So, I'm relatively new to this thread so if there is a page I can go back to, please let me know! buuut, I was thinking about ordering film star bronze and glow. any thoughts on it? :) i'm super lemming it, but I have no place to swatch it in person. Is it worth the $70?
I've swatched it a few times and it's very pretty but nothing that I don't already own. She's coming up with a cream version this summer, I'm more interested in that one.

I have it Lauren. It's nice but I don't reach for too often----not that there's anything wrong w/it or that I dislike anything about it------I just have so damn much makeup.
Now with my new Tom Ford bronzers and another new Guerlain bronzer.........
OYE VEY!!!

I detest cream highlighters---I have the Tom Ford Shade & Illuminate and I hate & never use the illuminate side. I ALWAYs set the cream shade product with a powder bronzer (sometimes the shade portion of CT Film Star) but it adds a step to the process----setting the cream for fear the cream will slip/migrate. In spite of that, I do love the shade portion of the TF S & I. I wish they sold it separately from the illuminator which is worthless to me.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPDamx51lZ4 - Charlotte Tilbury shows Amal Clooney's wedding makeup. The eye look is with Marie Antoinette and Norma Jean and it's stunning

OMG---that was just stunning. I have the Wonderglow Beauty Flash Primer but it breaks me out. You can also apply it OVER your foundation and that's what I do to
avoid related skin eruptions.

I got my Nordie's order and I think I'm going to return Cleopatra. Not because its not stunning. I just think I want the Armani Eye Tint in 04 instead. I'm definitely going back for Bette. I need her in my life.
I love the Armani Eye Tints so much. I was sold on the applicator---I hate using my fingers, and the color Émeraude #4 is AMAZING!!!!
​ Bette is soon pretty. I'm on Saks and decided to look for her and Saks doesn't sell CT. *Has tantrum and storms off to order elsewhere!!!

I wanted to buy it but I got the Soleil tan de Chanel Sunkissed instead - it's gorgeous!




Does anyone have the Magic cream? I'm really tempted to buy it, I've tried it on my hand and it has made it incredibly soft but they don't have samples and I'm not sure if I want to spend that much money on something without being able to try it and with no chance to return it.

I love the glow that the cream highlighters give! I rarely set them with powder.

I just find cream highlighters fussy----they require a tad more time for me to apply. I don't mind an all-over illuminator like CT wonder Glow and TF Fireside because
they can be mixed in with your foundation. I have SOLEIL TAN DE CHANEL sitting in my Sax cart. What better time for 16% cash back right!!!

In that CT video that you shared, she seemed to use a ton of face products! I don't like that much product on my face, especially in the summer, but the look that
resulted was AMAZING!!!

I always use moisturiser, foundation, concealer and powder and recently I mix my foundation with the Chanel iiluminator but I don't use them in such amounts! When I was watching this video today I was wondering if I'm doing it wrong - especially after seeing the amount of moisturiser she put on the model! The final look was absolutely gorgeous though.

My heart is incredibly touched that you felt that way me dear friend! The kids helped & hubs ordered me a necklace & took me to an art museum for the day to distract me. It was good.

Seriously, you have no idea how much you telling me that makes me feel so GOOD!
