Has anyone used the Urban Decay face/body Illuminator before? I may try the new one that's coming out with the holiday collection. Temptalia has pictures/swatches up for the illuminator and the shadow palettes.

They're very glittery- like they actually contain glitter particles and not just a sheen which Is why I have never purchased any!

How expensive on Ebay? It retailed for about $72, so if it's a little over that, maybe it's not such a bad deal? Cause you would have had to add taxes to that too. Am I helping justify it yet?

....and in many instances shipping is FREE

Broken Highlighter Update: The people at Bitter Lace never replied to my email. Won't be ordering from there again.

Whoa

not cool!!!

oh you've helped me, but not my wallet! LOL *goes to look* I see some for 89.95.

*jumping up and down* I'm so tempted, and the seller sounds like a legit seller. Free s&H to US... what to do.

Which one Pretty????

I just received my second Looxi Beauty order today! The quick overview is that I am pleasantly surprised with Foxy (which I purchased because it was going to be/has been discontinued as of the 1st). It swatched very silvery but is nice and subtle on. And Posh, OMG! This one I was so afraid of purchasing but I'm glad I did. It doesn't really have a base color, it's like pure iridescent white gold (kind of like MAC's Vanilla Pigment but softer) so it can be layered over anything. It is so pretty and unique in my collection. I also got Divine (still need to play around with that one) and my replacement Ever After was in the bunch. I definitely prefer the original to my Frankenstein's monster (there isn't a huge difference but I added too much Viz a Violet I think).

Now I need to gift someone my re-pressed powders but I feel like my friends would side-eye them, lol. I'm going to try anyway. I hate to have to toss or just stow away a perfectly good product.


Broken Highlighter Update:
Jenna (the owner/creator of Bitter Lace) got back to me (I sent a follow-up email yesterday and apparently she never received the first email) and she is shipping out a new highlighter for me. Yay! I'm happy it wasn't a customer service issue because the highlighters I bought from her are really beautiful (and who else is making teal and violet highlighters?!). I hope she expands the range soon.

Thanks for this!

I am not a fan of glitter/visible sparkle particles in my highlighters either. I love sparkle for the eyes, lips and nails, but for my cheeks I only want a "glow" with a nice luminous sheen, no shimmer/sparkle.

anastasia's peach nectar, so hollywood, & riviera! I love these!! I love the formula, don't find them overly metallic at all & the colors look distinctively different on my skintone (around nc30)
