pics pics pics...i been meaning to swatch those liquid liners!!

The mascara doesn't swatch quite right on my hand - you can get a better look of it on my lashes. I'll delete the photo of my half face in a few days - I wanted to show how he paled out my lips (covered with foundation, with a daub of TE on the middle of my lower lip). He topped it off with gloss (judging from images on google, I think it was Gloss Volupte in #10 Or Rose). Clearly the didn't last, but it was pretty while it did. A bunch of watching SAs (YSL and other counters) loved the lips.

Thanks!!! He asked me if I usually did natural or dramatic makeup and I told him "natural" since I tend to play down eyes and go for a bright lip. So I thought he was going to do natural... especially since some other girl a few chairs down that he just worked on had no-makeup makeup on.

The moment he started drawing all over my lids with a brown pencil (which is the intensity shade you see smudged out on my eye), that thought went right out the window.

I LOVE the liner. It was definitely an impulse purchase as I was thinking I was just going to get some lipstick. The moment he put it on me, I was all "is that a TEAL liner???"

I'm still in a summer/mermaid phase.

That's one of the ones that I have and have not yet worn--Couture Palette Couleurs Babay Doll Nude 09
I was attracted to the colors which are so, so pretty, and I have nothing else like it. BTW, I love her blog and
he looks that she creates. She really knows how to showcase the products, demonstrating their potential, and I love that!!!
Hopefully I'll get to wear it soon. I really could use a second head!!!

You should play with this palette asap. It is really nice and unique. It is my favorite of this collection of palettes b/c it is dramatic yet wearable. Nothing like it in my stash.

I liked Chanel Poésie so much that I wore it like 5 days consecutively---and at which point my other new palettes (there are several) took a back seat it.
I have since given myself a challenge and that is to wear a different e/s palette everyday for the remainder of the month---just to fit them in. I could probably
wear a different one for the remainder of the summer but I want to reserve the right to repeat a palette when I'm really into it---like Poésie.

You've gotten me excited to wear it, and I will soon!

I can't agree to this more. By now I have most of the new YSL palettes (#1,#2,#3,#4,#5,#7,#9,#10) and #9 is truly a stand out. (I have yet to try #11 Ballet Russe though, that one looks also very interesting). #9 is exactly what Haven says, dramatic and unique, yet wearable. I was a little afraid in the beginning but the shades work so nicely together, almost like those apply themselves.

Very well said Medgal - she really has become my go to for swatches and looks. I agree much better at showing the products potential and doesn't feel so clinical.

Medgal, this is the most lovely comment I have ever heard since I started blogging. Demonstrating the full potentiel lol, I always had a heavy hand when it comes to eyes

It was a true comment, and like Meleftie, I have come to rely on your product swatches and assessments. You really do an exceptional job---thank you so much!

I have so many E/S palettes that I have imposed a challenge upon myself to wear a different palette everyday for the remainder of this month. The impetus for this
​ was my inability to stop wearing Poésie. I wore it for 5 consecutive days while my other palettes sat unused & unloved! I hope to get to YSL # 9 this week! I also have
numbers 3 & 7. as well as Fétiche. I'll be looking forward to your review of # 11.

Anyone here giving the YSL Fusion Ink Foundation a try? I see it's up on the YSL site. I bought the Le teint touche éclat foundation long time ago but it didn't work for me. I got oily so fast. Also, the foundation didn't last on me even after setting it with powder and using primer. I wonder if this will be available at Sephora? Anyone know? Thanks in Advanced.

 

[Monsy]

Touch eclat is more of dry skin, no wonder it didn't work for you I have a feeling Ink is same thing as maestro from armani

I have a feeling Ink is same thing as maestro from Armani

and I learned that the hard way.

 

[Tatiana87]

After reading her review I definitely want to give this foundation a try. http://www.frillseeker.ie/blog/ysl-...usion-ink-foundation-you-n-me-launches-august
