I'm justifying it that they are all trully unique and I haven't seen anything like them
I'm good nothing as exciting as travel overseas like you though, the business is getting there very slowly, more of a side thing at the moment.
So where were you travelling?
oooo... i was not really "travelling" since it's myy hometown... but i did spend some times with family and friends and we went to visit our relatives in jakarta.. that's when the bombings happened..... well, at least i'm safe back here... :grin:

But I'm not a big fan of dark lips on myself and very rarely wear anything dark. So while they are gorgeous I will be passing on them without any trouble
As for the MES well I'm just plain screwed where they're concerned
What's on everyone's Style Black wishlist??
i'm definitely going to get the gilt by association.... and perhaps either young punk or blue flame..
might skip the glimmerglass since i'm not a fan of vampy lips myyself... but things DO change...

No Style Black for me 
I decided to do a spreadsheet for my shadow collection.. I have 156 eyeshadows and that's not including MES, pigments and other brands. 156 MAC eyeshadows!!! Plus 65 MAC lipsticks, 30 other brands lipsticks, 75 glosses (not including little darlings)! Man, no more shadows for me.

 So when am I coming over to play with your makeups?
I know I have about 40+ eyeshadows only about 10 lippies and a few foundations & powders but e/s is my biggest vice, I think I'll hit 100 by next year

Yeah, it doesn't take long, does it? I probably had 10 shadows since 1998, but it just grew since last October. I should stop, but then if I don't spend money on makeup, I will find something else to spend money on lol. At least I stopped buying shoes

^I've got an eye shadow vice too. I don't even want to guess at how many I have lol. I'm about to order some of the Starflash shadows from the Love that Look collection too... And now that I've hopped on board the mineral makeup train I am really in trouble. Alas, I'm afraid that the concept "moderation" does not register with me at times.
My other vices are Blushes, MSF's and uber bright lipsticks >_<

Re: AU Colour Story Release Dates
hey girlies!! guess who's got the scoop for the holiday collections!!!!!!!!
I have some holiday collections info... the release dates are for Australia though so it would be approx 2-3 weeks earlier for the US & Canada
Magic, Mirth & Mischief Colour Story - 2nd November (AU)
Mineralised Eyeshadow Duos x 6
Softsparkle Eye Pencils x 2
Lipsticks x 4
Dazzleglasses x 3
Cremesheen Glass x 3
Mineralised Blush x 2
Nail Lacquer x 2
Magic, Mirth & Mischief Holiday Sets part 1 - 2nd November (AU)
Lip Sets x 2 (warm, cool)
Eye Palettes x 4 (warm, starlet, smokey, resort)
Brush Sets (precision, eye, buffing) - apparently the lineup of brushes in these sets has changed this season
Viva Glam set
Face Kit (Fleur, Bronze)
Eye bag
The promo pic for this had square boxes/palettes with round colored spots, these looked like they could be see-through parts to the shadows underneath and were kinda raised like bubbles. The background colour on the box/palette was gold. (this is from memory of the tiny pic my MA had)
Love's Devine Lash Kit - 2nd November (AU)
#7 Lash
Pentultimate Liner
Reflects Transparent Teal
Promo size Zoomlash
**note - this was a Myers exclusive in AU, so I think this will be a Nordies Exclusive in the US**
This was in a metallic bronzy-pewter bag in a similar shape to the RSS brush bags last year.
Magic, Mirth & Mischief Holiday Sets part 2 - 16th November (AU)
Lip & Lustreglass Sets (coral, pink, neutral)
Pigment Sets (warm, cool)
Softsparkle Eye Pencils Set
There was also another set called Baroque something... it was a David Jones exculsive collection in December. From memory the promo pics was warm bronzy red & gold tones, so this might indicate something about this particular collection.
Sorry if any of this info has been posted already!!
If I remember anything else I will post it.
