So I'm not really big on cat eyes so I did a baby one. We'll see how it holds up during the day as when I tested it out the other day it flaked into my eyes. The application I find I needed 2-3 clicks to get the coverage I wanted and I didn't even do a large wing so I disagree with their one click does both eyes statement. I like the clean line it gives I sometimes have issues getting crisp lines and this one was well defined. If you have an already established cat eye routine I'm not sure this will be any groundbreaking application method but I think it's a nice carry around gel liner, not sure it's worth the $21 (?) price.

I REALLY WISH I COULD SIZE THE PICTURES AGAIN! So sorry about pic size but I'm not resizing them just for MUT

So pretty! love your ear cuff.

The Too Faced Cat Eye Palette is up on Sephora's website!  I am trying hard to not buy it.  I checked and it is not up on Ulta yet.

Just need a good code to push me to buy!

You guys, I HATE that Benefit liner. I was so excited for it, and ugh. I don't get it- the design doesn't help make a cleaner straight line and it definitely didn't help me make a cat eye. The worst part is the stays-but-doesn't- GOD HELP YOU if you make a mistake! I INSTANTLY used a makeup removing cloth when the liner caught on my eye, and it LITERALLY just made it smear all the way down the left side of my face. It took four of those Kat Von D makeup removing cloths to remove a 1/16th inch mistake. I couldn't believe how such a little bit of liner created so much smear. Hate it.

Also I don't know if this has been said, but that 100pt Givenchy lipstick is the same shade that came with the Marc Jacobs mascara and Hourglass primer (I believe) in that amazing 3-piece code from a while back.

I have heard you have to buy their makeup remover for it..

Yeah I noticed that so I didn't order. I'm actually glad someone brought this up because someone had recommended that color for me on another forum and it had been sitting in my cart.... I had received it back in that set and it was horrible for me so I'm glad I realized this time around so I could remove it from my cart

For those of you guys who have been wondering about the new-ish Fresh color, Tulip.... I ordered it and received it yesterday. I love it. It's an awesome hot pink color. It also stays pretty well.

When I was in Sephora, the woman who helped me test it out used a Lancome eye makeup remover to fix my mistakes. She said to use oil-based remover with it, or else it would be a mess and take for.ev.er.

 

[wadedl]

The oil based remover is a must. The first day I used the Julep Oil Cleanser no problem and the second day my face was so oily I was able to just wipe it off. lol 

The cleanser they sell is a cream base.  I would think the best way to fix a mistake is a q-tip with a cream or oil based cleanser.

I just got the Tulip color in a few days ago too.  I agree, so pretty and fresh.  I like that it is a bright pink, but not neon or barbie.  It also leaves a beautiful stain hours later with just one application, which is surprising.

I use the Lancome eye makeup remover, bi facial or whatever it is, in the blue bottle.  It gets the benefit liner off instantly.  A tiny drop does the job if you smudge application.  

My e.l.f. studio makeup remover wipes get it off pretty easily as well, and they are not oil based.

To those with a Clarisonic Mia or those that have tried one: Do you recommend? I've never been lured in because I've heard as many bad things (breakouts that never end, as in skin isn't just purging, that they're TOO rough and TOO much exfoliation is just as bad as not enough, that they aggravate skin and that they cost too much to do something one can do manually) but with the introduction of the "cashmere" bristle set (which I've heard GOOD things about) I'm interested.

I really like mine. It isn't a miracle worker but I use it every other day and my skin is very soft. I never experienced a purge (but know people who said they have), but I use a gentle head and again, don't use it every day. I did break out a little on occasion before using it so I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. I got mine from Birchbox, but Sephora has some really nice sets available that I was eying up before I got mine!

Also - I think there is a thread with people listing pros and cons of using a Clarisonic. I can look for it if you can't find it! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I agree - it certianly does leave a nice stain.

I just wish they would sell minis - I prefer the size of the minis for application. I have rather large lips and I still feel like the full sizes are a bit on the wide side.

I love my Clarisonic! I'm acne prone and it didn't cause any problems for me. Try the skin store.com, they often have 20%off and ebates is often 12% back.

$20 off $100 code is wink, ebates is 10% and the Mia is $99. I have the plus, but I generally only use setting 1 which is all the Mia has. I would get the Mia if I had to do it over /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I love my Mia2! Got it for Christmas 2012 and use it a lot. I love that you can switch out the brush heads depending on how your skin is. I do however not like the Clarisonic cleansers. You will break out more at the beginnig as all the bad stuff is coming out of your skin. But with continuing care, I find my skin clears up well. I have to mention though that I only break out slightly with hormonal changes. I am definitely wanting to try the cashmere bristle set!

If it's not a bother? That would be great, thank you!

I definitely think that the "purging" is just a marketing myth- there is a reason that it has the same symptoms as over exfoliating. But I do have a clarisonic and I love it- I never experienced this "purge" because I let my skin get used to it (starting with using it every other day just in the morning)

I still use mine every other day once per day. It's easy to get super hyped about new skincare products and jump right into them, but that generally causes me to break out even if the product isn't bad. Gradually introducing new products into my routine has been really helpful for me.
