Specktra is looking for members attending HK events at their store or counter BEFORE the launch date to share their experience on the Specktra blog. We want to see your pictures, drool over the hotness serving cocktails, know what you loved so much you brought it home with you, and feel the buzz in the room as you describe your evening.

If you're interested all you have to do let me know the date your party is for, again PRE-launch parties only please, and that you will be covering it for the Specktra blog. Timeliness is important, if you can commit to having your blog on the event submit within 24 hours of the event that would be ideal.

Hello Kitty is taking over Specktra!

Great, I look forward to seeing all of your recounts and images on the blog! If you don't have access to the "contribute" button in the top navigation just send me a PM with the content and links to the images.

That goes for everyone who hasn't chimed in yet too! I'd love to have as many people as possible pitch in.

I have a question, how do you get to attend an unveiling before a collection launches? Mine isn't until the 13th.

I just came back from the HK preview and it was a madhouse! I got there at 6:30pm, only the MAC girls were outside smoking and a few other MACaholics. Within 15 minutes there was a huge line outside the store. I was one of the firsts to get in and it was all calm and lovely until the crowd swarmed in. I mean it was packed. Pink order forms were passed out at the entrance for us to fill out and give the cashier. I guess that helped out with the chaos. They served cosmos in super tall glasses...and they were really strong.

So I didn't buy any of the makeup...I know, I know, how could I? But honestly I went there with the intentions of only buying the makeup bags. So that's what I got. If I had the chance, I probably would have picked up the pigments/Reflects. They are really pretty. Favorite was the Reflects Very Pink and milk pigments. But low on funds so had to pass up. Just an FYI, the makeup bag was sold out by the end of the night, that and the Pink Fish TLC.

Got back home around 10:30PM. Whew!

It was fun. I'll have a full story for the blog tomorrow but here is a quick recap:

RSVP'd for 7:00PM but got there around 7:30PM. There was a line of about 20 people in front of me and the store was PACKED.

Waited outside for about 20 minutes. They were sloooowly letting people in as people exited. I think it was about 5 degrees outside so once I got inside and began to thaw I was ready to go. I took a picture with Daniel, Hello Kitty's best friend. Okay, I don't know what his face really looked like but the body was on point!

I attended with Mslips but ran into J_Absinthe and MelodyKat while I was there.

Took a quick look at the collection because it was so packed that it was hard to really look at everything not to mention that some of the pieces were missing from the display. I decided on Fast Friends lipglass and Most Popular lipstick.

I made my way to the checkout line, which was CRAZY. I had a drink (I don't know if they had a name but it was Vodka, Sprite and Lemonade) and an MA pulled my 2 items and I waited...

waited....

waited....

and then finally was rung up.

I started to make my way back toward the exit but stopped the waiter passing around the drinks for a picture and another drink. I was buzzed after the first. After the second I was feeling good!

I finally made my way back toward the front and decided to get a few more pics now that there was a little more space to breathe. I took my pics and headed out with my lipstick and lipgloss in my pocket.

I enjoyed the night and would definitely go back for another event.
