The blue is stunning. But damn the white looks like Fresh Ice which I already have

Thank you very much for the pics and swatches Anneri!

Both MES look super pretty and I have to get them heart.gif

 

Smutty Green reminds me of a lighter Dark Indulgence from SP.

Thanks for the swatches!  Smutty Green is reminding me of my NARS Night Porter eyeshadow.

It looks like Forest Green piggie but in pan form.  I could be in LOVE

Yay! These came out in Sweden today. Have anyone had a chance to swatch and try out the products?

post #42 of 144

Hoping this will go online soon, I wanted to try the concealer and grab Narcissus before it's gone.

So is this a separate collection called Perfectly Finished?  or are the MES part of Chen Man?  I am so confused...

post #49 of 144

The MES are part of the semi-perm range that changes every year. Chen Men is different.

This collection is online! I tried MINERAL as a free shipping code and it applied, I just hope it works once I check out.
Is there any other code I might be missing?

Aliens Stole My Eye Bags! Wow, OK the Mineralize concealer is frikken fantastic. I usually hate the stuff - my under eyes are very puffy and also very dry and everything creases and cakes up, even with the utmost care. Meanwhile, I came in to my store today with just some P&P Vibrancy Eye on and tried out the concealer.

 

I'm NC15 and this stuff runs rather light so NW20 was the perfect shade - it blended it beautifully. It's got a brush just like the disposable lip brushes that are used in-store. A small amount (like half a loaded brush) is enough for both eyes and gives strong coverage BUT no caking, flaking, settling into the fine lines and this is after hours out in the hot sun. I didn't even need to do the usual trick of pressing my hands into the applied concealer to warm it and melt it in. 

 

Now for the extra crazy part....I had huge puffs this morning from having a cat sit in my lap for hours yesterday. A minute or so after application, my under eyes started to tingle - it was a pretty major tingle, though not a burn. I had a feeling something was going on with my eye skin so I took a look. What was happening was the caffeine or depuffing whatever in that concealer was so quickly shrinking my eye bags that the skin was working so hard shrinking down it was being tingly. 

 

I HAVE NO BAGS NOW. IN 5 MiNUTES I HAD NO BAGS AND PERFECTLY SMOOTH CONCEALED UNDER EYES WITHOUT A TRACE OF A LINE.

 

This stuff is instantly my miracle concealer. It looks great on and I'm not wearing any other face product at all and it still looks completely natural. Everyone should go in and get matched - I am just completely thrilled here, Specktrettes!

 

I've gotta run, but I'll be around tomorrow if anyone has any other questions - I used a 227 to apply, btw.

It's very interesting!! I should try it when I finish my concealer! Anyway, did Vibrancy eye worked for you? because on me it didn't do a lot.. it brightens and refresh the skin a bit, but nothing special at last for me. Now I've finished it and I''d like to try something new for the eye area!

Originally, I got it to replace Fast Response Cream for depuffing, because I didn't like its heavy texture, even though the depuffing was good. On me it gives me a combo of depuffing, illuminating, some color correction and eye makeup base and it's gentle to my delicate eye skin. It's not really much of a concealer, but since most concealers would get caky on me and settle into my fine lines, as well as be hard on my skin, I'm OK with just color balancing and adjusting the light reflection in the area, since de-puffing is still my main concern.

 

I'm still going to use it, because it seems like it works excellently with the Mineralize Concealer, for double de-puffing and adding radiance underneath, since the concealer is quite high coverage.

 

 

UPDATE: After wearing it all day, it behaved very well, not changing color and keeping the puffy eyes pretty much under control (although I think the main depuffing effect occurs when it's freshly applied). When I took off the concealer at the end of the day, my eye skin was very soft and smooth, not harshed up like some other concealers leave it. This is a fantastic product and I'm heading back to my store to buy a tube of it.

 I am leaning towards getting this instead of the one that came out with the Naturally collection
