The Feather Light has a bit of a sheen, not quite a sparkle like a Gossamer, but just a sheer glow. I prefer Clear Radiance to get that effect over the FL myself. I did mix an eyeshadow sized FLMV into my bucket of Tinted MV to use it up and like that effect.


Kits, kits, kits! I just ordered the Guilty Pleasures (9 total, but they are smaller than the normal shadow pots) and the Liner Quad IV (this is in the iQuad format, a little messy but a great way to try out colors. I highly recommend the following (I have highlighted cocoa/caramel hair, light/medium skin tone and dark brown eyes, if that helps any). I think all of the items in these kits are full sized.

Blendable Eye Camouflage
Pure Moxie kit (Great value!)
Get Started Eyes

I have all of those kits except Guilty Pleasures. I did however purchase the Teamed Up Earth Tones eyeshadow kit when i was at Sephora last weekend and I love it! I go back and forth between that set and my shimmer cubes from the body shop every other day

I love the Get Started Eye Kit. The colors are neutral, but they make my eyes really pop. I love them.

I got the Heavenly Face Brush the other day in a kit. It's SO much nicer than the All-Over Face Brush. I think I might need to order another one in case I lose the first one!

I got the Luminous Skin Collection and the Soft Focus Face Brush. Love love love it!

I am also loving the Well-Rested.

One thing I'm not diggin' is the BE regular compact. A day or so in my purse and the minerals all come on the top of the sifter and when I open the clear cover, a cloud of mineral dust gets in the air and it looks like a small explosion just came out of my compact. I'm don't even overfill the darn thing so I'm not sure why it does that. I'm thinking of ditching the compact ...

t*p, I love the Soft Focus face brush. I use it for almost everything. It's great on those days when you only have time for a quick buff of foundation and a radiance or all over face color. Soft enough to sweep over eyelids and gives a great wash of color on the face.

I had a similar experience when I went to open it after it had been jostled in my purse all day. I inhaled a cloud of mineral dust, sneezed and managed to send the compact flying. It died a quiet death

it's good to know i'm not alone in this one... 'cause it drives me nuts

AOIIAlum & ThetaPrincess --- YAY for the soft focus brush.

Someone needs to keep me AWAY from the BE boutique here... 'cause they make me buy stuff I didn't intend on buying but I still end up loving it

They are good at doing that to me too! If you are going there "often" make sure you get their little coupon from the store and have them stamp it each time you are there. After so many purchases you get like a 20% discount or something free I think (my purse is in the other room so i cant look to be sure sorry).
