Guerlain Greta Le Rouge G de Guerlain Lipstick ($45.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a rich, intense shade of blue-based red. Where Geisha has an orange tone to it, Greta is its counterpart--blue-based. Even though I'm warm-toned, I always find...

Chanel Rouge Allure Laques ($32.00) are one of my new favorite lip products. I loved the formula so much I had to own every single shade--luckily, there are only eight at the moment--because they're that amazing. The formula is long-wearing without being drying,...
Do you buy backups of beauty products? Why/why not? What have you bought?
.
I do on occasion, but very rarely. I have several backups of MAC Mari-Sheeno lipstick, one of MAC Gold Dusk pigment, and two MAC Rye eyeshadows.

Chanel Mandarin Rouge Allure Laque
Chanel Mandarin Rouge Allure Laque ($32.00) is the last shade in our seven days of Chanel Rouge Allure Laque feature.
Mandarin is a deep, reddish coral. It's very, very deep -- it's not exactly the summer coral that comes to mind when I'm thinking about coral lip...

Lip balm, MAC Mari-sheeno Lipstick, Chanel Dragon Rouge Allure Laque... I have lots of HG status products, but none I feel I couldn't replace.

I would love to round-up as many MAC swatches as we can all muster! Together, I am sure we can get a pretty comprehensive swatch gallery going -- so I invite you to share yours! You can link to your swatches, or you can e-mail them to me and I'll put them up. All...

Georgia is best used as a sheer, all-over powder on light to...
Estee Lauder's Pure White Linen Pink Coral ($72.00 for 3.4 oz.) is the newest addition to the White Linen perfume franchise. Pure White Linen emerged originally, and then a derivation thereof in Pure White Linen Light Breeze. In June, Pure White Linen Pink Coral joined the family.
Chanel Phoenix Rouge Allure Laque ($32.00) is the sixth shade to lust after in our seven days of Chanel Rouge Allure Laque feature.
Phoenix is a medium bright pink. It's not really cool-toned, but it's not warm, either (although, I've rarely met a pink I'd really classify as warm, but I digress!). ...
How often do you clean out your stash? Every month? Every year?

Guerlain Geisha Le Rouge G de Guerlain Lipstick
Guerlain Geisha Le Rouge G de Guerlain Lipstick ($45.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a beautiful shade of red with just a tinge of orange. It has a soft, glistening sheen with a very subtle mix of coppery shimmer that you can't even feel--it's that fine. It...
MAC Style Black included two pieces of limited edition skincare -- the ever-raved about Volcanic Ash Exfoliator and previously-mentioned-but-finally-released Volcanic Ash Thermal Mask.
I've been a big supporter of MAC's Volcanic Ash Exfoliator since it released. I...
Three years ago, on October 3rd, 2006, the first post went live on Temptalia. In fact, 230 looks were posted on October 3rd--they span about a year's worth of looks. Temptalia began as an archive for all of the makeup looks I was already...
Chanel Santal Rouge Allure Laque ($32.00) is the fifth entry to drool over in our seven days of Chanel Rouge Allure Laque feature.
Santal is a subdued peachy-coral. It has just a little bit of a coral-tone to it, but otherwise it is quite peachy. There's almost a hint of pink, but yet there's...
What eyeliners work on your waterline? Any?
.
I personally don't find that any liner truly lasts for hours on my waterline, though some last longer than others. UD, MUFE, and MAC Feline all last decently on my waterline!

October 1st marks the start of Breast Cancer Awareness month, and many brands participate by creating or marketing certain products as Pink products. Our motto at Temptalia is: if you Need Pink, why not Shop Pink while you're at it?
Shop Pink when there's something you need/want, but...
