My petticoat arrived today. It has got NO veining in it whatsoever

I do like the colour it gives though-a beautiful light pink.

Mine ended up being the exactly opposite, it has tons of veining so I have to wear it by it's self for blush because over blush it is too dark

I do love it though, but it makes me want one with less veining so I can still have both effects

^^^yeah i also have a Petticoat with lots of veining so it looks darker. I do love it though but it is a GREAT excuse to pick up another one that has less veining for when i want a lighter look

Have you checked the Clearance Bin for Warmed? I've seen it pop up there a bunch of times. And hey, surely you could use both.

It doesn't make me look oily, unlike Shimpagne and sometimes even Lightscapade, which do. I HIGHLY recommend this color!

i wanted petticoat butttt the ma applied it to my cheeks and it looked SO horrid. but then again.. for some reason, every time i ask them to apply a msf on me.. they pack it on like no other. i always end up wiping it off, i looked like a clown. i bought so ceylon and gold deposit without trying them on. they look great but gold deposit is sorta glittery.. i def like so ceylon A LOT

i have noticed some MAs tend to do that, I don't understand...everytime an MA tries something on me it looks bad, but when I do it myself, it's fine. It's kind of like when the hairstylist styles your hair then you go home and fix it the way you want it lol.

I agree, it looks so pretty on FOTD I've seen on people but when the MUA put it on me I wasn't sure if I should get Petticoat... especially since I have redness of my cheeks already due to acne

... I don't know if I should get it.

see that's why I absolutely fell in love with the salon i go to regularly.. when my stylist styles my hair i LOVE it, and sometimes can never reproduce the style myself

but i pay up the a** to see him haha

but i totally know what you mean... most MAs apply blush WAY too heavily on me and im like.. ok whoa. but i do have a few I regularly shop from who do it just right!

i dont understand why people didnt like the sheersheen powders. I think they are gorgeous and IMO not chunky at all. I know they are not too special or a must have but lovely for highlighter freaks! <3 them!

I don't think they are chunky but I prefer the finer powder of loose beauty powders.

Not really. It goes on much lighter with a gorgeous shimmer. However, it does look amazing over Love Joy.
