Edit your post, Jen ;-) re your mix! If you'd worn 8 ebony to 1 base, you'd *really* be faking a tan,LOL!

My smash of new colors arrived yesterday & I can't wait to dig in! :-) Wore Grace to bed last night, can tell you that ~ I *always* wear a lippie to bed ~ have to have *both* color & moisture!

I am absolutely loving temp tryst and beach bunny! They are now on top of my Get A Full Size List. Today I wore my regular foundation mix, Temp Tryst as a finishing powder, Beach Bunny as blush, topped with Halo on top of the cheeks. Beach Bunny and Halo are gorgeous paired up and my daughter told me that I had a beautiful natural glow going on today! I think this is going to become my everyday summer look!

I really have to rave about using Climax as a blush AND as a lip-gloss. When mixed with a clear lip gloss this blush turns slightly darker and pinker and makes the most bee-yoo-ti-ful shade! And of course, the lip gloss complements the blush perfectly. The combination is absolutely lovely, summery and glowy!

I loved it so much I took a photo! Click here: http://soloverly.blogspot.com/2008/05/d ... gloss.html to see.

That's a great idea. Also thanks for linking the Orgasm dupe post. Now I wish someone would do the same comparison for minerals (I know *at least* 2 or 3 companies that have orgasm dupes).

You're welcome maggishness. =) I do have more dupe posts on my blog, but not many do I review both the expensive one and the dupe - it's hard to own both!

What a pretty blog Kahani. Lots of good info! I enjoyed the dupe comparisons too, as well as your reviews of the other SN products...

J-
I will work on that today. The day I wore Capricious last week was too overcast for good pics. I will just add it to this post when I get one! ;)

Wonderful blog! I'm going to read more tonight at home!

A combination that I've been wearing recently - it's not quite as 'done' as I sometimes normally do, but it's just a bit more than very natural is wearing cashmere all over, and lining with dolce. I love it!

(Not sure if this one has been posted yet, sorry!)
