She could be badmouthing out of feeling lost in your family if she's not the same race. Shoot, I went through it for only being half of a race, it makes you feel on lost ground. I was always more comfortable in shalwar kameez instead of doing the whole burqa thing, just wore the matching scarf to cover my hair. If she's another race, she might actually believe by slandering your family, it'll make her feel better. Tread with caution and just know she's unstable until she tries to beat her insecurities or until your uncle checks her one.
The Shimmering Nudes palette was the neutral shades palette but I like yours better. The colors are more like what I would usually wear and the bluish-silver color is freaking gorgeous. I'd buy the Lancome or Estee Lauder shadows for my boyfriend to stop complaining about my lack of neutral tones.
How bad did Punjabi MC hit over in the UK a couple years ago? Curiosity. That Beware album was amazing....Jogi....gotta love the cheetah in the vid.

Nope, my family is Indian and she too is Indian..I saw her today and my other aunt (sister of my dad) mentioned how good my skin was looking and the married in one piped up with "I'd expect my skin to look good if I put on as much foundation as she did" to which my other aunt calmly replied "Yeah but you put more on and you still don't conceal what needs to be hidden"..
It's funny you mention that having to fit in thing, Mr RR is white and since me and him have been together all the women in his family have been pouncing on my makeup stash and have started to be more adventurous in their makeup choices. His family are great though, they treat me just as they treat the daughters of the family which is more than can be said for how my extended family treat Mr RR but that's by the by.
Her husband has changed dramatically since he met her and he does anything she wants so yeah..
Punjabi MC was always big with the Indian folk in England, he had that one hit which went in to the UK charts and then carried on making music, he's released a lot more since then but it hasn't been released to the mainstream markets. Specialist and Tru Skool are my favourite though
I'm so blind, I just saw the shimmering nudes palette now and it's out of stock
I wish I had bought it..BB shadows are really nice and soft but my current eyeshadow babies are the Sleek palettes, gorgeously soft and under a fiver!
I've just seen the Stila sale link posted by Anita and Mr RR owes me so I'm dragging him (and, more importantly, his credit card) along with me to that sale..I can't wait!
