Sailor or Sapphire - that is the question?

Post by lov2read68 » Sat Dec 05, 2009 10:48 pm

I'm getting ready to hit the submit button. I'd just like some clarification or confirmation I guess. I want a navy liner. I wore Laura Mercier's Bleu Marine cake liner for years & loved it. Any preferences? Searching through the threads sapphire appears to get more love than sailor. ;) Is sapphire noticably sparkly when wetlined?

I'm a Bobbi Brown girl at heart trying to convert to the same colors only better for me! Hit pan on the Chocolate palette but Stonewashed Nudes was better for me as it was a little cooler. I have umpteen shades of brown/taupe/beige/neutral in my arsenal & am adding more!! Boom, Taupetastic & Burnished are currently sitting in my cart!
Any thoughts, comments or enabling welcomed!

Both Sailor and Sapphire are great Navy colors.....Obviously the main difference is the sparkle in Sapphire. If you don't get a response on the wetlining part, I will try it out tomorrow.

I vote Sapphire, it is amazing, and in fact I am wearing it right now! It looks a bit shimmery when wet lined, but not gross drag queen or anything.

I would also suggest Eerie - I use that a lot when I want a navy-ish accent. Usually line or crease Boom with it, and it makes my eyes pop. Karen also has a navy liner, Midnight.
