    I am not sure I need to use Dangerous Cuvée as a base, as it didn’t make a difference. However, earlier in the day I used it as a base for Hypnotizing for work, and it showed through very nicely. I love I Get No Kick as a highlighter, so happy with my purchase.

It was a bit scary for awhile, but a MAC Wipe and tons of blending saved the day. First time using either of these pigments, so I wasn’t expecting Blue Brown to look so red on my skin…

    Eh, it has potential.

    At least I’m using up some of this stuff I’ve had a year or longer, but have never used. I actually surprised myself last time I was in a MAC store a few weeks ago… (MAC Pro in Las Vegas) I didn’t buy a single thing! All I did was renew my pro card. Quite weird… I walked around, but didn’t see anything I couldn’t live without. Plus it was mad crowded, as it was a Saturday evening, so I think that also influenced my decision not to buy.

It has no difference in colors in the photos really, but in real life you could tell the outer V was darkened. Oh well!
