Make Up For Ever (MUFE) Discussion

[Simply Elegant]

I want every single HD blush.

I use the shine on powder, the loose one, for a highlight or mixed with a pressed powder but I use matte velvet foundation.

i hope you will like it this time. if you can't use it as a blush, maybe you can mix it with flash color or the new aqua cream as eyeshadow, lipstick, lip gloss, etc.

I got an idea reading the temptalia review for these blushes. I think I will spread a drop on my hand and dip my brush into it. Just dropping a bit on my brush didn't work. I will use the back of my hand to "warm it up".

i just bought mufe #93 - I'm not too crazy about the color on my skintone. What base do you guys recommend to the get the pan-color? I'm a NC20 asian skintone, I think. I've never been color matched because I never wear foundation.

I like to do mermaid inspired eyes with No.93 and other blue green shades. I use Kelly Green pigment as my base first and it ties it all together beautifully

I can't wait to do this combo tomorrow: Deep Truth by Mac over MUFE cream shadow liner in blue (forgot what number it is). I used it as a liner a couple of pages back. I bought deep truth a few weeks ago and HATED it! It didn't show well on me at all. It wasn't the intense blue I was hoping for. A few hours ago I thought I'd try this Mac/MUFE combo on my hand and it was to die for! I will be rocking this tomorrow and I will post a pic!

I got nip slip blush about a week ago. I'm in LOVE! It's the perfect natural flush, it blends so easily and stays ALL day. It is fantastic with my tinted moisturizer. The combo makes it look like my face actually looks like that! No crazy shimmer, or cakeyness at all. LOVE.

 

[shontay07108]

Ok here's the same blue shadow/liner I posted a couple of pages back. This time I put it on my lid and patted Deep Truth by Mac over it. Simple look. I just put Loud and Lovely cremesheen on the lips. Got compliments all day.

 

[elementaire]

lovely! What an awesome color.

 

[genduk26]

Shontay, you look so gorgeous.

 

[shontay07108]

This what I bought today:
Aqua eyes pencils in 2L (gorgeous rich brown) and 9L (to die for gold!)
#60 shadow (The best matte navy blue you will ever find)
#126 shadow (A shimmery champagne, will make an awesome highlighter)

These are the things I bought from the NYC boutique yesterday. They FINALLY put up the gold collection for sale. However, 2 of the metal pigments were sold out. At least I got the one I wanted most. It's incredible. It's like a liquid almost. hella intense and creamy. The pencil is to die for. It's an intense black with gold shimmer throughout. And of course I got 2 more shadow/liners. I settled on Orange and Fuchsia. They are incredible. I will slowly collect them all.

I'm wanting the cream liners soooo badly. You have NO idea how I want to just reach into the monitor and snatch them from you! LOL! Seriously I will be grabbing as many as I can when I get home to NYC to visit the parents. Think they will take me straight to the boutique straight from the airport? BTW Shontay can you swatch the pigment please?

I got that swatch for you tomorrow.

 

[mac_aiken]

Shontay, are these liners new or are they flash colors? I just saw some preliminary pics of MUFE summer collection and it shows some paint pot type products in amazing colors. Have you seen these?

 

[shontay07108]

Yes, mac_aiken that's what these are. They are MUFE's version of paint pots, but totally more awesome. if you go back a page or two, there's pics of me wearing the blue one with Deep Truth over it. Oh and a few pages before that, I have product pics from the display at the mufe boutique.

Shontay you look gorgeous!!! I love these! I will have to trek to NYC I guess to visit the store......

I'm still working out my technique with these - I have Nip Slip too - along with Walk of Shame (#4) and Smooth Talker (#13) which is really light.

I sometimes get 'skipping' when I apply it - I put a dab on my hand and swirl my 188 brush in it and apply - I think the bristles in the 188 are too far-spaced apart as I'm not happy with the result. I may try to use my 165 and see what happens. I'm also not happy with just using my finger to apply.

Probably just need to keep experimenting - I've never been too much of a cream blush girl, but I like the MAC in Lilyland cream blushes quite a bit.

Still learning my way around these........

 

[shontay07108]

I HATE the 188 for these blushes. When I went to the boutique yesterday I had the MA put some on me b/c I wanted her opinion on shades and techniques for me. She used a flat foundation brush to put it on my cheek and then she tried a sponge. I hated the result but I grinned and left (after buying my other stuff of course). I went to the nearest Sephora and I had an idea to grab their contour brush. It's a straight up flat top brush. It's their normal range, not the platinum brushes. It was INCREDIBLE. I will be getting that brush this week along with First Kiss and PDA HD blushes. I think you can use a 109 or something dense and flat to apply and blend these.

I tried the 188 when I ordered these and it was a disaster. No control and patchy results. I thought it was the product, but it's all in the brush. These blushes are incredible. Oh and I tried smooth talker too and I think that can only work on the palest of pale. LOL

 

[shontay07108]

Can you see the gold flecks in the black liner? It's delicious. I guess I could've made the metal pigment swatch bigger, but you get the idea, right? And of course, the fuchsia and orange cream liners.
