Good night pretties. Hope everyone had a great corally/orangey day.

I was late again for work lol. So just threw on some bb cream from Maybelline but pulled out my MAC Toying Around lipstick. It does fall into lip lines a bit was once it settled it behaved.

Girl you let Watch Me Simmer out of your sight?!? I am sad that I could not do Coral/Orange week as big as I wanted.
I keep wishing that Mac would repromote the pinks they initially did with the Shop/ Cook collection (WMS, Naughty Sauté and Quick Sizzle). I wasn't totally sure about any of them and they sold out so quickly that I didn't have a chance to check them In different lighting.
   :lol:  :roflmao: :lmaoo:  [COLOR=FF8C00]   Awwww ---just feel better Sage.  Maybe instead of two weeks in a row we stick with our current schedule but repeat it???? Thoughts suggestions.  Would you mind[/COLOR] [COLOR=FF8C00]    two weeks of a single color, or [/COLOR][COLOR=FF8C00]is that too restrictive and hard to do?  All thoughts and ideas are welcome!!!!![/COLOR]    :lol:   [COLOR=FF8C00]Stalking Pretty????   I love the show Stalkers.  I watched tonight and screamed aloud....twice![/COLOR]:lmao:   [COLOR=FF8C00] We can do it again Sage!!![/COLOR]:support:
I could definitely do a couple of weeks for most colours, as long as they're not too specific. I don't think I could do two full weeks of fuchsia, for instance.

  [COLOR=FF8C00]Don't be!  Runway Hit was drying to a level of discomfort.  I love the matte look, but I couldn't endure it and I had to top it w/a moisturizing tint.  I think I'm[/COLOR] [COLOR=FF8C00]  getting spoiled by my[/COLOR][COLOR=FF8C00] high-end lipstick [/COLOR][COLOR=FF8C00]formulas, but I love my MAC lippes.  I refuse to give up on them!!![/COLOR] [COLOR=FF8C00]​  Your nude eye look sounds pretty.  Toxic Tale is gorgeous.  I don't have it so I looked it up and there you were Katred---stunning pic!!![/COLOR] [COLOR=FF8C00]  [/COLOR]mac toxic tale lipstick [COLOR=FF8C00] [/COLOR] [COLOR=FF8C00]  [/COLOR]
Lol, I'd forgotten about that. It's an older one for sure. Makes me miss my longer hair.

Exactly------I could do any color or two weeks as long as there's a range of variation....like pinks---from nude pinks/pink nudes to hot pink/fuchsia.
​ That way anyone who dislikes pale pink doesn't have to wear it---maybe hot pink works better w/an individual's skin tone/whatever.

*sigh* Look, I'm taking the next few months one week at a time (busy season at work) . I hadn't gotten that far. LOL I honestly thought we were doing just straight up purple... AND to make matters worse, when I read this list initially I thought, oh yeah I can wear Boyfriend Stealer again.
ok that's it for me, I'm going to bed! LOL
but yeah like Katred, I could do a few weeks of this... Mostly MAC though, so I'm looking forward to branching out. I still need to get that Chanel combo you loved.

​I could never do straight up purple because it looks horrific on me! I'll keep reminding you, Pretty.

It'll be bare lips for me today until I return from the dentist!

I try to do cleaning, but the extras just end up moving to a little box in another room, because I always think "hey, what if I want to compare or swatch them or something?"

Kind of disappointed with today's look, although it has nothing to do with the lipstick at all:

Foundation/ concealer is the usual combination- no base today
Cheeks :
RBR Gracilis blush (soft mauve pink)
Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder "Dim Light" (warm beige sheen)

Eyes :
RBR Solstice Halcyon (warmish mauve taupe satin) all over lid
Mac Copperplate (soft warm grey) in crease
Mac Dazzlelight (neutral highlight- must have IMO) along brow bone
RBR Alabaster Starling (silver white with a hint of pink) lower lash lines and patted on centre of lid
UD e/l Smoke (charcoal grey) upper lash lines
UD e/l Desperation (soft, light warm grey) lower water lines
Hourglass Film Noir mascara

Lips :
Guerlain Rouge G Gipsy (tangerine orange with fine gold shimer)

The problem with this look is the eyes. I've tried this sort very soft mauve-taupe-grey look before and as much as I love the colours, they bring out my eye bags something fierce. I was hoping that using Alabaster Starling would alleviate that (by bringing some brightness), but no such luck.

Gipsy is absolute perfection, as always. Every time I wear a Rouge G, I fall more in love with them.

It happens often with me, and not just with makeup lol

I think I'll wait until the New Year to cull my lipsticks, and perhaps my entire stash. I'm getting queasy just thinking about it.
​ I'm sorry you didn't think your eyelook worked but maybe you'r not the best judge of that. I seem to recall you thinking one of your lipsticks
didn't look good and we all thought it looked really pretty!!!

My makeup look didn't vary too much today. I wore the MAC Rainy Season quad again and Tom Ford's True Coral lipstick, which is an orange coral.

Of course I share your love for Gipsy!!!
