Re: Eye shadow close to Splendid?

Hiya hope you're having a great time!

I'm thinking Sonic. Maybe Juiced or Whisper, though Whisper leans a little towards a nude fleshy pink. Any good?

Re: Spring!!!!

Loving Oxana's flower garden collection inspiration. Caught my imagination. I'm really hoping for more eyelights. If they could be in soft pastel shades, perhaps a little more complex to compliment last year's spring collection, that'd be great. Just one colour request please - a colour like the GWP...

Re: Fall 2009 Mixed Metals Palette

Sorry, must've read that wrong. Thought they were asking for the palette to be duped. Instantly thought of Bobbi Brown's Earth Metals palette (1am brain fuzz here getting names wrong). FWIW, the SN palette came out far prettier.

Re: Fall 2009 Mixed Metals Palette

If you mean Bobbi Brown's Mixed Metals palette, it's already duped.

Re: diy palettes

Never had a problem with the loose powder, but then again, I learned very early on to be cautious about just punching one hole in the sifter sticker and tapping them out gently. (Had a gold glittery one 'explode' once and filled the room like a snow globe). Never had them spill or be wasted that way...

Re: diy palettes

With the greatest of respect, that's convinced me not to press them. While still beautiful, the finished results are not at all the same as the loose eyeshadows I love, even allowing for camera gremlins etc. I wouldn't have recognised most of those if not named. Dampening the shadows seems to create...

Re: Magnum+?

Wot she said. Magnum is basically black so any bold colour you put with it will pack a punch and any pastel or neutral colour will soften the overall effect. I like the thought of Bewitched but Poly / Kingfisher are personal faves for colour. Anything would rock. I like fuchsia-purples against hazel...

Re: Newbie needs help with colour choices!

Hi Bestbeauty First up, customs. The limit is now £15 which is $23.60. Worth checking a good currency exchange site for up to date rates (I like xe.com/ucc) I'd stick to $23 or less. If you want to order $30's worth, I'd recommend splitting it into two $15 orders and adding a note in the comments bo...

Re: Valentine's is LIVE!!!

I've just seen Phyrra's swatches (first class) and am super excited looking forward to receiving my parcel any day now. Bond is exactly what I was hoping for! I'm thrilled Karen could create it. The eyeshadows are long term keepers, very stylish, and I'm delighted with this little collection. I'll b...
