For reference, I’m an NC35.

Flight attendants, prepare the cabin for lavender. The ship will be arriving at Planet Purple in 3-2-1…

      Hi Mignon,

      Ah, it’s so great to see that kind of enthusiasm? Want to know something really cool? The lipglosses have a lavender scent!

    That French Touch lipstick will be mine!!

    That last photo with Prince made me laugh out loud, brilliant! 😀 Which reminds me I’ve been meaning to watch Purple Rain for months now and listen to more Prince stuff than the only 2 songs I know..

      Oh gosh! I remember watching that movie at a sleepover when I was eight. I have no idea what my friend’s mom was thinking letting a bunch of elementary school girls watch that movie (she was known as the “cool” mom).

        Hah, I’m pretty sure my crazy snake phobia comes from watching Labyrinth at my friend’s house when I was way too young to stare at DB wearing tight tights and throwing snakes at teenagers..
        Is the film any good?? (random fact, the boy I was seeing over the summer once told me he got so blown away by When Doves Cry the first time he heard it, that he couldn’t sleep for hours after that hah)

        Also, I thought of you this afternoon. Had to stop by the shop on my way home to get Nutella, I couldn’t get rid of the craving.

    Ultra Lavande looks awesome. That’s the one on the far right of the first swatches, right? Yeah, that’s awesome. I’d wear that in a second.

      Hey Mela,

      The potted shadows are less like creams and more like dense, semi-dry glitters. Are you looking for something along the lines of a MAC Paint Pot?

    I was wondering if you might know or could take an educated guess now that you’ve done the swatching and playing…what color or colors is the model wearing on her lips in the promo pic? I thought it might be the Berry Rose or one of the lippies with one of the glosses on top but that was just my wild guess. What do you think?

      I didn’t realize there were different images on the displays too, sorry!
      I meant the original image that was released of the brunette with a silky lavender shirt with a bow at the neck.

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
