I love that metallics have made a huge comeback, but what I had expected to be a blip in time has lasted well over two years. With some of the collections I've been able to take a peek at for Fall 2008 (especially the one from Chanel), it looks like heavy metals are here to stay, especially decadent gold beauty treats.
I had a love affair with gold polish ever since I saw Heidi Montag and Lauren Conrad from The Hills rocking gilded nails, but now I'm getting a little bit tired of it. I can't say I'm surprised: Gold is a bold, trendy look, and trends do tend to come and go. How about you? Are you a golden girl, or are you over it?

I started wearing gold eyeliner and I don't want to stop!
1I've been wearing gold makeup forever. It looks awesome with my skin tone and I love it. Even when it's not trendy anymore I'll still wear it.
2I lvoe my gold eyeshadow - it is perfect! It totally compliments my features!
3I've just started really getting into my gold eyeshadow. Just spreading a bit over my eyelids is such a simple way to get a really interesting look. I also have some black and grey eyeshadows with a metalic sheen when applied wet, which look really great for a night out. I would be sooo sad if they went out of style
4gold eyeshadow never goes out of style, but I'm getting real fed up with some metallic stuff.
5Gold looks dirty on me since it's the opposite of my skin tone. But I love me some silver.
6I've been wearing gold eyeshadow forever(and a little bronze) because it looks fabulous on my skin. Even if the trend was to die out, you would still see me rocking it!
7I like my gold shadow, but i'm tired of gold polish.
8I never really got into gold makeup; it just doesn't look right with my coloring.
9I'm definitely over it. Gold is pretty, but done.
10I never give any importance to whether something is "in" or not because I don't see why I should care when either I like something or I don't and that won't change with trends. The only thing I don't like is some of the packaging for some like that Benefit one pictured and that Glamourazzi bottle.
11What trend? I didn't even realize since I'm not trendy. I agree with Francoisehardly.
12as a green eyed blonde, it's pretty much mandated by law that I wear gold makeup.
13I'm in the "so what if it's 'Out', it looks good on me" camp. I like trends because they give me an excuse to try new things, but if something works for me, I tend to stick with it. Gold shadow/liner brings out the gold flecks in my eyes, so I'm for it.
14I wore gold makeup long before it became a trend, and will continue to wear it long after it's 'out'.
15its a little too high schoolish for me....
16...but if you like to rock the gold...then go for it. its very olympianesque
17always liked gold-bronzed
18makeup, especially with
my skin tone, haven't tried
the golden polish...
I love my gold nail polish and eyeshadow!!
19I love gold eyeshadow!
20Nah, I never noticed how much there was til now, but it looks great on my olive skin, so I'm stickin' to it.
21I have no problem with it, but I don't wear gold...not even jewelery unless its white gold. It just does not suit my colouring at all..I tend to prefer cooler colours with the exception of greens, where I like lemon-limey ones.
On the other hand, I love silvery and charcoal-y metallics, even bronzes are ok. But out-and-out gold on me looks harsh, brassy and clashes with virtually everything about me.
22I'm a GOLDEN GIRL!
23I've liked gold for many years and its annoying that people suddenly made it a trend and they're now saying its over. I hate all trends for that reason.
24Never! I love gold everything... it can be very flattering on some people.
25I'm over gold alltogether... I have never liked it... looks cheap and tacky... on ANYTHING!
26I've been wearing golds on my eyes for quite a while, and they really bring out the green in them. But I've never been one for the gold-on-cheeks thing, and purely gold-colored lip things make me look very strange indeed. So my style shall keep being my own.
27I'm tired of gold everywhere. Gold, gold, gold.
28I think it's a classic and goes with a lot of styles and outfits..
29Like if I was going to some party or a wedding, with a gold or oxydee dress gold makeup would make it so glamourous and chic!
I am not a gold girl so I never was into this trend.
30Definitely not over the gold trend.
31I really like metallic makeup it really lights up your face and I'd like to see them stick around.
