Sorry i didn't mean anything bad

and my cat was a big Miss. Spoiled and high maintenance. And she had big attitude and was very feisty

How lovely, and everything is fine. If you think about it is quite funny. Yet, she is a beautiful to be called Ms. Monsy!!!!

Just received my Terre d'Ete bronzer and Kiss Kiss lipstick in So Plum from Sephora and they both look lovely.
My bronzer arrived, too. Looks lovely and I love the scent it has. But the white plastic-meh. On the bright side, I guess it makes it lightweight to travel.

I don't think that one was ever sold in the States. Do you like it??? I was drooling over it at Harrods and Selfridges. Not sure it is that different then 01 to warrant the overseas shipping charges. 
Love it. I have to stop myself from wearing it every day. Great choice for pale ladies.

She looks like royalty. A real beauty.
[COLOR=0000FF]   Wow---and it's dark enough to use as a blush/bronzer?   At any rate, I'm glad you found something that you like & that works for you.[/COLOR]
It is. I could probably use it as a finishing powder if I applied it with a light, fluffy brush like the Mac 187, but it's still noticeably deeper than my skin. If I use a denser brush, it shows as a subtle but noticeable flush of colour.

Yes Kiki love-----I have Météorites Compact 03 Medium​---I apply it after my setting powder as a finisher to refine & blur, not unlike the Météorites Perles. It is more
practical for travel.

well seeeeee now im curious to know if there's a diff between the 2 esp since dore states "golden"
Dore in the Météorites is pretty dark, which is why I got the compact in medium. I wore it once and didn't recognize myself but for whatever reason it oxidized on me,
but it only happened that one time. I knew I could wear Medium as well because I also purchased the balls in medium. Bottom line---you can probably wear both too!!!

I have the compact in medium, but the SA also used the doré on me, and it also worked. It was a little bit like a finishing bronzer for me (and I am the one the told that all the terracotta ones would be too dark for). I love the look of the balls, but imho they look like a royal PITA to travel. The compact is very practical. There is the voyage one, that is very $$$, and then there is yet another one, it seems it has an incorporated puff or so.

I purchased the compact in Clair, I could not figure out why Voyager was so much more. I only own the blushing balls. Rainbow is finding its way through Russia to get to me. Ms. Monsy would be the one to know about the balls vs the compact.

Good morning ladies!

There is no much difference or any when applied between balls and the compact. I own both and like both. Kiki I think you can do medium or even dore for summer. But medium might give you more of a brightening effect. Obviously compact is much more travel/purse friendly.

Thanks everyone for nice words about my cat. She really acted like she was a royalty. I was never a cat person since I grew up with 2 bull terriers. But the way she came to us and how we saved her and how she ended up being super smart and feisty and how she even survived being shot from a gunshot from our neighbor ... she was a real fighter

sorry about the offtopic

funny thing - everyone at my work is going crazy over the new mascara. They saw me wearing it and rushed to buy it to nordies - completely sold out! no surprise there. You see what happens when you give out samples of such a good product? It clearly boost your sales.

That happened with the Aucoin product. By the time I got home from the North Shore (about an hour) I was a pumpkin. I skipped into Daddy's office to show him my wonderful new look!!!! He looked up from his computer and over his glasses and calmly stated: tell me you didn't pay to look that orange. I ran to the ladies room and nearly died!!!!

Ms. Monsy, you beloved late kitty looks like she was a Russian Blue or at least part Russian Blue. I own two Havanna Brown cats, Jackson Pollock and Chaos. Chaos is a perfect name for this cat. I know you have mentioned before. What is the fragrance sold in perfume that smells like the balls???? I have placed the powder puff from the blush in my undies drawer. When I open it, the fragrance is just so lovely, and I am not into fragrance. Thanks for your knowledge, you are just super!!!!!
