What did you think of Rose? I bet you've got a few things in your collection that you've bought and never used

lol yeah, I've got a few... I'm trying to use everything in the palette on my vanity before I can put it away and get another one out ;-)

I dont mind rose.. you get a little bit of fallout, but it's better when it's pressed. It looks like a reddish pink kinda colour with gold through it. It's not my favourite, but it's not horrible either.

No, it's a pinker colour than Revved Up and more coarse textured like steel blue. It also has that gold duochrome that steel blue has as well.

Ah... now I get you. I love Steel Blue tho. So the pink/red version doesn't quite stack up then?

 

[MrsMay]

^^ I just went into the ladies and looked at it (

) and I am happier with it in that light... it does give off that beautiful gold duochrome, it may just be that I'm not used to wearing that kind of pink and it's taking me a while to get used to it!

here's some dodgy ones I just took in the ladies... it's more reddish pink in real life and the camera didnt pick up the gold through it

 

[CatsMeow]

That looks pretty Jen.

Wouldn't Red Velvet s/s underneath make the pigment make it appear even more red tho?

 

[MrsMay]

^^ thanks hun.

Actually - Red Velvet s/s is more of a deeper pink on me than red, which is why it's pinker.

 

[iheartmakeup]

wow the last few pages are full og some inspirational pics!

rose pigment never looked that good on me so I ditched it

and red lips! I am not brave enough!

brie how do you like your new lipsticks?

my FOTD was nekkid, home sick from work (well, more run down than sick really) so I tried to start a blog. I found it so challengeing since I'm so hopeless with technology! will have to see how I go with it.

you did what.......?!?

I actually pressed mine and the coarser pigments seem to have a better texture when they are pressed so maybe that's the trick?

you're home sick from work... that explains all the colour craft pics

(thank you by the way!!) Hope you're feeling better soon hun!!

I'm sure that there's some IT-savvy people around here somewhere that can help you with your blog! Unfortunately I'm not one of them... I suck at IT stuff...

yeah I think I gave it to my sister? she gets all my rejects

I had hoped the colour craft stuff would come today and was thrilled (seriously!) when it did. so excited!

the blogging thing is ok I think, it just seems to take me forever to do it cos I'm a loser

 

[MrsMay]

^^ ah ok... as long as it was re-homed and not abandoned in a trashcan I am happy...

I'm not sure about the colour craft stuff yet... although I just had a thought - do you reckon Warm Blend MSF could be used as an eyeshadow for people with fair skin? It kinda looks like Tempting e/s on your skin... If it can then I think I will pick up one to use as an e/s

I might try and wear it as an e/s tomorrow and test it out. I'll let you know how it goes! that's the only way I use metal rock really, too dark for my paley face.

oh and thankyou for commenting on the blog

I appreciate it!
