I DONT KNOW!! I was thinking about that this morning. Do I get a french manicure? Or do I put a colour on. If I wear a colour I was thinking of putting on my Chanel Innatendu... Its a gorgeous "mannequin hands" colour on me.....

My sentiment exactly.. The blush looks pretty, but I wouldn't touch it, thanks to the overlay.. Grr.. But this little red Natalie on my left shoulder is whispering I might be missing out

Thanks honey bunch

Missed two days of work now and my tummy is still trying to make its olympics debut in some kind of somersaulting event. I have a TAFE assessment tonight and I feel way too sick to get out of bed

^^ As for Marine Life, don't give in, guys! It's just a gimmick hehehe. Though I wish I had that highlight powder sitting in my drawer instead of the one from the honey collection, seahorses are cuter than honeycomb lol. :>

I totally agree.. What was I thinking with that honeycomb crap. Ha, I don't even know what it is called.

 

[aussiemacluvrrr]

Nat, little red Carina is saying the same thing to me! Our little red devils must talk to each other

Mich - thats terrible that you still feel so unwell!!

In my experience of tummy bugs (I have them all the time) they never last that long! Maybe you have food poisoning. In which case you may need tablets before you start feeling better.... I have had salmonella and giardia poisoning and I felt like crap for over a week before I realised went to the doctor and got tablets.

Oh and I totally agree, I wish my highlight powders were pretty seahorses and not honeycomb patterns either

 

[sambibabe]

^^ Haha.. I wonder if white little Natalie and Carina ever do anything. Are they even around??? Wish our stores are like US and we could return stuff. I am so returning that Honeycomb thing tomorrow!!!

Grr.. all these tummy problem. Hope you are having lots of liquid Mich! I have Irritable Bowel Syndrome and my tummy is bloated 24/7. IBS is the reason I don't see my 6 pack muscle

 

[aussiemacluvrrr]

^^ I think little red carina locked up little white carina in the dungeon about march last year and she hasnt been heard from since....

^^ Same here, never had it this long! I went to the doctor and he thinks its just a nasty virus that's lasting longer than a day. I've only been eating my own cooking (well, before, when I could eat haha) so I hope I didn't poison myself Both my nephews have been vomiting the past week so I might have caught it from them.

haha I'm just making your decision harder Nat. haha It's so pretty I'm really not sure if i can bear to use it

OH & i just went to Mecca, wanted to get colour matched for NARS sheer glow (for my graduation) & the MUA say they don't have a colour for me!

seriously! sighh. What foundations are HG for you guys? I need a nice one for my graduation

 

[simplyenchantin]

^^ I recommend MAC Face and Body - it doesn't have SPF so it photographs well.

 

[vintageroses]

^^ thank you sweeet! I will check it out

I'm sucha newbie with foundation, have only tried MAC select SPF 15!

 

[sambibabe]

What is your skin like Eliza? F&B is really dewy and a lot of oily people don't like it. Yeah, Marine life is pretty, but it probably looks the lighter version of Hipness or Instant Chic on me.

Haha.. I think I ever had the white one, because I have been buying stuff all my life

Probably little red one on my left and little pink one my right, which tells me to buy everything in pinks!!

^It really shits me how some companies don't carry the full range of foundation colours in Australia. Not everyone is beige damn it!

I think its incredibly disrespectful to darker women out there. Seriously would it kill them just to have the odd bottle of darker shade around just in case a darker lady should want some foundation? /end rant

I'm loving the Mac Mineralized Foundation at the moment but I don't think it would photograph so well due to the SPF. I actually tried my Studio Sculpt (set with RCMA loose powder which is AMAZING!) again today too and was happy with the result. I think it might be a good winter foundation for me. Ive never tried Face and Body but i keep hearing great things about it. Maybe get a generous sample to try out?

Mmmh, I have combination skin

So like oily on the T-zone & I don't really need any coverage I just want to look flawless for my graduation

vain much? hahas

Awws, you're so sweet ranting on my behalf but well in their defense they did have harder shades but she just was not able to swatch me! It was either too light or too dark! She was really not skilled too

I had to tell her which colour i thought i was, she either took way too dark colour or way too light. Oh wells, it means i get to save money on the expensive NARS sheer glow!

Okays! I'll check out Studio sculpt, Mineralized foundation & Face and body (hopefully my MA will give me samples for all! I think she will if i ask nicely

). I've always used Select SPF & I've not seen the white cast which everyone talks about!maybe because I'm more tanned?

Thank you so much girls, you guys are wonderful! <3

 

[sambibabe]

Eliza, you are a Brissy girl, right? F&B foundation is only available at the pro store though

I find Sculpt a bit too heavy for me, but a lot of girls like it. Yeah, try new Mineralized foundation (the compact one, not the liquid one) and Studio Fix Fluid. Also try Stila foundation and Dior Nude too!

 

[vintageroses]

^^ ohh! Thanks Nat

I'll check all those out!

yays hopefully I find something nice! I'll report back to you girlies!

^Ohhh so they do have the full range at the counter? I was looking at the shade range on the Mecca website and there were only like 6 or 7 shades available out of 15. If you go there now you can see they only have the light to medium range.

Not like I *need* another foundation, but its just nice to know I can get one that matches me if I want to ya know? Let us know what you end up with!

 

[aussiemacluvrrr]

Bibi I totally agree that there should be more of a colour range available in foundations! Its ridiculous that there isnt....

Eliza, I do know that Napoleon have some darker shades if you haven't seen/tried them

Bibi you have scared me big time about the Mineralize SPF 15 not photographing well.. I just bought two different colours today (NC35 and NC40) to wear for my graduation on Saturday and my engagement on Sunday. I'm getting a spray tan on Friday night so I thought I should get my summer shades to match the tan but now I'm worried they are going to photograph white.... The MA assured me that they have been tested for photography and dont photograph white... but im still scared

Awww hehehe! Carina I've never been photographed in it myself so don't be scared. You will look gorgeous I'm sure >_< Listen to the professional lady, I'm sure she knows a lot more about it than I do. Seriously I know nothing and I'm an idiot!
