I think it would be the mask, not the exfoliator causing a problem but I love how the mask feels.

Sometimes it just takes a little while for our face to get used to a new product so I'm not giving up on the mask yet. Lets hope it'll change for the better!

i was able to use Gilt By Association MES today (used it wet on a 239 brush over Shimmersand shadestick)

OMFG!

Its so great! when i swatched it in the store i though it was just pretty, i guess i bought it on impulse. Its so much better when used wet, its one of those colors that i think can stand on their own in a smokey eye with black liner and mascara.

Looks like Rihanna is on the Style Black train too!! I just love her!! Looks like she's wearing Night Violet with Blackfire glimmerglass. I'd love to see her rocking the MES!!

^^ I just posted her wearing the matte version in another thread...Looks HOT!!!!

I wound up getting the VAE, Young Punk and Baby Goth Girl. I LOOOOVE EVERYTHING!!! I want to go back and get Blue Flame and Cinderfella but I doubt it'll be in stock next week.

Today I had a purple eyeshadow look and made a liner with YP by first lining my eyes with black liner, spritzing some Fix+ on an angled brush, dipping it into the MES and then applied it over the black liner on the upper lashline.

Hotness.

Oh and I know I've said this before but how freakin awesome is the VAE?! I think we need a smiley for that!!

Me either! Not giving up yet. I held off on buying backups though.

what liner are you ladies wearing with night violet?

OFF-Topic Alert ...

Is there anyone that loves, Strobe Blossom Tinted Lip Conditioner as much as I do? I swear I reach for that crap in the middle of the night...Not sure why I bother buying l/s since I wear it everyday almost

Hi, ladies. I ordered Young Punk and Gilt by Association and LOVE them--was very pleasantly surpised. I jsut ordered the other 2 as well (+ Blood red L/S, Feline, several dazzleglass cremes....yikes). I would have gotten the scult duo but I use Harmony blush for sculpting/MSFs for highlighting and am happy with those.

Here is Young Punk over Two Faced Second Base matte e/s primer. I used the black greasepaint stick as liner and Seedy pearl (permanent) to smoke it out under the brow--that's it. And Cover Girl Lash Blast mascara in black.

Tish - honest to God I was thinking the same thing when I read that about SB

Well.. I can't share the love, the Strobe Tinted Lip Conditionner is the only thing from MAC my lips can't stand... they shrink dry in 5 min with it.

That said.. I'm still a religious user of Pink Fish... love that thing.

 

[TISH1124]

I LOVE PF...but sometimes out and about the tube is just more convenient ...And Strobe Blossom is the only one I like of all the Strobe TLC's...I get so many compliments on the color every time I wear it

Thanks, so sweet of you! There is just that one counter that we have, so I couldn't run to another store. But thankfully there's ebay. Of course it's little more expensive buying them there, but atleast I will somehow get the stuff. I have to be patient and wait a little longer to play with my products. And fortunately I get over my Mac-sorrow pretty quickly when thinking positive!

I can't believe it, I was there few hours later when the shop opened and everything I saw was sold out-stickers. Just like with Makeup art collection! Only thing left was the GPS and that I wasn't even planning to get. Then in my little misery I thought I don't want to leave empty handed, so I bought the f*king greasepaint stick. It better rock my world! Should I be there in the morning waiting them to open or what? How is this possible? If this is not enough, I was so shocked that I forgot to buy feline (dsquared was released also today). Not my Mac-day. Thanks for letting me cry out here, I have nobody in real life that would understand this Mac-sadness.

Thats horrid!! So sorry you didnt get your things...Why don't you trying getting a CP from someone...probably a lot cheaper than Ebay

Night Violet is now showing sold out on the MAC site. Sadly, VAE & VATM are still showing "coming soon".

lol... well, that's the final answer then. But dangit, I was telling myself I don't need Night Violet or any of the glimmerglasses! At least I've got my Young Punk... can't wait till Saturday to use it!
