I freaking love CCBs, too, elegant!

I use them all the time on my eyes and lips. I just wish the red one were eye/lip safe.

It's a lovely color on the cheeks. I've had this product for a while now and its simply beautiful. I'm sure it will also work on multiple skintones. I thought they had actually discontinued it. For the ladies that are on a budget this CCB has a tendency to pop up at the CCOs.

I probably have seen before at a CCO and stupidly stayed away from it since it is quite bright in the pot. Now I'm a littler wiser and know that I can use just about anything if I really put my mind to it...except maybe the orange l/s but I'd be willing to give it a whirl.

ok, here's the random orange lipstick pic. I think this is Temperature Rising l/l used as lipstick actually. Skintone is in my signature.

Now, I don't have any orange lipstick, just some liners. I guess I could use neon orange in my stash.

Using l/l is just as great as using a regular l/s IMO. This looks fabulous on you!! It really compliments your skin. Thinking back on it, I have Coral Craze l/g pencil that I found awhile back at a CCO and it's not straight up orange but I'd say it's pretty close and I LOVE IT. I don't wear it everyday but I love wearing it in the spring. Here's a swatch I found...http://www.temptalia.com/images/2007/review_in3d001.jpg

I might have to pull that out and really give it another try this fall!

^^^^looks hot! I'm a big fan of TT worn solo too (I like to leave it super matte with no gloss on top). Is that Undercurrent I spy lining your eyes?

This is looking like a pretty tempting collection, after all.
This is subject to change, of course, as swatches become available, but so far I'm interested in:

Style Curve-bright violet purple (C)
Cockney (maybe)
Pigment
New Fixation-bright fuchsia red with soft pearlized pigments
Fluidline
Dark Diversion-blackened plum (If this is as good as it sounds, I may buy multiples!) Lately Bobbi Brown's Longwear Gel Eyeliner in Black Plum Ink has become my "go-to" eyeliner. I tried Macroviolet Fluidline, and it's okay, but I wanted something matte, and more pigmented. Dark Diversion sounds perfect! If it's really good, I wish MAC would make it permanent!

Orange lipstick does not work on me; as much as I love bright lips, orange is just not my color.
Purple is, so Style Curve has my name on it!

I always feel kind of "blah" right after Christmas, so maybe the timing of this collection will chase the "blahs" away this year!

 

[romi79_2008]

I want 2 pigments from this collection. I`m glad we pigments in the new collections and happier that they aren`t too many so I can afford how many I want

LOL was reading the first few pages where someone said that Red Twins was the working name of this collection..Red Twins made me think of Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen...and they have their own fashion line.

for a second i thought maybe it was the Olsen Twins collection

thank goodness it's not! they creep me out for some reason!

 

[mystery]

For some reason, the more I look at the info for this collection, the more I think I can skip it

Only 1 or 2 things at the most interest me. Am I the only one?

yeah i want the fluidline however it has to be opaque! i have got so mny liners that you have to layer up and i find it really annoying!

 

[laylalovesmac]

I'm just interested in the purple lipstick (of course) and the fluidline at the moment. But, I could see bringing a piggie home, too.
