The collection has arrived in my country.

Like Pippillota, we got the green palette instead of the black / grey one. I was angry, but I was subdued because I love green and we didn't have that palette yet. I didn't like the brown one, it's neither striking enough nor does it feel like one I'd reach for everyday (I like more taupe than brown).

The metallizer shadows are odd, they give me the same feeling the liquid shadows gave me. A little goes a very long way, it's very easy to understimate how much pigment it packs. However, I found that the colours were lacking. The plum and the green are too dark and flat to be interesting, the grey one is exactly the same shade as Aventure (but with way more pigment), while the tans are somewhat sparkly but boring. I didn't get any, even if I liked the grey one and I'm usually very weak against green. I might go back for the grey, but these didn't awe me.

I liked the lipsticks and whatnot, but as usual I don't think they're for me. Too much pigment, no many years have passed and I still can't feel comfortable with them. However, they felt really good quality, so I'm sure that people that like lipsticks will find at least one that will suit their tastes. The new rouges also arrived, I feel the same way towards them.

I enjoyed the polishes, got Metallics and Paradox, even if the latter is too dark then I believe it should be. I was very disappointed with the new rouge polishes, none of them struck a fancy.


The quints look nice and I see a green polish. :)

I was on the fence with the copper palette from summer, somehow I didn't like the colours against my skin and maybe this one will be different. The green one is coming home, I'm so weak against green. :):):)

Dior 351 lip tattoo is available now at the Bay! I'm pretty sure that's a new one for North America. They also have the fall quints along with Attract from Care and Dare. I was able to pick up Attract and Magnetize from Holt's awhile ago, but I'm excited for 351!

More on the holiday collection.

There are four colour polishes:

These photos are sometimes deceiving, but it seems like two crêmes (pink-red, burgundy), two shimmers (red, dark green).

If it's like this, I'll get the green one only. The rest are colours they've already done.

I've come to penitence myself over the Metalizers.

They are indeed very dark and flat if too much product is used. Too much is actually too little, I don't even know who'd try so little product ever. Today I tried with just a smudge of the green one (it was just passing my finger over the tube opening, I didn't even squeeze it) and blended it in the back of my hand (almost all over it), and it was BEAUTIFUL. Like the cream shadows on STEROIDS, more pigmented and yet the same sparkly veil-like finish.

I have to stress this, only try the tiniest bit! Really, really tiny! They spread and blend very easily (at least in the back of the hand). All the colours are wonderful! Not flat or too dark at all! They're wonderful! Unless the SEPHORA lights trolled me for the umpteeth of time (and I don't put my hands on the fire for this), but I don't think so!

Did we have anything on the new Origami Blush/highlighter whatever it is??? It's up on Nordies but the photo doesn't look right like the Bloomies one. It's also listed at $70 not the $86 Bloomies has. Anybody know anything???

I did see that. It's confusing though, because it has the same description as the one on Bloomies but it looks completely different in the photo. Thanks dear!
