Heavens! As in "cult of cherry" cult of cherry? One of my fave lipglasses, and I'm so sorry I only got one before they sold out. I got plenty of the Rich and Ripe, though.

What collection was Li' Hot Pepper from? I noticed that Strawberry Blonde is similar to it (though shinier/silverier or somesuch). I love Li' Hot Pepper!

I think they should put Cult of Cherry into the permanent lipglasses. What a lovely color.

Eeeek! Eye infections are never good.

But hey, at least you can still wear blush, lipstick and gloss, right?

You'll make it through these ten days.

I never had a MSF before and ended up getting the redhead and wow, it's amaaaazing! I put it on my cheeks and it doesn't make the spots look any darker or noticable which is a definate plus, and it's not too harsh to the point where it looks like you're even wearing anything.. it looks sooo natural.

If I have a zit pop out on my cheek, after I put concealer on it, blush will make it jump out like CRAZY unless I powder it post-concealer really, REALLY well. Just a little (as is usually sufficient for setting concealer over blemishes in other locations) doesn't cut it. These MSFs really are lovely, though.

Alright here's the pics... sorry that the lighting BLOWS.

^^Natural lips in natural light. No flash.

^High 90s slim shine. (decided to do this one too for you guys.)

^High 90s slimshine with Red Devil l/g

Vegas Volt lipstick

^Vegas Volt with red devil l/g (it looks bad I know, but I was in a hurry.)

^Coral Polyp lipstick

^Coral Polyp with Red Devil.


Theres no a huge difference... since red devil is soooo pigmented. High 90s is a lil more vibrant... Vegas Volt is a lil more subtle.. and Coral Polyp is WAY vibrant.. insanely!

Hope this helps someone

My counter does funny things too, from my past experiences. I hope I get to see Red Devil.

Whew, you ladies are regular chatterboxes about this collection. Obviously the BBR collection love is still very strong

Just for fun and a change of pace, here is a pic of me from this past weekend where my boobs are not full on display

Raise your hand if you think I look nothing like myself. Haha

I will probably be posting my fotds in the next couple of days. Unfortunately, none of them really feature BBR stuff Unless you count the BBR brushes I used

Wooooo, I should be in bed but Im not. Go me!

 

[Karen_B]

^^You are gorgeous! I love your boots, very sexy.

 

[coachkitten]

You look gorgeous Adina!

I think that it looks like a super-sassy version of you. You have such a great fashion sense.
