Ooooo, yeah I saw those, but I really wanted a khol liner in purple.

So I just bought a rimmel one from priceline in my lunchbreak and it's got a sharpener at the end, which I thought was cool, but now that I've played with it more, I'm not so excited. It lacks serious blendability -- it just rubs out instead of smokifing :shakehead:

Noice noice. I like the black gold & the navy. In fact I need a proper navy eyeliner :whistle:
Tell us how the black gold comes out. Is it like a dark bronze or black with flecks of gold?

I am on the look out for a black/purple also. I have a Napoleon eyeliner but they are so hard I feel like I am tearing my skin off! I am also not too happy with my POP Glitter Stix either. While I like the concept & the colour I find that the glitter falls off onto my cheeks after a while. The gel based ones are so much better.

Ok, so I was intrigued.....

Picked up the Black/Navy khol today from Adore. I actually tried it on while I was still in the car and it looks sensational. Kate and Celeste had the Black/Gold one on and that looked amazing! The black/navy one is not so sparkly though and when you take off the lid, dont be scared of the vivid blue colour, it actually goes on nice, dark and smokey!

jaime
29-03-2008, 11:47 AM
it does look quite blue in the pic, but I'll take your word for it LB! I'm intrigued by the black/gold too.....hmmm I feel another order coming on :chuckle:

Celeste(Staff)
31-03-2008, 03:43 PM
Oh Luisa are you loving the Black/Navy? I am still lusting after it. Tell me you love it and the colour would be great on me too :chuckle:

The Black/Gold is kind of hard to describe. It is not black, or at least I wouldn't call it black. It's kind of a dark goldy/bronze, but still gold. The black base gives it the depth that a gold liner could not have, but it looks lovely and dark goldy when it's on. I looooove it. I think it would look hot all over the eye lid and blended a bit upwards to lighten it up.

Luisa Brown
31-03-2008, 10:32 PM
I loved the black gold on your eyes and yes the black navy would suit you too!;)

I wish payday would get here quicker!!!

Will a normal sharpener work on them or do I need a special sized one?

I'm buying a playstation game for my hubby on payday so its only fair to buy something for me isn't it:chuckle:

Luisa Brown
01-04-2008, 05:56 PM
Gilly just a normal cosmetic pencil sharpener will fit these.

Even you girls with mortgages deserve a teeny treat every once and a while though don't you?

I really feel for people who have mortgages at the moment. When my parents were young they bought their first house no worries at all. However today people are put under such extreme financial pressure to buy even the most basic property. Lets not get started on rising interest rates etc.

I am very fortunate that my parents set my brother and I up by buying properties for us many many years ago when we were still children.

I really do wonder how on earth people can do it these days what with the price of housing and then all that goes with owning a property. It is so unfair that people have to struggle so much just to live in a house they can to call their own. People are certainly under enormous pressure these days compared to even just ten years ago.

I agree, PCC. Although part of me always reminds myself that it was my choice to buy a house - it is a good investment (if well-selected in terms of location, uniqueness etc) but really I couldn't care less if I owned a house or not. Hubby was more keen than me. Buying a house is something a lot of people do because they think they have to, or because it is the socially normal thing to do when you 'grow up'. But it is not an option for everyone - and it is also very much an Australian thing. Many people in big cities like NYC or London do not buy houses or aspire to. But as I mentioned it can be a safer investment option and I do believe you need to invest your earnings into something in order to create a nest egg for your future.

Medusa
19-04-2008, 05:57 PM
No because I thought it was a bit like the Revlon Bedroom Eyes one, a powder. I don't think it is a pencil.
The website is not very clear about it. In fact I ordered what I thought was a red lipstick is actually a neutral deep lip colour. It's still a good colour for me but I always find the lip colours to be wrong on the site.

fusspot
19-04-2008, 07:52 PM
do u know what ......:rollthoseeyes: u r right , what a dill i am:shakehead: but the good thing is that on the other end it has a flat eyeliner brush.

i thought u got helen/paris combo for the lips ? cause that looks REALLY red

I know - when Kate said that this morning I realised I really do need all three. I made a point of wearing Black Gold yesterday just to prove to myself that I do use and like them and thus it is not TOTALLY unreasonable to have all of them...
