I dont have Spiritualise - surprisingly I skipped it
I do have Green original out, along with Golden Olive, Quick Frost and Springtime Skipper. I also have Sharp out but I am not sure if I will use it yet!! I a going for pale pink cheeks with Oasis and either Pleasure Principle or Snowscene on the lips... havent quite made my mind up on that one yet...
Headaches?? Aww Nat thats no good
The only they give me is obesity and I can do without that

ooo.. you guys have to try JCo.. it's similar to Krispy Kreme but a lot better... hands down... it's not as sweet as Krispy Kreme, which is a plus for me... it's only available in indo, hopefully it'll be here soon..
there are both JCo and KK in this mall right in front of each other and you can totally see which has more customers..
urgh.. i have classes tomorrow, so there is not even any excuse for me to pull green eyes look.. gah
btw, does anyone know if there will be a parade going on along swanston street tomorrow morning?

I have so many greens I never know which to use! But I'm off to the pro store shortly to test stuff out with Kira
We're going to try figure out what my foundation colour really is and play around with eyeliner, such fun!!

Blues and especially greens arent a big hit with my coloring (i'm dark blonde & blue-eyed). I do have lots of blues though and I like playing with them, figure that out.
Today was a mix of steamy on the lid, tilt on the outer edge and trying to blend into a darker blue (gah, I cant remember the name of it!) and satin taupe to try and develop a blended crease with the greens - but it was bit difficult as I don't have any dark green colors, but it still seemed to work successfully....
Ohhhh .. and So Ceylon - soooo happy with the results of this. I'm normally someone who would use pink/peach blush shades, but this worked quite successfully to me. Much more subtle, but nice nonetheless ...
*wonders what Jenny has come up with*

I've seen a FOTD of a blue eye'd blue shadow look and it looked great.
Can't remember the title of it... but I'm sure if you did a search it would come up.

how did it go, michelle??
is kira the best MUA there over the PRO store? i know she's the manager and all but i heard leah is also good.
i'm going to get a makeover soon on the well defined launch date.. so that way she/he can match me too..
btw... just wondering.. is it rude to ask for a foundation sample instead of being matched? cuz most of the times they got me the wrong shade.. in store lighting vs natural lighting issue

I went in a couple of weeks ago and asked for samples because I had that same problem too. An MUA at highpoint matched me as NC20 on the pressed powder, I thought it flushed me out and was too pale and thanks to the samples from the Pro store I think I'm much more and NW15 in the SFF (still don't know about the powder yet).
I spoke to the lady with the english accent, really nice and really helpful but I don't know her name?? She gave me a couple of samples to play with and they were very generous.

Im having major skin issues at the moment; im very lucky in the fact that i can count the number of breakouts ive had on my hands and now... *BAM* my chin and one cheek is covered! It makes putting on make up so much more depressing

^^I got one maybe 3 or 4 weeks ago so I reckon it will be a little while before new ones are sent out. I think it's every quarter so another 2 months! I used mine to put towards my Grand Duo's >_< I hope that they at least send another Beauty discount voucher though. That $10 off every $100 spent really comes in handy sometimes.
Todays look was green for St.Patricks day!

Dea: It was super fun! I don't know who the best MUA is but Kira is super nice and down to earth and actually wants to help people as opposed to just selling them products.
I totally hear you Robyn RE: mismatched foundation. I was previously matched as NW20 at the pro store but Kira reckons I definitely have golden undertones so I should probably wear NC20-25 in SFF. She actually said my skin is good and reccomends that I wear Face and Body in C2!
And yeah Dea, they will happily give you samples. I learnt heaps today, apparently due to my kind of dry skin I shouldn't really use SFF, nor Blot Powder coz they contain silica and pull the oils out of your skin. Kira gave me a sample of their strobe cream and the face & body foundation so I can try it on myself.
She did a HK look on me and I tried BigBow on and it looked great!!
Face:
Strobe Cream
Face and Body foundation
Select Moisturecover concealear
Fix +
Some sort of white loose powder?
Fun and Games blush
Tahitian Sand BP
Moon River blush
Eyes:
Soft Ochre p/p
Creme Royale
Paradisco
Lucky Tom
Romping
Stylin'
Blacktrack f/l
Prolash mascara
Lips:
Big Bow l/s
Mimmy l/g
Forget the lipliner
