Elegant, I am so glad you like the Arm pencil.. it is fantastic.. I also bought a brown one, the 02 for the lower lid only.

I think it runs neck to neck with Feline.. but Feline is more of a kohl pencil so it's smudgier and has been great for my waterline. I also love my 518 .. and caved and ordered the Joyeuse.. lol. I am a shameful hussy.. lol

I might have to try out the Arm*** liner. I have Feline -- which is really easy to work right into the lashes -- but it tends to migrate on my inner corner by end of day. I need a good dark brown liner, too. I love the Whiskey liner that came with the UD Naked palette -- but they don't sell it individually. Why oh why would they not sell a matte dark brown liner??
Wearing my Instinctive l/s today with Victoria's Secret gloss in Beautiful on top. Paired with Espiegle blush and Dunes quad -- love all of them

So ready for Spring . . .

HG -- Ooooh, do tell about the flowers. Just tell us and then just throw in a random comment about Chanel to keep it legit!

Bonitinha... that sounds so pretty! You always look lovely I am sure !

I got the UD palette and did like the Whiskey.. but do try the ARM 02.. it is a gorgeous shade as well and really stays put.

:) Do you like it? Do these pencils wear well for you. I noticed that the corner of mine smudged a bit.

Really? Hmmm. Well I only have the brown and I've only worn it once so far but I thought it was pretty amazing as far as wear. As far as the color I actually prefer MAC Molasses, but I do like this too, and I'm thinking it may work well with the Chanel summer quad.

Get out - I LOVE mac Molasses - one of my all time fave browns, that & BB gel liner in Espresso (which I wear 99% of the time over deep warm coffee brown liner) I may have just bumped the liner earlier with my hand when I was taking off my blush, because I just washed my hair with water running all over my eyes & my liner is still perfect! no smears or smudges at all. Its just perfect. hmmmm


And, I took a hot shower...& the liner is STILL perfect

ok.. for the liner. it is a great brown, not too orangey which is good for me.. and actually leans cooler towards a dark taupe imo.. also, I was looking at the new MAC eyes for fall/winter 2011, and noticed a very similar thick cat eye in this colour.. beautiful. The wear is same as the black.

now for some of the dirt.. I was buying some CHANEL stuff at DF in Italy and a lovely man kinda Jeff Bridges looking, longer grey hair and long legs (lol, I have a thing about men with long legs.. I hate little men with puny legs with black hairs sticking out on them.. but those are other stories).. anyway, he was asking one of the SAs in DF if a JC would suit his gf.. but she did not understand him well as he was noticeably from Latin America and spoke half broken Italian... anyway, this was just too much for me to resist and I asked him in Spanish what shade he had been asked to get.. and he said, he thought it was a "bronze" shade.. so I told the SA in Italian, to show him an Imprevu, or a Rose Bronze, anything with bronze. During all this time, the man was looking at me with a smile on his face and I thought he was making fun of me.. to make a long story short (we had a 2 hour wait for our plane), we sat and chatted for awhile in Spanish and basically exchanged info.. he is Argentine and is a wine grower who visits Italy often due to business.. I told him what I did and he was befuddled.. lol. This industry has that effect on a lot of men who don't know the fashion world.. anyway, we got on our respective planes.. he was off to JFK and I was off to MIA.. exchanged cards and said goodbye. I have not heard from him to date.. except this morning I found an email which said, "I hope the roses were the colour of the lipstick you were wearing.".. lol. Anyway, I have not spoken to him but did send a little email saying.. oh, it was you! I hope your wife liked the colours you picked out for her.. and I did include the colour I was wearing... thank you for the flowers and chocolates.. how did you know I love chocolate? ..thanks. Around noon, I got an email which said.. you seem to be the type of woman who can appreciate anything aesthic or sensual.. and I do not have a wife.. I got those cosmetics for my daughter who works with me..

chapt 2..
