Not a major fan of Prescriptives outside of their foundations and powders. That Calyx perfume REALLY gets on my nerves because pretty much EVERY woman of color I know wears it and it always makes me
queasy(sp).

Tracey you sound a little bitter. Why do you have to say, “pretty much EVERY woman of color I know wears it.” Just say you don’t like it.

Veronica- Me, bitter? Not at all. I too am a woman of color and the (EVERY woman of color “I” know wears it) comment is representative of some of my closest friends and coworkers who are women of color who LOVE that particular perfume. If you were offended by what you read, I certainly apologize. It’s still my contention that it makes me queazy!

I’m such a sucker for packaging and I love the look of this line for summer. I think I’m going to have to get at least one lipstick. I was just perusing their site…how ironic. I also want to create a custom lip gloss.

It reminds me of glow in the dark sticks and science class, and even though I love both I just think the packaging is a little too little kid like especially with the scribbling.

I unloaded this at work the other night, the colors are all soo pretty with smooth pigmented payoff! The glosses almost have this green apple scent to them, lipsticks I did not notice a scent at all. But yeah the lippies, glosses, and some of the eyeshadows are limited edition. I think the packaging is cute, it’s just the same as the regular packaging now just a different color

I used to wear Calyx many years ago and still love it! Anyway, I tried the “sheer” version and I found no difference with the regular one whatsoever!
