Come to think of it, I didn't even try it anywhere else

I'm always trying new concealers. I do love the MUFE full coverage concealer because its waterproof. I like the lift one too

Jeez!! Really? I wanted to try this! Maybe I wont...I wear lenses too!

 

[FemmeFatale]

My under eye circles have been SCARY lately. I need like spackle to cover them!

 

[Ursula]

Sorry about the crappy pics but I thought I'd show you a little of how I've used the SB haul (that I was NOT gonna buy!).

Believe it or not, that is the black mattene over with a little Night moth liner and some Queen's Sin in the center of the lip and a touch of Bling Black over the center as well.

On the eyes is that pale gold fluid line as a base from a couple Christmases ago, then GBA over that, then I darkened it for the evening with the greasepaint stick in the crease and lines with GBA under and lots of black liner on water line upper and lower. Put a touch of the gold from the MUFE Flashbox in the inner rim. I am loving this stuff. Here's the list of what I walked out with .

All four MES (B2M for 2 of them)
Night Media Mattene (2)
Night Violet Mattene (2)
Nightmoth Liner
Bling Black Glimmerglass (should have got 2, this stuff rocks hard!)
Greasepaint Stick (love this, should have got 2)
Seriously Hip N/L
Dazzlecream in Amorous (been lemming this forever, Cream Allure, Soft Dazzle and Sublime Allure

I swear there was more than that but I can't figure out what it would have been. Anyway, I am soooo in love with this collection. I never would have thought but black lips are so much fun and the Night Violet is just a GORGEOUS color! And the MES are truly amazing, so fine and ver wearable in my opinion. Of course, I don't mind going out looking a little wild.

 

[elegant-one]

Ursula - you are so beautiful! Those colors are lovely on you

Night Violet x2 - so many bought 2 - its getting the love it deserves

I wear Rigid Gas Perms. The eye doctor said, yep...it embedded right into the lense. I think with continual cleaning they'll be ok - well I hope so

The Full coverage is nice. I have to layer my concealers

I think MUFE concealers are pretty good. I love their foundations and before the HD concealer, all other concealers failed me. You should try the concealer someplace else because it is so good. It's so easy to work with and there's great color matching. Under my eyes, though, it settles into some lines.

I have hereditary circles under my eyes. I've been told by MA's that they look fine, but I am super paranoid. I am my biggest critic and that's why I have yet to buy contacts. I hide behind my eyeglasses. I'm currently using a sample of philosophy's eyehope and I think I see a difference. I am going to use it for 6 weeks and make a decision. I am on week two so far.

I've been coming to terms with my hereditary circles. I have decided to get contacts by the end of this year, but I will not throw away my glasses. You know, for those days when I'm really not feeling myself. Thankfully, aside from the circles, I am pretty darn cute.

I recently started wearing Illamasque Rich Liquid foundation which I purchased in my shade and a shade that much lighter than mine. I've used the lighter shade under my eyes and I am amazed by the difference. It really takes the circles out completely. Have you tried a really light foundation or concealer to disguise the circles? I got the idea from Kevyn Aucoin when I saw that some of his clients started with seriously dark circles and ended with not circles a'tall. Amazing technique.

 

[shontay07108]

Thanks for the tip Ursula. I may try a lighter concealer and see what happens.

 

[LMD84]

Ursula your look is amazing! i think the lips are particularly fabulous!

and thanks to Erine for showing the pic of the full eye - very cool! i wish i worked in a job where i could go crazy with my make up like that! however i do plan on re-creating Julia's look for my birthday night out next month!

 

[Yagmur]

I can't wait to get my hands on Style Black. I want all the MES for sure.

But I don't know about the Blackfire Glimmerglass.

I tried to dupe Blackfire Glimmerglass with a Black Eyeliner and Funtabulous d/g, in my new FOTD. I really liked the outcome, but where should I wear this Lips?!

Take a look:
My very first try on a Halloween-Mask

Oh, that sucks! I love their new concealor. The lift concealor is fantastic, too, though. I still have to use it with MAC's Studio Sculpt, though because it's a little too pink. Between the primer and concealors, I use 3-4 to cover my dark circles!! It's all in the layering!

 

[traxter]

I really love this collection. It's so glamorous! Good job.

The only problem I had was with the lip products. They were very hard to apply because they were so sheer and I couldn't get an even finish that looked good on my lips.

Also this collection can be very wearable for night time looks.

Also, for those of you who couldn't get the GPS or didn't want to, another alternative might be MUFE Aqua Black W/P cream e/s. No little shimmers like GPS but I like it for a smokey eye base and it does not budge. HTH. P.S. Erine, I was going to skip Cinderfella but after seeing those pics , I have to have it. Hope my store still has it in stock.

I am only popping on for a minute ...The Concert was GREAT!!!! He was sooooo good...he did almost a 2 hour show and he incorporated the comedy and singing into one versus seperate....It was sold out ...He changed outfits so many times I thought he was related to Beyonce...But it was a A+++++ I will be there again next year!!! Ok I am back to bed....

He did a full Michael Jackson tribute...song lots of his songs showed old screen clips..It was Great!!

Go Style Black or whatever thread I am in
