I seem to be having issues with my sphinx! It's a gorgeous color but I cant get it to settle nicely on my eyes. First of all, if I apply it on its own it seems that the color doesn't stand out as well (and my capillaries poke through). So I decided to apply my UD primer, then a thin coat of foundation to even my skintone, then I applied sphinx and it creased a bit within half an hour. Also, it seems that regardless of what I do, the color on my actual lid fades while it stands out in the inner and outer corners. Ugh.

This is not a popular opinion (to say the least) but I did not like Sphinx. On my skintone (pale with yellow undertones) it just looked like a glitterbomb with very little color and what color there was I did not care for on me unfortunately. It does look beautiful in the pot though.

It will be back.

Is there a way to get emails to let you know people are replying to posts like the old site did? I am not the brightest when it comes to this stuff. I miss notifications.

Caviar is the darker one, and here are the colors of the new lip patents. Yes, more colors will be coming probably in the fall/holiday 2016. Yes, there will be some nudes. I have found if I use the Dior clear lip liner, no feathering issues for me.

I use sphinx in the inner corner of eye or for a highlight. I use the TF concealer brush to apply. I love it for a tiny touch. Or the Chanel tiny flat brush, can't remember the #, sorry.....I also mix sphinx with another shade such as the burnish copper and it is a nice look.

In the pic I posted, it is comparing Black Oyster (heavy swap) to Caviar (only 2 swaps). Sorry if there was confusion.

I am sure it is written many times but could someone maybe help and tell me which quads are being discontinued?
I might have to pick up a few of them before they disappear. Thanks in advance.

Great to hear that more colors are coming. Really like the idea of nudes even though I have a hard time finding one that is easy to wear. I'm crazy over Ravageur. Trying to decide on the next one to get.

No I think Honeymoon was just a new release in the wet dry formulae like Nude Dip , they are apparently going to be a few new wet dry formulae quads released in the Fall from TF but I think they may be Ltd Ed ones .
