That's awesome Ali! I love your experimental attitude ;-) That's kind of the approach I took to this collection as well - definitely tried some things that are out of my comfort zone. I still haven't gotten Jack because I don't think it will be purple enough for me, but if it doesn't sell out soon I can't guarantee I won't try it at some point! Tomas is one of my favorites. Enjoy your boys!Yes, Tomas, is really perfect on me. It was the first color I was attracted to, but was giving it a pass because of the SA who was encouraging me to go more vibrant. But Ella challenged that-- in a good way-- and she was 100% right. He was pushing me towards more brights but he was only seeing my skin in the store lighting, and in natural lighting my olive undertone works with some pinks and looks terrible with others. Like I am not in love with Giacomo on me, although my other choices basically work, except for the two really odd ones, Gustavo and Stavros, which were my own experiment. Omar is also the perfect nude on me as it turns out, which Ella also drew my attention to. It's no MLBB but it is so perfect for my skin tone.
And Jack unexpectedly hit that sweet spot where it leans toward purple which makes it more wearable for me. Spice is TF and the eye tints are Giorgio Armani so I did not see Spice.
ad hell.............LOL!

Thanks, Ella. I am enjoying them for sure!That's awesome Ali!

And I just saw your Hourglass swatches. T gave the Graphite palette a poor review. And I thought, "Phew, I'm done." But the green one-- oh my. I have so much green. But that is one beauty.Thanks, Ella. I am enjoying them for sure!
Oh no, did she? I haven't seen it yet. Will have to check it out. Did she say it was powdery? LOL Yes, they're all powdery. But I love the ones I have! Anyway, I'm with you on the greens. And there's the green TF duo coming out for Spring...there's no end in sight!And I just saw your Hourglass swatches. T gave the Graphite palette a poor review. And I thought, "Phew, I'm done."

I have the Shu green palette, Dior Jardin, and Guerlain Coup de Foudre, which is a wonderful palette. The Shu has two goldy greens, one off white, and one teal-- but of course you can mix. Coup de Foudre is perfection.Oh no, did she? I haven't seen it yet. Will have to check it out. Did she say it was powdery? LOL Yes, they're all powdery. But I love the ones I have!

Oh I was curious about Olivier as well. Let us know how you feel about it! Leonardo is on his way to me. I hope he'll be here by Monday. I'll let you know then how he is, if you can wait that long haha.Ok, peeps...I just bought Olivier How about Leonardo???

Exactly!!! They knew where to hack & place their ads
I noticed you said it involved the Buy All the Things thread yesterday---what better place for a bunch of Ads than with people (me included) who vow to "buy all the things."
Nice greens! I have Dior Jardin, Dior House of Greens, Gucci Serpentine Envy, Hourglass Color Field, GA Eye Tint in Green Iron, and I'm sure I'm missing some LOL. I had a gift card for Christmas and almost used it to buy the TF quad in Sahara Haze but I stopped myself! Those Shu and Guerlain palettes sound awesome which means I should not google them! I'm already mad I saw the TF Jade duo and can't unsee it!I have the Shu green palette, Dior Jardin, and Guerlain Coup de Foudre, which is a wonderful palette.

On another note, do you have the Burberry earthy blush? Am not sure how well it plays on pale olive complexions-- whether it would be just too brown or not.
:lmao:Exactly!!! They knew where to hack & place their ads :lmao: They read & our posts & must have thought...these people will buy anything LOL!
Good news!!! I tried Julian again today with my Chanel Canaille blush and it looks really good! I guess I needed that contrast!Hmm, based on your avi I would think Julian would look lovely on you! I have Julian and personally love it - so much! Maybe try it on again with something neutral and see how it goes? I personally like to try on lippies while I'm not wearing any makeup so it doesn't distract me. So the "wrong" blush could certainly make a difference!
That Chanel blush (as all Chanel blushes) is so pretty!Yes, Tomas, is really perfect on me.
