Hey ladies! Does anyone have experience with the Mineralize Moisture foundation?  I liked it in store and they make my color (NW13), so I bought it.  I've tried it with 3 brushes and a beauty blender and still can't get it to look good.  It look oily, streaky, and refuses to cover anything.  I thought I'd love it since my SFF can dry my skin out, but this just isn't working.  I might take it back even though I really hate returning makeup.

I like that foundation but I find that less is more with it. It streaks really easily and is a bit of a pain to work with. I dot it on my face where I need coverage and then blend in with a RT brush, a small stippling brush would work well or their buffing brush. Make sure your skin is well moisturized too and I set it with MSF natural.

If you can't make it work, return it. Maybe you'll like the upcoming Waterweight Foundation better, it comes in NW13, too.

I liked it, especially for my dry skin. But it looked way to oily and had a lot of slip to it.
Honestly take it back. It didn't work for me either.

From MAC so far only Please Me, maybe WOG. Guerlain Balls and Chanel blush & nail polish, and maybe the Hourglass palette, but it will be crazy pricey and I'm pretty much just interested in the new highlighter shade it contains.

The hourglass palette is my main interest, as well as some Kat von D items. Those holiday Guerlain meteorites are :eyelove: so gorgeous

Has anyone tried the Laura Mercier Kajal liner? I was going to skip it but I saw it today and swatched it on my hand. I thought it would be like the Guerlain one I have and never use. I wasn't even sure it was black so I asked the SA and he said it was black. I wondered if it was shimmery. He said no but it has a wet look and should only be used on the upper lash line. I was quite intrigued. Now I want it, the eye palette and at least 3 of the lipsticks. Yikes! I wasn't even thinking about this collection before today and now its moved to the top of my list. Off to look for swatches.

I don't really wear black eyeliner much but I'm very interested in the lipsticks now. I hadn't even heard about this collection yet.

You guys, I have officially run out of room to store my makeup. I have a full trunk case and a vanity organizer and they're both full. Plus some random makeup bags. Maybe I do need that dresser from Ikea.

I just bought some more NARS. Man, I love this makeup brand. I've been wearing the same makeup look for like a week straight though, it's so easy and dramatic (just a black smokey eye with a shadow stick and some black eyeshadow and eyeliner and a nude lip).

I promised my boyfriend I wouldn't buy anymore makeup until the VIB sale. Let's see if I can stick to it. He doesn't believe me.

You do need a dresser, it will make all the difference.
Have you tried the Nars Audacious mascara? I am curious

Yes I have! I got a deluxe sample from Nordstrom. It's really, really nice. I've been using it every day since I got it. It takes several coats, but it does give lots of volume and length. It doesn't flake off at all, and it's fairly easy to remove with makeup remover.

I'm going to have to try that mascara. I've been wondering if it would live up to the "audacious" name, especially with the lipsticks being so great.

The lipsticks ARE pretty amazing. I'm not sure the mascara is quite as fab, but I definitely like it. It's good quality like everything NARS makes.
