Yes she did a great job!

 

By the way, either I am really tired or I really missed Miss Thief's posts here. Must be my allergy for dumb asses acting up...

If I can score Flatter me Pearlmatte I'll be content. If Veronica's blush is similar to Play it Proper with a little frankly scarlet-ish hearts, I can safely skip. I have worn Play it proper twice or so since I bought it from the Chenman collection...

I think I pretty much know what I want but I'm on the fence about three things:

 

First is the Cheers my Dear pigment, I like it but I don't love it do I really need it? 

Second I can answer myself it's just the Lord it Up pearlglide, it's perm right so I can get it at anytime just won't have special packaging. I love the pearlglides. They are amazing to me at least. 

Also I'm still on the fence about Pearlmattes I really want one to collect but I wouldn't mind getting some use out of it every now and then still don't know which one to choose. By looks of Karen's swatches I should skip because it appears like its going to be ashy on me, but the compact is so cute. 

post #3098 of 12035
Ugh. Karen's post is too die. I'm adding more things to my list. Lol.
post #3099 of 12035

Follow the simple, but money-saving rule: If in doubt, skip it. There will be products that you will love, which deserve your $$$. 2cents.gif

so helpful! Nothing is really saying buy me although I do think some the products are pretty I'm just not in love with the colors too much because

a lot are kind of similar to what I have already :/

I don't think you should skip. Those colors will look awesome on pale NW skin.

Well, if it's Mac-Guy sanctioned then I guess I'm obligated to get it! girlhaha.gif

 

I did a Live Chat yesterday to see when this was coming out in the UK, and the lady told me that she was "unable to confirm any dates or times of upcoming collections" :(

post #3117 of 12035

I pre-ordered the purple quad. I did not like Betty's at all.

post #3118 of 12035

I am so excited for Betty Bright lipstick!!  And I am a sucker for any pale peach gloss so I will probably pick up Summer Sweetheart lipglass as well.  Oh and Caramel Sundae eyeshadow quad. As for face productsI am having the hardest time trying to decide between getting Cream Soda Blush and Flatter Me Pearlmatte!!!  I know I have a couple of coral blushes already at home but I this shade looks so cute!  And I looked up some swatches of Shell Pearl Beauty Powder and it looks more golden and a bit more shimmery than Flatter Me. I used to have Foolish Me blush and I loved it.  Right now I'm leaning towards Flatter Me because I don't have any Pearlmattes in my collection.  How do Pearlmattes compare to Beauty Powders?

Thanks for these swatches!

 

I'm pretty much sold on Girl Next Door and Daddy's Little Girl. I just wish Ronnie Red wasn't matte! It looks like the PERFECT red for my coloring, and I'm just now getting into the idea of reds, but matte lips totally don't work for me. Too dry.

post #3120 of 12035

So do we expect other bloggers (T?) to have swatches up soon too?
