i’m digging the black honey pencil – it’s a matte plum – right now when i smudge out a pencil on my lid for smoky eye it’s shimmery. i love my UD 24/7 pencil in rockstar (shimmery plum) but when i want to do a matte smoky eye this may do the trick!

Looks great
I had a great time on my trip to Antwerp yesterday.
Haul:
- cherry lipliner
- ladybug ls
- modesty ls
- rubenesque pp
- blacktrack fl
- lip brush and liner brush

Today I was an extra for a new Dutch film, de storm (you can find it on imdb) from oscar-nominated director Ben Sombogaart. I had so much fun, even though I had no make-up, my hair was messed up and I was up to my waist in ice-cold water. Lol.

This collection just seems so *fall* to me. I love the names of the eyeshadows too. You pulled this look off very welll, and did another great detailed post!

The standouts for me are the mascara (you know I’m into “berry” mascaras this fall, and still haven’t actually GOTTEN one, LOL. This one might be the most budget friendly, yay.) and I love the blackberry lipgloss! But I wonder how similar it is to mac’s jampacked.

Hi Karen, I'm looking for an eye cream actually, so I may try to get one from Clinique. I really love the Bloom but I don't know if Blackberry is too dark for me. The ones from last year were nice. Dao´s last blog post..The Wonderful Brown Eyeliners: Part Two

Hi Lea,

I have both the regular, long-handled MAC brushes and the brush sets from past holiday collections, and in my experience the regular brushes perform better. The bristles are softer, more dense and they just work better. I wanted to try the holiday ones from this to see if they improved the quality of the brushes in the brush sets, but they are pretty much the same as they were last year. Save your $ for the regular MAC brushes!
