I agree, at least that's true of the older formula, the one they disconitnued (and sold dirt cheap). I picked up a lot of those last year and while I like the colors, the formula is really slippery, not creamy, if that makes sense. I love Sephora brushes. I was lucky and grabbed out a lot when they re-hauled their brush line a while back and the brushes were super cheap. Now I don't really buy so many Sephora brushes because they are a bit expensive, but the ones I have I love. I did get the #44 Bronzer Brush and I like it a lot and I have heard really good things about the Professional Platinum Natural Powder Brush. Also their Face & Eye Travel Kit is awesome! It stays in my on-the-go makeup bag and I especially love the crease brush that's included. It's much better quality than the MAC brush sets.

And one last, slightly off topic thing. I REALLY want those new Double-Ended Color Dipped Brushes! They look awesome, but I HATE double-ended brushes (impossible to store). Maybe I could just cut the brushes in half... someone at Home Depot could do that right?

I know someone whose daughter lip broke out really bad using their lipgloss..I think she was allergic to it..she wasn't sure at first what was doing this to her lips so she used this lipgloss again one day and it did the same thing..don't know how it will affect you..just saying..

I don't like their nano pencils..for that price I can buy Prestige pencils in a bigger size..their nano pencils are way too small for me for 5.00..IMO

I bought mine (Lip star attitude formulation in the color Excited Pink 13) maybe 3 or 4 months ago at Sephora....I did just look it up on their site and they do advertise it as a lipstick that is meant to have a lipgloss feel to it. There were no signs telling me that in the store though

I do love the color though, I just make sure to use it over a lipliner.

I'm a fan of budget make up but I'm not a fan of Sephora brand.
I'd stick with drugstore brands =D
I once bought a blockbuster palette and it was actually pretty good but I dunno I just don't use it. =/

I just recently purchased 4 of the new paraben-free eye shadows, and I have to say I really like them. They have a nice texture, blend beautifully and have good color payoff. I picked up Marie, Picnic in the Park, De Lux Punk and Sweet Candy, and love them all!
