No one loves you more than I

was by there today to check out the MUFE HD Invisible Cover Foundation, the stuff is all that it claims to be and more OMG!!!! disappears into your skin

I swatched 3 colors (Im an NC20)

110 Pink Porcelain (for porcelain skin with pink undertones)
115 Ivory (for light skin with pink undertones)
117 Marble (this is the one that once blended in works the best for me - described as: for light skin with yellow undertones)
Altough, the 115 (even if a tad pink) would work as well. The 118 which was sold out, but the tester was available, was too dark. If I could blend the 115 & the 117 it would be like WOW for me ;-)

ok in that order 110-->115-->117

from top to bottom: 117, 115, 110

Ahhh my god I LOVE bruges, I haven't been there in so long. Its the most beautiful city I've ever been too. I haven't been for the christmas market etc but my parents have, the photos were beautiful!!

I THINK they were 17 euros... but don't count me on that. I'd have to check the Sephora website, they're not cheap! Last time i got e/s #92, mist & fix, a few sephora brushes, and some amazing plastic drawers from carrefour like all the american girls have!

For everybody's information, I just got an email from Makeup Provisions about the #92 Matte Purple and they told me they won't be getting new stock for atleast a few months.

I suppose I'll have to get hold of this some other way.

Ok i was COMPLETELY wrong about the MUFE eyeshadow prices in Sephora... #92 is 11.90 euros. some of the other shadows are more expensive? 16.30? Weird..

Fard à Paupières de Make Up For Ever sur Sephora.fr, parfumerie en ligne.

anyone know the closest MUFE/Sephora to Gard de nord, Paris? I'm thinking of going to paris via eurostar on Monday. Or can I get the metro up to champs elysee and go to the one around there?

Ive never been to france.

I've just looked at the webpage and guessing from my dodgy French

I think the refills might be 11.90 EUROS and the compact eyeshadows 16.30 EUROS. They have #92 listed twice as is probably the case with the other colours too.

HTH

Your best bet is to just go to the champs elysee... From what I remember around the Gard de Nord is just basically typical 'stationy' shops like you get at Victoria/Charing Cross in London... not much around them etc. Quite random you're thinking of going to paris on monday haha

Thats the list of them in Paris - SEPHORA - Magasins

there isn't one in gard de nord but champs elysee there is !

its lucky i speak broken french lol

Do you mean the le shuttle?? if so, seriously, the EASIEST thing in the world!! The tunnel and cite europe were built side by side for easy access for brits (well, not the sole reason) and all you have to do is follow the signs to cite europe... its harder from the boat. When i go on tuesday i'll find out the signs for you!

Thank u Vocaltest, our lovely french correspondent! lol...

Yeah so lastminute.com! Just thought it would be better to go during week whilst I have day off cos its sooo expensive to go on weekends. I am so desperate for the HD MUFE foundation. We need to start a Bring Sephora Back to the UK petition!

I would be SO up for that! I was gutted when they left the UK! LOL my friends refuse to go on holidays with me if I plan on going to Sephora!

If it makes you guys feel any better, in New Zealand:
- The prices are even more ridiculous than they are in the UK
- We don't even have a MAC website to order off at ALL (not even the Australian one will deliver items here!)

Having said that though, there are 3 MAC stores within 25 mins of my house, so I can hardly complain too much...
