Oh no - I missed your pic again!

There's a pic on my profile of me with Light on but it was last summer when I had a slight tan. Normally I use Fairly Light (which is lighter - weird naming uh?).

What do the lipsticks feel like? I never get on v well with lipstick.

cyb · 25/09/2011 14:34

Its a tingly buxom gloss one so my lips are inflating as we speak- not unpleasant though, and great pigment

I'm quite excited as I have just bought the starter kit- thanks for the link!

I had some mineral make-up a while back in the summer, and it kept the sweaty sheen off my face! Hopefully it will make me look like Keira Knightly in that Chanel ad.

Now, which products will make me grow 5 inches and lose 4 stone?

I've had my face done a couple of times and both times looked like one of those silver statues that come to life you see in Barcelona etc

meltedchocolate · 25/09/2011 17:54

I have ordered tester kit to try as well aftter reading this. Was eyeing this stuff up a few months ago. Don't know what it can do for me though. I have spider veins ALL over my face (not helped by my chocolate eating in large quantities I am sure Blush) I'm hoping for a miricle, I am expecting a tinted talc effect :o

cyb · 25/09/2011 17:58

ggirl I was expecting that too, I get that with most 'luminating' potions but this isnt like that

I have primer and a new lipstick which is a lipstick-gloss. I don't like glosses usually but it's lovely, lasts ages and is very moisturising. Colour is beautiful.

AmazingDisgrace · 26/09/2011 14:05

What shade foundation did you get Cyb? I got light and it makes me look like a ghost... plus it highlighted every single pore and line

OhThisIsJustGrape · 26/09/2011 14:46

I've just ordered a trial kit from Look Fantastic, have terrible skin - open pores, acne scars and v oily so I need a miracle really. Currently my make up looks good for the first couple of hours then gets shiny and cakes where I've overdosed the polyfiller concealer.

Will report back once it's arrived and I've tried it.

OhThisIsJustGrape · 26/09/2011 14:47

Oh, I ordered the primer too Grin

cyb · 26/09/2011 16:27

Amazing I got a kit with fairly light and light in. I felt fairly a smidge pale for me so warmed it up with warmth stuff

On Qvc they say you can go a shade up and it wont kill you

Ohthisisjustgrtape You've described my skin to a tee.

I have worn Bare Ess since 7.15 this morning and it honestly looks as fresh as when I put it on, not patchy, cakey and my skin SHOCK HORREURS is not shiney

Wish I coudl get application done a bit more quickly but hey ho that will come

Do any of you have wrinkles?! Wouldn't the powder just sort of cake around them and make you look more wrinkly?

cyb · 26/09/2011 22:21

But it isnt a powder its creamier than that when it goes on

OP posts:
malinkey · 27/09/2011 08:27

Right, I'm going to go and get myself 'done' then and see what it does to my wrinkly little eyes.
