Oh how beautiful!!! Thanks for the swatch!!!! I was trying to stay away from this thread since my hubby put me on a no buy but that lipstick may be the one that makes me sneak to the TF counter..... On another note ladies, is the new highlight duo worth the price tag, as well as the new primers? If i'm going to be bad I want to make sure it's worth it hehhe
I love the highlighter duo, totally worth it for me!
Thanks!

A lovely specktrette sent me her code for that offer and I was so glad when I saw Mr. Rebates were doing 12%. Talk about making your money for work you. I feel sufficiently less guilty about the makeup I bought lol.
That wa nice! I got over it pretty quickly. :shock:

Just think of discussing with your partner over dinner, without kiddies present. I thinking of trying some Softcore, and perhaps adding Dark and Dangerous or Something Wild, but I am concerned that Love Bruise might be over the top.....is it too much if I switched into Showgirl, or would Virgin Rose be better for you???? I am being So Vain right now, but after all it is My Guilty Pleasure embracing the 7th Sin.

I have really lost it, need to go to bed.....

Can you confirm or deny that the new group of lipsticks are just the lips & boys with different names?

How would you describe the shade of So Vain?
Hi, remember last L&B? The shades were very very close, but a bit different? Well to some they were and to some they were the same. Tom Ford will often change something very slight and re promote it. Example Beau was Blush Nude. The summer duo shadows, the creams were close, but a bit off. I think some of the lips are almost dupes!
My advice is look for the shade you like , then decide if you want it in a larger size or a smaller one or like the junkies we are, in both!


As for Estee Lauder owning, yes the same factories and production are producing Mac, EL, clinique , TF. The formulas are different though.
Example, I used to work for PX! I loved magic powder, they changed it a bit when PX was taken out of stores and added it to the MAC line up.
A company will use the same ingredients, but not the same formula. I feel TF formula is superior to other Lauder brands.:)

I love a good fairy tale....hues and values, dye lots. Art 101, white is the hardest to replicate, black is second. That is why anyone who does needle arts knows buy all that you think you might need with the same dye lot. If you don't and go back to purchase additional materials even if it the same producer is the maker, it will never be an exact match. Same with wall paper. Wow, that was a major blow off the cobwebs off my college education.

I have a LOT of catching up to do! Like 20 pages. I will respond to pm's! Just wanted to say I love your VCA bracelet! LOL. I have the MOP with Yellow gold. :)

Thank you so much! I love the Gold/MOP as well, it's a stunning combination! I hope to get a Gold/Onyx some day. Someday.... =))

So I just noticed the Eye & Cheek Duos are available on Nordstrom.com

I know these aren't that popular b/c of the seemingly lackluster pigmentation, but I may or may not have been cyber bullied by TF Gremlins to place an order for a few of them.

Yes, agree, So Vain is a MUST!
Sorry I haven't posted a lip swatch, I've had no makeup days since getting back in town & I didn't want to subject anyone to that lol
I'll try to post one tomorrow. I will say I briefly tried it on today for the first time & it is beautiful! You can see the gold micro shimmers & it leaves behind tiny gold shimmers when the lipstick wears off. I also find it pulls more plummy than mauvey on my lips.
Thank you for the vote of confidence, EO!!!

I truly promise So Vain is not Guillermo. I think I missed bits and pieces of the conversation in here, so I'm not sure where that even came from lol

I had Guillermo and gave it to my cousin b/c it pulled way too brown on me, so I remember it well. Not to mention it doesn't have gold shimmer in it like So Vain does.
Thank you! ugh, sorry to hear you lost your bracelet. I've lost and had jewelry stolen before, so I know how it feels.
This one is from Van Cleef & Arpels.
Thank you! No problem, swatches are always fun to look at and to share!
Thanks so much, Meddy!!!

I'm so happy you love this shade and that you are dancing lol!

But you are Not old, You're a beautiful, young lady!

Yeah, I was hoping to love Guillermo but I just didn't love how brown it looked on me so I passed it on to my cousin.
Yay! no problem!!
So glad you love it! So Vain is definitely worth a sneak trip to the counter lol
The HL duo is truly stunning, moreso then I thought it was going to be. I especially love the bronze shade b/c it is very unique and brings a beautiful glow to the cheeks. I personally haven't tried the new primers, but I'm sort of "meh" about them after reading ho-hum reviews about them. I skipped those with no problem.
lol, yeah I'm trying to catch up tonight!
Thank you so much! I love the Gold/MOP as well, it's a stunning combination! I hope to get a Gold/Onyx some day. Someday.... =))
I'm over the moon excited to get So Vain and Love Bruise (caused by a Love Bite)
