Yeah I haven't had a chance to play with it much, but I highly doubt it will do much in the way of setting for me. However, I do use powder foundation quite a lot, so it'd be nice to get rid of the powdery look a little. I mainly want it for foiling and because I love rose scent! I also have the Jurlique mist you're talking about in a full size and it's lovely. They do some really great products.

How does Fix+ Rose smell compared to Jurlique Rosewater, Lauren? My MUA said it reminds her of nanna smell, lol. Yeah it is quite nice for foiling - it sprays just enough!

The Fix + Rose much gentler scent than the Jurlique - in fact I think you can barely smell the rose! So no nanna associations for me.

The scents are one thing that sometimes irks me about Jurlique because if you use a couple of products at once, like at night, you end up with a whole host of strong scents mingled together, which I'm not so fond of. I'm still young, so some of those heavy herbal sort of scents do make me feel kind of like a grannie about to settle down for the night with her curlers and cat haha!

^I feel like Sunny By Nature was made for me

. It is buttery smooth to apply and has the prettiest finish. If you are a golden girl with yellow/golden/orange undertones then you need to try it. I don't think it's like MSF Dark, I think its prettier! It makes me glow with what seems to be an inner light. Seriously - it lives up to it's name lol!

Smooth Merge is okay. I think its alot like Blonde MSF. The pink stripe in the middle is really pretty but it's not a must have item. Cheeky Bronze or Warm Blend would probably be more suitable for you. Both of those are really gorgeous.

Not to mention ankle length dress jammies with buttons done up all the way to your neck! Have you tried their citrus mist? It reminds me of curry. They should make cheesecake scent mist - I will lick myself!!

Ahaha oh it really is a fashion statement, what can I say? No I haven't tried the citrus one, I'm not a citrus fan in general. I think I'll definitely steer clear now I know it smells like curry though...great to eat, but on my face? No thanks! Cheesecake would be wayyyy too dangerous!

 

[sambibabe]

^^ This afternoon, I had a choice of visiting MAC counter or cheesecake, so I chose cheesecake & vanilla slice instead. Colour Craft can wait till next weekend!

[xLongLashesx]

my small colour craft haul:

Triple fusion MSF (I don't know how I'm going to use this!)
Madly creative lippie

and one of the naked honey scents.. really pretty!

 

[rockin26]

Hey Sal here's how you can use Triple Fusion to highlight your face, place it with a mid sized soft brush in the lighter shaded areas (the darker shading is contouring) The 187 works well for highlighting or even the 224 if you have smaller features

 

[xLongLashesx]

Thanks hun!

I normally use a 109 to contour with a flat taupe and champagne shimmer to highlight which looks really natural, but I think triple fusion is too pink for me to use it for that purpose.

I tried it with a 187 with the peach/pink over today's blush and the champagne bit on the higher parts to highlight then buffed it in a little but I can still see the particles.. I think that's my issue.. that I can see the sparkley bits.

I'll give it another go tomorrow on it's own, if not it's back to my trusty prestige msf dupe! It's more shimmery where the msf's seem more glittery IMHO.

 

[xLongLashesx]

I like your idea about the 224 btw, 187 is waay too big and I was tempted by the 131 but I can't justify the purchase just to use for highlighting/contouring.. or can I? hmmm...

 

[Pinupsundae]

Went into Inglot today to check out their matte range and I ended up with the matte black which seems really nice, will experiment further, and and eye-liner brush. Their pale purple is amazing - so buttery and pigmented! Really want that, but I already have a couple pale purples so it might be overkill...I did want a couple greys, but they seemed to have really blue undertones. Their matte range totally outclasses the rest of their shadows though, definitely worth a look. So just backing up Jenny's thoughts on them (I think it was her at least!) they're lovely for the price.

Might pick up another one or two if the budget stretches that far. Only problem was the girl there serving seemed to be very new and really didn't know her products well, which was kind of off-putting. Plus she had tried on one of their pale violet/purple lipsticks and it really didn't work...wasn't a good ad for the brand I don't think. Maybe I'm just old-fashioned when it comes to lipsticks!

 

[MrsMay]

^^ yep, it was me

Which one did you go to? I normally go to the one at West Lakes, the girls are lovely there

 

[tana2210]
