Love to hear how you like the UD 24/7 Midnight Cowboy shadow pencil! I want to make a major trip to where they have a Sephora and I can try it before I buy it. Can you do a nice line with it say vs a dark liner or put a line of it over your dark liner?

Do you not LOVE the UD Naked palette? I was one of the lucky ones that got it on the first release from UD direct. Of course all my fav colors in it are ONLY found it that one palette. Hoping someday they will release many of them in singles. Wish also UD would get into a replaceable pallet such as Pro MAC has and all of the new TARTE pallets are with the magnet on the bottom of every box of shadow with corresponding magnet on the pallets. Does not seem to be a direction the UD is interested in – that being customizable and being GREEN in product packaging. But I still adore UD and always look at most all of their products – tossing many of my own when I pull in new UD (and TARTE) ones (esp. eye color products from UD)

Great picture!

Haul: Korres blushes in Orange, Purple & Coral, Estee Lauder Pure Color lipstick in Tiramisu and Shadowstick Duo in Pink Teal (your swatches were too gorgeous to resist!).
