Heh? Propinquity?? Are you sure??? I have Propinquity and wanted to press it. But I first tried swatching it with a finger slightly damp with FCO and it was a disaster! It became a flat mauve and lost the amazing gold sheen. How did you do that?

I did nothing special! But don't use FCO (still haven't got round to getting it, gah) so this was all done with the EZ Prez medium. I must have done in a crazy impulsive moment because it was the GWP, it's such a precious colour and I put the whole thing by itself in one pan (it only just covered the bottom haha). But all went well

I use it often and it is super smooth, blends great and has the lovely golden sheen. Must be the FCO/EZ Prez? Or maybe it was still too much FCO? That's such a shame, the gold really makes Propinquity...

Hmmm maybe it's the FCO? Propinquity is still in my "no-press" list. I kept on trying swatching it with FCO bcs I'm curious. But it still disappoints me for losing its glory!

Today I finally tried pressing. I didn't have too many full eyeshadows, so mostly I just mixed stuff together and got some colours I actually really like. I was also missing an actual palette so i used an emty cd case

For the pressing I used hand sanitizer and EZ Press

Does anyone own this palette?
http://theconservatorie.com/eyeshadow-p ... -1479.html
Do you like it? Approximate size? I prefer a free style. I looked at the Unii ones and really like them but I am not sure I want to spend that much money.
If anyone has any suggestions for free style palettes, I would appreciate it. I am in Canada.
Edit: The Conservatorie has a $50.00 minimum order. I really doubt I need that many palettes and I am not sure what else I could order. I think I will skip this site.
