I've met too many MA's who acted like it was an imposition to try anything on.

Amen to this! I don't care whether you are animal, vegetable or mineral - if you know makeup and know how to put looks together, that's all that matters.

I agree! I've seen your FOTD's and you're just genius, on top of being gorgeous.

Oh, I agree - I was just over on the HK and KK Part II thread talking about Tippy - I was able to get a backup at a CCO a few months ago - so glad I did! Happy not to have to worry about running out of a fave blush now!

My Bough Grey has a definite green tint...maybe it has to do with ur undertone? or what u pair it with? I also added pics of me wearing Blooming Lovely for a look...just to show that ladies of color shudn't be scared of it at all (I'm NC45 for reference)....

Girl, those are some gorgeous lips.....and your whole 'look' is amazing! Quite the talent you have! Can't wait to see your other FOTDs!

Thanks doll!

I think mine are small - I would rather have yours. Can I make my eyes look like that, other than plastic surgery

can I fake it with the makeup...I would love to see a tutorial on this. Thanks!

I finally got around to trying most of my LOL items. Blooming Lovely and Every Hip are both amazing lippies. Ever Hip doesn't look at all like it does in teh tube, just a gorgeous light coral colour, the perfect coral I've been looking for. Blooming Lovely is pretty too, but like Gaga, I can only apply this lightly.

Finally, I tried Birds & Berries. This is a really pretty dusty teal blue shade. It's definitely a lot more wearable for me than the brighter teals, like Parrot or Cool Heat, but still very much a teal.

I made a visit to my counter, and they are selling out of everything!! The lipsticks are all sold out, as are the glosses, except for A Different Groove...Both beauty powders, and Prim and Proper...also, Bough Grey and B&B are gone as well!! My MA said that they are not going to get more LOL either...

They still have plenty of Spring Colour Forecast stock though...I just bought a backup of Ripe Peach today. They had both, Ripe Peach and Azalea Blossom. I don't recall seeing anything with a sold out sticker except for the quad 4.

I really wanted to get Blooming Lovely, but I ended up buying thier last Gaga instead!

 

[TeresitaMC]

^ I went to a MAC today and they had two Azalea Blossom testers and a Ripe Beach tester with the Sold Out sticker beside them. Oh how sad

I pretty much stuck with my initial list. The 3 lipglasses (PHS, FF and EA).
I love them all. PHS even more so than I thought.

I swatched a few of the e/s but didn't want to pay attention to them as Shell Pearl was calling me!!

The MA applied it on me and then with Well Dressed blush over top. We looked in the mirror of the part of the store with 'the best lighting' and I was in awe

But whenever I looked in a compact mirror I felt like I could really see my pores. I never seen this sight before lol. At home now it's not as bad. I will have to try it on again

Bough Grey, while I do sort of want it, I will wait for Gazette Grey. Oh well. And Birds and Berries, as mentioned, it may be able to be duped with the Urban Decay Book of Shadows Vol. II...not sure yet.

Of the ones I thought could possibly work on me...Frankly Fresh was just plain ugly (my pigmented lips may be the problem there), Blooming Lovely was downright laughabe, and Ever Hip was ok but I much prefer similar-but-different shades like Made With Love. They all look great on you though only1angel, tho I agree with everyone including you on Peachstock not being the best....I've never been a fan of that one on myself either.

Thank you ladies for all the kind words! They are much appreciated. I am really enjoying all my new goodies. I even ordered some more to go along with them. I decided to pick up Bough Grey and Dame's Desire since I am apparently weak as of late. I am also now seriously considering Summer Rose. It looks so pretty, and I've seen so many paler ladies rave about it. Maybe I am missing out.......

Don't feel alone girl! I skipped B&B and I will wait for Gazette Grey also and not look back!

I'm at home with a bad cold, but I had to try only1angel's Silverthorn-look nevertheless - I spend the day either in bed or on the sofa, feeling rotten, but at least looking very pretty!

Yay for wearing make-up at home!

And, only1angel - that look is fabulous!!!!!!!!

I'm so tempted to go and do my makeup, despite that I'm going to be at home studying all day. But I'm trying to resist, because I think I've noticed my skin looking better when it gets to "rest" from makeup for a while.
