^ Anything! It will look great over almost any lipstick, peaches, pinks, especially.

To me, Frozen Dream doesn't look anything like the swatch of Hot Frost from Dame Edna. I like them both, but if I had to choose, I think I'd personally get the one from Dame Edna. Looks a little prettier. JMO. However, I do like Frozen Dream as well.

OMG, I'm so sorry, I meant to put you in my dedication where I linked my FOTD. I knew that someone said something nice about me doing a FOTD and it was you!! I should have backtracked and checked, I apologize. It is now totally dedicated to you. Like it or not!!!!
I don't have Snowscene, but if I did, I'd probably pair it either with something extremely sheer like Politely Pink or nude like 3n or Creme D'Nude or Pure Rose (Ungaro). JMO. I would want to keep with the theme of the lipgloss, which is a very, very, wintry and light lip.

I love the glitters but didn't get them. I kinda wish that I had. But, I'm always so worried about getting a piece of glitter stuck in my eye.
I'm sorry you think these shadows are so lame and stupid. I hope it doesn't keep others who haven't tried it and might like it from doing so. I like them and personally I don't think I'm lame or stupid.
I agree lustres can be a bitch to work with, but if you are a neutral girl, this collection along with BBR are a dream....
Oddly enough, I found that I had no trouble with these, there was some fallout, but I have fallout with almost every friggin' shadow no matter what formulation. However, I didn't have to pack it on as much as I thought. I actually like these better than Ungaro (can you believe it?). For me, the colors in Ungaro were perfect, but those were a pain in the ass to work with. I'd pack a brush for days before I could get some damn color on my lid!!!

It looks great over a red or dark pink lipstick, or over Blast O' Blue, for a really icy/frozen lip look.

they have not been reformulated. different colors/finishes required different ingredients, which results in different textures.

I'm so see-sawing on this, debating on giving this a glance, but will that deter from BBR? hmmm i think i finally need to write all the "wishes" and prioritize. As an eyeshadow whore, eyeshadows trumps lipsticks, but glosses trump lipsticks as well. Its a complicated arrangement!
Which can lead us to another tangent. I LOVE how Specktra threads get so random sometimes. I will write my lists on a new notebook I have. I friggin love office supply shopping!

Hi gigglegirl *waves*
Did you get Artic Grey? I got mine today. Its more silver than grey, but very pretty. It really brightens/opens up the eye lid.

Call MAC and make them aware of the error!!

I would agree...Arctic Grey is a good lustre. I didn't have to pack on too much for it to show up, but isn't that kinda the point of this collection? Sheer and frosty with soft and smokey. The colors aren't supposed to be bright and bold...they're supposed to be barely there and sexy.

Hi Ladies, Happy Holidays! I am thinking about buying Mont Black, not quite sure if it's worth buying. I don't have black tied eyeshadow. Any thoughts on Mont Black from those who have used it or have it? Many thanks!

i just got my pallettes today [smokey and cool from passions of red] and man they are gorgeous, im def skipping the chill shadows. i got frozen dream lg tho and its sooo pretty, its like a frostier, more purpley version of cultured lipglass, SO pretty, verryy cool-toned.
oh and btw, this is totally unrelated but for some reason, i am unable to thank people, like the thanks button is gone?? does anyone kno why that would happen!??

So I think they're similar, either way, I'm personally skipping them because even as NC30 I'm too dark for those shadows! They just look like frost on me! |

Hey momma spy!
No, I didn't get it, well anything yet. I knew I would probably be a bad girl and buy the pinkish shadow plus Arctic Grey or the other grey. If anything thats what ill prob get; the reviews of the liner not being that deep black if you use the tip is dissuading me.
but I need to figure out budget wise. I'm thinking of sending out a couple late "thinking of you" gifts, but then there's also BBR....I just wish BBR could be in Feb--that'd give me more than ample time to budget!

I bought Mont Black since I don't have Black Tied either. I think it's quite pretty. It's similar to Velvet Lady in the Royal Assets: Metallic eyes compact but less black. I can always swatch them if anyone is interested.
