Hey ladies, I am trying to figure out which eyeshadow color to order from Sephora. I went to look at the place in town that sells it but they don't have the selection like Sephora does. I am looking for a white that isn't matte but has a shimmer to it. I can't tell online and I didn't know if any of ya'll used a white eyeshadow from BE.

thanks

I LOVE celestine. It is kind of an irridescent light gray or ivory color and I use it wet if I am going out at night or with dark eyeliner for a daytime look.

If they have it, go for Winter White.

Chenille is a good color too if they have it (and I agree Sephora is better!).

Rose Gossamer: Like it, love it, or skip it?

I havent used that yet but I've thought about it! I do however really like the gossamer lip gloss. It's pearly white in the tube but it goes on clear and shiny on the lips! It is also great over other colors of lip gloss and lip sticks.

Wish I had it! Gossamer is fun but pink gossamer plus that amazing brush must be heaven.

That's a good deal, BM rarely ever goes on sale! Unfortch I just ordered the tinted mineral veil from Nordies b/c I had a gift card. I'm curious how it's going to look. Sometimes MV looks a little pale on me so we shall see.

I like the tinted, but I have heard from some that they think it makes your face look orangeish. I don't have that problem with it -- I think it maintains the foundation color underneath better.

Ok, what is the best way to take your BE on travel? I am going on a cruise in a couple weeks and don't want to end up with all the makeup above the sifter.

Thankfully no flying to get the port, we're leaving out of Baltimore.

I'd like to know the answer to that question as well because what you described is exactly what happens.

OtterXO · #13 10-30-2007, 11:18 AM

I've found that it's pretty easy to get it back below the sifter. Just kind of shake it horizontally for a minute or so and it goes back in as easily as it came out.

It is pretty easy to get the makeup back below the sifter if you shake it or pull the sifter up and dump the excess into the jar.

If you don't want to mess with that though, I put a couple of the cotton pads that are normally used for my toner or nail polish remover above the sifter and close the lid. If you put around 2 in the bigger jars (like the foundation and mineral veil, it works pretty well because there isn't any free room for anything to jiggle. I think 1 would work for the smaller jars like glee/warmth.

Thank you! I can't believe I didn't think of cotton balls.
