Favorite metallic liner? Most of mine are matte, but I do have Tarina Tarantino’s Hyperliner in Cute Robot, which reflects as metallic in most lighting.
Favorite metallic lip product? The only metallic lip color I have is Milani’s Lip Flash in Hot Flash, which I love. I keep meaning to try Kat Von D’s Foiled Love collection, though.
lipstick in Adora is just absolutely amazing. I don’t know if the formula is different from the Painted Love lipstick (I have the Foiled Love version), but I love the look just the same. It’s a bit dry but there’s just nothing like it. Christine reviewed the Painted Love version here http://www.temptalia.com/kat-von-d-adora-painted-love-lipstick-review-photos-swatches !

Favourite metallic eyeliner? I use MUFE Aqua Cream in 13 as an eyeliner all the time if that counts 🙂
Favourite metallic lip product? Not a big fan of metallic lips, as a result I hardly own anything of that nature. I guess the closest thing I have would be MAC’s Creme de Femme lipstick, but it hardly gets any love.
Your skin tone/coloring: Fair with pink undertones & freckles.
Favorite metallic eyeshadow? At the moment, it’s Te Amo by Fyrinnae but I also love the look of UDPP in Sin as a cream metallic and also Ricky’s NYC brand Mattese in Undress (similar to UD Sin but much better texture).
