That's good, I was told the released date was pushed back to August. I know they had the items there because card holders could get first dibs. I'll wait, I rather buy some other items anyway.

hmmm now I don't know if these r worth it...I was thinking they would be as deep as paint pots

Nope, no where as deep as the paint pots. In fact, I just went to look at one and it was broken :( Gonna snap a pic so you can see the depth now

Can you share the site with the names?  I had started compiling a list of my own, but a complete one would be very helpful!  Thanks!

I found this on another site but I have no idea who created it.

Here's another one that does have an author - Mac Nunu:

I got both of these links from Makeup Alley. It seems there was a disagreement about whether Naughty Strawberry and Glistening Garnet were the same so you may have to do further research on that one.

I am afraid to even look at the infalliables, because I know me. It all begins with bringing one home...then before you know it, I will be on a cross town search for all of them.

And then where do I put them (did I mention that I used up an entire product two days ago...what a sense of satisfaction!)

I know that a good product doesn't have to cost a lot of money, but I have so many good products that did cost a lot of money that I would feel guilty using the infalliable instead...

Thus the cycle begins! First all the justifications for why I don't need this, then the "well, I'll just peak" phase begins, and It's pretty much over from there!

I have to go to Target tomorrow. How much you want to bet one of these babies falls into my bag ( I'm thinking that new plum color:eyelove:)

So, I should pretty much be consumed by this Infalliable hunt for the next 2-3 days...

Highly Charged. Opened the box and found it like this. It removes VERY easily from the pan!!

However, it's very moldable. Sort of like clay, therefore it was easily fixed!

A lot of the Infalliable shades are permanent! So, you can just throw a couple in your cart everytime you go to Target, haha. Not a big deal, because really...who sticks to their list when they go to Target?! Just make sure you buy the LE shades first whistle.gif

I have 2 more on my list... 

Ah, I should check out my CCO. It's a long shot but if I'm going to buy these, I'd love to get 30% off!

I also stuck a pin in it and was somewhat disappointed to find that the pots ARE super shallow (thought maybe T's was some kind of press release mini). It'll probably still take me forever to finish one because you don't need to pack it on, but I think I'll skip Pure Flash after all.

CVS online has the infallibles for 25% off but you have to spend $49 to get free shipping. 

 

I had talked myself out of getting Highly Charged but now I see Chinablaq's pic and I want it! But I will wait to either see it in person or wait till I finally get Superwatt.

Like Richelle I spent the last few days convincing myself I don't need Highly Charged . Definitely back on my list.

I went and swatched yesterday. After an intense session of going back and forth, I settled on four: Electroplate, Pure flash, Superwatt and Love Power (Pink one??). I could only afford two (well really I didn't want to buy anything but I couldn't resist) and so I hummed and hawwed.


Thoughts: Love power...sooo pretty but once I saw it in direct light it turned this pink color kinda like swish which I loathe. I skipped.



Credit: Temptalia.com Swish is third from left, second from right.

Pure flash: Love that it is a mix of pigment and flashy sparkles that catch the light. WANTED IT SO BAD but convinced myself I would have a dupe (I am thinking one of the MUFE AC I think #13). It is also dupe-able in terms of the base color but still so pretty. The MUA said she used it on a lot of people as highlight on the face and under the brow as well as a base color (it would be killer with a soft purple-tinged brown like shale in the crease) - I MAY JUST HAVE TALKED MYSELF INTO IT!


Superwatt: This one I thought would be really dupeable but it really isn't. Such a unique shade amongst mac's many golden-tinged shadows. I ended up getting this one. (No-brainer for me: I LOVE GOLDS AND SILVERS!)

Electroplate: Very unique. Nothing quite like it in the mac perm range. I ended up with this one as well.

The MUA went into great lengths informing me that these can tilt and break and you can just smoosh them back together. I found that if my hands were a little damp (read sweaty or just cleaned) I couldn't open the jars (I told her so) and that it was a problem for me because I have arthritis and so they are not overly user-friendly. I was shocked that it was so little content for the price point which is why I DON'T NEED PURE FLASH!

End of my life story.

I have this palette and LOVE it.

 

I also have Infra Violet. It is nothing like the shadow in the EL palette. It has a touch more purple and a beautiful sheen. Think along the lines of Stars N Rockets.

I swatched Highly Charged and almost got it but it is very similar to the MUFE Aqua Cream I just got and I like that formula better.
