I like to use a mixture of textures on my eye. It adds more depth, and still isn't a total bitch to blend. Also, the matte2 are pure looooove. Poison Pen and I are getting along just grand over here! Looks lovely with Softwash Grey pigment.

Oh, man, I forgot I'm in need of some more flammable. LOVER! COME TO MEEEEEEE!

It takes a lot of pictures before I find a decent one of myself too. I'm NOT photogenic, makes me sad. The camera doesn't capture what I look like true to life.

It is so demoralizing too, because if I get married I know I won't want any pictures, because I know that I will turn up bad in them.

Oh God,not only is there the color collection for Red She Said,but there are also the palettes and brush sets

So when are we going to know about palettes/sets already?Sooo imnpatient-should be about that time!

 

[panther27]

I was so shocked at how smooth the Overrich pigments are

they just glide on.

It'll be awhile since they have the Holiday/winter update in October, but I am sure news will leak before then.

 

[panther27]

^^^Yea,oct 16 is when red she said color collection,palettes and brushes will release,according to MAC live chat.Color stories are usually leaked maybe 1-2 months before a collection releases,so yea probably sometime beginning to mid sept,but who knows

Soooo true! I went to look at everything this weekend...and I ended buying Mega Rich. It is so everyday pretty, but the color just made my hazel brown eyes completely sexy & stand out.

I bought Copperbeam before & I still love that shade.

Purrtykitty has me interested in Museum Bronze now

Don't you just love that shade! I put it over Utter Pervette...so pretty. Or, I love just a very light application of it too. I'm glad you like it too!

I thought of you yesterday

I wore Mega Rich over a Bobbie Brown medium grey & it looked so awesome.

 

[coachkitten]

Ohhh....jampacked over utter pervette?!? That is not a combo that I would have thought of. I am going to try that tomorrow!

Hope everyone is having a Happy Monday!

My trusty credit card and I went to the mall today and bought some NON-MAKEUP! I now own TWO pairs of jeans!! This is infinitely more than I had before. Both are very dark washes. Weeeee. In my world, there's no other kind. Oh, but not black, because I don't like those. Black denim =

 

[Sanayhs]

I'll have to give Jampacked a go over Out To Shock. Mmmm...

 

[elegant-one]

Ooh, I also bought Up The Amp lipstick...how did I miss that gorgeous color all this time! I also used Utter Pervette just on the fuller part of my bottom lip over it. Then I tried Cherry Blossom over it. I love this lip color

Hehehe...oops!

I do want the rest, but I WILL wait until everything else gets to CCOs. I've been really interested in buying new work clothes lately. I've found a bunch of cute and inexpensive tops at Kohl's. I'm almost done, though. Just a couple more tops, skirts, shoes and jackets and I'll be good to go for a while.

I found some really cheap great deals in the sale room at Anthropologie Sat. Stuff was marked waaaay down. And Dillards had the best shoe sale 50% off the sale price...that is my favorite time to buy shoes. I bought 2 $80 pairs of shoes, one for my daughter in law & one for me - $20 each!

hey guys! checking in before i hit the books tonight!

I am mad at myself for almost skipping over Hot Contrast--the black to be quite honest scared me, plus the red veins in the melange? Red not my cup of tea BUT here's my look breakdown:
-Girl Friendly (a matte looking pink/neutral paintpot) as a base
-silver solid side of Polar Opp on inner v of eyes
-melange of Hot Contrast on middle of eye
-black side of Hot Contrast on outer v/blended into crease.

Ummm hot purple dark smokey eye!! It was quite shocking, but I guess the pinkish paintpot really helped it, plus the melange of hot contrast I find is purple-y. Then I added a teensy bit of the shisheido white lights hydro powder shadow over top to give it more of a glisteney sheen <3

Okay for upcoming collections--Ill preface this with a message (also b/c I seem to ramble)--Ive decided I need to start saving for the future, and know the incredible power of compounded money. So I am on A NO BUY until Cremesheen (give me a break, lol I know its October but its a bit of a break!) where I want that coral ravishing lippie. Thats it.

THEN *dum dah daaaaa* I am SKIPPING the MES from Red She Said--yes, quite shocking, me skipping mes but I have quite an array (yes skipping suite array too!) already of them and dont think I need more.

So the ONLY thing I will buy from the holiday collection? Probably pigment minis, and of course a mini paintpot set if MAC so blesses us. Then otherwise its just foundation, powder/essentials I run out of.

Now how many of you think I can actually do this? Umm Ill have to admit, I'm not so sure Ill be able to resist once I see everyone getting excited and swatching. But I will try! b/c I'm afraid the more I buy (specifically lip products) they will turn bad before I actually use them much.

oh and I finally cracked into my EZ Baby tendertone last night before bed. OH MY GOODNESS why the HECK was I using my Honey Bare and Pucker tendertones so much? I left the other three I had bought unused, sitting there waiting for me to finish one. But crickey I LOVE how it makes my lips look. not overly glittery as perhaps some other tendertones, but a sweeeeeeeett sheen. LOVE IT!
