an exchange and FOTD

When I was in MAC last I exchanged a few products I didn't love for a couple great finds. I went in to swatch Motif, an orangey pink eyeshadow that I discovered while going through Laura's makeup she had packed away and forgotten about (the SHAME!) and although it is not something I ever would have picked up on my own, I love it. I've been pairing it with Trax - a plum color that has a similar gold shimmer to it, and then blend them out using Naked Lunch. I love how they all compliment each other.



I also picked up Underage Tinted Lipglass. On my fair skin it is a milky nude pink. I love it.




















Don't you love it when you are able to exchange something you don't like for something you love? Have any great exchange tales to tell?!

    Okay Michelle - for the makeup-challenged people like me, give me some free advice! My question is...how do you find a good 'nude lip' color? I have been trying a few out and the only thing I find that I like (and don't laugh) is if I mix some liquid foundation with lip gloss *gasp* I'm sure this is a makeup-don't but I don't want to buy a million colors to find the right one for me - HELP!
