how does it look like?

[Glossie]

Duckiee, I knew I ought to have described it earlier

Well, it's my kind of colour. Y'know, the type I always ended up getting one too many. It's goldish-bronzey, nudish-corally. Gosh, I'm lousy at this, aren't I? OK, the new makeup is inspired by the Far East, as per the Beauty Note in Style: mag. Perhaps you can get the idea that it's a warm kind of shade.

The pressed powder gives a silky iridescent finish, also as stated in the mag. Wonder when these will hit the counters. Really don't need to look forward to this in the new year! Ha ha!

This is crazy! I thought the GST hike is 1%? But the glossimers' price are up by a whopping 11%! :note:

just bought a Praline @SGD30

thought it looked like my MAC LUST but i think it feels better..
MAC LUST has this tasty chocolatey taste which almost tempted to eat it!
Praline is not as greasy feeling which i like it..

feel like buying another one - Voltage or Laser? :choice:

Hi, my sister's going to Singapore, what Glossimer colors are available there? Also, do you have Glossimer extreme and if so, what colors do you have? Thanks!

[ibonne]

oops i only notice these three - praline, laser & voltage so far.

Bought mine at our CK Tangs Departmental Store's Chanel counter (Orchard Road, with Marriot Hotel Singapore).

if i'm going back again for my other lemming these days, shall look out for you.

Meanwhile, maybe other cotters would like to help lunakiss?

Hello! Le Crayon Kohl are my favourite eyeliner. Much much smoother than MAC's Eye Kohl's in my opinion (which are really hard and tug on me). The grey-blue metallic shade you're referring to is 'Graphite', unfortunately it doesnt show up very well on me so I gave it to a friend. I love Marine though which is a gorgeous dark navy blue.

HTH!

BTW, does anybody have a picture of what the Ginger glossimer looks like? (could it possibly be Zanzibar, just with a different name?)

[Xue]

Definitely agree with She here!

Le Crayon Kohls go on sooooooo smoothly without tugging, perfect for lining your inner rims!

Only downer is they don't have as many pretty colours and they tend to smudge if you have oily lids.

[She]

Yes, only 4 shades at the moment

I was hoping they'd bring out some new colors with their Spring 2004 color collection but they only bought out a new Le Crayon Yeux (which is good too, but no where near as smooth as Kohl) in Berry

[stilafaux]

Stopped to look at the new Spring glossimers
They had it in Ginger and the Zanzibar.
I was wondering if the Ginger is an Asian exclusive or an asian version of the Jaipur glossimer often talked about in MUA? :huh:

I really like the look of both glossimers. They look so wearable !

[duckiee]

yes i saw them too today! i like both.. but they aren't shades that i usually wear and love (like pinks and peaches ) so i'm hesitating to get them...

both are very lovely though! plus their Radiance Powder Compact looks gorgeous too! very shimmery and lovely!

[She]

No Jaipur in Asia

If Ginger is caramel toned, then it's certainly not the Asian version of Jaipur (which is pink)

I was really looking forward to getting it, guess I'll have to wait till its released here
