But if I wore my face shade I look sick.


Haha same.. Don't forget to ask for Shu foundation sample! And Giorgio Armani.. Their sample is so generous

I don't usually like wearing pink shadows, but somehow the pink in this is just gorgeous! So they all came home with me

Wooooooo nice!! I love early birthday presents!! The greys in that quint looks awesome, too.

Does shu uemura give you samples in your colour though? Since they gave me that sample sachet that's too light for me. I was bored on Friday and I put it on, I of course hated it just because of the colour, but I like the feel and texture of it.

As for Armani foundations, I've tried silk, but they didn't have shade dark enough for me. They had my face shade but not darker. The mua is like but this is your shade, and I'm like, no I like 1-2 shades darker. I'm such a pain in the bottom.

Thank you.. Yeah, the greys in both quints are lovely.

Oops I forgot.. Shu doesn't have a sample in your shade! They might though? lol. You might need to sit for a foundation match.

Haha.. I always had a problem with MUAs applying darker foundation, not the other way. I like Face Fabric.. It is like a souffle and feels really great on skin lol

My face is always the same colour but my body changes! I always wear sunscreen on my face, but not anywhere else.. I can't be stuffed and it gives me a rash.

I did get matched once, but the girl did a sheer application and I hated it, and that's why she gave me the sample. I'll ask if they will give me a foundation sample in my colour next time.

Cool, thanks! I'll go ask for a sample of Face Fabric.

You're the best! Always giving me advices

I forgot to wear sunscreen on my body and that's when I got really fried. I couldn't even wear bra for two days

sunniechan, I love trying different foundations and primers. I used to have 8 different foundations, just for my face.

What's your favourite foundation and primer?


I love Koh Gen Do and Shu for everyday wear.. I also love F&B too, for the dewy look, but then I get horribly oily.

You should try Face Atelier, if you haven't. It gives me a lovely dewy finish, and it doesn't make me go all oily.

Thanks sunniechan.. Koh Gen Do Aqua foundation is a dewy foundation and it doesn't make me go oily either.. But then it doesn't give as much coverage as F&B.

Woo hoo.. Another perfume Panda!!

For some reason I thogh Koh Gen Do as medium+ coverage. I have no idea why. By F&B you mean the mac one? or the MUFE one?

KGD foundation is very similar to Shu Face Architect in terms of texture and coverage. I am not really crazy about medium + coverage as I prefer to use concealer to hide imperfections. Then sometimes I feel like more coverage.. I don't know! MAC F&B.

I got the Graftobian palettes for my friends wedding (from makeup and glow, perfect customer service

)

Wow they are great I did a trial on saturday after the rehersal on the girls and it worked well on everybody's skin. Oh and I did mine in the mid morning and used setting powder and spray and I still looked good at 12 that night.

I am seriously tempted to buy it as my regular foundation!!!

oh and I got a few yabby re-fills and a la feeme brow powder. Loved them too!! The Yabby shadows are small but they are so cheap and great quality I don't think I could possible complain!

For some reason this isnt available in AU, its a walmart exlcusive. I mailed EA as well and they said they had no plans to make it available here either so I managed a swap for a BNIB one with a perfectly beautiful swapper who was happy to purchase it in exchange for a specific swap item I had listed!! So happy, I'm a real lover of Mariahs perfumes - I kind of have them all

^^Oh isn't it wonderful when you find such a wonderful swapper like that?

I am doing my first two swaps (actually the very first one was more of a purchase) and hope they go smoothly. It is fun and I can see why some of you are so into swapping lol.

My small haul today : Giorgio Armani foundation brush and Cyndi lippy!! I loved both Cyndi and Gaga! Gaga is on the way and Cyndi looks like a lippy that I already have, but what the heck.. It was pretty and for a good cause.. Plus I couldn't be bothered to go through all my lipstick stash to see if I had a dupe.

I also have the new Mineralized foundation (the one in compact) on my face right now!! MUA applied it with #130 (OMG, everyone should go and buy this brush!! I have one on the way, but I think I might order another one) and I am loving it!! Looks natural, dewy and my super oily nose looks okay too. One thing puzzles me is I told MUA that I am NC20/C2 and she applied NW25, which she thought looked really natural. I thought, HUH? I am having Sal's moment here...

I want that foundation now too! But that is odd that the shade is all messed up :S
