Does anyone have any issues with the Sun Kissed and Sweet Pink rouge? They seem to blend in to my skin tone more than other blush/rouges that I have used. Is it just me?[huh]

the sweet pink blends too much with my skin, too. I have no problem with the sun kissed tho...

I ordered some products today!!! I can't wait to receive them!! I ordered the Red Hot Red, Sweet Pink rouge, 1930's mascara, pistachio and black pearl!!! I just hope that the sweet pink is going to be fine with my redhead hair and pale skin... I also hope that everything will be okay with the shipping and everything (fingers crossed...)!! Have you used the 1930's mascara, i'd love to have some comments!! Thank you very much!! I'm so happy to be back on the lounge!! Bises à toutes!!

I picked it up during the sale insanity. I have to say I really like it. It's much more of a natural look then some people go for, however. It doesn't give huge volume or anything like that. I don't notice any gingerbread smell as Besame claimed. I think they did away with that soon after it was released. well, hope you like it!

I've been using the mascara as well, and I like it. Mine has plenty of gingerbread smell, though! When it's put on, that is. It's not smellable after putting it on. It is a more natural look, but I love how non-clumpy it is. My lashes always clump, no matter what I use, so this is a minor miracle. You can easily put on two or three coats for a darker, more intense look. It's a bit less waterproof than I would like; I did get a little smudging after a long afternoon test-driving cars in the 95-degree Texas heat. But I also had a little on my lower lashes that day, which I usually don't do. Be vintage and only use it on your top lashes and you'll be fine.

Well, I have found a UK stockist but for the old size products its £12 a tube of lippy as opposed to the $6 from the US site, even with the exorbitant postage its cheaper to buy from the US.

Well, I just ordered more stuff today. Geez, it's like candy to me..I can't stop buying from the sale! I bought more of the loose powder, peacock blue shadow, lip liner and another tube of the 1930s mascara (if you haven't it tried it, it is awesome!). Besame suckered me in by their offer of the free trio set:).

A number of people have, and commented in this thread. My review is just a few posts up this page.

I like the Debutante pink shade. A happy color! I love Clinique Bamboo Pink, but the new Besame one is very nice! Their packaging is gorgeous! The sale has fantstic buys.
