Oooh contests. Good call. I just put one on my blog. An SN twist on a classic carnival game.

Good luck!

I NEED Lola as a full-sized lippie! I'm almost out of my GWP and I'll die if I can't get more of it! I'm in LOVE! :mrgreen:

I want uber-nude lips. I really liked Divine. Centerfold looks really red on me... many nude colors don't really work for me, but Divine did. I would love it in a black label with a bit more pigment. I also like Rhonda but I want that for winter, not fall. I still want that yellow lip gloss MAC makes. I can't remember the name of it. But it's pure yellow with pink and gold shimmery pearl tones.

Ummmm also how about more blushes? I loved Pretty Plum for last fall. I could also go for something on the peachy/orange side - or GOLD with shimmer - but I realize this could be tricky for my cool yellow, pale skin... but Karen, if anyone can do it, you can. I will only buy powder blush, not cream. HTH. Think Beach Bunny for fall... or Goldie Gold for cheeks.

For eyes, I will likely wear muted, neutral-cool brown shades with rich eyeliner colors like plum, rich gold, and deep green. I plan to place emphasis on eyeliner and blush this autumn. (But I don't need any new liner shades unless SN creates a softer formula, like a liquid or cream.)

i second the request for a yellow lip gloss. the mac one was called "liberated" i think, and my current favorite lip gloss is one by NYX called "honey"--it's yellow too. i'm LOVING it. i'm using it up so fast even though i have 10000 glosses to choose from (at least it seems like i have that many :)

i'm wishing that the pH balaced toner would come back...my skin's getting dryer as the weather turns colder...

i found an interesting product that e.l.f. makes and gave it a whirl. it's called an "eye transformer" palette and it's basically pressed iridescent powders that you can layer over your normal eyeshadows to make them into what we like to call 'morphing shadows'--so basically you can change any shadow into a morphing one. elf's palette has 4 colors--a light yellow gold, a peach, pink, and blue/purple. i'll have to play with it more (really i've only swatched it so far), but given the popularity of the morphing shadows, i thought i'd mention it. you could do deep golds, bronze, olive, or jewel toned glimmer for fall...

I would also love to see rich, dark eye liners, like plum, plummy brown, dark green, golden black. Bold eye liners with a muted color wash on the eyes, and nude like blush.

i think nude-almond-peachy-orange creamy lip color would be nice with fall smoky eyes. :)

thank you for the contest. I like them too. The song one drove me nuts til I got them all, but in a good way. ;) It was a lot of fun, actually.
I got in just in time on Bitsy and made a lucky guess! Bitsy looked to me to be about halfway between my 2 dogs (5 lb and 12 lb)
