^That's one of the many nice things about BM--it lasts a very long time! You generally only need to use a little bit at a time.

It is a bummer, though, if you spill it. I wish more of the eye colors came with the little "sifter" lid, because I've accidently knocked a couple over (once, all over my jeans!!).

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.

Yay! I think I'm going to try it out. I really wanted a kabuki retractable to carry on the go and since it comes with the set, I may just have to try it out!

ThetaPrincess - thanks for the tip on gossamer lip gloss. I will totally try it

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.

OleMissGlitter · #13 10-10-2007, 03:07 PM

Thanks Ladies I'm going to a couple of new eye shades next week!

I like the tinted mineral veil a lot and so does my husband (atleast on me!). If you use too much it will make your skin look orange. I dont use a lot so even on my fair skin it looks good. I'm not sure about how it may look on those that are more fair than me though.

I've visiting San Fran next week to see a relative... coincidently the Mother Ship of Bare Minerals and I will most definitely be stopping by one of their shops.

I hoping they have the Rose Gossamer duo because it's on my list. While I'm there I may experiment with eye colors....

Someone stop me... I'm out of control
