Thanks hun.. I am so crap at this. If I'm an NW am I pink or yellow? lol. I'm leaning towards the 25 but I'm not sure if it's too light completely. When I compare how it looks to the colour of NW20 studio fix fluid, the NW20 is noticeably darker but they probably change colour on the skin. Maybe I'm actually a 30 in the Mat Velvet. Having no counter sucks.

Hmmmm I wonder if Media Make up will get annoyed if I ask for another sample lol. It isn't enough to cover my face very well
I'll have to ask someone for an opinion in person, I have no clue how to colour match myself.

I'm depotting this weekend!! I have 8 shadows to add to my pile of empties. I'm definitely going to B2M for a few of those BBR lippies. I also want to get the #214 brush and a few more of the shadows, then I really gotta save for Hello Kitty AND Sugar Sweet which I am realllly excited about. I think it looks better than Hello Kitty :x

simplyenchantin, it was a bit of gamble for me, when it came down to choosing the correct Mat Velvet shade.. I tried the first two shades, but didn't really know what #25 was like.. But I ordered it anyway! I thought if it was a bit dark, then I would wear it for summer lol..
spectrolite, I have 4 lipsticks to b2m, but not sure if it is worth to get Marquis D' and All's Fair! Grrrr.. So annoying. Why so many good collections, one after the other! Crap.. No electricity!

Sound v nice Spectrolite!
I was going to get Marquise 'd, but I think I'm gonna go for What A Do! (B2M) instead. Hopefully they let me do B2M with the BBR collection. I'll be slightly miffed if they don't.
That reminds me, MrsMay did you get on to Tess? And thanks again for the hookup yesterday. lol. I hope you've relocated again to the a/c office!!
My makeup was slightly melted come 5pm yesterday (perhaps I shouldn't have gone blackground heavy smokey eyes on a 45 degree day? hmm), so I've gone for much lighter/'hardly there' matte-ish tones today.
EYES:
UDPP
Bare Canvas
Shroom (highlight)
Scant (lid)
Ambience (crease)
Penultimate liner (top lid)
Dior Show
Inglot White Pencil (lower lashline)

Rah.. it's so hot.
I need some help..
1. Do you guys know any good posts/tutorials for de-potting es and potting pigments?
2. Also looking for a good tutorial on blending... I would like to get better at this. I think my problem is that I'm applying too much product (es/pigment).

^^Thanks ladies >_< I was really happy with my look today. And yes it is too friggin hot
My poor computer sounds like a shuttle about to launch into space.
To depot my shadows I use the candle method. I don't have a flat iron so this was the easiest way for me to do it. Here is a link to the tutorial I learned from: clicky
It was like 43 degrees today or something rediculous like that but when I got home to inspect the horror show that was my makeup after working all day I was surprised to see that it looked really good!! I attribute this success to my newest love: Barrier Spray. It's magic! Here is a link to a place that sells it in Melbourne. clicky
Money very well spent I reckon.

I completely appreciate what you're saying Spectrolite!!
It was 45.7 degrees in Adelaide yesterday and I think it's just over 43 degrees today
CatsMeow - this is the tutorial I used for pigment pressing:
http://www.specktra.net/forum/f280/g...c-heavy-63815/
And here's a depotting tutorial:
http://www.specktra.net/forum/f280/d...ht-iron-40895/
I basically do it the same way but use a normal iron instead of a hair straightener.

^^ ooohh GAT & Pink Manish sounds great.. Might try this on the weekend!
With depotting e/s.. I don't use the heat method, because I have no patience whatsoever.. I just use Koren's no heat method. He uses alcohol in his tutorial, but I don't even use that either.
I went home early yesterday and slept all day & evening.. So not only my face is puffed up like a marshmallow man, I couldn't be bothered taking all my make up out of the fridge (lipsticks, foundations, concealers, paint pots, CCBs and moisturisers etc), so I used whatever on the table. No problem with those products, but I was sweating, so I couldn't be bothered applying properly either..So what I am trying to say is - I look like SHIT!
