Thank you!!!! I love u and miss u

Yeah...it may be just the glosses and Varicose Vein n/p for me. If the pink powder is really flattering, I might get it, too, but my initial excitement for this collection is quickly fading. I'm wayyyyy more excited for BBR.

I can't wait to see a swatch of Varicose vein nl,I am very excited to see it.Erine,have you seen it yet?I am just wondering if it is more purple or lavendar.

again, these aren't beauty powders. they are highlight powders, and the shimmer is just on the top layer, not all the way thru them. the under layer is more matte.

its more lavender. its almost the same color as the purple oval under the specktra.net logo. does that help?

Those are the best swatches I have seen yet. It makes me actually want one of, if not both eye shadow trios. I know I can't pull off that Highlight Powder though. Sadness.

I think since I'm so disappointed with HK, I can get myself Kanga-Rouge AND Possum Nose Pink.

Much hate for HK right now.

I already can't sleep beacuse I am thinking about this since many days

MAC_Whore, are these descriptions of the lipglasses mixed up maybe??

Lipglass (LE) $14.00USD

• Hot Frost – Sheer mid-tone blue pink with multi-dimensional pearlized pigments (frost)
• Splendid – Frosty pale pinky coral (frost)
• Possum Nose Pink – Sheer bright coral with multi-dimensional pearlized pigments (frost)

I think of Splendid and Possum Nose Pink?

Should not Possum Nose Pink be the pinky coral??

Thanks Erine!

Maybe it's not supposed to make sense because it's Dame Edna? lol

 

[Kayraphat]

Just think a sheer coral will look pink on your lips

I think the descriptions are right. Possum looks more reddish than pinkish to me. Hopefully you can get some sleep

 

[rbella]

I might get Spectacle, What a Dame, Coral Polyp and the coordinating l/g (currently listed as splendid on the swatch site). No e/s for me. Not interesting enough and I f*cking hate buying stuff with repromotes....

 

[AdlersMommy22]

okay those swatches have me seriously reconsidering my purchases.. I think that Coral polyp, possum nose, and Splendid may be everything to me that I wish Vegas Volt had been!

Yeah HK hasn't lived up to expectations. I want some things, but not a lot. But can I just say, who puts Yogurt in an eye shadow quad/palette. What am I supposed to do with that light chalky mess?!?!

 

[Rinstar]

I'm definitely more excited about this collection since I saw karen from make-up and beauty blog's swatches.
I'm definitely getting the Wisteria e/s trio now and probably 2 or 3 of the lipglasses. I was originally going to get only the Possum Nose l/g.

 

[nunu]

Can someone tell me if Hollywood Nights is simmilar to Gladiola?
I might purchase Gladiola because i lost my HN lipstick

possum is the bright one and splendid is the softer one, but i wouldn't say any of them are sheer really. i did have em mixed up in my swatches.

i really don't know what they are for. obviously the top layer would be used to highlight the cheekbone, collarbone, etc., but the rest of it is kinda pointless imo. the top shimmer layer would, but i don't think the rest of it would. it barely showed up on my nc/nw 20 skin.

Thanks! I'm so skipping them!
