Oh, I've tried many different bases: paints, paint pots, UDPP and Mehron aqua colour. They only one that sorta works in Mehron. I still don't think the MES are worth the trouble, but these black ones look really gorgeous. I might cave in at the end :/

Drat. My want list is getting bigger. Like, as in everything, except like two items.

I don't like, wear or buy lipstick, but I want that black lipstick!!! I'm also into cremesheens so I'm getting that one too. That's about it from this collection. I am so excited about this!

Thx! That's the reason why I love black e/s primers

And the same reason I want a black lipgloss to use with my red lipsticks

yeah, I'll have to try these MES with Fix+. I hope that makes them less chunky looking when applied.

I have three MES right now (Gallery Gal/Brightside, Fresh Green Mix, and Sea and Sky) and tbh, those are the only shadows I can get away with on my superinarush days - like when I don't have time to even mess with a primer and I only have time for a lid and crease color. Weird.

I am so ridiculously stoked for this collection

Ack, the MES thing is scaring me. I've never used them before but was shocked out messy they were when I lightly went to swatch the Colour Craft MES.

How do you girls use Fix+ with them?. Directly spray the brush then dip, or spray Fix+ over completed eye look?.

When use the MES wet I spray fix plus on the brush and then apply it. I have never sprayed it on the actual product itself.

I have seen the pics of Kim Kardashian in her black lipstick and I am convinced now that it is hot on her, not me. But the e/s I hope are the business.

Ooo now that I've seen these pics the MES look a lot like the Galaxy Glam shadows from Too Faced and I love those so I might have to get these. Here I thought i'd get away without getting anything from this collection
