Yikes, the two you disliked the most are the two I wanted the most. Must rethink this...

the light pink (invincible light?), electroplate, superwatt (is that the gold one?), the coppery one, blacklit and the blue.
I REALLY LOVE THE LIGHT PINK and ELECTROPLATE! the former is everything I wanted YV to be with really strong pigmentation and I want to say glitter but not really because they are so smooth that catch the light. Electroplate looks so gorgeous and I think there are similar colours but nothing jumped to mind.
The two I disliked most were the blue (I had to swatch twice to get decent pigmentation, it had the same cobalt blue color we always see so nothing special) and Blacklit (if you are thinking this is like Chanel mirifique: think again! It's not as black...It's kind of dark greyish with not great pigmentation and the flecks of glitters didn't really flatter it much).
As for the gold and coppery ones, I liked the gold but I recently got Illusion d'ombre in Vision and I couldn't justify getting it (I also have the MUFE AC in gold). It looked lovely and almost a more cohesive pigment and swatch than Vision but a different shade of gold. I justified that it wouldn't look too different on the eyes. We shall see.
The coppery one was very similar to the coppery AC (to me at least going by memory) and to I think to bronze (going by memory again) but with a bit more red (Almost like a cross between). I am skipping that one.
I am still waiting to get these. The pink is going to be lovely and so is electroplate! If I have more money down the line I may get the light gold one.

Wow, Superwatt looks very similar to Nebula pigment, which is pretty much the most flattering highlight and barely there nude colored eyeshadow I own. I can't wait to try it out.
