- Name: Macaddict
- Last beauty-related purchase:
Too many and not enough yet (I have a long list)!… ENVY ME exotic eye decals (5 sets) in black/white zebra, pink/black zebra, 2 x camouflage, 1 leopard!!! Can’t wait to try them (but not at work). I used to think that they would look tacky but then I watch a video demo on the Sephora website done by a pro MA on a model and I changed my mind! Awesome results and really easy application (or so it looks) and it lasts all day.
Also, Chanel LE smokey eyes 2 individual palettes in platine (white with silver glitter) and black star (a dark grey-black with silver glitter). Both are way more pigmented than the Chanel quad for smoky eyes! They were the last 2 at the store so I had to have them although I have lots of black e/s already!!! (Sometimes I think that they say that “it’s the last one in stock” just to pressure people/suckers like me to buy now… And it works with me everytime!LOL.
Also, Guerlain 2 brush mascara 360 degrees lashes in both violet and blue (couldn’t resist…) and Lorac publicity stunt lashes (3-day long mascara/tint) in black.
- What eye product last caught your eye:
All of the above and…All the glitter liners from MAC (except Raven cuz I have already), the YSL blue quad, Givenchy’s Phenomen’eyes.
- Best product you’ve tried in the past 2 weeks:
Well, the Chanel e/s. I haven’t tried the mascaras yet or the e/s decals…The Tempting e/s quad from MAC’s CoC collection, which I said that I would not buy because I already have Next to Nothing, and Bitter (which I thought was almost identical,but is not), and so I fell in love with that particular color (Sharp). Lately, I have been buying more eye products than anything else.
Friday, September 26, 2008
