I'm eyeing the chorafil mascara but I'm afraid it will end up weighing my already flat lashes like most formulas do :/

Not sure if this is in the correct thread for Toledo- but is anyone having an issue with the Kindergarten Red blush? I got Ripe Peach and it looks beautiful but with the KR I barely can get any product, it's almost like a plastic texture :/
Just try a few different brushes. 109 works well for me. I also found KR shows up more strongly on me over foundation, rather than bare skin. It looks amazingly natural with foundation, unlike so many other blushes.

It's almost an exact dupe of Ronnie Red on me….except it's better! It's a more vibrant and complex color compared to RR (and I looooooove RR).

I'm sorry if this has already been covered but does anyone have both Glam and Victoriana? As they are both described as pink reds. Can someone please post swatches and or too? I own Glam and am agonizing over whether to purchase Victoriana or not. Thank you to you!!!!

This is releasing at all locations + online in Scandinavia on March 6th (Excluding the Makeup bag which is online, Magasin Kgs. Nytorv, Åhlens Stockholm and Oslo City. I got a sample of Sin today, and even though it is perm I dont have it in my collection so I'm excited to try it!

I feel like I make the most ridiculous faces in the pics I upload on here, but here is CP's Brink lip liner + Oxblood + NYX butter gloss in Angel Food Cake. This is probably going to be one of my go-to combinations this spring. This line was such a peasant surprise! I might go to the Toledo event at the mall this weekend to pick up some more stuff.
Gorgeous

I finally felt well enough to play with Oxblood today. Ignore the lack of other makeup, still not feeling my best but I'm loving Oxblood. Going to try it with different liners too.  Lipglass Only Lipstick Only Lipglass, Lipstick, Cork Liner
I love Oxblood on you with or without the gloss. It is now my fav nude.

When I'm feeling more daring I'll try out the crimson at the bottom.


I wore Kindergarten Red again today. This time it worked just fine. I think working it over yesterday got the "film" off.

I'm wearing more red on my cheeks today, because i put on NYX Wicked Lipstick in Cold Hearted​ (metallic dark grey) and patted some of the pale turquoise ("CandyCrush") eye shadow from the sugarpill Sparkle Baby palette over it to give it a teal glow. On my eyes I used the deep teal from the Urban Decay Electric palette in the outer V and "CandyCrush" on the inner lid area.

As simple as the sugarpill palette is, on other days i've also patted "Frostine" (pale lilac) on my lips and i've used both "Kitten Parade" (coral w/gold frost) and "Hotsy Totsy" (deep fuchsia pink) as blushes, besides using them all as eye shadows.

I've got all this darn makeup, i want to have fun with it!

Has anyone compared the Oxblood lipglass to the VGV lipglass? I'm trying to get my list down to a manageable size, but I keep coming back to this lipglass. I also keep coming back to the lipstick, even though I know I really shouldn't as I have Kinda Sexy. All this talk about the 109 has made me want to get that as well. I seem to be on a brush-buying binge at the moment!

They look very different to me just looking at T's swatches. Plus, VGV is shimmery, while Oxblood has no shimmer.

Here's a comparison of VGV (top) and Oxblood (bottom). Photos credit to Temptalia of course.
