- #22 Exquisite Plum - deep plum

I have been lusting after these lipsticks ever since I first read about them several months but haven't bought one yet. I have been unsure of how a deep plum shade would look on me so maybe it would help if I first tried it out in a lipstick of superior quality and formulation. Other than that, I want to get the Eye Palette, I love all the shades in it and can't wait to see how they all work together. I also love the new shade of the Creme Blsuh, I am always in search of a pink cream blush that will fill the void let by Vincent Longo's Watercanvas Blush being pulled out of almost every store around me.

Love this look!
