I saw those, and a couple of swatches on IG but something is holding me back... just haven't used a lot of makeup lately and wondering if I'll end up using it much, or how it would look on me... or the knowledge that the Chanel highlighters are coming out... :nixweiss:

Fair enough! I totally hear you. It is a beauty though! 20171018_090013.jpg

Strange Saks has the emerald quint on their holiday beauty section but I haven't seen Dior holiday on the site yet? Could be mistaken

I went to check out the Holiday collection here and we didn't get the highlighter so I may order from the US. I bought Ruby np and Vibrant Tourmaline lipstick. The counter only had 3 of the lipsticks and expected a 4th to arrive late. There were 2 fluids and I think they were waiting on one more. The mauvey fluid swatched very brown on a tissue and no doubt would be brown on me.

Nice to have a small haul for a change!

Yay! Mini hauls are great! :icon_cheers:I LOVE vibrant tourmaline! Originally I bought it from Nordstrom because I couldn't get it here, but it just launched at the Bay and I bought backups :eek: The formula and color are perfection:heart:

I managed to get the Ruby quint. I couldn't find it online. I saw it on display at Neiman Marcus last week. It didn't occur to me to ask if they actually had any in stock. I was still trying to decide between the ruby and emerald but really wanted both. I called yesterday but couldn't get anyone on the line. I called Bloomies and they said they had one left. I went this morning and they still had it. Surprised. I did call Nordstrom and they told me only the sets had come in so maybe stores just haven't gotten the product in and it is not sold out. I don't know but watch the emerald one start disappearing and I start panicking. I hope to get it soon. I don't know what else I'll get from this collection right now. I did try the green and red shimmer polish and like them but I can't be sure I don't have similar colors. I'm trying to lighten my polish collection now.

I got both from Lord & Taylor for 15% off during their F&F sale. They shipped from a store, so Emerald arrived broken. I was so happy Ruby was the intact one b/c I saw it was selling out everywhere online.
Returned Emerald and repurchased from Belk with their $20 off $100 deal. Worked out perfectly: $63 for Emerald & $37 for Bobbi Brown Luxe Lipstick in Downtown Plum!

As soon as I put it on I thought of you and knew that you would love it! I'm relieved to know that you were able to buy it as I recall you couldn't initially. How many did you get all up lol? I'm getting at least one back up :boink::cloud9::twirl::five: I don't think I have anything quite like it, It's like a pink with berry tones very elegant!

I bought two backups- probably should have just got one, but when I saw that it was finally up at the Bay, reason went out the window. Lol! :shakehead: Yes, originally it was only available and sold out at Holt Renfrew, and it did not launch with the other lipsticks that launched with this collection at Sephora or the Bay. Weird! They just added it two weeks later. I honestly thought backups were out of the question since I'd have to order from Nordstrom again and it's a hassle. Needless to say I jumped on it when I saw it here. I love love love the formula. It lasts FOREVER and is such a velvet matte.:cloud9: I totally thought of you too!:tee::kisskiss::five::heart:

Hawaii?!? Wow! Now that is commitment! I got the Ruby bug too and hunted one down here in Canada this past weekend. Funny how that happens:tee::zombie::rofl::rotfl:

I saw the two quints today. They didn't have any testers so I couldn't play with them. I bought Ruby untested. Couldn't resist. When the testers arrive I might end up with Emerald too. They are so beautiful!

I had my laugh over these tutorials.

Access Denied (ignore the title, for some reason)

I really liked the look of those ombre lips. Not for me, but maybe for someone willing. I linked it mostly because it shows the versatily of the Metalizers and to see the very real "spoon" trick used by a designer makeup brand (I don't think I ever saw this trick being used on tutorials for designer brand, seeing a down to earth trick being used on those perfect models is amusing).

It's already out in Åhlens City in centralen in Stockholm and it sells fast! I got my Ruby palette on Friday along with 2 nail polishes and the Vibrant Tourmaline lipstick. But I think that the highlighter is yet to be seen, not to mention in Sweden we might not get it at all. Maybe it will be again a KICKs online exclusive like last year's Diorific highlighter.

thank you!! I've been waiting on kicks releasing it online but might go by åhlens instead :) I'm not interested in the highlighter since it's not glowy-in-your-face that I usually go for lol
