:haha: I tried yesterday but the lighting was not so good. It's dark now but I tried. I used my finger to apply it yesterday and it was more matte, but today I used the applicator and it was more glossy but definitely not sticky. Feels great on. This was using one side of the applicator, no double-dipping, it's so very pigmented.

Hehe. Well this is what has been working for me: 1. Drinking more water - skin more hydrated, won't over produce oil. 2. Not cleansing my face on mornings with a cleanser. It sounds semi weird but just cleansing my face with water in the morning and a good rub has been helping loads. I do my full cleansing at night. 3. Not all foundations work with mattifying primers - weird huh? I've found applying a mattifying setting powder under my liquid foundation sometimes works better! 4. My ride or dies right now are the Estee Lauder double matte and this Revlon Colorstay mineral mousse that Revlon stupidly discontinued. You can still find it on Amazon, though. ETA: I also don't put moisturiser on in the morning if I haven't done a cleanse in the morning. It's too much for my skin a.k.a. zit city. Hope something I've tried helps you. N.B. I live in the tropics, so this ish has definitely been working to keep my mask from sliding off lol.
Thank you sooooo much.

[COLOR=0000FF]   It looks absolutely gorgeous on you.  Thanks so much for the pics!!!!  JUST BEAUTIFUL!!![/COLOR]
Thank you [@]Medgal07[/@]!!!!!
  [COLOR=0000FF] I have the 402-------I wonder how they compare:sigh: [/COLOR]
How do you like #402? Trouble lol
In Jesus' name, amen! From your lips to Giorgio's ears! Ooooh I have that mini too and it's amazing!
It's impressive!
That third shade looks like it could be a burgundy... Hope springs eternal... Looks incredible, but on your lips, I can't imagine what wouldn't. I have this one and #201, the dark burgundy, which is incredible. Thanks [@]Shars[/@] for the skin tips! With the change of weather, oil will be less of an issue for me, but I'll hang onto this because I know I'll need it at some point.
Thank you [@]katred[/@] :blush: #201, eh? Taking notes lol

are you acne prone? YOu didn't find that this caused any acne? Which mattifying setting powder do you use?

There is a new Armani eye tint set on nordstroms (3 shades all full size for $85). That would make each around $28 which is a good deal for anyone who doesnt have any of the three shades!

Shades include:
- 2 Meniut
- 7 Shadow
- 12 Gold Ashes
