Holiday Sets: When are they revealed?

[eastofthesun]

Thank you, lady. I did an Anna look this morning. I can't do scary Halloween looks, my big full cheeks make it pretty impossible to look ominous, lol

By the way, what blush and lipstick are you wearing in your photo? They look super good on you too! If you tell me the blush is one of the hourglass palette blushes, I'll pretty much be sold.

I think it's the eyebrows too- they look great on you like that!

By the way, who is Anna? Sorry, I'm a bit... lost. Hahah!

It is, it's Luminous Flush. The lip is Tarte Lipsurgence in Alluring.

That UD Naked Vault :wub:    I tend not to buy products in UD's permanent lineup, I am much more drawn to LE stuff, so the only thing I already have is Naked 2.  And I've had it since it was first released so the shadows are the older formula.  This is a killer deal, and the packaging is so pretty......And I've been wanting Naked 3............

Anna is the younger sister in the movie Frozen.  I could probably recite the whole movie line for line :blush:

Sorry, I must of skimmed over that, lol @@Bikerchic is correct

Darn you, now I have to buy the Hourglass blush palette!!!!! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> But seriously, you look gorgeous. What eyebrow stuff is that? I  need to know. You should wear that eyebrow color always and do your hair like that. The faux bangs look super flattering on you!

Thanks! I should have guessed with the braids. I love that movie!

Are the older formula shadows better or worse than the newer ones?

Are the older formula shadows better or worse than the newer ones?

To me it seems like the older shadows crease a little, but that's minor because I'm talking about creasing after 12+ hours, and are a bit drier in texture.  They also don't seem to be quite as pigmented as the new shadows.  But really I don't notice that much of a difference.

Just eyeshadow, theBalm's Racy Kacy. I'm growing my hair out so red eyebrows won't be relevant for much longer (hopefully, I swear it's taking forever) and I've never been one for brows, I can see the difference but it's just not really for me. My natural ones are blonde and not completely unruly so I try not to mess with them much.

This looks amazing!  I really want it, I only have Naked 2, so it wouldn't be a lot of dupes for me.  I'd love to see the blushes swatched!

I have the Flushed palette in Naked, if you'd like to see that one swatched! I've still been meaning to post Viva Glamorous palette too so I could do both! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Here are swatches of the Urban Decay Flushed Palettes:





HEAVILY swatched on my arm 1x - no primer.

I really like them a lot and I don't regret getting all four

*side note: a certain palette is not only for a specific skintone since all of them works fairly nice on me.

I'll try to post swatches of MAC's Heirloom Mix Lipsticks later on today or tomorrow!

 

[turntrekgodhead]

I'm adoring L'Occitane's new sets btw. Cute, so affordable and perfect for nearly anyone!

 

[felicia1995]

For whatever reason, I'm strangely not tempted by the UD Naked vault (how many neutral colors do I really need in my life?)...BUT. I adore the slouchy boots the person holding the vault is wearing! More boots, less naked! LOL

How do you pick up the product? I have Korres ones that have the stripes but they have the highlighter, blush, bronzer in order for a one swipe look and my Too faced ones are all pinkish so it's purely a blush.

I just use my bronzer/contour brush, highlighter brush, and a blush brush since they all fit nicely into the compact without the different shades mixing together /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> the Korres and Too Faced are fairly smaller so it's harder - you'll definitely need a smaller brush if you want to pick up an individual shade.

 

[tweakabell]

Got ya. That's what I was wondering if you used them together or individually.

Loving the swatches! I may have to make one of these mine at some point. Well if I ever finish any of the ones I have.

I have Strip, and love it!  I use one brush to apply the blush and highlighter, then use the side of the brush to dab a little bronzer to the sides of my nose.  Sometimes I add a blush over the top for a darker look.

 

[Bikerchic]

I'm really liking Streak!  I will have to pick that up for sure.
