Dear ladies,

I have a friend I want to make a small present my friend some of SN stuff.

Here is this lady's blog where you can see her photos http://www.financialorganizing.info/201 ... son-alert/

I am thinking of Hotblooded lippie as it seems to me pretty versatile, but I hope for your advice. She has got a Naked Palette of the Urban Decay so she is provided with shadows, so I wanted to present her smth else. Lippie, some balms and something like Perfecting powder.

I hope for your advice! Thanks in advance!

Hot Blooded does sound like a good call, but how about something a bit more adventurous? Looking at the second image, all I could think of was Rapturous. Sultry may be a nice choice too.

Thank you Andrea! I will add them to the wish list!

Do you have any suggestions of blushes/glows? I think that some samples will be good too? She is so nice and she wants to find her style, be more feminine and I want to help her somehow. I have shown her this site but she was so overwhelmed that said it is too complicated. Maybe is I send her some samples it will be easier? What do you think?

I suggest Prelude lippie. My mom and I both love this color, and we have different coloring --she's a blue-eyed blonde, and well, obviously I'm not! :lol: It gives a beautiful color without being over the top, and I feel nicely put together when I wear it.

If you do samples of blushes/glows, you may want to include a brush, too. I think it is very sweet of you to do this for your friend! :D

What about lip balms? They always seem to make a great gift. Or maybe I'm just surrounded by women like me who compulsively apply lip balm throughout the day.

Thanks for advice, ladies!

But... could you suggest some blushes/glows for this lady? Pretty please :-)

I would definitely go with the samples instead of one full size, until she finds the one that works for her.

It's a little difficult to judge her complextion/tone, as one pic shows her as cool/neutral, but the other is more on the warm side.
Based on your opinion, which is it? It seems that Climax or Satisfied is a universal color, and Flirt seems to work on a lot of us too, and they are both nice complements for bolder lips. Gemini may be a good choice too.
She probably wants to start with something simple, not too sparkly or bold, right? Oh, don't forget the perfecting glows, for a little something extra :)

Thanks, Andrea :-) I was thinking about several samples.

As for cold-warm... I do not know - I have never seen her in the flesh... Maybe something like Blur powder or your HG? Sample Ultimate Luxury Treatment Powder? A I have surely chosen Prelude (thanks Zooeyblue!) and Rapturous (Andrea :-)) + smth (?)

Oh, I couldn't live without the ultimate luxury treatment powder! If I got enough sleep, I could maybe just use that a bit tinted instead of base, foundie and finishing powder. Good call ;)
