I really love Charmed and Honey together, too, and they're great colours.

Yes, she's home, hasn't slept, tired but totally wired, spent 16 and some hours in transit yesterday. Aside from PJs, toiletries and a few other essentials, the cases are just sitting there. I am not unpacked - but the new stuff is all in one organza bag so easy to get at when I fluff again :D

PS: United Airlines is EVIL. But I got here. Today is more likely to be sleep when I finally conk out than makeup, though.

I *thought* I wished you a safe trip earlier, Rhys! Maybe I only hit preview, ROFL! Glad you're home safe & sound. Sleep is good,lol. Your face will wait.

Soft wash of Nudge Nudge lash to brow, Bewitched on outer half of lids & heavier in < >. Angel Mineral Glow as highlights. Tried Bewitched drylined but needed extra oomph so wetsmooshed into lashes a liner (mineral) I've had for years. Tart Light as blush...& Tart just on apples. Breathless lippie. Date Bait + Love Lure finisher.

I am fairly new to SN but I do have my go to products already. Date Bait is now part of my daily routine along with climax blush. I went on a blush buying spree and Lovelace is definitely my newest favorite.
I have tons of lovely colors but I decided that I needed a more muted neutral more professional set of shadows. I went pretty much all pink and my fave look is:
nekkid on lid
disco in crease and inner 3rd of lid
whisper as highlight
because I would feel color starved otherwise I general will lightly line my upper and lower lid with a pretty bright or deep color, which varies greatly!

Hi all

Before for I get to the combo, just got to say love the new site karen, can't wait for more products to come out. :lol:

Right this latest combo is (at the mo) my hands down fav. Gotten lots of compliments on it.

Nymphs from the crease up to the brow bone (so loving this highlight colour, perfect for the office without being dull), charmed from lash line to crease (all over lower lid), then grassroot green in the crease and well as applying some to the lash line as liner, then apply black masacara (again I recommend the one karen sells)

I have red hair and blue eyes and everyone at the office loves it.
Foundation: 1: baggie 6: ebony: 7 glow
Fav blush: Steller
Fav Lippie: Symphony
Fav combo: cream 1st half of lid, 09:59 2nd half, chocolate twinkle in the crease with Blackheart over it blended out and vanillia on brow bone.

That sounds great! I like Nymph as a backdrop color on me ~ as you say, it's not dull, just a nuance of color. I used it today, matter of fact, as a backdrop for tropical colors. It's Friday, I was too tired & too blah (LOL!) so I perked my mood up with color. Breathe on inner half of lid, Teal Appeal on outer 3rd, Lush in the outer corners top & bottom. Lush also wide dryline. SN mascara, Berry Nice topped w/Berry Crush, Carnal blush. Love Lure, of course!

Oh dear. Nymph is one of the few I don't have. Must remedy that - soon!

I love Nymph and use it often either as a highlight color or an allover lid wash . It definately is a must in my book.
