I bought that LM highlighter, too. I really liked it at first, but I ended up returning it. Once I tried it on I didn't love it enough to justify the amount I spent on it. My favorite highlighter is still the one I got from thebalm.I'm kind of mad though because I did not know that was an overspray. Why do I halfway want to take it back?I got the Laura Mercier Highligter and it kicks both Chanel AND Guerlain's asses.

Hm... I'll have to check that one out again. I'm still kicking myself for missing LM's fall collection. There were a lot of items I wanted and my counter seriously had it on display for about a week.I'm kind of mad though because I did not know that was an overspray. Why do I halfway want to take it back?I got the Laura Mercier Highligter and it kicks both Chanel AND Guerlain's asses.
I'm still kind of transfixed by Guerlain's highlighter. I think I like the idea that it could probably work as a soft blush on me as well (HG- your thoughts?)

It's a little more dense in color saturation than terra inca. Terra Inca is more pink... the LM version is more rose.

I know there is been a lot of talk about highlighters. My favorite hl right now is the white part of the Soho Powder...thanks Winthrop44

The Soho powder is gorgeous, I like the white as highlight and the brown as bronzer/contour. The pink is too small to use it on it's own. But I always forget I have it, until elegant says how much she like the stone colour too. Thanks, purplerinne, I'll check out the highlighter tomorrow! Like I need more highlighters! Enivree and Empire came home with me today! I swatched Enivree and saw the shimmers for the first time! So beautiful. Almost bought Spices quad but I think it can wait, since it's perm. I also went to the Duty Free Shop in town but they didn't have the lip bag. There were only 4 of the extrait de gloss set left so I bought it. I'll post pics of it tomorrow. I think I'm done with the holiday collection, I only want Spices and the lip bag. Must save for the spring collection!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the stone color in the Soho palette. I should have gotten a BU of it. I want a compact with just that shade in it.

Ooh Ooh Ooh...I did this really lovely eye look tonight
Chanel Platine all over the eyelid (thanks Shypo I LOVE this es so much) I just bought Mac's For Effect paintpot, so I used it just on the lid up to crease, then just above my crease I used Beige Lame
and only a very thin black liner on upper lash line only. So pretty. Actually, even if you didn't use BL in the crease, just Platine & For Effect look awesome awesome together.
I may want to backup BL too

That sounds really pretty. So do you love For Effect? I was considering it.
