OR layer it with a different lip liner or lipstick as a base then apply the pink over it.

Omg i got my ipsy bag today and i love just about everything!!!

I'm surprised, the Mirenesse lip bomb impressed me. It's not sticky like some lip glosses but it has color too, and it is not sheer. The color is staying on and i love it!
   I think i'll trade the oil tretment though, i have a lot of those.
 
 the Be a bombshell eyeliner is awesome!! But i'm wondering if it is going to be hard to get off. It seems to stay pretty well. Does anyone know if it's waterproof?
 
The balm what's your type mascara looks like it is worth a try. Iv'e been using the blinc mascara from BB on my bottom lashes so it does not give me dark undereyes after a whole day of wearing mascara. I'm hoping the balms mascara will give me volume on my upper lashes. 
 
the coastal scents eye shadow is probably being traded as well. I have a LOT of eyeshadow palettes.

What colors did you get?

That's very, VERY good to hear!

FOR THOSE WHO GOT YOUR BAG.

Would you please post in that thread what Coastal Scents set you got and what lip color you got. I'd love to see what people are getting along with what your coloring is to see if they're using the profiles to customize our bags.

I received my bag today after only receiving my shipping notice earlier today!  So that was a nice surprise! I received my BB shipping notice like 2 days ago and it still has not updates its status. 

On a different note, I have set 5 of the eyeshadow quad if anyone is willing to trade for set 3, 4, 6 or 7?

 

[Fluttershy]

Erm...  can someone give me the weight of their package?  Mine says it's only .3560 which seems a bit on the "empty" side??

 

[Missglammygirl]

mine is around the same weight, .3446

I got my bag today.

I got the Lip Bomb in #2 and the costal scents #8

I'm looking to trade my LB for the pink shade and my CS for set #3 or #6

Hi.  I received the #9 Lip Bomb, and would love the #2.  I am not sure if this is the pink color you are referring to.  I posted pics further up in the thread.  Would you be interested in trading?

 

[kawaiimeows]

i don't see anyone who got eyeshadow set #1 or #2 yet in the "what set did you get thread" also noticed that nobody who has responded has black hair fair skin combo, so hopefully one of those sets will be what i get!!

i'm pretty sure i'll find out tomorrow since today my bag was like 2 hours away.

Has anyone gotten lip bomb # 4? That's the only one I think would work for me. Looks like everyone's getting the red and nude/pink.

Got the bag today the same day as my shipping email, now that's service! I got the lip bomb in # 9 and the quad in #4. I like the consistency of the lip bomb but the color is wrong for me. I think they assumed that lighter skinned women would be looking for a milky pink, but I think this would actually look better on dusky skin. It's very 60's Diana Ross. The quad is nice, I don't use black eyeliner, and Body Builder mascara should be interesting, along with the hair oil. The best thing about it is the bag, great idea Fairest! I gave my cousin a Barbie ornament with the striped suit, and this will make a nice addendum.

I actually received #4, I haven't tried it yet but I'm pretty sure I would rather have the red.

I also received eyeshadow quad #2

Eyes: Brown

Skin Tone: Medium

Hair Color: Dark Brown

Set#2

Lip Bomb #4

This is pretty much close to my exact profile (short of our fashion senses) and we got completely different things. I'm pretty sure they stuck whatever in the bags and called it a day.

Probably!  I don't remember answering anything in any way that would have influenced them to give me the quad with the yellow eyeshadow

.

Odd, mine is .45

Well, if you don't want it I will gladly trade you! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> That happens to be the one I want most. I'm wondering if, instead of our coloring, they based it on the style preference we selected on the first page of the quiz. Unfortunately for most of us we can't remember what we put and there's no way to retrieve that information... sigh.

 

[deactivateduser232015]

I got CS #6 and lip balm #9. I already put out a few requests for red lip balm trades but I'm not sure if any of those people already have stuff set up. If you have #2 (red) and want the pink, let me know and I'd be happy to trade.

I already tried it with a nude Colorstay Liquid Lipstick, but the pink is almost a pink-white, so the nude can't help.  I'll just set it aside until one of the boxes sends me some hideous super-dark brown or burgundy or something.  'Cause you know it's coming! 

 

[deactivateduser232015]

Picture of my bag:

The lipgloss and the pink from #6 actually go really well together. I usually wouldn't mind, but I have about four lipglosses already in that color so I just want to try something new.
