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

    I just love it! This also the first time I am posting up a look using Shale. I use Shale a lot, but never seem to post those looks. I’ll have to do it more often :)

    It still amazes me how very little pigment it takes when you use it. I’ll never make a dent in any of mine!

    I used an insane amount of shadows for this which I don’t think I really had to do, but oh well, got me using some stuff :) And still managed to take pictures before I applied my liner… a little too eager this morning to get going to the festivities!

    I LOVE Prrr lipglass, I can’t stop wearing it everywhere.

It’s fun, but still in a subtle way. Lime green that’s wearable?!

    I think I finally felt like Nice Kitty Lipglass was wearable. Neon pink can be intimidating, but it worked for this look! I really need to try to use my lipglasses more often, they are so neglected :(
