Outrageously fun is a fun pink. I can pull this off better than that candy yumyum
its BLUE and cool i can see the purple tones in it and so glad its a cremesheen..a matte or amplified wouldnt have worked on my complexion



im nc45
c7 in face and body
SUPERB tho is freaking AMAZINNNNNGGGGGG
and i have a super tan just got back from bahamas (im going to turn into a old coach bag if i dont stay out the damn sun)
and my coworker was like it just GLOWS, she loves it also
i love it this texture is great. this is my first extra dimension skin finish btw

what brush is best to apply?

i just used a lil with my pinky and its so freaking smooth

I think I might have to buy out the entire stock of Ready To Party, I'm in love with this color...so far, I've tried it over NYX Milk and Urban Decay Morphine and both are amazing. It also looks great as a cheek highlighter but I'm trying to not use it for that because of how little is in the pot. I'm really excited to use it on the lid with Divine Blue in the crease.

I totally caved and bought RtP after reading this

. I'm dying to see it as a cheek highlight now!

 

[elegant-one]

Are they soft?

Yes, the set I have seems very soft.

I like using the 130 brush. It's dense so it picks up the ED formula well, and it's small enough for me to target where I want to highlight.

Has anyone's Belk order shipped yet? I ordered at around 10 pm on the 24th and got the confirmation immediately, but still no shipping notice. I called and they said nothing's on backorder, but couldn't give me a date on when it would ship.

I've ordered a few things from other retailers in the last two days and all have confirmed that my items were sent out (including Sephora, which is weird because they usually take 2-3 days to get things out). I'm getting a little worried, but I am impatient...

I definitely did WAYYYY more damage than I was expecting. Soo glad the next few collections will be quiet for me.

SIDENOTE: My Nordie's girl said they are taking pre-orders for the Mascara sale they are having buy 2 get 1 free its with all counters too, not just MAC. It's on November 3rd.

Ok... So here are my things and this doesn't include the 4 others I picked up already (Superb, Small Vanity, Beauty and Outrageously Fun) and my girl gave me tons of those cute bags.


Devine Desire: Paramour Pink
Purple Shadow set - I initially didn't want it but I don't really have any purple in my stash so I got it.
GlamourDaze L/S
Talk Softly to Me L/G
Catch my Eye FL
A Natural Flirt EDES (my girl said they only got one in, which I didn't pre-order, so I went to Macy's and got it, Thankful I have 3 MAC stores/counters in my mall)
Round Midnght EDES
Phloof! regular ol' shadow
Raven Liner
Mystery Liner
Whisper of Guilt EDSF




edited to add the date of the sale and the names of all that got.

Can you post pics and a short review of the Paramour Pink set? I've only seen swatches once and I'm so curious about it!

I use mac 188 brush. The texture is perfect. I wonder if they will dry out.

You bet! I'll wear it to work tomorrow and let you know how it does.

Princess Sarah posted the photo above, which is what made me change my order from Coral to Pink. I tried it real quick last night and its super pretty.

I was extremely close to popping over to MAC after I finished training at work today to snag a lipstick, but I had to reign myself in. What little money I have right now is reserved for clothes.

It was that same pic that caught my interest but I'm dying to see more

I also think it looks good, but hey, people have different ideas of what looks good and what doesn't.

Tropical Mist also received a lot of trashing from the blogosphere but that hasn't stopped me loving it

True

 

[Mac-Guy]

MAC-Guy,

The MUA @ local MAC store told me to use FE on the lower lash line as well.

I haven't dipped into mine yet but I'm wondering how would it look above Dark Diversion?

You know - as a wing above DD?

I haven't tried that combo, but it sounds good to me.

I find it easier to apply on the lower lash line, but with a bit of practice, you should be able to apply it evenly - and winged - on the lid. Let me know how it works out for you

 

[Paisly]

jack black was better than eos? I Might have to try it again. I was not impressed

EOS worked for you? It did nothing for me. I'm gonna try Jack Black too!

 

[Paisly]

Oh dear. T hates FE too.

With all the negative reviews I'm starting to regret buying it. I wish I'd got TD&H EDES instead.

Aww. Don't regret buying it off of reviews It's beautiful! Mine is wonderful. Have you tried it yet? My SA Applied it with a thicker Eyeliner brush and it looked amazing! Not for everyday wear... but you can really make this special!

I ordered yesterday and got a Shipped and tracking number email later that night.

i was too intimidated first time around to pick these up. i thought they were glittery
but they are NOT at all and i just blended lightly with my finger
BEAUTIFUL sheen. I am in love!

 

[Naynadine]

Is Brun from the Neutral palette really as bad as in T's swatch?
