I totally forgot to swatch it! Come to think of it, I'm not sure that it was in the display. What is the shade like?
It's fairly peachy in the tube and on my arm but for some reason all that disappears on my lips and it is just a light pink. It feels fairly moisturizing but I don't know that I would say it's worth it. Nice but not amazing.

In the tube is kinda bronze. Once watched the back of my hand, nothing showed up, same for the lips. So if it doesn't show up Pink Casper think it is fair to say, pretty much no color. Not even got a hint of sparkle. If there was sparkle it so would have come with me....

Packing for me is such a pain. Need to bring warm clothes, since the mountains of Montana/Idaho/Wyoming get really cold even in late July. Then the next day, I will literally be stuck in Death Valley. So I need clothes for hotter then the hinges of hell. Toss in I am limited to how many bags I am allowed to bring along with my tent, sleeping bag, air mattress (not gonna sleep on the hard ground or worse yet, wet ground), and then my makeup. Which MUST fit in my carry on bag. Not going to lose that in the airport we have misplaced your luggage!!!! Since where I go is usually 2-6 hours from the airport. Then once on site, the group leader will decide to limit even further how much can go up past the base camp.

My P's love their grand dogs. My brother's wife claims my Mom cares more about the grand dogs then her. Which is actually true. But that is another story. No grand kiddies from me or my brother. The P's are fine with that!!!! As my brother has said, dogs don't drunk, stoned, and since our dogs are so huge, don't make it much past 10 years. They do cat around if not fixed.....but no concern since once their show career is over, so usually are their puppy making days. Or in the case of the males, frozen puppy making works well. Dead dogs since making puppies.
Sounds like a heck of a trip Ash. I would suffer PTSD if I were restricted as to how much I could bring----I'd be tempted to wear several outfits en route, just to get to
bring them.

But, it does make your lips look really really pretty! Geesh, they should have added some color & pretty gold shimmy.

I agree the product is very nice on the lips as far as feel and moisturizing. Just not worth the cost of a basic lip balm with no color payoff. I did not get the color you got on my arm. But it could be a keyboard back issue (as in my fault)

So have done that, as in layers upon layers to just hide how many shirts/shorts/pants I could take with me....not figured out how to wear two pairs of shoes at the same time.

No, i use the brush that comes with it. I have the beautiful white retractible brush, but i haven' t ever used used it. I will one day i guess;) Simple is right! Thats why I love this powder. It's quick & easy beauty! I love that.
I am using the retractable kabuki brush with my les beiges powders and since i started using it i never looked behind!

Oh read EO's reviews!!! I was skipping but now there are Les Beiges items in my cart!!
girlhaha.gif



I already have 2 of the polishes- I was going to pick them up slowly. But the pinky tint on the lighter powder is probably perfect for my skin.
This Pink Casper will let you know. Better yet, have the original Pink Casper (Mama) try it out!!!!

By the way, I finally tried Beige Rose. Awesome.

3 coats for full coverage, and it's a fantastic formula for the shade. Very easy to work with and very flattering.

This is up on Nordstrom right now, not as a collection but in the mix of all items. On Nordstrom, Chanel items do not show up in search. You have to go to Chanel Makeup, and explore "newest items" from there.

I played with the Les Beiges liquid yesterday (late to the party, I know!) Really beautiful. I picked it up in N10. Now wanting two of the blush sticks and the powders. The blush sticks are beautiful. I blame this thread for lemming the powders on you all (esp. @elegant-one! :)

I want to see this collection in person so bad! My local slow-mo Dillards up here at school only just got the summer collection last week. Goodness knows when they'll get Les Beiges...
