Silk Naturals

The color payoff of the SN glosses is far superior to EDM in my experience so far. And no yucky grainy business--quite the contrary...SN glosses feel really nice on the lips.

I don't need any more lip gloss but you guys sure are making this very tempting!!!!!

(Will probably order some after doing research, hehe makeup research, in the forums and looking at swatches, who am I kidding??!)

ITA!! I own both EDM and SN glosses and there is no comparison, the SN ones are way, way superior. EDM glosses always dried my lips out big time and I thought this would change with the new formula but they are still really drying and most shades kind of make my lips look dead lol!! I have a couple of EDM's new lippies and have only used them once as they are as yucky as the old ones!! The SN glosses are super moisturising, beautifully coloured and apply like a dream and I can see me amassing a substantial collection. Precious is a beautiful colour......I have worn it everyday since I got it!!

Hi Everybody! Nice to see everyone.

Oxana, you did an awesome video on the EDM glosses, thank you very much for that!

I loovvee the color Soccer Practice, but after using it for a month I've only used 1/2 and it's a grainy mess. Do you know (or anyone one here) know if there is a Silk Naturals gloss that is the same color?

Off to buy too many SN blushes..

EDIT: I just poked around the the site...and the forum, I found the swatch thread And I ~think~ Birthday Suit looks kinda close. I'm afraid it will be to brown tho. Brown doesn't really work for me, I'm too neutral or something. But I also found Bloom which goes looks beeaautifull. So I might get both. I'm still interested it what others think

If brown lippies don't work for you, try Centerfold or Cultured. Those are what I use when I want to go nude I couldn't do Birthday Suit either, but those other two work nicely.

hi edm-ers! yes im sad about the edm lippies too, barely show on my lips and i bought 5 dif colors!

Thank you very much! My cart is getting very big I've decided I neeed a FS Bloom. And now I also need Cultured, I think Centerfold might be a bit too pale..maybe I can track down a sample. And Charming blush since someone else mentioned it's nice. I have, in my cart, samples of just about every other light blush. I can't decide about tart light, though. It looks a little scary, I might leave that to my next order..which will probably be in a week since shipping is so cheap.

OK enough thinking out loud, haha!

Oh, Tart Light is one of my favorites. It goes really nicely with Bloom - they are both on the cool side and true pinks. As a matter of fact, that combo is what I wore last night Lightly dusted it gives nice flush to your cheeks, so don't be afraid of the dark swatch.

Okay so I forgot CP doesn't deliver today (/cry) so I spent more time racking up a cart. I added some shadows, and I would love some skin care suggestions. I'll probably end up breaking it into two orders to escape Customs.

Hot Blooded- shimmery muted, wearable red
XXX- ultra nude matte vegan lipstick
Maiden- Nude Pink MAC Slimshine Bare clone
Centerfold- very nude tan
Aria- YLBB Nude Pink
Precious- light pink with gold pearl- Hunny Bunny Clone

Medium Coverage Ebony Starter Kit

Eye Shadow Primer Eye Shadow Primer
Carbon - shimmery graphite
Platinum - Neutral Silver Shimmer
Idolize- Golden Blue Plum- MAC Idol Eyes Clone
Storm Coud- Deep Grey Shimmer Eye Shadow

I'm so going to try the Silk Naturals lipglosses - I could never get the EDM ones to work for me (however enthusiastic everyone seems to be about them). I've got a Spring Berries that gives off no colour at all. It looks like a lip balm. I've never heard a similar complaint about this one (but about other colours I did) so I guess I just have a bad one, but still... I like my Honey Mirage and Golden Strawberry better but the taste is kind of yucky. They feel odd to your lips but I have noticed that applying them goes better if you first press the tip to your lips for a few seconds to melt it a little.


The SN ones I have in my cart now are:

Copper Rose
Temptation
Precious (because this one seems very similar to a drugstore gloss I love for the colour with unfortunately zero staying power. I smile and it's gone.)

I'll read this thread for more great suggestions! I just found out I'm not as broke as I thought I was so...
