Plush Lash rocks. I picked it up on a whim and really like it. It has a great fluffy brush.

I agreeeeee. It goes on really nice and it doesn't feel sticky or clump up on my eyelashes. I am so picky on mascara too.

I love alpha girl too lol, it is really sheer and it have a really naturally blush

I have also try hollywood night (your thought is the exactly same as mine ) and lollipop loving (i love it with a lil bit of hollywood night under it ) is cute too

now the problem is the monkey >.< ...
but anyhow, how does you guys like plush lash?

i don't know. the plush lash makes my lashes clumpy. maybe it's because i use talika, too, and my lashes have grown a lot and are now almost too long. sometimes i have to trim them.

i use fresh supernova mascara in black magic. it's a bit more pricey, $25, but so worth it.

 

[ediewarhol]

^ That's weird. Maybe it is because of what you are using.

 

[izzie stevens]

^ maybe. but if it were, it would probably do the same with every mascara i try to use, i'd think.

i think it may just be that my lashes are ridiculously long now.

 

[ediewarhol]

That is true. I wish it didn't clump for you, because I love it on mine.

 

[izzie stevens]

^ do you pump the brush a lot when using it? i found that when i did, it would clump up even more. but then again, pumping the brush is so second nature to me.

Nooo. My Mother taught me when I first started using make up that is a big no no. But even so! I did it once and my eyelashes looked horrific.

^ no matter how many times i am told how bad it is for the brush, i always forget and pump at it.

quick question!

Which red do you girls like the most? I've just ran out of Ruby Woo & Russian Red...not sure if i should buy two more tubes or buy my fave (ruby woo) and try out MAC Red.

Which is your fave and why?

 

[ragtag]

Ruby Woo is my favorite red... i love the intense pigment, matte texture and how it wears. it is such a bold red, but when i wear red lips i like to really do it up. Russian Red and Ruby Woo do look quite similar.... Ruby Woo just appears to be more blue-toned.... but MAC Red looks a little more subdued in terms of brightness, and is a satin rather than a matte. personally i love the matte finish in a red lipstick.

 

[Juicy]

Thats why i love RW too...its uber matte because its a powdered lippie!...can't get any more retro than a powdered red lipstick lol

The ooooonly thing i don't like is, due to it ultra-matteness, it wont run back further on your bottom lip...so you can see your own skin/lip if you were to pout or talk a certain way? Its so so dry it just wont go on that little part of the inside of your lip.

I mix RW and RR to avoid this tho

 

[ragtag]

^ ah, thanks - that's a good tip! i've run into that issue too - the matte texture is 'repelled' on the moist inner parts of your lips.

That collection looks so gorgeous, I love blues!

 

[Trista]

Ooooh thank you! I was kind of wondering "What next?" because I had only heard about the Dazzleglasses launching after Heatherette (the mineral one is already at Nordie's so it doesn't count). Just looking at it looks very interesting, but dangerous because all of the pigments are must-haves as well as 2 or 3 of the shadows. I love blues too and despise anyone who says that all blue shadow is trashy...

 

[Trista]

Too late to edit the last post...but the Naughty Nauticals launches on May 1st (day before my birthday, I am a VERY lucky girl), and the three-parter launches in late May according to Specktra.

 

[Kate_Moore]

I'm really looking after the Naughty Nauticals collection! Lisa Cant looks uber pretty with that on... Which will be your picks?

And oh, please, some help here!:
Can anyone tell me a good Cremestick liner in red? Similar to Red Enriched (LTD edition), I want to apply it with Russian Red if that makes sense...

 

[Suburban Snob]

To be honest, none of the upcoming collections has interested me yet! I usually like the winter releases more than summer as I am a palette lover.
