The glee is too dark for me. I prefer something lighter.nomoney said:so is it a yay or nay for the glee? I was thinking of getting some.....

I like it used as a blusher, but not all over my face. It doesn't add a lot of color, just a bit of highlight.nomoney said:
The routine:
Foundation
Concealer
Warmth in the E pattern around my face
Smidge of Radiance on the apples of my cheeks
Finish with Mineral Veil
I bought the kit with Glee, Clear Radiance and Warm Radiance - comes in a pink zipper pouch. This will last me a lifetime, even after I gave the Glee to my DIL.

Yep. I like the glowing, well-rested look. :shrug:pixiegirl said:Again, you want to highlight your nose?

And I suppose that's why you don't understand my shimmer application. Not that it matters, though - everyone has their own routine.pixiegirl said:I don't know what your nose has got to do with looking well rested but ok.

The one thing I HATE about this stuff!
That the names of each product are on the bottom of the jars, so I end up with a ton of stuff above the sifter in the pot, and inevitably spill some when I go to sprinkle what I need in the lid to swirl. Why can't they put the name (i.e., concealer, foundation, glee, eye color, etc) on the top/lid?
Oh, and if anyone knows of a nice make-up trunk somewhere, lemme know. I saw the ones on sephora, but don't want to spend $100 on one. But something large enough to accomodate my make-up, brushes, and a couple other facial needs (cleansers) for overnighters.

Tell me about it! The only one that says what it is on top is the Mineral Veil (which I freakin' spilled all over the bathroom floor at our new house a few weeks agocrabcake said:That the names of each product are on the bottom of the jars, so I end up with a ton of stuff above the sifter in the pot, and inevitably spill some when I go to sprinkle what I need in the lid to swirl.

). I saw some train cases at Target once, but I don't remember what they look like. I asked for a train case for Christmas but didn't get one mad so I guess I'll ask for one for my birthday. :hrmph: Check eBay, I think I saw some on there a few months ago.

The MV is the one I spill the most, probably b/c it's such a big container (I bought the big one, and put the little one in the compact to keep in my purse.Nickel said:Tell me about it!

)I like the $90 one from Sephora, but I wanna see if I can find one out there for less. I might just buy a tackle box and paint it myself if I don't find something that blows my skirt up.

That is so true but as long as I've had it I've more than got my moneys worth. Still use it too...it's even got a handy dandy mirror so you can raise the shelves up and put your face on w/ everything right at your fingertipscrabcake said:That's all they really are; glorified tackle boxes for 10 times the price.

I just bought one for 1.25.
Shipping is like $20 (that's where they get ya I guess), but it's cheaper than the $90 one at Sephora, and is basically the same thing.

I'm looking for something like this one. I don't like the itsy bitsy compartments most of 'em have. The 3-tiered feature of this one is good b/c the top could be for "eyes", second for "cheeks" (blush and shimmer crap) and third for "face" (foundation/concealer) and lips, and the bottom section (depending on how much room is down there once it's closed) could be for brushes and other facial products (cleansers, moisturizers, etc.).
Holy hell:

That's cool if you win the auction for $5-10, but if you do BIN like I usually do cuz I am not patient enough for the auction to end.
