Whew!! I finally waded through the over-400 messages that i had not yet read on this board!
My package with my four ED eyeshadows -
Zestful,
Opalesse,
Triple Impact, and
Smoky Mauve - and the 128 Split Fiber Cheek Brush is scheduled to arrive on Friday, April 12, but sometimes
comes a day early.
Truly, the duo-chrome iridescent pearl of these ED shadows just does not show up well in photos. They are really GORGEOUS in person.
After reading that some people found a "waxy" coating on the blushes, i suspect that was making them all look a bit pale when i tested them. I thought something was up, but i figured it was my ignorance in choosing the wrong brush for an ED blush. Sooooo,
Bareness and
At Dusk are back on my to-buy list.
And i am STILL all a-flutter for ALL the ED SFs. I suspect that
Definitely Defined will be the most "natural" for me. But i LOVE playing with colors, even ones that might be "wrong" for my coloring, my age, and my style - or, rather, my complete lack of style
- like both
Stratus and
Earthshine from Heavenly Creature which on my pale face make for high drama, but they were too beautiful to skip. So i may cave and get all three EDSFs.
I'm just nervous because these hit the stores the same day as the PRO-only Nudes and Metallics. And i will have to get to my local MAC before opening if i can't get the blushes and EDSFs i want on-line. And then i'll have to trek across the Bay and across town to the PRO store to test the Nudes and Metallics - and hope there are still some products i like left!
Ah, the things we are willing to do to get our makeup fix.
