Your skin tone/coloring: Porcelain
Favorite green eyeshadow? Urban Decay Mildew
Favorite red lip color? Besame Noir Red and MAC Sin
Favorite blush formula? Blackbird Cosmetics, who is now unfortunately closed. Urban Decay Afterglow.
Oooh, as in never to return? Just when I was making a wishlist. What happens to their overstock? Only a few were unavailable, when I last looked. Wanted blueberry pookie, despite the kawaii name. It looked amazing.
I thought so? Well she said she was taking break indefinitely, but that was in February, and now the website is back up so she might be back?
Also Blueberry Pookie is probably my favorite blush of all time 🙂
Not surprised. S.t. I waffle so much. Better strike while the iron is still hot.
Your skin tone/coloring: light to medium with yellow undertones, dark brown eyes, black hair
Favorite green eyeshadow? the light mossy green in Wet n Wild Comfort Zone palette or MAC Jealousy Wakes for a good emerald green
Favorite red lip color? MAC Cult of Cherry lipglass or Kat Von D Adora lipstick
Favorite blush formula? I’m always a fan of TheBalm’s cheek products!
Your skin tone/coloring: NW45
Favorite green eyeshadow? peacock from make up for ever
Favorite red lip color? cherry blossom from coloured raine and ruby woo from mac
Favorite blush formula? mac prolongwear and Illamasqua
Your skin tone/coloring: fair, cool
Favorite green eyeshadow? probably Inglot 419 or MAC Humid or (gosh, there are lots of them)
Favorite red lip color? right now, it’s a toss-up between Smashbox Be Legendary and UD Mrs. Mia Wallace
Favorite blush formula? MAC Mineralize blushes (they have such a gorgeous sheen), followed by MAC Sheertone Shimmer (ditto on the sheen). I’m trying to stop myself buying Becca’s Luminous Blush in either Foxglove or Camellia – or both! They are so beautiful and have that finish I just love but I honestly don’t need or almost even want more blushes (I just bought MAC Rhubarb two days ago!)
Your skin tone/coloring: Light-to-medium with periodic red flushing
Favorite green eyeshadow? The green in the Chanel Empreinte du Desert eyeshadow quad
Favorite red lip color? Bobbi Brown Luxe Lipstick in Imperial Red and Parisian Red
Favorite blush formula? Tom Ford original formula
Skin tone: medium warm NC30
Favorite green eyeshadow: I love both Vinyl and Misfit from Kat Von D’s Mi Vida Loca Remix palette. Even though Hyperballad is more of a teal color, when it’s used to deepen Misfit, the color is just stunning.
Favorite reds: Bite Beauty Gazpacho, Bite Beauty 003 (Chilly Pepper), and Guerlain’s LE 2016 Christmas red in Rouge Saphir.
Favorite blush formulas: Chanel, the original Tom Ford, NARS, and MAC
Your skin tone/coloring: MAC NC23, with prominent warm/yellow undertones. Recently found out my eyes have some green in them! so light brown with some green eyes, warm brown hair!
Favorite green eyeshadow?: I own 12 green eye shadows. And they’re all my favourites aahhh. I really like Sephora Brand Hidden treasure, MAC humid, MAC sumptuous olive, Colourpop Hammered. the list goes on!
Favorite red lip color? My holy grail red lipsticks are: Colourpop Lip pencil in bossy all over the lips to line and fill in, and then colourpop’s ultra satin in London Fog ontop! That combo lasts 9 hours on me! My other holy grail red is Kat Von D’s Studded kiss in Hellbent!
Favorite blush formula?: QUO makes some of my all time favourite blushes, bronzers and highlights!! they’re so smooth and silky and blend out SO easily!! Close second is Clinique Cheek pops!
Your skin tone/coloring: Black hair, blue/ grey eyes, fair skin
Favorite green eyeshadow? Soooo hard to pick! Mac Swimming and Bio Green are longtime favourites, as is YSL Slate Green (RIP), and Nars Night Porter for a smoky look…
Favorite red lip color? This is even harder than the green eyeshadow! Probably Rouge d’Armani 400 (in any formula), because it’s just such a perfectly balanced statement red. But Guerlain Garconne and Genna are really close!
Favorite blush formula? Going simply in terms of formula, rather than colour range (which Nars wins by a mile, IMO), Charlotte Tilbury Swish & Pop. And although I was never a fan of cream blushes, I’ve really fallen for Rituelle de Fille’s formula.
Your skin tone/coloring:
Light/medium
Favorite green eyeshadow?
The only green eye shadow I have ever liked is the green in Chanel’s Empreinte du Desert quad. I ♥ that one.
Favorite red lip color?
Hmmmm…. I like the Tom Ford lip color in Tony (72). But I will say, every time I try on Bite’s lip pencil in Pomegranate, I just love it. I’ve tried it on over and over, and enjoy it every time. I think it’s time to take the plunge.
Favorite blush formula?
Hmmmm…..I like Tom Ford blush a lot. I just got the Cle de Peau cream to powder, and this might be the new fave. But, you know, when I get a good one from MAC it always come through.
I find it heart-warming that almost any time there’s a “what’s your favourite” questions, the Empreinte du Desert quad gets at least one mention; not only did you mention it, but I see that Nancy T did also!
And if it weren’t for you, and Nancy and Tammy I never would have become part of the sorority!
Your skin tone/coloring: Deep/Dark NW50
Favorite green eyeshadow? Colour Pop Telepathy
Favorite red lip color? Colour Pop Trust Me
Favorite blush formula? Matte!
Your skintone/ coloring: Medium w/olive undertones MAC NC37 or Tarte Medium Honey, deep brunette, blue-green eyes w/ gold flecks.
Favorite green eyeshadow: That green in Chanel Empriente du Desert! And also ColourPop’s pressed formula in Game Changer, Up And Up, and Team Captain (best matte dark green I’ve ever had).
Favorite red lip color: MAC Maria Moretti, VG I, and Como La Flor! Love my MAC reds! Not sure whether one of my all-time favorite UD shades is considered a “red”, but if so, the now dc’d Catfight!
Favorite blush formula: UD Afterglow formula is truly lovely! Especially Rapture!
Rapture is the best!
Your skin tone/coloring: Fair/light with neutral undertones
Favorite green eyeshadow? Probably Moss from the KVD MetalMatte Palette (I don’t own a lot of greens)
Favorite red lip color? UD Vice Lipstick in Mrs. Mia Wallace!
Favorite blush formula? Hmmm, probably CoverGirl Classic Color Blush
Skintone / coloring: light, NC 20
Favorite green eyeshadow: Probably MAC Sumptuous Olive or Loreal Infallible Golden Sage
Favorite red lip: does Lipstick Queen Jean Queen or MAC Viva Glam VI count? Otherwise I’m not a fan of red lips!
Favorite blush formula: Clinique Cheek Pops is my favorite blush formula. Sheer but buildable. Long lasting. Smooth formula. Just love how it feels on the skin. I prefer powder formulas in general but the Cheek Pops are more unique than that. They are almost a cream to powder blush hybrid. Love it!
Skin coloring medium with olive undertones??
I don’t like green eyeshadow but I do own Estee Lauder / Beckham Charred Green.
I am not crazy about red lipstick unless it is very sheer. I don’t know which ones are my favorite but I do own a few that are sheer.
Favorite Powder Blush Formula for right now 1st place Burberry, 2nd Chanel and maybe 3rd Tom Ford.
Favorite Cream Blush right now: Rouge Bunny Rouge, La Prairie Cellular Cream blush in Lotus Glow & Peach Glow
Your skin tone/coloring: Very fair with neutral undertones; magenta/red hair; hazel/green eyes.
Favorite green eyeshadow? I don’t have a single standout favorite. KVD Moss and Watt (Metal Matte Palette); SauceBox Jade; NARS Night Porter; MAC Jealousy Wakes, Sumptuous Olive, and Savant (Bellgreen’s Palette); UD Dragon, C-Note, and Thrash; UD Moondust in Lightyear; ColourPop Hammered and Fizz; Notoriously Morbid Scotland the Brave; Medusa’s Make-up Eye Dust in Wasabe.
Favorite red lip color? I LOVE red lips. Lately I’ve been really into Too Faced La Matte in Rebel Heart. Other favorites are MAC Von Teese; MAC La Vie En Rouge; UD Mrs. Mia Wallace, 69, and F-Bomb; Jeffree Star Velour Liquid Lipstick in Redrum; Sonia Kashuk Knock Out Beauty Matte Lipstick in Power Punch; Max Factor Creme Rouge 537.
Favorite blush formula? Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush works the best for my oily skin. UD Afterglow, Too Faced Love Flush, Clinique Cheek Pop, The Balm In-Stain, Milani Rose Powder Blush, and Sleek are all big winners for me, too.
Your skin tone/coloring: Light with neutral undertone, dark brown, sometimes black hair, greyish green eyes, the colour really depends on the light, and the eyeshadow, but also my clothes.
Favorite green eyeshadow? I have many greens, so it’s hard to pick one, maybe MAC Sprout discontinued ages ago, I like Lucky Green and Sumteous Olive a lot as well, both from MAC
Favorite red lip color? UD F-Bomb
Favorite blush formula? Powders either with a little shine or matte
Haven’t found any green that won’t make me look bruised. Love Estee Lauder Pure Envy liquid in Quiet Riot. Also, Becca’s blush formula just looks so natural on me.
Skin tone: porcelain with pink undertones
Favourite green eyeshadow: Oh my – this is SO hard because I have a million green eye shadows that I routinely love, but here goes: For olives – Spectacular from bareMinerals the Scenic Route and my Dior 3 Colours Khaki; sage green from Stila in the Garden; Editor’s Pick (bareminerals) and the Dior Jardin palette; YSL’s Slate green – I could go on forever!
Favourite red lip: Still enjoying Red Terra from Clarins Joli Rouge collection and Maybelline’s Red Revival.
Favourite blush: Enjoying the Becca Jacklyn Hill palette – especially the peachy blush.
Prob NW20. Green is my favorite color. Many faves, so let’s think brands…KVD and Viseart bijoux. Mufe would join them, if they’d ever put a green in a palette. Haven’t ordered a trio with green yet, but I KNOW they’d be fab. I’d usually choose a fair green over a decent blue any day. Prob have >20 green liners and at least five green mascara. Flashback to Aziza clinging vine mascara (70s) and a Shiseido shadow trio (80s?) that really channeled today’s CdeP. Red lips? Don’t go there. All too prominent in stash. You can extrapolate exponentially. Nars and Besame and bite…note, because I haven’t indulged in rouge g. Blush: Nars or mufe. As long as it isn’t pink coral. Mufe ash plum is a good offbeat contour/blush, when warm just won’t do.
Your skin tone/coloring: Fair/Neutral
Favorite green eyeshadow? I don’t wear green very often, but I love MAC “Steamy” eyeshadow.
Favorite red lip color? Chanel “Incandescent.” It’s not longer available but I always get compliments when I wear it.
Favorite blush formula? Powder. I find cream blush doesn’t last as long and it’s difficult to get it precise.
Your skin tone/coloring: V fair/cool
Favorite green eyeshadow? Armani in the singles or Chantecaille Emeral.
Favorite red lip color? CdP Radiant Liquid in Lempicka #18
Favorite blush formula? Cream blushes; my absolute favorite is a DC’d shade from Chantecaille called water blushes. Right now I’m enjoying the new Cle de Peau cream to powders and the Tom Ford cream duos.
Your skin tone/coloring: light to medium with warm undertones – about MAC NC 23ish
Favorite green eyeshadows? MAC Silver Sun and the green in Chanel Empreinte du Desert
Favorite red lip color? MAC Viva Glam Rihanna, MAC Como La Flor
Favorite blush formula? Toss up between Tom Ford and (wait for it) MAC
Your skin tone/coloring: light-medium
Favorite green eyeshadow? I don’t wear a lot of green eyeshadow, but i love Sephora N273 Mermaid Tail. It’s more teal than green but still super pretty
Favorite red lip color? Colourpop Bitchette is my go to red
Favorite blush formula? Benefit boxed powders are my fave. I like the slight shimmer most of them have
Your skin tone/coloring: fair with pink undertones
Favorite green eyeshadow? Urban Decay C-Note
Favorite red lip color? Right now it’s ABH American Doll
Favorite blush formula? NARS
Skin tone: Very pale with cool undertones.

Favorite red lipstick: Elizabeth Arden Red Door Red
Favorite blush formula: Clinique Cheek Pop, Hourglass and Colour Pop.
Your skin tone/ coloring: I have a warm undertone and very fair skin.
Favorite green eyeshadow? : Urban Decay Lounge
Favorite Red Lip Color? : (it’s more of a berry color….) wet n wild berry recognize
Favorite Blush Formula: I love the milani baked blushes <3
Your skin tone/coloring: NC15 w/some redness
Favorite green eyeshadow? MAC Humid
Favorite red lip color? NARS Rita
Favorite blush formula? Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush, or Tarte Amazonian Clay if I want a more matte look
Skin tone and coloring- Light to medium light, the cool side of neutral skin tone, blue/grey eyes and light brown w/blonde highlights hair.
Favorite green eyeshadow: Chanel’s Epitant or any other silverish green shade.
I also like olive shades like MAC’s Sumptuous Olive. The green (Brooklyn) in the ABH Master palette by Mario is the darkest, Jade in the Lorac Pro 2 pulls brown so is easy to wear for me. Two others I wear occasionally are Clover from Lorac Metals and Urban Decay’s Mildew.
Favorite Red Lipstick- None, I have tried reds on but just don’t like the way they look on me. I am very much a MLBB shade wearer.
Favorite blush formula- The original Tom Ford, at least the one that was before the current release. I am very impressed with an Eve Pearl blush I own but have no idea if they are even available any longer. Of blushes that I know can still be had I would say, for formula, Urban Decay Afterglow blushes.
Your skin tone/coloring: NW20
Favorite green eyeshadow? Mac Golden Olive pigment
Favorite red lip color? Mac Frank N Furter
Favorite blush formula? Mac sheertones
Your skin tone/coloring: fair, warm, blue eyes, light brown hair with copper highlights
Favorite green eyeshadow? None; I haven’t found a green I like on me
Favorite red lip color? Still searching for my HG red lip. These days, am going with Guerlain Red Bowtie with Bite Champagne Pearl as a light topper
Favorite blush formula? Chanel Joues Contrast.
Your skin tone/coloring: light and warm
Favorite green eyeshadow? Green is not a color that I wear often, so I can’t say that I have a favorite.
Favorite red lip color? MAC Dubonnet
Favorite blush formula? The cream blush formula that Lancome has released as limited edition a couple times in the past few years, last time was with their 2016 spring collection. It’s just so easy to apply with a flattering finish!
Your skin tone/coloring: Fair/neutral/brunette/blue-green eyes
Favorite green eyeshadow? I love a good olive, but I guess my favorites are Urban Decay Mildew and MAC Sumptuous Olive
Favorite red lip color? NARS Red Square
Favorite blush formula? This is a hard one, too. I am a blush junkie. I love NARS just because I love NARS in general, but Tom Ford original formula (haven’t tried the new ones), Chanel, Urban Decay Afterglow, and Charlotte Tilbury are all great. The Physician’s Formula Murumuru Butter Blushes are very nice, too. And I have a soft spot for the Benefit Box o’ Powders – I use those for blush, eyeshadow, contouring…
Your skin tone/coloring: Fair, cool
Favorite green eyeshadow? Never used one in my life!
Favorite red lip color? Revlon Cherries in the Snow lipstick
Favorite blush formula? Powder!
Your skin tone/coloring: fair, cool/neutral (I’m still not sure)
Favorite green eyeshadow? Buxom’s From Dusk ’til Dawn.
Favorite red lip color? Stila’s liquid lipstick in Beso. It’s what red dreams are made of.
Favorite blush formula? I love Too Faced’s Sweetheart Perfect Flush Blush formula.
Your skin tone/coloring: Caramel/MAC NC50ish.
Favorite green eyeshadow? I’m crazy about green eyeshadow. MAC Humid, ColourPop Shameless, Partridge and Moonwalk are current favourites.
Favorite red lip color? MAC Stunner, ColourPop Bitchette, Milani Matte Confident and NARS Dragon Girl.
Favorite blush formula? My most loved blush is Fashion Fair Pearly Paprika. I also like MAC’s Sheertone Shimmer formula. Shout out to Peachtwist and Breezy.
Your skin tone/coloring: Medium/Tan, dark brown hair and eyes
Favorite green eyeshadow? I don’t know the name ( I depotted it a while ago), but it’s a pretty sparkly moss green shade from The Body Shop – random I know! I love using it on the lid with Mac Soft brown as my transition and a darker brown in the crease.
Favorite red lip color? Maybelline Matte Color Sensational Lipsticks in Siren in Scarlet
I’m so glad that they are keeping this line of lipsticks around and improving the formula.
Favorite blush formula? Nars Powder blushes. I like the natural glow to the cheeks, especially if I’m in a hurry and don’t have time for highlight, etc. Orgasm is my go to! I got the extra large size last year, and it will probably last me for the rest of my life. 🙂
