Just trying to work out what shades I'd need to cover most faces if I were to use HD in my kit. I've got it ALL sussed out now.
Went to MAC yesterday and successfully mooched a couple of samples. I picked up NC20 Studio Stick and NW15 (!?) Studio Fix Fluid.
NW15 is actually a better colour match for me... skin looks a bit brighter than wearing the NC shade. So that was suprising.
Tried out the SFF today, and I'm rather happy with how it is on my skin. But I have some concerns about using it in my kit:
1. I think dry skintones wouldn't agree with it;
2. The SPF content shows up a little in flash photography I reckon.
Today's look...
FACE:
Prep+Prime
NW20 Select SPF Concealer
NW15 SFF
Stark Naked BPB
Blonde MSF
Light MSF
Fix+
EYES:
UDPP
Painterly p/p
Shroom e/s (highlight)
Brule e/s (lid)
Silverthorn e/s (lid to crease)
Revlon Black Liquid Liner (THICK upper lashline)
Smolder e/k (upper and lower waterlines)
Dior Show
Lancome Brow Pencil
LIPS:
Angel l/s
Baby Sparks d/g
FOTD: (no flash) - I think NW15 is a winner! And I don't look like Katy Perry dammit!!

I'm one of those dry skinned peeps, CatsMeow and SFF/P is just not the go for me.. you might want to try Face and Body for that sorta thing, I use it and it's great.

I had the can't be's big time this morning! I have a wee hangover from having a little too much Moscato at my niece's birthday yesterday. So today I've tried to NOT look so hungover and open up my eyes which clearly just want to be closed in a dark room somewhere. A simple socket eye/cut crease look today because it's all I could muster, it's actually come out a little ethereal looking.
Face
SFF applied with the #187 looks so much better than with a normal foundation brush
SFP
Clinique All About Eyes concealer
Blonde MSF - darker side blush, lighter side highlight
Eyes
UDPP
Femme Fi e/s - All over lids and lower lash line
Satin Taupe e/s - crease, outer 1/4 lower lash line
Brule e/s - brow
Alamay black liquid eye liner
Bourjois white eye pencil - water line (open those darn eyes!!)
Dior Show mascara
Lips
Marqusie'd l/s
Nymphette l/g
What's wrong Nat???

I love it
It gives me a bit more volume than my other mascara, and is super black
I will definately be getting this again, but probably only via CP (not sure what the price is like here)

Yay for cheapie lashes Ali! I'm planning on doing a decent order from this site for lashes next month Madame Madeline They have Ardell lashes which I've heard great things about.
Sorry to hear you've got another cold Nat, sucks to be sick. I'm located in the hub of all the swine flu outbreaks in Melb, hopefully it stays out of my work!

^^ yeah I must have!! I think the stye is gone or at least on the way out. I'm seeing my doc tonight to get a script so I'll get some value out of my $45 visit and make him look at my bung eye
I didn't know that about Madame Madeline? It would sound about right though most cosmetic companys have a few brands.

Hey Jen - Re CP for MUFE, do you get that from someone in the states via Sephora? Also, does it end up cheaper with the shipping still?
Exchange rate AUD$1 = US$.80 today!!
