^^ Cool thinking, I like it when people get sensible about it. I'm gonna be a copy cat and do one to:
Eyeshadows: none. The 88 palette really has everything that a broke student needs.
Lipsticks: Lollipop Lovin cuz I've been wanting that one for ages. No others because I'll be picking up 3 from new Cremesheens
Lipglasses: none, they look funny and I'll be picking up some cremesheen ones (Hamsterglass!!)
MSF: I dont own any yet and these two look gorgeous, plus I'm pale enough (NC20) and hopefully they'd show up on me.
Shadesticks: I dont think I can be bothered. Yes, they look pretty, but I use my paint pots all the time and frankly I'd rather invest in some lip products from MAC

the peach e/s is love and will be mine [if it is indeed peach]. passing on lollipop loving, because i already have it. i'll prob get bubbles cause elegant one loves it, so i prob will too. i don't know about saint german. from what i've heard it's a dead on dupe for melrose mood and i already have it [plus a backup].
oh wow! i've only just realised that lollipop loving is part of this collection!!! it's one of my fave lippies and was worried that i'll run out because i only bought one when it was released with heathertte!! eee i'm so excited now! i'm hoping this collection is released in the uk! if not i'll be asking nicely for somebody to ship me one over!

I think it was with the color abstraction in 1997.
What's worse is that I just got rid of that original one, it finally just smelled too yucky.

Oh my God …Couple of times a month when my DH is watching what I call “boys only movie" you know the one with too much action and no story) I take this big tray from my kitchen take it to my bedroom, then put a lot of my make up on it (brushes, pens, pigments, SS, L/S ….) add q-tips, cotton balls, Kleenex, alcohol wipes, baby wipes & brush cleaner then go next to him and start my OCD ritual, I wish you guys can see his face just as much as I wish that I can read what is going through his mind …

So I realized all the caps are different.

I bought it from you!!! And, I love it to pieces, so it isn't going unloved!!

I agree, if Elegant loves bubbles, I'll get it. I can tell you for certain that Saint Germain is nowhere close to Melrose Mood. St. Geramain is a much brighter pink.
***ATTENTION*** Aquavert does not in any shape or form resemble Warm Chill or Juxt at all. Warm Chill is very light and sheer on my eyes and Juxt almost comes off with a yellow tint. I use aquavert constantly b/c it is the perfect green just bordering on teal. It is love. Of course, Aquadisiac is by far my first love, but this is a great second!!!
CAN'T. HANDLE. TRI-COLORED GLOSSES IN SQUARE TUBES. OMG, Those are freaking me out.
The MSF's, I'll have to wait and see in person. I will wait to see if the shadesticks go on easily or will rip off my lids.
The shadows, not sure about.
Right now just Lollipop Lovin' and Bubbles (because Elegant is brilliant)!!

Hey you gals, I've been on steroids for bronchitis and I can't sleep, so here ya go! Click to enlarge.
Club
Top to bottom; Warm Chill, Aquavert
Left to Right; Warm Chill, Aquavert

Left to Right; Warm Chill and Aquavert over Greenstroke p/p
As you can see the 2 shadows are different enough to justify having both!

It does look awfully similar to Warm Chill though. I've seen come comparison pics where they look alike, and some where they look really different.

You're pretty fair too, right? I'm a NC15. I'm going to do swatches with juxt.
I usually have to use Greenstroke p/p with Aquavert for it to "pop"

I am almost 100% sure now that I am loving this whole collection & am buying everything. With the exception of Lollipop Loving,Club (which I have) and Stars & Rockets (since its a perm).

Then Dear Cupcake if it’s not unique I’m not getting it (I have so many pinks from MAC) I think Sugarshot will be a nice beigy nothing special highlights (I have a palette full of HL so I can do without it) I have Club and Star’s rocket So I’m getting: hopefully ONE Lipsticks: Between BBR, HK and Cream Team I think I can skip the lipsticks from this collection (I already have lollipop lovin) So I’m getting: NONE MSF I need to try these on, they look beautiful but also light for my NC30 skin, if I can only use them as highlight then I’ll skip (I have enough HL between the previous MSFs, Belightful, 2 Loose Beauty Powders, Sculpt & Shape in addition to 2 from NARS,1 BB, 1 Chanel & 1 Benefit that will last me a lifetime). If I can use them as blush but they are too glittery/shimmery I will also pass cause no matter how much I like them once I’m out of the store I rarely use them. Finally they have to be unique and not even close to any MSF that I own. So I’m getting: too early to tell maybe Both maybe None Shadestick I want the lemon chiffon & butternutty l(BN looks like something that I can wear everyday) Cake-shop I wasn’t that thrill about, but I keep hearing how green is opposite of red and it neutralize it so if this has enough green will it neutralize the red on my eyelids??!! I need to check this further if it’s going to work I think this could be my HG eye base (painterly is to pink for me, I use shimmersand but I wish that there is something lighter). The orangey one not enough info for me to decide, Red Velvet I’m not sure because I don’t wear a lot of pinks to justify buying it and I already have Fresco Rose to use under pinks) So I’m getting: about 2-4 (I use a SS or Paint Pot everyday so I’m fine with this) Lipgoss I’m going to try the first one on the right (the brown/yellow) if it looks good I’ll get it as a fun item. Yikes this turned out to be a long message sorry guys but it calmed me down so thanks for reading. |
