Me, but I signed up literally hours before they shipped so I kind of expected that /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I don't use liquid eyeliner (including marker types) on my waterline as a general rule. It bleeds easily, and might irritate your eyes or lead to an infection. For waterlining and tightlining, a creamy pencil works best for me, like Urban Decay's 24 hour ones, Stila Kajals, MUFE Aqua Eyes, or MAC Kohls. With so many great ones on the market, I'd steer clear from getting liquid liner that close to my eye. Not worth the risk, IMO.

My bag is out for delivery! I hate that my mail person always comes late. Usually it is somewhere around 4 or 5 before I get my mail. Argh!

I just got mine last night, and Gmail put it in my spam folder, so be sure to check that if you don't already have them added to your contacts list.

I got my bag today!  I got the Eyeshadow quad #4 and I can't wear pinks around my eyes.  They make me look like I have serious allergies or something.  Would anybody like to trade for # 3 or 6?  I would love a neutral color quad.  I'll also be updating my trade list today and I am going to just trade away the lip bomb (none of the colors are something that I would want), and the eyeliner (I can't do black).  Send me a PM if interested!

 

[mimosette]

  I got my second bag today, another #4 lip bomb. I'd love to trade it for one of the other colors. PM me if you want to trade !

I'd love to swap my #9! I've already sent you a PM! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Here is lip bomb 4 (Mirror Me) swatched and on the lips (after about 45 minutes...serious staying power)...forgive the sloppy application, but the color is so super pigmented! Amazing.







And the #7 colors in person are super pretty /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 

[viccckyhoang]

i really do hope that i get a color that pops! no nudes please >.<

 

[skylola123]

I am so sad I got my bag today and received the Costal palette in #1 with gorgeous blues/mint/grey/ & white but I would never wear these colors.

If anyone got any with browns or pinks or even the costal palette with the red eyeshadow in it please let me know.

I got Balm 4 and would love to trade for a red balm (or even super hot pink, this in between color doesn't really suit me well). 

Got set 2 in eyeshadow. Pretty colors but really want to trade for a set 3 or 7! (would also consider 6). Here is the shadow:



Oh and the hair oil smells GOOOOOD

 

[katelynbby]

I got the bomb 4 and was sad at how dull it looks in the tube, on the applicator it looks crazy dark, though! 

Got set 5 of the eyeshadow, and Lip Bomb 4.  Literally the ONLY set I didn't want and the ONLY Lip Bomb I didn't want!  Raisin Berry is the only pretty color I can use with my coloring, and I already have a dupe of it.... that's Urban Decay, lol.  Also, is it just me or did I get a WARM eyeshadow quad and a COOL lippie?

Am torn about trading, because I do want to try and give them a chance, but after that no trading.  XD

I know how you feel, I'm dying to try my lip balm but i KNOW it's not a color I'd really like.... same with shadows. Still happy with the bag though /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Maybe try applying the lippie with a Q-tip rather than the applicator that comes with it? I know some people are very adamant about only trading for new/unopened products, but others are pretty open to products that have been tried once. For a lip product like this, I don't see how it would be a deal-breaker if you tried it without the actual applicator coming in contact with your lips. (But maybe that's just me.)

Oh yeah, still love the bag.  So much make-up!  My only true nitpick is that there was a loose string on my bag and the bomb container was a bit smooshed.  I just doubt how "customized" these bags were.  Even with my distaste for the quiz, it should have at least picked up on my UNDYING LOVE FOR RED LIPS.

Examples of questions I would have liked to have seen:

My undertones are:  Warm, cool, neutral, not sure

I like lip products that are: bold, nude, bright, dark

I like lip product finishes that are: Glitter, stain, gloss, cream, matte, frost

I like eyeshadow finishes that are: Glitter, satin, shimmer, matte, frost, cream

I like face product finishes that are: Dewy, matte, natural, cream

I tend to use ____ colors:  Blues, purples, browns, reds, yellows, golds, greens, etc

I would love to try ____ colors: (ditto)

My favorite kind of product is:  Eyeshadow, lipstick, lip gloss, bronzer, eyeliner, false lashes, concealor, etc.

My least favorite kind of product is:  (ditto)

Thanks for the tip.  I have been worried that there was a problem with mine (I signed up at the 9th hour for this months bag) and my shipping notice was in my spam folder from yesterday /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Yeah I'm *slightly* concerned about the shades I got this month, but most people seem to be super happy with theirs so I can't fault them for a system that isn't perfect. I just wish we could revisit our quizzes. Even if I give away the shadow and lip balm, the mascara, makeupbag and hair oil is still a good deal to me !
