Description:

Hello Gals ! As summery days are coming I want to organize a new swap : the MAKE UP SWAP (brands only) --- WE WILL SHIP 2 PRODUCTS ---

  • by Brands only I mean any brands (l'Oreal, maybelline, Stila, Sephora , and so on) it's famous brands. (expensive ones like Chanel , YSL, Dior are OK if the sender want ^_^// )

  • Every participant will make a list of their favourite BRANDS and PRODUCTS (and allergy if there are some...) on their profile before the beginning of the swap. Don't be too picky , you have to let the choice to your partner.

  • There is no minimum/maximum value. I think a good amount is at least 10$-15$ / product. and don't be too cheap ! you have to create a package that you would like to receive. You will have to spend some money. (and you will receive good stuffs too !)

  • only NEW products please ! sealed and/or never used !

  • It's an international swap. For LOCAL brands, please ask your partner if she wants to receive your country's own brand's make up.

•Please check your partners profile thoroughly in order to see their specific likes and dislikes.

  • Samples are welcome in extras : <3

° EXEMPLES: mascaras, hair / face masks, eye shadows, liners, nail polish, nail stickers, brushes, blush , concealer, ... PLEASE RESPECT YOUR PARTNER's WISHES

You'll have 2 weeks to prepare this swap. Please spend some time to find some great products that will please to your partner. You can also join a letter if you want. After all it's very personal to choose someone's make up, right ?

I will make sure we have no flakers, so I'll look at every profile carefully. Minimum 4,7 rating and if I have a doubt I'll ban the potential flakers.

Happy Swapping everyone! (^_____^) PS: I know this sound crazy but I'll angel if there are flakers. <3 (that's why i'll chose each participant carefully! it's a big swap after all)

I dont know whether to join or not, All the makeup swaps I have joined really disappoint me, everyone sends makeup used or tested, ones that have been opened, Or they just completely send rubbish! $1 Items or freebies and tester items!!! I buy my items in drugstores with brands u cant get outside the UK, And people send me items that are of really bad quality TT^TT Ive been in so many makeup swaps, they have all been really bad :/

@ichigoshortcake I know what you mean! I always gets those opened, used makeup! Which I get very allergic too.. :( and please try not to send me this brand LA COLORS because im allergic to this brand too.. Thank u for understanding!

I used a lot of black mascara and eyeliner, so they are always welcome! Others I like, lip gloss, eyeshadow (any colors, black, white but I dont use brown/earth tone) blusher (especially if they are in really cute packages !) Other brands or organic, homemade brands are okay with me! as long they are NOT from the dollar store shop! *^__^*

I would love to try other brands too! ;)

I don't know y I'm so excited for this swap! >.<

nadithings 05/19/2011 #

Oh and what is the value $ dollar for this swap? I think it's better to put value to it.. :)

petitpaindepice 05/20/2011 #

As it is for two products we can set the minimum amount of 25 - 30 $ , what do you think about that? also brand prices change according to which country you live in. But we can refer to the american price of the product ^_^

Also I noticed that many people joined this swap then left... If anybody has any question please ask here :)

nadithings 05/21/2011 #

I'm okay with that! :)

But u don't have to worry about me leaving! Hehehe..

Vanillacreamteas 05/21/2011 #

I love Mascara (black only and volume ones), Black eyeliners...not too crazy about bright colors. Love browns/greens in the eyeshadows. Also pinks in the lipstick (I don't wear lipgloss). I am really fair and have a foundation staple already so don't need that. I also like BB Creams (in a light/fair color or no color). I don't do concealer and I don't use Blush or Nail Polish.

Brands I like are BeneFit, Urban Decay, Smashbox, Revlon, Too Faced, Tarte, I like some Sephora brand like eyeshadows, I cannot used CoverGirl as I am allergic to their cosmetics (it makes me break out and itch, not good)!! I'm open to different countries cosmetics as well!

Ok, that us 4 for this swap: * weeatcrayons + ichigoshortcake + nadithings + me(petitpaindepice) *

We all posted on the swap's discussion, and we all seems serious about this swap , + we all have 4,99 rating or higher. I'm happy with that.

So please, be careful, spend some time to please your partner's wishes, respect the minimum value and dont forget to write a nice note for your partner. you can also join Extras - it is very welcome of course -

I really want this swap to be a wonderful moment for each of us, that's why I only chosed people that I can trust. AND if there is anybody shady who join the swap until tomorrow I'll ban him of course.

Also Ichigoshortcake seemed to really worry because of her bad past with cosmetics swaps. -> to her futur partner : please pay attention =) Also I remind you that I'm willing to angel.

That's it ! if there is any last question, please hurry ! and I let you know that there will be a second similar swap if it is well done and if everybody is HAPPY with what she will receive :D

Cosmetics I use ; face masks, hair dying (ask me for color) , eyeshadow (any except yellow), false lashes, mascaras (but i have too much), blushes (especially creamy compact texture or mousse but any blush = I would love ), wipes for removing make up : or anything for removing make up I would love <3 , nail laquer (especially OPI and Essie and bourgois) , concealer, FOUNDATION (im very picky with foundation because I wear only good brands: also I like: mousse texture, anything creamy or a powder that is creamy or even liquid that look like powder BUT I dont use compact powder or cream that is very liquid).

I would love so much to receive something from it, especially the Stila Blush or the Stila foundation (link on the blog) because I cant purchase it from switzerland. so if I receive something like that my partner can be sure that she will receive swiss chocolates from me. BUT i want to say that I didnt organise this swap for this purpose and ANYTHING that is matching my tastes would be greatly appreciated. ^____^

I'm not too picky with brands , anything of good brands like the swap suggests would be highly appreciated ! .. and if I happen to have an american partner (or anyone who has access to Victoria's Secret, I would love love love products from there)

Now refering to products I'm again easy to shop for.. I'm not usually using heavy make up so just cute pink(ish) lipglosses or eyeshadows (I prefer liquid ones) and as far as mascara goes, black. Also love nailpolishes of most colors (I only don't like yellow, orange and green) .. I love dark nailpolishes such as black, dark red, teal, dark blue and pink ones. Well anything cute and girlie overall :)
