Never is very similar to MAC Plum, which is already my favorite liner to pair with Glamourdaze. Now I can use both pencils interchangeably.

 

EDIT: Trying on Glamourdaze with Never reminded me just how much I love this lipstick. So much so that I think I need another BU. I've been feeling the need to cut back on BUs in general now that my lipstick stash has grown so much, but I Glamourdaze needs more BUs.

'i've got a crush on you' is really nice...it pulls much more red toned brown on me than club when i've used it...club kinda gives me more smokey and this one gives me more colour...(just over tfsi on skin)

As for the pigments, I had tested the green and neutral pigment sets, and of course they looked beautiful. Some people complain that they're a bit crunchy or chunky, but that doesn't bother me. The green set was so pretty, but i have at least one of the pigments ('Moss Garden' in Vera collex 'Butterfly Party') and i have eye shadows similar to the other colors. I also had one of the pigments in the neutral set ('Rose Light' in Vera collex 'Strawberry Patch'), and the rest were somewhat similar to the Vera 'Aloha' neutral set. ...Why, yes, i did get all 3 Vera pigment sets, both Pearlmattes, 4 Pearlglides, & 'Butterfly Dream' Plushglass, 'cuz i love the color, even tho' i'm no fan of Plushglasses. At least i spread those purchases out over 3 months.

 

I really hauled on Glamour Daze, so i'm trying to only spend modestly on the remaining collections this year - I completely skipped Holiday Fabulousness, nothing from Making Pretty coll., and only 3 out of 15 from Taste Temptations coll. I want 4 things out of 19 in the Strength coll. But Après Chic is killing me... out of 30 things i want 8 or 9, which is a lot.

 

To sum up: I have already voted for Sweetly Smoky and Lavish Rose

Okay, I am starting to vacillate about wanting the quad.  Must resist!

I actually saw it on eBay a couple of weeks ago but decided not to get it because I was worried about it being too old. I'm not very keen on buying cream-based products that have been discontinued because I'm concerned that they may already have gone off.

 

I should have bought it. It's such a gorgeous colour
