Hmmm with that theme in mind, maybe "Frappucchino" (or however you spell that..) would be a more fitting name.. :-)

Can´t wait to see what you have in store for us with that theme..although the "Mild to Wild" one sounded interesting as well. ;-)

Hi...I am new to the board and have to say I think I have bought over half of her collection and I love it all! I would love a BeneFit Dallas dupe.

We mentioned MAC's Dame before, but I am so thrilled with Tart, Babydoll, Carnal, Pretty Plum, and Forbidden that I can forego it. Probably :)

I still can't get over five perfect blush shades in one go. The reason the blush collection is way bigger than it needs to be is that over the years I've bought so many 'almost but not quites'.

The time it was five straight winners. I am so so glad for both some wearable pinks (so many companies have a brown-neutral base to pinks that just won't work if you're cool and pale), wearable plums (yes!), and finally - a perfect red. Lumiere's Spiced Apple is nice, and has been my 'red' up until now, but it's got a hint of copper- bronze that I really didn't want in a red shade. Not to diss it. It's a pretty colour. But I think I was having the same problem with red blushes as I was with red lippies, just couldn't find anything that really was wearable.

So I bought Dame- and for the life of me I don't know where I put it. It is a good color- but where it's hiding- who knows.

With NightBreed- have you tried our Wild Woman shade? The sparkle is a little bit different- but the gist is similar- black with glimmer. I like it as a liner shade for more sparkley occasions.

I wish i could think of dupes but SN is the only cosmetics I use really. But there is one lip gloss I would loved duped.

It Bourjois Effect 3D les nudes lip gloss in brun poetic (shade 33) http://www.bourjoisusa.com/lips/gloss/15

It looks uninteriesting on the website but its a great colour and lipgloss. Perfect for summer.

Let me see if I can get to a Sephora sometime and I'll take a look at it. I was just at the one in Albany over the weekend too! Shoot. I live out in the boonies (by choice)- so it may take me a little while to con the husband into going to Rochester, but I'll see what I can do.

It's funny Bourjois here is kind of a "luxury" brand- but when I was in France it's the equivalent of a drug store brand (which goes to show how awesome French grocery stores are- love shopping for beauty products when I visit the MIL).
