I'm thinking of buying the eyeliner package (haven't worn eyeliner in YEARS). Suggestions?
You can use the eyeliner either wet (for a more dramatic line) or dry (for more subtle). As fair as you are, you might think the eyeliners in the kit are too dark. Get an eyeshadow instead, with the liner brush, and maybe try that for eyeliner.

Oh yeah, and the eyeshadows/glimmers are a shade or two darker IRL than it shows on the Sephora website.

What color eyeshadow's ya think? They have the "wine country" kit, which fits my personality, :lol: but may just look like hell on me. Then there is the "meet the browns", brown looks pretty good on me, plus I could use it as a liner. Definitely not going with greens. Green eyeshadow has always clashed with my baby blues. :drama: :lol:

How is the glee as far as blush? I think I need a pinker shade than the warmth, especially when summer rolls around.

You could do the Meet the Browns - then the darker one can be an eyeliner.

The glee isn't really a blush - it's more of a highlighter - but you could probably use it as blush because your complexion is so light.

We really need to have a girls night make-up party, so we can do make-over's on each other before actually forking out the cash to buy something that may just look horrid.

I'll volunteer my place and send the rest of the family to a hotel. :biggrin: :wink: :lol:

That's what I was gearing towards. The wine country stuff is bolder, and more of a statement, but I think I'm more of a conservative when it comes to eyeshadow. :lol:

Be about it
I'm overwhelmed already! :lmao: I've opened my box of stuff a few times and read the directions, but need to swipe off all of my makeup and pop in the How-To DVD. I'm skeered...there are about 20 little round jars of stuff. Watch, I'm going to end up with them all over my face where they don't belong! :razz:

Okay, I confess. Pixie and I went into Sephora today, but I ended up buying Mac instead.

I'll come, but I ain't playin'....as long as it's the middle of summer when I have a free weekend.

But wait, there's more...
I checked the "Lip Injection" out tonight, and I gotta say, while it tingles your lips a bit, I didn't notice any real plumping; it's more the illusion of plumping b/c of the glossy look, IMO. I dig the tingle though ... I think Kwillia said it was like you'd just gotten kissed on the smacker really hard/good. :really:

I have glee and its dark! I don't really use it much because it's too dark. I use the warmth everyday. As far as eyeliner, I'm stuck on Revlon Colorstay. I've tried eyeliner after eyeliner, and I can honestly say, this is the best stuff ever!! It stays on ALL day and ALL night!! Everything else just ends up 'bleeding' after a few hours, but not this stuff.

Actually, it circulates the blood vessels in your lips so that your "natural" color is enhanced. The full-size tube is $18 online at Sephora.
