Excellent idea!I really need to join this challenge! I have a huge stash to shop thats for sure. My mom said I need a whole van to transport my makeup. Haha.. I have so much stuff I barely touch.
I never tried Firespot or Cranberry from Moonbathe I bet they would look nice together.So many combos,one I recently discovered in the depths of my stash is Gel Lipstick with Flash of Flesh on top, its very hot.

After seeing the holiday Lace Palette compared to Spiced Chocolates, I dragged my much loved, never used palette out, and tried it out!

Base: Bare Study
Wash, lid to brow: White Tie
Mid crease, faded to inner and outer: Valet (the coppery color)
Mid lid, faded towards inner and outer: Woodwinked
Outer V, and fading to mid crease: Limo (dark reddish color)
Lower lash, and liner: Embark mixed with Limo

I put Clinique Fig on my cheeks.

I haven't decided on my lips, yet, but am thinking "O" or Sophisto would be nice, or even Sci-Fi-Delity. I haven't got that far.

I ended up with "Budding Lust" - Omg, I've forgotten how much I love this color!

Handwritten in the outer V and under outer 1/3 of the lower lashline.

I always do this. I use it once or twice to test it out, then back to my regulars. Then I'll see it a couple months later, use it once or twice, then back to my oldies again. Got to stop that!

Exactly!
So I figure I either need to stop getting new stuff or use the new stuff I get.

I've been using my Budding Lust every day, lately. I've been sticking to grey and plummy eyes, and Budding Lust.

I had no love for this lipstick when I bought it on an MA's recommendation, last Christmas. I liked it during my "makeover" but never put it on, since. Now I can't stop wearing it.

Also, I've reinitiated my love affair with Stray Rose blush. I'm about to hit pan. Good thing I've a backup!

(And I don't think Blossoming is really all that similar - it's lighter, and way frostier).

They are fixing the plumbing in our apartment building, so we had to evacuate and are now staying with my BIL and his girlfriend. Having to decide which eyeshadows to bring with me were HARD! But i tried taking stuff that I haven't been using in a while, so that I'll be forced to wear it. Yesterday and today I wore different combos from the Smokey eyes palette from holiday 2007. It is a very good basic palette, IMO!

Today: Maid of Honor all over, Majestic in crease, Coffee eyeliner. Peachykeen blush, shimmer side of New View MSF. Hush Hush Tendertone.
