I'm going to check it out next weekend because they're having the launch thing. I definitely want to get the blue or purple dual eyeliner thing, and I want to try the Sock Hop lipglass (although I doubt I'll get it since I barely use my l/gs).
I want to try the pink eyeshadow trio... I'll buy it if I love it enough.
And I definitely want to try another beauty powder blush.

Not gonna lie, it looks pretty awesome and very Heatherette. I'm more into simple shades (I'm kinda boring when it comes to makeup) so I probably won't be buying any, buuut I'd love to check it out! Is it available already?

^Yup, since the 20th.

It's out in Pro stores, I think. Atleast it was at my store last Thursday. For counters, I think it's only coming out sometime this week.

The pink trio is so girly, but I don't know... Pink? On me, I wouldn't really know how to apply it. I think I would look like I would have a pink eye.

I think I want the purple/lilac dual liner, the black/turquoise is also very pretty, but I just got a black liner, I should have bought that instead.

So how are the beauty powder blushes?

Question - I've bought the "random" (I know they aren't random but whatever LOL) other powders in the past...back when I didn't really wear that much music, but how do you use powders if you wear liquid foundation?

I assume you put it on afterwards, but I find sometimes the powder gets stuck or doesn't blend...or gets really concentrated so you can't fix it. I totally stopped wearing bronzer in the last year or so because of this, but also, the foundation does bronzing itself anyway (the shade I use).

Otherwise, I wanted to get that Heatherette one! They aren't really my colors, I usually just wear gold tones and bobbi brown neutrals.

^Maybe because your foundation is splotchy to begin with. I don't have that problem with my powder. Yeah you use powder afterwards. When I wear liquid foundation, it goes
foundation -> concealer -> Studio Fix powder -> blush -> highlighter

You're supposed to use powder regardless of whether or not you use liquid foundation to set it. But I think you knew that already lol.

^ isn't the Studio Fix powder a foundation powder?

oh, and how do you like the powder foundation vs. liquid? cause I'm thinking of trying the studio fix foundation, but I've never used a powder one before.

Shanti · Posted: Sun Apr 06, 2008 4:46 pm Post subject:

Yeah, the Studio Fix is basically powder foundation, but the MA told me that you use it over the liquid foundation if you want more coverage.

The powder foundation's coverage is pretty sheer, more sheer than the liquid, I find. But I like their powder formula a lot better. The liquid one makes me break out. I use both together when I need the extra coverage though.
So I say if you only want to buy one or the other, get the powder.

i used to use the studio fix just by itself, but its very matte and i wanted more of a glowy look so i bought the liquid one, i just dust on the studio fix with a blush brush on my t-zone and chin to set my foundation.
