I'm still on the fence about the stylo yeux. I really want it to be white gold and not gold but it looks like it's showing more gold on fairer skin. My skin is more light-medium so I'm not sure how it would look. Anyone else have it/have any thoughts on it?

It is the same color as the liquid eyeliner Plantine. I used a MAC fan brush over the highlighter powder, and it was fine for day time. It depends on the lighting if the silver or gold pop out more. It does not look gold in the pencil. I have gold, and this does not look like it at all.

Thanks so much! That makes me feel better about it. Into the cart she goes... ;-)

The red lipstick is not pink, it is a red-orange. Volage is a sheer nude. Barely shows up on my arm. The red lipstick looks pink due to my super pale skin. It is not. The highlighter is very sparkly. But it is so cool.....The Dior has more sparkle, especially in the lip glosses. Think of glitter on your lips....
I'm really pale also, which is probably why it looks a bit pink on me. It is still very def. red though. Yeah, I have a very low glitter tolerance. I haven't seen the new Dior highlighters yet, but I'm hoping that I like them. If they are the same or more glittery than the chanel, I'll be passing. I like highlighters with sheen rather than actual glitter. If you look at the picture I posted, you can see actual individual flecks of glitter on my cheek.

Here is the swatch of Volage, Flambouyant, the Or Gold eyeliner, and the highlighter powder. I put gold next to the eyeliner, and it was a huge difference. The Or Gold is much lighter and softer

Thank you again! They're all really lovely. I can see that eyeliner being pretty versatile so I think I'm sold on it. Volage looks like a beautiful peachy nude as well but I've been overdoing the nudes lately!

When I put it on my eye it is a soft silver/gold, more silver then gold. Due to my Casper skin on my arm, the silver disappears and the gold portion sticks out. But not on my eye...Just as the Volage lipstick, barely shows up on my lips.

I also first passed on the nude, since I have a boatload of them. Once I got everything on, I realized it was a perfect match for the look. So I sucked it up and purchased it.

The eyeliner on looks more to the far right of the photo of my arm with the highlighter powder. It is more silver, but Casper skin washes out the silver showing up....sorry.

My highlighter arrived yesterday and my nail polish arrived today. Even though I'm an NC50 I was still able to pull off the highlighter. It's gorgeous!!!! A little goes a long way though.

Aww did you take any photos wearing it? My mom is around NC50 (I believe) and she wants the highlighter but is iffy it won't work for her skin tone.

I really need the highlighter, and I have needed it for more than twenty years. When it turns up in my country I'll be sure to buy it AND a back up - and another back up - and probably a third.

Just received a call from my go to people at NM. They have received the Fashion Night Out products!!!! The nail polish is beyond cool with an eyeliner to match, called Sweet Star. Along with the other eyeliner pencils in burnt orange and a dark magenta/red. They should be here by Monday. I will post once I get them!!!!
