Nora -- I have never met someone my height before! Do you go around in platforms and wedge heels all of the time too? lol

All of my girls got the short genes too!
I really want Exquise, but it is not on the site that hubby got me the giftcard from. It is so frustrating! Curious -- Do you wear a liner with Exquise? Maybe I can just call a Macy's store -- hopefully they will ship like Nordstroms does. I don't get some of these online sites

LOL! I don't wear really high heels often, but always have at least a bit of height to my shoes! Love wedges!

DH is 6'1" and the kids so far seem to be about average height for their age, so we don't know who they'll end up taking after! I always tell my hubby I married him for his height!!!

I don't use a liner with Exquise, that's part of the beauty of it. It's such an easy to throw on type colour because of the texture! It's almost like a more pigmented Aqualumiere l/s. If I want to lighten up the colour, i'll put Seashell over it.

It's STURDY and super thick, smooth, shiny (the bottom is shiny gold!) and...awesome!

Oh.... is it christmas yet??

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

I'm thinking about the Black Shimmer waterproof eye pencil. Anybody have that shade?

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

I tried Black Shimmer at the Master Class and it is really nice, and has great staying power. I much prefer my UD Oilslick 24/7 liner, though. It's more sparkly and shiny.

So how much shimmy does it have & how intense is the black?

 

[purrtykitty]

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

It's a fine shimmer, and the black isn't super carbon black because of the shimmer. Neither is UD Oilslick, but the shimmer in that one is bigger, so it looks slick and shiny.

Well thanks as that is exactly what I want. For my waterline, I prefer something a bit less intense black/softer, so I think this will work.

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

Seriously, is it August 9th yet?! I want my fall stuff!

Totally off topic, but DH & I got into our house today (garage door was left open), so we got to see the progress so far! It's coming along, the cabinets are all in now, we're waiting on the counter tops, faucets, light fixtures, flooring, carpets and then the stain on the stairs and all the required touching up and.... it'll be done!

Starbucks drinks, christmas markets and mulled wine..... I tend to forget all these things during the summer ......

Heads up, ladies. Sam of Pixiwoo test-driving the new Rouge Allure Extrait de Gloss in a video. She's wearing Impertinence (the shade Chanel describes as "chocolate") and does a little swatch and shows the packaging briefly as well.

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

^^ Thanks! I saw the splash page of these come up the other day when I clicked on Chanel on some online site or another, can't remember which, but I was unable to access the actual product yet. Guess that means they're coming soon.
