Is Fab-Dabulous too pigmented for NW15?

From what I can tell, you could probably apply it lightly with the 187 or 188.

A blush can never be too pigmented.

I'm so in love with the new Mineralize Eyeshadows! I got Girlish Romp and Eccentricity and the payoff on these is amazing when I use a sponge tip applicator over a good shimmery eyeshadow base (I use a Japanese brand, Testimo Eye Bright Up Base). The metallic sheen shows up very well. I also picked up Smooth Merge and Triple Fusion but haven't played with them yet.

Hello! Stopping by this thread again.

I'm glad to see that the other reviewers said Nice Mix Up l/g is pretty. I was short of cash that day and decided I could only afford one l/g then, so I got Nice Mix Up.

This was the color I had wanted Queen Bee l/g to be, a pretty bright orange-coral.

Ecletic Edge kinda reminded me of Mega lipgelee, maybe someone can do comparison swatch of the 2?

Update: Cheeky Bronze does show up as a blush on me (NC35).

Good for when I want something neutral colored on my cheeks, but not a very exciting color for those of you who like dramatic cheeks.

 

[GlamQueen21]

Both Triple Fusion and Smooth Merge look gorgeous!!!

Can someone do a comparison swatch of triple fusion and redhead? They look pretty similar and I already have redhead. Thanks and sorry if this has been asked, but I don't remember seeing comparisons of the 2.


I checked back with my mac counter at macys to double check and see if the MA made a mistake a few days ago bout this releasing at the end of july. This MA I spoke to today didn't even know what collection I was talking about

!!!!! How could they NOT know their collections! And she said she didn't have the book to let me know the exact date.

I AM NOT WAITING FOR CC 2 BE AT MY COUNTER BY THE END OF JULY!!!!!!!!!!! I'll have to buy online. Guys PLEASE keep the swatches coming?????????

There are comparison swatches in the swatch thread.

I have recently gone on a rampant blush haul/swap, and have 6 new blushes sitting in my drawer waiting for me to try them out at the moment, including Daft Pink.

Plus I have more blushes on the way to me, I'm such a blush whore.

Now I KNOW I definitely NEED hand finish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is such a gorgeous look for you, you look HOTTTT! Thanks for this FOTD ernie! I already have similar colors like natural flare (my wallets not complaining

) so I don't need that mes, but you just sold me on hand finish! I LOVE when you post these FOTDs because your cheek swatches are so clear and it helps us decide what we want and might not want. PLEASE do more FOTDs with this collection

 

[miss sha]

Woohoo! I've got my finances and whatnot in order so I'm good to go for this collection. Good thing, too, since I'm planning on 4 MSFs, 1 MB, and the 226. I'll either pick up some perm line things I want or buy some Sigma brushes. I definitely need more tapered blending brushes! I just have 217 for blending right now and I find that I did to overblend and my colors all lose definition.

I'm really excited for the MSFs now since I've changed the way I apply blush. I'm putting it in the hollows of my cheeks more now, instead of on my apples. I have huge chipmunk cheeks that are even larger when I smaller, so putting blush on top of them just draws even more attention to them. Now that I've found a way to put it on better I'm in LOVE with the blushes that I have.

As if having an e/s addiction wasn't bad enough!

Thanks, I think that's probably my favorite of the shadows.
