This! I keep meaning to treat myself to Nars' Outlaw blush. I'm going to pick it up with the Andy Warhol collection. It's a must have for the Fall.

I'm glad you like the theme of this collection! Thank you for all your help!:heart2: You have some great idea! :drool:
I swatched Hidden Treasure and honestly its the only item from the collection that I'm even remotely interested in... It definitely has a metalic/shimmery property to it which is different 4 me yet very alluring...

I know this may have been posted earlier in the thread, but which brushes are recommended with the fluidline? Those are the only things I think I'm going to pick up from this collection.

I was thinking of getting Dark Diversion to possibly use as a base but in rockin's swatches, it reminds me of Hyperviolet Paint Pot which I already have so I may skip DD.

The lipglasses look great! Way better than I thought they would. Craaap. Let's hope I can restrain myself because I really hate the lipglass formula, it's like super glue to me!
I'm having the same issue... I dont really like lipglass but I want Restless anyway because it looks like a gloss version of Oh Oh Oh....

Sorry, I didn't pay any attention. I was too focused on getting swatches and making my purchase. I did notice several models were wearing Camden Chic mattene. One had this really pretty eye look. She had the gold from the Marché Aux Puces duo traced around her entire eye like eyeliner, and I think it was either the cream or light gold color from the Culturalized duo on her lid.
All these looks sound really nice to me. Thanks.

I think I'll add Hidden Treasure to my imaginary list. Applying blush with a very light hand is a simple task for me. XD (It's a shame the blushes will probably all be sold out online by the time I find out if I have that job or not, which will be a few weeks at the very least.)

dont know if you saw this, but i think it helps for the eyeshadows at least to see someone swatch them realtime

I find that Mac mattes are often hard to swatch, but work well on the eyes. I got reminded of that this morning when I put on Gazette Grey (which isn't quite a matte, but behaves like one). It swatches terribly, but has a lot of pigment when applied. I might make a point of testing this one with a brush when I go to visit it in person.
I wanted to use a brush, but there were too many people around all trying to see everything. I also didn't see any brushes nearby. I kinda squeezed my way next to the display and did my swatches as fast as I could. I may take a brush with me in the future.

Think I'm going back to a pass on this collection. MAC, and Estee Lauders fall collection are killing my wallet for the last couple months. Plus I seem to be venturing in other brands as well. I'm getting a few bits from Marilyn then sitting tight for the holiday collection. That NARS blush is gorg! I have yet to own a NARS blush. Hope everyone has fun hauling soon! :)

I'm skipping this collection. I just can't. I need to save up for the other upcoming ones. Plus, I'm psyched about the Nars x Andy Warhol collection coming out around the time Marilyn does. Money, money and more money. Happy hauling soon everyone!

Hope everyone has fun hauling soon!

Not your fault at all, I know how crazy these events are and how crowded they get. Blame all the other people who swatched it with their fingers before you. :) It just ruins mattes.

BTW, I posted a swatch of Indie Spirit earlier (I believe in this thread) to show how pigmented it is and how beautiful it looks.

As is the norm, all the swatches are making my list grow. I'm not interested in Marilyn didn't buy a thing from By Request, so I'm gonna go ahead and get all the lipglasses and Hidden Treasure blush from this collection. Restless is my type of color so I knew I'd be getting that, but I was sure hoping to avoid Eclectic Edge. Ready to Roam is quite pretty, but nothing surprised me like Hidden Treasure! That is one pretty blush. I'm with those who usually do NARS blush, in fact the only blushes I have from MAC that I use is Bite of Apple and Ambering Rose. However the color of Hidden Treasure is stunning so I'm going to give it a try.

I'm on the NARS blush bandwagon. I started off with a several MAC blushes (Coppertone, Desert Rose, Sweet As Cocoa, Raizin, Plum Foolery, Ambering Rose) with every intention of getting more. But I quickly returned them after getting my first NARS blush (Taj Mahal). I only kept MAC Coppertone because it was my first blush, but I haven't worn it since. I find I had to keep building up the MAC blushes too much before I would see it on my face and achieve the color wanted. The MAC blushes are pretty and I do like them, but I love NARS. I don't know why I'm so proud of my NARS blush collection. I'm definitely getting more, including Outlaw.

I feel the same way, I only own 4 MAC blushes and then I have about 20 NARS the first time I tried them I actually got the Danmari palette and fell completely in love I had never really been a blush person but after getting this palette all I wanted was to get all their blushes. I have to say that Taj Mahal is my favorite blush, it looks so amazing on deeper skin tones I think all girls NC40 AND NW and deeper should own this blush. Of all the products I own this is the only product that I have ever hit pan on twice which reminds me I need to get another soon the one I have is almost done.
