Yeah, it's gonna be 43 or something ridiculous in Adelaide today.

Since when can we get TFSI locally???? what have I missed???

UDPP Sin is a new colour of UDPP. It's the same colour as their "Sin" eyeshadow which is a shimmery beige

re the Inglot liner - yep, I have been waiting for this since before Christmas! I went back to blacktrack the other day cos I was out of my sample and I couldnt believe how much I preferrred the Inglot one for both texture and colour!

 

[sambibabe]

MrsMay! I got my TFSI from KIT cosmetics last year.. Oh, just checked their website and they don't have a store in SA.. Let me know if you need one, I can CP it for you.

OMG, they even have Shadow Insurance Policy in stock.. I was lemming this on Sephora site this morning!!

Swatch from Pursebuzz:

 

[CatsMeow]

I've learnt shimmery bases do not work for me! So the appeal of Sin isn't really there.

I don't use blacktrack above the lashline - too hard, for that I use Penultimate and other liquid liners. Only use it in the inner lash line (I hate it when I have a daft moment and it ends up in my eyes - ugh).

Shadow Insurance Policy? What is that? Am I missing something here? heheh

BBR next week - YAY! (BOO! goes my credit card. lol)

 

[simplyenchantin]

That's so interesting, CatsMeow! I suck at liquid eyeliner coz I have shakey hands and I find fluidline/other gel liners + brush SO much easier. I haven't got the hang of the penultimate yet.. can't get the same thickness on both eyes

I dont use liquid liners becuase the liquid gets all over my lashes and hence gets everywhere! these lashes are a pain in the ass sometimes lol...

 

[CatsMeow]

Oh you poor thing!!! lol

Simplyenchantin - anything that more resembles a texta or felt tip pen, i'm better with than say, paint-type material!

I have a love hate relationship with Newly Minted. The only way I can get it to show up like it does in the pan is to put it over Rollickin, or that aqua McQeen paint pot(Otherwordly??) and even then it darkens considerably. It always ends up a dark teal colour grrr! But it looked amazing today paired with Haunting. I kind of patted it on top of Haunting and the colour stayed true. Pretty Twisted sounds nice too. I might try and find it because I must have ALL the teals >_<!

 

[CatsMeow]

Cheers ladies!

I played around with blackground pp this morning. I find that I tend to use fewer pigment colours when I use it as a base. I was tempted to whack Steel Blue on there instead of Copperized - but I figured I should depart from blues today given I used them all on the weekend!

I never wore blue eyeshadow prior getting into MAC, probably in fear of looking like some 70s tragic - but I find that blue makes my brown eyes pop better than any other colour. Teals are good as well. Anyhoo...

[sambibabe]

Yeah cooler weather till the weekend in Melbourne! Grrr.. When is summer officially over?

A quick look for me as I was running late for an appointment this morning..

Face
MUFE HD Blue Primer
MUFE Mat Velvet +
MUFE Duo Mat powder
Benefit Erase Paste Concealer
Blonde MSF - HOLY SHIT!

thought Redhead was pretty- Blonde is stunning!

Eyes
TFSI
MUFE Flash Colour in Purple - just like matt paint pot, but more intense colour
Reflects Blue glitter
Lark About p/g (highlight)
UD 24/7 liner in Lucky - bright purple
Dazzle Lash

Lips
Inglot Lip Paint #56 - violet pink

spectrolite, Pretty Twisted is gorgeous matt teal (cracked one on bottom left) and Newly Minted on top right. If I knew Pretty Twisted was super rare, I would have handled it a bit better

lol

 

[CatsMeow]

Don't say blonde MSF is good!!!!!!
I'm already forking out enough for BBR (i've just resorted to getting Redhead MSF only!).

 

[sambibabe]

^^ Tell me about it! I've resisted Blonde MSF so hard, but boy am glad I have no self control

Get both CatsMeow! lol.. At least I don't have to pay for HK and it is going to be a small haul (for now anyway).

 

[CatsMeow]

Don't tempt me, samibabe!!!

I'm guessing Blonde MSF is more suited to the cooler tones of makeup, yeah?
BBR is such a wearable collection. I'm in no danger of buying HK - it's just not my style. But BBR is SO wearable!

 

[sambibabe]

Blonde is warm pink? I think it is a bit more pigmented than Redhead? On my skintone (I am half way between NC20 and NW20), Redhead MSF is a bit like peachy brown and Blonde MSF is peachy pink. I am even going to get a back up for this!

Yeah, I agree it is so wearable.. I bought nearly whole collection, because I love the colours so much! Just not into BBR lippy stuff though, because I am not into subtle lips lol.. I am saving all my B2M for Creamteam!

 

[MrsMay]
