That's coz Monday is a public holiday here in case anyone was wondering.

I've got a list... but I don't know whether to get Black Knight or Midnight Media... any thoughts?

I'm going for BK because I want to use it to mix and suspect a creamy lipstick will mix better than a more matt one

Black Knight will give you a creamy wash of greyish black and Midnight Media will give you more of an opaque black finish

I'm not so impressed with the greasepaint... it does look a bit like greasepaint, lol. It's good to buff with your fingers for a smokey eye, and glitters in shadows show up better when applied on top, but I found it creased a lot (I used primer) so I wouldn't use it if I couldn't take my eyeshadow, brushes and eyeliner pencil out with me to touch it up.

What primer are you using?
I've been using it with Too Faced Shadow Insurance and its lasted 14hrs on me!

its a great collection. everything in it is gorgeous. i went to the pro store the day it came out. i was lucky cos i didnt see it online the night before and was worried it wasnt in sotres yet.
i only got black knight lipstick and blackware glimmerglass. i decided on black knight over midnight media because MM had burgundy/purple undertones and BK was pure black. so i thaught i could create a colour close to MM using cyber or other lip pencils with BK and i like the formula and packaging of BK abit better.
Blackware is beautiful. it does look scary in the tube and on the applicator but if you wear it on its own or with subculture pencil it deepens your natural lip colour and still looks quite natural.
the MES were gorgeous. the one that stood out to me most was Cinderfella. it looks like sharkskin shadestick covered in reflects pearl.

There must be something wrong with me too.. I only bought VA mask and exfoliator. On Sunday, thought I was missing out, so I went and swatched the collection and it didn't do much for me. Maybe because there is no 'pink' in the collection

^^ I think for me its that i hate mineralize e/s and dark lipsticks/lipglosses dont do it for me... And I already have the brush and the eyeliners!! :S But I feel like I NEED to buy something else from the collection... hahaha... Maybe I should just save my money for DSqaured.. and the holiday kits.. but even those dont seem to be exciting me very much....

I think it is time for a visit to a MAC store to remind me...
