I agree

I wonder what the theme will be this year. Maybe like the old "Color Theory" collection with the numbers lasered on the shadows? Hm.

I can't wait to see some pics!

Ack, the quality on the brush sets is waaaay lower than the regular brushes. I got the basic set for Christmas, and the only brush in there that I didn't already have was the lip brush, but I like having two of the same brushes, it's handy. But since I have the regular ones AND the brush set, I can compare them, and yeah...there's pretty much no comparison. Some of the brushes aren't cut evenly (I had to go trim the strays myself) and they shed all the time. A few of them are also made out of obviously different hairs. I mean, they're fine as a starter set and I'm really glad I got them since I use them as back-ups, but I can't see them lasting NEARLY as long as the regular brushes.

I like the SE brushes because of the short handles; too bad all the regular brushes don't come in a SH version.

I adore my full sized brushes, but I like my holiday sets just fine. They are especially handy if you travel. Depending on what is included in the advanced set, I will probably pick it up.

I got all the Holiday 06 brush sets and they are fine... pretty much no shedding, and I have used them a lot. Maybe the quality has declined.. but my SE ones are great

[SMMY]

Gilded green pigment looks suspiciously like Golder's Green. I'm wondering if that is what it is and it's just a typo.

[Susanne]

Oh wow, I love that Color Form Powder!

[SuSana]

If those pics are real, I need both of the colour form powders!

[iheartcolor]

What pics?!? Where are they? I did not see them in the swatches thread.... I must see.......

[iheartcolor]

Hmm....still can't find 'em. Ah well - thanks for the info!

[NatalieMT]

I posted those on the forum last week asking people what they were and my post was deleted. Hmpphhh. Guess I know now though, thanks everyone! xxx

This is definitely coming to The Bay in Canada as well; I confirmed it with my fave MAs on Friday. They showed me everything in the collection book & I have to admit, I'm more excited for this one than Neo Sci-Fi

Ooooh, do you have any details? Pigments? Shadows? What's coming?

Honestly, she showed me the entire book right up to the end of July & there were so many collections that I'm having trouble remembering what goes with what! I know there were pigments [IIRC only one was a repromote but don't quote me on that] and shadows that sounded really nice.. Depending on how much my hair appt. on Thursday ends up costing me, I may be back at the counter with any leftover money. I'll definitely pay more attention this time and take notes! We were going through the entire book because I was asking about Tendertones & Naughty Nauticals, and she went through it all with me. There's some sort of pearlized ball-looking pigmenty things coming but I honestly can't remember which collection they're attached to. I was advised to set aside money for them though!

I am seriously hoping that the pictures in question are for Colour Forms because I was REALLY hoping for some new MSFs in the July collection. The usually have MSFs in July and I would be disappointed if they didn't.

I got the brushes from last years Nordstroms collection and everytime I wash the 187, the black hair bleed. =\ I ordered a full size one so hopefully it comes soon because I freak out everytime I wash this SE one!

Those are probably from the Solar Field collection.

Where can I find the pictures in question?

[coachkitten]

^^I believe that they are on the temptalia.com website under her new forum section. I don't think that I am supposed to link it as the previous one was removed.

[TheOnlyCrystal]

Cannot find it on temptalia.com...
Help me please! Where are the Colour Form Pics?

Oh! I'm hoping so! I'm already hooked by the name, so I can only imagine the damage the actual pics are are going to do!

Yes!


All,
I just noticed that the other brushes from other collections are cracking, including one by Becca (the ones by Paula Dorf are fine, which btw are my favorite e/s brushes), I must be doing something wrong?

I've read that you should never get the wooden part of the handle wet when washing. If you've ever seen a wooden deck or fence that hasn't been waterproofed, you will see how bad they warp, crack, etc. Have you been getting the handles wet? If so, I bet that's the problem.
