I think I'm entering the phase of feeling like the more sparkly and glittery the eye product, the sheerer I want it. I still want it to be buildable, but I'd rather only have the densest color in controlled locations, depending on what my whole eye look is. I want to be able to use one product and easily sheer it out up to the brow if I want, while still having good color for accent spots on the lid or under the eye or in the inner corners, etc.
For me, the crushed metal pigments from Surf Baby were perfectly balanced for this - even the dark colors. For a lower sparkle product that I think got the perfect balance between pigmentation, opacity and buildability for it's level of shimmer, Venetian Tarnish Metal X was perfection too. MES are sort of hit or miss - sometimes they're a little too dense for the easiest blending ability, but when they're just right for their level of sparkle, glitter and shimmer (like Hold That Pose or Golden Gaze or Quartz Fusion) I love 'em so much. Certain colors of Big Bounce were great too - I don't care what anyone else says

I really loved Sakura. I am sometimes so fail with blush being so clowny on me, but that and giggly are so fool proof when I am in a rush with poor lighting. They were more for nc/nw 25 and up though :<

Excited to see this in person! I'm particularly interested in
Extra Dimension eye shadows
Warm Thunder- mid-tone silver grey
Blue Orbit- light iridescent purple
Grand Galaxy- mid-tone violet
Lunar- royal blue
Havanna- mid tone copper brown
Sweet Heat- bright peach champagne
modern pewter mode-tone olive gold
Rich Core-mid tone aubergine
Dark Dare-charcoal black
Young Venus-pale white pink
Extra Dimension skinfinish
Whisper Of Gilt- light soft white gold with shimmery sheen
Superb- Soft peach nude with Multi dimensional shimmer
Glorify- Copper golden shimmer
Big surprise... I'm excited for the purples. I'm imagining that Whisper of Gilt might be similar to Nars Albatross, given the description.

Wondering how shimmery, metallic the MSF will be...

Your list is pretty much exactly the same as mine (although I tend to avoid straight-up silver tones). I can't resist purples or anything with that kind of antique gold/olive/pewter look!

My pre-lim list:
Extra Dimension eye shadows
Warm Thunder- mid-tone silver grey
Blue Orbit- light iridescent purple
Grand Galaxy- mid-tone violet
Lunar- royal blue
Havanna- mid tone copper brown
Sweet Heat- bright peach champagne
modern pewter mode-tone olive gold
Rich Core-mid tone aubergine
Dark Dare-charcoal black
Young Venus-pale white pink
Extra Dimension skinfinish
Whisper Of Gilt- light soft white gold with shimmery sheen
Superb- Soft peach nude with Multi dimensional shimmer
Glorify- Copper golden shimmer
128 split fiber brush
234 slip fiber brush
I've got enough greys, even though I bet the one in this collection will be great. I love the sound of Modern Pewter too, but olive/khaki colors just usually don't look that great on me, no matter how much I love them. I'm going to probably skip Whisper of Gilt, despite how gorgeous it sounds, since I've probably got something very similar. Didn't get the 128 brush the first time around, so that's happening for sure.
Out of everything, the ones I'm really most excited to see are Blue Orbit, Havanna (which I recall Her Greyness alluding to with high praise as a beautiful milk chocolate color) and Lunar, just to see if it will fulfill my dreams of a very specific bluish royal purple color. If it's too blue, I can skip it.
Also, if Glorify is just the right blend of copper and gold, I probably won't be able to resist it. Superb sounds.....SUPERB!

Dark Dare, Havana, and maybe Sweet Heat depending upon the swatch will end up in my bag Also Glorify will be mine, hopefully this ends my long standing search a for replacement for Refined Deeper Bronze, Sun Power just ain't cutting the mustard, I need some shimmer
they all sound lovely but yes white gold is very appealing! i know i will be buying all the msf's from this collection!
