Has anyone layered Gigi and Dixie?

Angie wrote:Ohh, the collection looks fantastic. Karen, would you consider making the lip glazes without menthol in future? Maybe just one or two. They sound great and I would like to try one, but I don't like anything tingly. Thanks. :)

Oh, please ... that would be fantastic. I would really like to try the glazes too, but I'm not much fond of anything minty :(

Btw, thanks for the new bronzers! I need to order the samples soon!

P.S. ... some non-shimmery glosses would be lovely too ... please

I'll try that next, but layering Zinnia over Dixie gives you the perfect strong summery peachy/orange lips. It's a strong lip for sure, but all you need is Lovelace and mascara, and good to go. Although I did play with combining Cloudberry with Biscayne for a simple eye, so there is that too

I know we have a few who are concerned about the size of the eyeliner palette. I made mine last summer when I was in Trumansburg as a trial for the packaging. I have used it nearly every day since then (except for when Molten and Asphalt came out) and I have barely put a dent in any of the six colors I use regularly. If you can use it up in two years time, I will be absolutely amazed.

I have always thought the regular packaging held too much product (I replaced mine after two years use and still had not used half of the contents), and these are about right for the rate the product gets used.

I don't use any SN liners (humidity/perspiration & teary eye issues) but another brand's and I totally agree with you. I don't even make much of a headway into those tiny pots, even with almost everyday usage except on weekends. There's really no need for even a pan full for a single colour, imo. 1/2 1/2 would suffice too. Especially with so many yummy colours to choose from!

I just tried this, and once you have Dixie on, Gigi doesn't seem to come through much. It does make it cooler though, it's different than just layering the same colors twice. Peachy pink

Roxie comes off as a warm red on my pigmented lips, very pretty and wearable!! I've only tried one brand of lip stains (a natural line) and I just couldn't get them to work (stay on and apply evenly). I had no problems with SN's. I'm trying the self tanner tonight.

Just threw Self Tanner on my legs, took a few seconds and I was done. There is NO self tanner smell and no wait time for it to dry. I can't even tell I just put something on. Can't wait to see what I look like in the AM.

I just wanted to say that I am in love with everything I got from this release. It's probably my favorite release to date.

The self tanner is perfect. I love that there's NO SMELL, and the color builds and builds. I'm no stranger to self-tanners, and as long as this one lasts, I'm sold. Please sell it year round

I love the blushes I got--Folly and Bolero especially. Perfect for spring! I'm so excited to finally have a lavender blush. Diablo is very pretty too. I just have to make sure I use only a tiny speckle

The lip stains are great. I bought all four and love every single color. I've been coming up with some fun combos between those and the rest of my stash. Blaze + Dixie = sheer perfection

But my favorite thing is definitely the Amplifying Lip Glazes! I got Blaze, Electra, and Glacier. I LOVE every color. So flattering and really multi-purpose. I can wear them over a ton of lipsticks or stains, or I can wear them on their own. I really love Glacier on its own too. Very cool I would like all of my lip products in this formula! Non glittery shades, balms, lipsticks, and the like

I'm so very happy with everything I got, and I am really excited by the new formulas. I haven't had much money to play around with lately, so I kind of blew my fun budget on the new release, but it was definitely money well spent. Thanks!

Thanks for the tip; I may have just found the bright orange red lippie I've been looking for
