Not sure...it may be my application....However as with you...Sharkskin lasts forever.

Interesting... Oh well.

LOVE sharkskin. The only shade stick I haven't used yet is Penny. I will give that a shot tomorrow.

Lemon Chiffon is the shiz. I absolutely love it.

But I agree with everyone else, its time for new Paint Pots and I am raising my hand for new Fluidliners.

OMG I love Gladiola so much!! I wore it yesterday, and I forgot how much I adore it!! Wish I would have gotten a backup!!

SG is still in my mind too...I want to make that puppy work!!

Bubbles can be worn alone, it looks nice with a sheer pink gloss on top and it makes glosses look like they are in the tube. I didn't really love the lipglass "love rules" on my pigmented lips, but love it on top of bubbles.

I think I found one with a crapload of lavender too...lol

I think more of the purple veining seems to help a bit with pigmentation on this one, whereas less would make it more of a highlighter shade...but still pretty either way!!

 

[TISH1124]

^^^ Now that is one of the prettiest PT's I have ever seen

 

[ABB113]

^^ Agreed! I wish mine looked like that!

 

[MzzRach]

I'm wishing I had gotten PT instead of Moon River. I may return the Moon River I just got and get Perfect Topping instead.

My last order was a total bust! Ah well, can't win 'em all.

^^^The Duos......didn't work so great for me...little to glittery

Yeah, I though I would dig Moon River, but after trying it once, I know it will just sit and not get used. Back it goes. Hopefully PT is still in stock and I can just exchange it.

 

[TISH1124]

yes they are pretty much still in stock...surprisingly!! Get a pretty one ...it's worth the few dollars more....

 

[MelodyAngel]

I totally agree^^

And yes, the Duos are glitterbombs...

Agreed... I love my paintpots and chromlines too! Much more than my shadesticks and they last so much longer!!! It was easy for me to skip them, my wallet was very happy....

ok i wil def skip grand duos then, as price wise there is only $4 difference between them and the MSF in NZ! MSF it is.......

 

[Asphyxia]

My PT has like one strip of purple. It looks like an ashy dome mess. I might take it back

So can you wear this alone, or do you still need a blush under?

 

[kiss]

The grand duos are awesome, not glitterbombs at all.

. Some may have very fine glitter particles that you can see on the pan, but they don't look glittery at all on the skin, just a shimmery sheen as a good MSF would give...

I am on the Gladiola bandwagon as well. I have three tubes

LOL I was on the hunt for a stage lipstick for dance since my casper like complexion washes right out under stage lights.

I like it with pink fish lightly over it to add a soft moisture and shine to it, but lately I've switched to putting Tasty l/g over it. WOOO Love it

I would love to try it with a dazzleglass but my hair would get stuck in it while da

ncing and that would not be too attractive. It's bad enough when it lands in my mouth
