First post and a couple questions =)

Hey everyone!

I've been lurking here for quite a while, sneaking peeks at all your lovely FOTD's, tutorials & such, and I finally felt a need to post!

Anyways, I'm planning on making a decent-sized MAC haul in a month or so and I had a couple questions.

Flashtrack vs. Deep Truth - I'm looking for a nice navy and these two keep coming up. Which one do you like better and why?

What's your favorite highlighter shadow? I'm looking at Shroom, Dazzlelight & Phloof.

And what are your thoughts on Bronze CCB? I've seen MissChevious' gooorgeous FOTD's with it and I totally think I need it now!

Thanks!

Flashtrack - it's a VP so it has a fab texture.
For a highlighter, I'd either go with Shroom or Dazzlelight, Shroom has more of a soft shimmer and Dazzlelight has more. Phloof is really shimmery.

deep truth. a little darker, and has a better consistency. i don't get everyone's love affairs with VP finishes. they're not bad, but they're not special. i had both flashtrack and deep truth and sold flashtrack because it was harder to work with. deep truth blends better, especially with blue smoky looks.

shroom. phloof is too pink, IMO, even though it's a light, neutral pink, it's still too pink. shroom is perfectly neutral, and has the least amount of shimmer to it. perfect to complement every look and use as an every day highlight.

I prefer the texture of Flashtrack personally, it has a softer feel. As far as a highlighter goes, Shroom is more beigey, Phloof has a pinky-white undertone and Dazzlelight is more ivory. Of the 3 I prefer Dazzlelight and then Phloof, they actually show up on me, Dazzlelight being more versitile. I really don't like Shroom, it looks too blah on me and just blends in with my skin but I know alot of people like it.

everyone is going to have their own opinion on how it looks on their specific skin tone and coloring, i would definetely suggest going to the store and trying it on yourself and deciding which one works best for you.
my personal opinions on flashtrack v. deep truth, i like them both and i think they are different enough for you to get both... deep truth is alot darker than flashtrack

i like dazzlelight as my highlight and i also love bronze ccb, but rare;y ever find myself using it for some reason
