Yup. You can definitely tell the difference between VP and Frost. You can tell just by swatching. I wish there were more permanent and limited edition VP's.

After an unexpected makeup purchase today - damn Sephora's are everywhere in Los Angeles - my list has narrowed down to JW, Sonoran Rain, Caqui, and possibly HP. If what MAC is saying is true & this collection will actually be available for 6 weeks, then I will get the first three next week and HP in about a month.

I have been going back back and forth with my choices for this collection all weekend. At first I was sold on just getting JW and ALMP, until I really started to look at more swatches. I am now for sure getting AMPL, Caqui and JW.
Caqui because I need an orange like that in my life, like right now. I am toying with AMPL because the swatches I am seeing are different on everyone. Its the lighting and different skin tones I know, but I figure that its such a true and cool purple that it will go well with some of my favorite liners, like Currant, Nightmoth and Vino.
I even thought about SNS and Parisian Skies... maybe on the 2nd go round. I feel like I need to order my 3 faves first and then pick those up maybe later in the week, even HP looks pretty (and I love the initials HP, being an Harry Potter fan... the name Hocus Pocus connects like that for me) I like Nitro:licious too. but later...
SNS looks like a great brown that I can use as a nuetral, but the the glitter factor is making me wait a bit. I hope its around come Friday... maybe. I am so excited for tomorrow night 12am!

Hmm is it possible that all I want is JW? I like the looks of the other shadows but.. Money is really tight. And I'm totally passing on the lipglasses so those are out.

[/quote] Oh, no already! :lmao: Wow. I guess I need to start, too. I've come into a nice bit of money and I am tempted to buy all, but I need to maintain my sanity. Maybe I will crack and buy Caqui? Nah. I still stand by JW, Caqui and Hocus Pocus. I have way too many lipglasses and I prefer lipstick these days.

At this point I've narrowed it down to only getting one Hocus Pocus...and that's it. Hoping I don't need to spend $50 for free shipping, otherwise I may throw in some perm shadows I've been eyeing...or maybe the cleanse off oil.

Any more swatches of Hocus pocus besides the bloggers that made the collection?

Well I guess while we're sitting here site-stalking...what would be good shadows to go with Hocus Pocus? This will be my first grey, and I would like to add a shade lighter and shade darker to buy with it. I have Typographic and Black Tied, but since HP is a brown-grey I wonder if those would be too harsh. What do you think of Vex and Copperplate?

I've gotta stalk...I'm afraid that AMPL will sell out first, and that's what I want most from this collection
I keep going back and forth on SNS. It's sooo pretty, but I'm almost positive that I have a similar shade in my stash from NYX

Is the NYX one also glittery?
UrbanSweetheart
Well-known member
yes it is! Actually I think I have two similar shades from NYX. One from their original Nude on Nude palette, which is more shimmery than glittery. And the other is an eyeshadow single. I can't think of the name of it at the moment, but the brown is darker than the brown of SNS. The eyeshadow single, however, also has glitter like SNS
