bourgeois healthy mix (which i think are pretty pinky) with a mufe hd in one of her videos.

you know i've only had the rubbing off problem with my illamasqua products. i'm not quite ready to stick labels on them though...i'm relying on my spreadsheet since i don't have that many of the illmasqua items anyway. i don't keep anything in their boxes either due to space constraints as well - and i worry that i would use the boxed products less since they would be less visible.

ideally i'd have a shallow cabinet with clear shelving and drawers so that when open i could see everything at a glance, but when closed everything would look neat and tidy!

so yesterday i got a few items from the moody bloom collection - the two blushes and copper thorn fluid line. since i didn't buy any of the shadows, this morning i improvised with samoa silk and plum dressing as my replacements for artistic license and hidden motive.

i wore samoa silk all over the upper lid with plum dressing on outer third, super slick liner in defiantly feline on upper lash line, copper thorn on inner third of lower lash line, and chocolate shimmer ink gel liner (bobbi brown) on the out two thirds.

on cheeks i wore a mix of bred for beauty and worldly wealth. i found it was pretty intense even though i had used a very light hand, so i buffed it out with mineralize skin finish natural in medium dark. by the end of the day, i had only a little bit of bred for beauty lingering...i don't know if it was the hot weather or what!

i really liked copper thorn liner. in one spot i had smudged the super slick liner, and applying copper thorn over that worked much better than on its own--if you want an intensely sparkly line. i think for my purposes i could have just worn it alone (without the other liner underneath) to be a bit more casual.

Yes that is surprising lol !
You'll be proud of me Dominique & Calla too----I finally ordered Chanel JC, Malice. It's been on my wish list for quite some time.
I kept buying the latest JCs and ignoring beautiful little Malice. I got Innocence from the fall collection too but also promised
myself Malice.

Sounds like a really beautiful look Aradhana. Samoa Silk is so pretty. I like how you paired it w/Plum Dressing.

I'm posting late because the severe weather left us w/o a wireless connection for several hours. I continued w/the patriotic
theme today. I repeated the look that I wore on Wednesday because it was fun. The only thing that I changed was the
Midnight Blues fluidline----I used Chanel's eyeliner in Bleu Exquis. I wore RiRi Woo lipstick and tried my new Becca Opal
pressed powder highlighter which is gorgeous. I wore Dior's Sailor nail polish (Deep Royal Blue) and even applied the
striped nautical looking sticker on accent nails.

This look sounds gorgeous , I love samoa silk add in plum dressing pretty , and I have many fuchsia/hotpink blushes so I may have to try this color combination this week.

Oh I forgot to say my lip product, which was seeds of desire mattene... I think it's a good replacement for moody bloom! A lot darker, but same sort of shade language. ;) And anneri - I can't find ur original post but regarding the smoky neutral vs smoky blue...I have the same feeling with smokey/crazy eye makeup and lipstick. As soon as I put on a bold lipstick I feel like my face is advertising that I did my makeup that morning...but smoky eyes? Red eyeshadow? I feel like they just blend right into my face. 'No one will notice...' I'm weird!
