Re: Colour Forms Collection Discussion Thread
Can someone please explain the highlighters to me? And the... powder?
From my understand, the "circles" are the highlighters and the squares things are the powders? PLEASE correct me if I am wrong. And can someone explain their uses to me?
Thanks so much from now, I'm completely lost!

You can compare the richmetal higfhlighters to the cream color bases.
Richmetal Highlighter is a highlighter that can be used to create intense, multi-dimensional, metallic-looking effects on the skin.
The Colour Form Powders can be used as a blush, as a bronzer or as a highlighter as well. It depends on your skin tone.
HTH!

I am actually very excited for the powders.I was so upset with my heatherette BP that these look beautiful.I'm planning on getting both.I' hope they are like the barbie beauty powders from the BLM collection.The lipsticks are a cool idea but I have to see swatches first.

Thanks Audrey! I'm afraid they would disappoint as an eyeshadow, just like those metal-x thingies!

these are nothing like the BLM BPs. first off, these aren't beauty powders. these are mean to be used like bronzers. the difference between these and bronzers is that these have a mixture of colors, do you can make different color combinations by focusing more on one color. secondly, these aren't gonna have as much shimmer as the BLM BP. each color in the compact has a different level of shimmer, so again, you can customize the look that you'll get.

im sure you could use either as a blush. they're meant to give a sunkissed glow, like bronzers. but i'm sure it won't hurt to use them as a blush. i was just saying these aren't anything like the BLM BPs.

I'm more interested in Overrich piggies as well. I want to try some lippies from this collection and get the basic brush set (I don't have any travel size brushes)

I can never pass on pigments no matter how hard I try, lol. I have so many it's amazing but if a new color comes out the addiction raises it's head and says "must have...must buy", lol

I love this whole collection, I'm so glad Nordie's just upped my credit limit (although my bank account won't be)!
