Do you have a willpower weakness when it comes to a certain kind of makeup? Something that always makes you weak in the knees? I’ve got quite a few, truth be told, and one happens to be shimmery neutrals. They’re like the Nutella of my makeup world; I just can’t get enough!

As soon as I saw pics of what the Make Up For Ever artists did for the models at the Aqua Di Lara and Qiss Qiss shows at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week: Swim — those glistening gold, bronze and brown eyes! — I let out a “WOW!” worthy of double rainbow proportions.

  12. Note to self: Never wear this bra again. Ouch! It’s killing me. On a less random note, my first kiss was when I was 15 with my 17 year old boyfriend. It was his first kiss too so it was super awkward but sweet. 🙂

  14. Wow, I can’t remember my first MUFE product. I think it was either the Camouflage Cream concealer or the HD Primer. I’m hooked now, so I have lots of their stuff… my newest favorite MUFE product is the #5 Aqua Cream for cheeks & lips (the peach one). Even with my oily skin, it holds on like no other cream product ever has :). Love it! 🙂

  25. Sliced up an apple last night for dessert (which appeared to those who don’t know me to be an incredibly virtuous, diet-friendly choice) and proceeded to dump two ginormous tablespoons of Nutella on the side. Consumed same while watching latest tivo’ed “True Blood” episode (Eric..meeYOW!) while cat dozed on my lap. An evening of enchantment!

  32. I’m wearing my black flats that I got from Urban Outfitters. It has three flowers made out of tulle or something with a gold stud in the middle. I love these flats that I wear them to work almost everyday. My first kiss was back in kindergarten haha… When this boy in my class was saying bye since it was the last day of class. He shook my hand first and then gave me a kiss and ran away. Pretty much a kiss and run. And lastly, my favorite MUFE products are aqua eyes and the duo mat foundation.

  89. Not to quote Ke$ha, but “MOI FIRST KISS WENT A LITTLE LIKE THIS!:” I was in grade 8, I knew this kid in grade 11 (ELEVEN!) Liked me, so I was /stoked/. Anyway, lunch hour was coming to a close, and he said “I need to talk to her… alone” so all the other friends left, he stood right in front of me, looked at me and said “I really like you… and I really want to kiss you right now” all i could muster out was a choked off “…okay…” so he leaned in, pecked me on the lips and I pretty much took off running. I now look back on it saying “he ASKED to kiss me?”, but I didnt have a real *MaGiCaL* first kiss until I started dating my first love again, and I kissed HIM. Needless to say, we’re still together 😀
    I want to hear more first kiss stories!! xD AND WIN SOME AQUA CREAMS!!! <3

  126. my first MUFE product was all the way back in 2001!! i bought a few of their star powders because they were very similar to one of my favorite eyeshadows that i bought in paris – i still think they were the same formulation under a french brand because even the colors were similar. i love star powders applied wet as an eyeshadow and even though i don’t wear crazy purples or teals anymore all of the peach-y, gold, and pink colors are still a mainstay in my makeup organizer!

    Reply

  128. My first MUFE product was the infamous #92 purple eyeshadow. Then, it followed with my makeup kit from makeup school being 80% comprised of MUFE products. love! My newest addiction is aqua cream #5! It’s so pretty! It’s a pretty amazing dupe of Nars Orgasm…love love love

Hi, wow this is so awesome, makeup for ever products seem to be really nice 🙂 i have been on my summer break for almost two moths now and its been really nice and HOT, i live in Sweden, Stockholm and the summers are usually really rainy, but not this one 😀 . In august i will start my last year of Gymnasium which is like your high school, freedom here i come.
    The makeup for ever products are unfortunately not being sold in Sweden which sucks. So if anyone knows of a website that sells MUFE internationally ?
    By the way me and my two best friends really love your blog its great 🙂

  240. My first, and currently only, MUFE product is the Full Cover Creme de Camouflage Extreme. A freak pimple pandemonium breakout all over my cheeks caused me to turn to my doctor for a solution. Little did I know that the medicine he prescribed has side effects of scarring! Although my pimples are all gone, my face is now riddled with tons of hyperpigmentation marks. The day I discovered MUFE’s concealer was probably one of the greatest days of my life. I never leave the house without it on, and it looks like my face was as clear and flawless as it was a year ago. I am now a total fan of MUFE, and would love to branch out and try their Aqua Creams!

So today has been just a lovely exercise in sleepy. Not to mention that Mr. Lisa S. has been a bear all day. We own a business and so we are together 24/7. It’s been interesting to say the least today. So winning these lovely, gorgeous neutral mufe aqua creams would make this day soooo much better.

  275. I first encountered Make Up For Ever about five years ago, at the swoon-inducing palace that is the Sephora on the Las Vegas strip. I had never seen the line in person before, and fell in love instantly. My friend picked out a gorgeous lipstick, and I snagged one of the Star Powders. (The beginning of an addiction!)

  278. I never thought i’d ever pay over twenty dollars on any makeup item (skincare is another thing) but i did . I bought a NARS eyeshadow single called Lola Lola because my puppy’s name is Lola ..yeah . It’s sad . But it’s so pretty ! Highly underrated i think 🙂

    Never tried any Make Up For Ever stuff but i’m sorely tempted ! Sephora how i loathe thee .. 🙂

  301. Did I ever tell you about how I sold a Make Up Forever HD Powder to the salesperson at the MAC counter? . . . . it’s a funny story.

    You should give me the MUFE Aqua Creams so that I can make more converts. I’m sure that I’ll love them.

  513. The love started when I discovered Sephora and saw MUFE’s collection. Nicely pigmented, smooth and cute packaging however after a few initial visits I had to really think about it, because they had the perfect shadow I was hunting but the price. Of course I had been in the hunt for a deep plum, pink and blue eye shadow and ironically MUFE had the perfect hue. After looking at my basket I thought to myself who am I kidding I can’t afford 3, only 1 and to this day I have 1 eyeshadow which I love, got the dark plum.

  523. As for my second entry, I am generally not a real fan of the neutral look because I think make up is too expensive to purchase to achieve the same look as if you didn’t put any on at all. However,, when I saw how gorgeous these colors are, some with shimmer, some brighter or pigmented neutrals, I changed my mind right away. I had tried a few products from Make up Forever years ago when they were first starting out and the number of choices available were quite limited. I loved the products then but since there wasnt much of a variety at that time, I went on to other cosmetic lines. Its time to come back to Make up forever and start experimenting with all their wonderful colors. Winning this contest would sure be a start.
