Re: more matte shadows

I give another vote for matte (but not flat) shadows. But I do like the radiant polished suede finish of Bailey, and the sophisticated pearly finish of Papyrus. Both of those eye shadows have a very silky feel and beautiful sheen for those who can't do shimmer. I think someone else on the forum ment...

Re: Do we have this in SN?

As I said, per Oxana's review, Coy and lip stains do not blend very well. I also did manage to find a way to mix them, although the blending phase is quite a pain. Dot Coy on the lips, dot the lip stain on the Coy dots, then blend blend blend BLEND like kkkrrrreeeeezzzeehh. If you can find the perf...

Re: Valentine's is LIVE!!!

I am traveling through China at the moment and have not been able to place an order since the Valentine's Day Collection was launched -- frustrating! Has anyone tried Scarlett? I am just dying to see it, but I cannot find a swatch on this site. I cannot view any blogs or YouTube thanks to The Great...

Re: Pale coral

Just had to run off to check Jennifae's blog-So Vain is beautiful! I liked the other colors in the post, too!

Re: Do we have this in SN?

Provoke shows up lighter on me, and adding Coy will make it look like a light lilac color..but Provoke seems like it's in the same spectrum as Flaunting It. Flaunting It looks more like Provoke + a bit of sheer black gloss/or sheer dark purple gloss. You could also try Kiki + Provoke..if it becomes ...

Re: Lip Stains + ??

Kiki + Provoke = intensified Provoke! Scarlet + blue shimmer lip gloss (I was inspired by the Vamp + Icing combo)..maybe Glacier ALG could work. Trixie + Allure + a bit of clear lip gloss = Trixie alone doesn't look good on me, but with Allure it becomes a wearable orange peach. I only added the add...

Re: Valentine's is LIVE!!!

Happy Pregnancy!! Decorating the nursery sounds fun...and probably even more challenging since you'll be having a boy (unless you take the easy route and do a neutral-gender theme..hehe). That's cool you'll be having a boy..I'm sure you'll make an awesome mom who'll raise a gentleman! Thanks for rel...

Re: Dupe of Buxom Princess Gloss

What a whimsically romantic color! It does have that fanciful princess vibe. And very interesting...it's like a neutral-cool tone base with gold. I agree with tardis..The gold makes this color wearable for other skin tones (not just cool). It's youthful and elegant. I don't know why I'm imagining en...

Re: Valentine's and the New Year!

I'm glad you're recovering nicely, Karen. I think switching to vegan color bases for foundation seems like a good idea. I've tried both vegan and regular and didn't notice any differences. I will add my desire for a few more lip stains: a true Red, a neutral or warm Rose shade, and also a shade simi...

Re: Lip Stain Shades

3 - light lilac/lavender 4 - Something more coral/orange than Dixie without too much red, or any red, really. A purple or pink/purple lip stain would be nice for the future. I agree with these suggestions. It would be awesome to see something in the purple family in the future...a wearable lavender...
