[billy_cakes]

All this sugarsweet talk is making me want it to come out here...and a cupcake

I had an interview today... blah... i hate looking for a job...

Studio Fix fluid and powder NC15
Studio Fix Concelor NC15
Stark Naked BPB

UDPP
Club
Copperplate
Carbon
Vanilla
Blacktrack fluidline
lashblast

Summerfruit lipliner
VegasVolt l/s (thought of u this morning Sambi when i was putting this on... maybe u should put a darker lipliner under it? to help with the orange)

I think that was it...

I really like Red Velvet but Lemon Chiffon and me.. it was hate at first application. It's nice but not that special and it doesn't make such a difference on my pale skin.

I was super shocked how wrinkly my eyelids looked after I applied it. The eyeshadow over it took it mostly away but still.. and then 5mm broke off and I haven't even used a lot of pressure.
I was secretly lemming the other shadesticks too but especially the lemming for Cakeshop (similar frosty) is completely gone.

With Red Velvet I had no problems. But I am not sure if you even need a pink base with good pigmented eyeshadows.

I don't think it would have made such a difference and Sushi Flower and Romping wouldn't have looked different without Red Velvet.

Thank you Panda- but as all you ladies know 'the power of MAC!'... some conturing, flash lashes, full coverage foundation, brow pencil and you're a different person

^^ This makes me sad

Red Velvet, Lemon Chiffon and Cakeshop are on the way to me as we speak. I hope I like them and don't break them!!

Maybe I just got a super bad Lemon Chiffon? *hopes* I will cross my fingers for you that your Lemon Chiffon and Cakeshop are better!

I am lemming Base Light Paint because it sounds a bit like Lemon Chiffon now.

Hehehe you're a doll! Thank you for your kind wishes <3

OMG, I am here everyone!!! Yay, I finally have internet at home

(this is what happens when you have no net at home for two weeks)

Thank you Jeanette - I hate Cakeshop and thought I was the only weird one hating it! I love Red Velvet too! So it must be the shimmers that make these shadesticks bleh.. I love pairing Red Velvet with purple shadows.. It goes pinkish purple = very pretty!

simplyenchantin, I agree with Jeanette that they might work for you. My lids are a bit wrinkly, but your-young-spring-chicken-skin doesn't have that problem. So you'd be okay.

Welcome to the

club!

I think too that it's the extreme frosty finish that makes them so bleh for my lids.

I am not 18 anymore.. I know that.. do I want my eyelids to tell me that extra loudly with a shadesticks that brings out the wrinkles 400% more? NO!

 

[sambibabe]

^^ LOL Jeanette, I didn't realise my lids are so wrinkly until my encounter with shadesticks. Ohh I just realised you love Lollipop loving. I didn't like it much, but then you had Benetint underneath! Did it alter the lippy shade a bit?

 

[capmorlovesmac]

Benetint and Lollipop Loving are great together!

My lips have almost no color and Benetint helped a lot. They two make such a gorgeous pinky/coral color and it brings out the green duochrome even better!

Hmmm.. My lips are pigmented, so Lollipop Loving erases my lips

And I don't see any green duochromes

Ahhh, I really want to make this work for me!!

hmmm well I've been wanting to try that purple Inglot e/s for ages since I bought it but hadnt really had the chance. So I decided to do my makeup before getting dressed today so I didnt have a chance to chicken out

Eyes:
UDPP
Pink Opal - highlight
Viz-a-violet - lid
Inglot matte e/s - dark purple - crease

CG Volume exact mascara

Skin:

Initial thoughts on the Inglot purple matte e/s:
Absolutely beautiful!! It picked up a nice amount of colour with one very slight swipe of the brush, and went on smoothly

Blendability was the best I had used for quite some time too - similar to matte2 e/s from MAC but perhaps a bit easier? Will definatley be going back to get more of these...

[panda0410]

Did the Sin make everything really frosty Jen?? Wondering how a matte would apply over it?

 

[MrsMay]

^^ probably didnt help that I applied frosts over it lol

I think pigments would work really well over it.

I remember Adina saying that mattes we'rent real friendly over Sin, so I will just have to keep experimenting to figure out what works with it
