Hi Winnie!

I've been busy and then went home to visit family and friends.
Hope everything is ok with you.

Yes Thrills is awesome and also quite unique, I'm liking it a lot and it;s very summery, even if here in Singapore is summer all year round!

Aww so you're still in Singapore? Which means you got to stay on in the end. That's awesome!

Hehe the fact that it's summery makes it even better, coz it totally complements Singapore weather!

I'm fine, thank you. Never been better.

I hope all is well with you too!

they still have this plus Flurry of Fun on the Nordy's site when I checked out the Dazzle Lippies from In the Groove. So if you missed out on Funbathing or Flurry of Fun and you are willing to pay the shipping cost of Nordy's you can still get it--hey the price has got to be better than ebay...(not affiliated)

(I already got Thrills because I love Temptali@s swatches!)

Ugghhh! I can't find my backup of Manish Palette.
I saw my Manish palette though which I used maybe 2 times.

I wonder what I can swap/trade for ML.

I got Manish lipgloss Pink Manish & Shine Manish
Manish Blush Pink Swoon & Devil.

I remember lining up at 730 am when the MAC store Soho released Mac Manish and I was the 1st person inside the Mac Soho store so i was able to get backups of the Manish collection. The 4th person in the store was told that the collection sold out already. Apparently, they were taking orders on the phone as well.

I want ML!!!

Honestly, I don't know why I love Get Away Bronze so much. I am a major collector of all things bronze. I'm like a moth to a flame when it comes to bronze.
But this blush is more flattering on me than about 98% of all my bazillion bronzers, or other bronze blushes.
I am very happy with it!

You know, I've been meaning to post this for so long...
I love Flurry of Fun over the lip stains, especially Full of Flare.
Since I had been using the stains so much, I wanted to look into the covergirl ones.
The CoverGirl Outlast lipstain number 430 is so close to Full of Flare.
It looks GORGEOUS under Flurry of Fun. Just Gorgeous.

Whoo hooo! I am pretty sure I'll be able to get hold of ML in a month. I found my backup of Manish Arora palette BNIB!

Since I've forgotten my old account name and password, I had to start all over again with the forum and swaps' requirements.

Hopefully I'd get a ML or 2 of it or ML + SR or Petticoat MSF, as swap/trade for my Manish Arora palette.

 

[riotlove]

i got sand and sun in the mail from the lovely flaminbird

can't effing wait to try it out.

i only need shimmermoss and i've got all the e/s yay!

now onward to find lazy day and beachbound. possibly thrills and funbathing but i'm more interested in the first two. oh and life's a breeze pencil, get away bronze and refined golden anddddd the bag. ugh my list is neverending. i hate it!

 

[peachsuns]

Good luck, Kareninanyc!

Finally summer has come to my area! When I got back to my car, the temperature inside was 112°F.

But it's perfect weather for the lovely TTB looks. Yay!

 

[liba]

Finally I had a manicure with In the Buff. I had the nails shaped into perfect almond shape, medium long, so they look like store mannequin hands. With that polish they look unreal!

All the girls in the salon were ogling my nails by the time they were done. I think I'm just going to keep them this color for the rest of the summer.

 

[Kareninanyc]

Thank you so much peachsuns! It's exciting to be able to do swap here soon.

Really? Only now has summer arrived in your area? Lucky you!

It has been miserable here in NYC since May!

This is turning out to be one long hot summer. Ugh!!!

Do you have any pics?

I've been thinking about going back to get In The Buff (assuming that it hasn't already sold out), but I haven't seen an amazing photo of it to make me go out and grab it.

I've heard the very hot temperature in NY. Wait, since May? How do you survive that?

The weather had been great here. Sunny, breezy, and low humidity. Not hot at all. Until this week. Hope the summer weather won't go extreme anywhere. I already miss our June weather.

I'm sure In The Buff will look gorgeous on you, Winnie.

For what it's worth--I LOVE In the Buff. I think it looks great with my skintone (NC 30). Scorcher didn't impress me but I was all over In the Buff and it looks as good on as I thought it would after seeing the bottle online.

Your skintone is pretty close to me (I'm NC35). However, I had nail polish on when I visited my counter on haul day, so the only way I could test out the polishes from this collection was to stick a piece of tape on my nails and paint over it. I know it isn't the most accurate way to test out a color, but In The Buff looked awful then. So I'm a bit apprehensive now. So, seeing a nice picture of it would really help give me the final push needed to go out and grab this nail polish. Hehe.

Btw I've been thinking a lot about Lazy Day lipstick (I think it will be a lot more wearable than the 2 pink lippies from In The Groove). I regret not getting it. Sigh. Anybody wants to get rid of theirs?

Aaawww!

Thanks, you are too sweet!

I didn't pay attention to the nail polishes for this collection, at all!
