I am a bad girl...

[SusieQ]

I prefer UDPP (Urban Decay Primer Potion) as an eyelid primer over drugstore and over Chanel or other high end.  I've tested many, too!  I've been buying it for years.

2nd the UDPP.  It's bulletproof.

I am tempted, milla.   But, speaking of bad girl...hmmm...do you have room?  I really don't need anything else but I did go visit my local CCO and found that they started selling Smashbox.  Soooo....I had to buy it. Really, I did.

•Waterproof powder eye shadow palette #2 with brush includes 0.04-oz Champagne eye shadow, 0.04-oz Matte Vanilla eye shadow, 0.04-oz Golden Khaki eye shadow, 0.04-oz Shimmering Bronze eye shadow, 0.04-oz Matte Chocolate Brown eye shadow
•0.094-oz waterproof shadow liner to go in Shimmering Ivy, an emerald with gold shimmer

•0.32-oz Pro Second Skin longwear concealer in choice of Fair, Light, Medium, or Dark

Since it was at the CCO, it was 40%.

If you look on the Urban Decay web site, they are selling the "vintage" genie bottle for only $9.  (That is because they finally listened to their fans and started putting it in a tube instead.)  I'm sure you all know how to get the most out of that ridiculous packaging and that makes it an excellent deal -- far better than ACW, even.

I stand by Paula Dorf's primer if you do not have the oily lids condition.

SusieQ - I love Smashbox, especially the glosses, primers, and brushes.  You got a lovely haul at your CCO.  I'm trying not to be too jealous that you have one of those!

More often than not, I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not.

I think it would be fabulous!

You could go to a department store and ask for a demonstration and then make up your mind.

Hollow laugh.

Want to guess if Bobbi Brown is sold in Finland?

Right. It´s not.


So, let´s just agree it is the most unsuitable pallette for me. Limited edition...nudes...must contain drool...

not necessarily...

Loving this as an e/s primer: Bare Escentuals Prime Time Foundation Primer (not the eye primer).

It's perfect under Tough as Taupe. Shadow glides on, and there is absolutely no creasing.

@SusieQ: Where is that CCO?

Listy, what a great PSA.  Yep, I know how to get the most out of the genie bottle; a bottle lasts me over a year

Embarcadero 2. :-)  The only thing is that you have to work in the area and your HR must contact them and issue you an invite. I don't know why because there are two CCOs at the Gilroy Outlets and you don't need an invite.  I love the ones in Gilroy because you have the EL and Lancome. 

But, here's the weird part. Once or twice a year, the Embarcadero have a sidewalk sale and EL CCO is out there handing out invites. It's crazy.  If you don't head out to Gilroy, the next time they have a sidewalk sale here, I'll let you know.

Well, this palette and the eyelash curlers were a 'aha' moment for me. up until now, eyeshadow=colour, but now I realise that the  future of eye make up for me is neutral eyeshadow that 'lifts' the eye, eyelash curlers and a decent mascara. It does make a difference!

I think this is, in essence, what a lot of us are finding these days.  Welcome to the club!

Thank you, SusieQ! I'd forgotten about the Gilroy Outlets. Must head there again, soon. The CCO must be exclusive  ! If you hear of another sidewalk sale, please do let me know.

I will, my friend.

I also 2nd Too Faced's eye shadow primer(called Shadow Insurance).I have oily lids and it works very well for me.
Makin',I am also jealous of those that have CCO's,as we do not here either.If they open one in Ohio or Kentucky,though,we must meet up somewhere,have lunch and make a day of it!!

[makinalist]

Absolutely, Angelcat!
