Gorgeous

Well, nearly a drawer full of my makeup storage is composed of Extra Dimension products now...



I'm still tempted by Double Definition EDSF, Flaming Chic EDB and Triple Impact EDES though

Edit: My two new favourite combos are Opalesse + Smoky Mauve in the crease, and Zestful + Modern Pewter I have one green eye and one pink one. I need to remember not to leave the house.

Thoese combos sound so beautiful.I have to try them!!!

Back to the brushes, am I the only one whose experienced fading?

It happens. It all depends on the type and batch of dye they use. Many of my 150s and 129s, and all of my 109s dye has faded.

IIm the same way! LOL Can't spend money on stuff, but can blow over a $100 on makeup in an instant. TSO, I wanted to report in that the hourglass 2 brush is soooo nice and picks up the color of the blushes beautifully.  I like it so much better than the split fibre brush in this collex.  I used it with Blazing  Haute. Now I don't get a lot of "color", but it does brighten the cheek area.  

It's a lovely brush for for foundation or BB cream, too. Blends very well, and it's so soft. It's my favourite brush.

I added the double Pro palette and inserts into my cart yesterday to buy with RiRi Woo. I prefer having my makeup in palettes. It's so much easier to organize and I can see everything at once. I think I have enough single shadows now to start transferring into palettes. What are your tips to depot?

Oh CC...I LOVE depotting, which I'm sure has some deep psychological meaning. We'll leave my husband the shrink to deal w/that. I agree that palettes are much easier to use, organize & store. Anyhoo, I like to keep it real simple---no flat iron, hair dryer, blah, blah, blah. Tools: One small stiff paring knife, one pair sturdy tweezers and one long-handle zippo lighter. Rubbing alcohol, cotton buds (ala our Buick) to complete the task. The first step is to separate the inner eyeshadow holder/pan from the outer casing (pot). With the eyeshadow pot open, this is achieved by inserting the tip of the paring knife into the line/crack that separates the inner housing from the outer pot. I've found this happens with less resistance and is much easier than it used to be, for some reason. Once this is done, set the outer casing aside. Grasp the inner pot and shadow between the tweezers with one hand and hold the lighter flame (not too high) to the bottom of the eyeshadow pan. Hold the flame for 30-45 seconds and then look at the bottom, which will show a small circle of the metal pot, as the black plastic melts. Put the shadow on a flat surface, and with the tip of the paring knife, push to dislodge the shadow. If you have to use a lot of force to do this, stop and again put the flame on the pan, because too much force could cause the eyeshadow to crack. Once you've dislodged the eyeshadow, set both the inner and outer housing on a heat resistant surface. Wipe the bottom of the eyeshadow with alcohol to remove residual glue and pop it into your palette. This is so easy. I have 160 MAC eyeshadows in palettes, and I depotted at least 1/3 of them.

Your question was quite timely because I just depotted Parrot, which was gifted to me along with a double pro palette with eyeshadow & blush inserts. I'm also depotting six blushes, that will add two the four Pro Blush Palettes in my stash.

 

[Medgal07]

No more shadow til when? Next week? c'mon now, you know you couldn't resist. LOL

You know me too well Pretty, but I surprised myself..It's Friday and I still have not purchased an of the EDESs. I was gifted Parrot and I purchased Banafsaji, Hajar Karim and Farasha. I think I'm done for a minute!

AWESOME haul Gracie-----ENJOY!

Just got home with my goodies, I can't wait to try them all!



I also got a jumper and a dress. There was another dress I really liked, but I told myself that £48 was too much, despite the fact that I just spent 3 times that

MAC makes my logic go weird.

I just picked up Def Def (the darker shade in StF was way too oranger on me), At Dusk, Flaming Chic, Opalesse, Zestful, Smoky Mauve and the face brush. Yikes. Still thinking about Triple Impact and Dimensional Blue.

NIce haul Jennyap!!

Have fun with your goodies!

How odd.

I wash my brushes daily and have not experienced any fading whatsoever.

 

[Medgal07]

Amazing!

Yep, the two quads and Rhythm l/g. Lavender Whip and Eclair from BB are there too ( and samples of Cheery Cherry, Mooncake and the teal glitter that the sweet SA threw in completely unprompted)!
