I want everything, but I need to limit myself. Which bronzer would be best for NW 20 skin? Also I can't justify all of the lippies and all of the np = probably will buy one of each. Definately getting the duo though.

Probably the lighter one?

Michelle - I don't use Bronze Rose a lot but whenever I do, I use the brush that comes with it. I realise the brush is not ideal, it picks up a lot of powder but doesn't transfer the powder well on my face and I get powder flying everywhere. I have been wasting a lot of my favourite bronzer! I hope the brush with this bronzer this year is better. I am wearing Mythic today - loving it and thinking of you. :) Have not worn it for a long time.

I think you'll need to wait to see more pics/swatches. Sometimes I see them described as light vs dark and sometimes as peach vs pink.

I agree -- the little brush is cute, but doesn't do the best job at application. I use a duo fibre brush (skunk brush) usually, and it works great.
I am so sad they d/c'd Mythic. Such a gorgeous nude

I'm sure you look gorgeous wearing it :)

Hooo I knew I shouldn't pop in... Now I want the eyeshadow duo too... It looks like something I could bring for a short weekend trip

. I love the orange lippies too (both RCS and gloss) but I don't think I'll be getting those because I still have some rarely used orange lippies.
Tempted with the bronzers because it looks so pretty on the pan, but sadly I don't think I'd want to shell out the funds for it now.

Hi Astrid :) I hear ya. I need to see swatches of everything before I buy. I have cut back some on my makeup purchases this year (but I have been buying more bags and clothes, so who am I kidding??) -- I've only been buying the things that I absolutely love. So I can't wait to see if I will be in love with the bronzers and lippies. I think the e/s duo looks great, too.

I don't wear bronzers but these are quite pretty.

All three n/p look very nice. I'll have to check those out.


Off topic--If anyone likes Butter London n/p I got an email from Nordies today buy 2 and get the color "Teddy Girl" free. I love BL and bargins. This was great timing since I had planned to buy "Disco Bisquit" for my daughter-in-law anyway.

I'm not sure if this if the right place for this but.....Chanel has some new and repromoted JC blushed.

I think Pink Explosion and Plum Attraction are the repromotes. The new ones are Malice and Tumulte. My local Blue Mercury had these and they are displayed with the new foundation (don't recall the name). Tumulte is pink, it was a little too blue-based pink for me...compared to Pink Explosion it doesn't appear to be very pigmented. I picked up Malice - I'm not sure how to describe this. It's a deeper, brighter peach than Espiegle. Maybe a little red in it? Sorry but it's one of those colors that are hard to put into words but I think it will look great w/the summer colors.

Only 2 new ones. I read that even Pink Explosion and Plum Attraction (both being repromoted) will be the US formula. But I'm not sure I'll believe it until I read the back of the box!

How did the trip go? Any more crazy Chanel lady stories? Have you seen any signs of a GWP for Chanel?

No crazy Chanel lady stories lately. That particular lady has been out for awhile for some reason. The only goodie I got was another mini Plasir gloss. She said I should try it over Canduer.

Winthrop - Candeur does have a very tiny slight bit of peach with really pretty gold shimmer. I do like how it makes my lips look, but yeah, it doesn't last a long time.

Wouldn't be surprised if mine doesn't have them yet either. I'm going to give them a call.

Edit: So my Nordstrom got "3" new JCs in yesterday, but their GWP won't be until mid-May.

I have the same problem with Candeur, it doesn't last long but then again none of the RCS last long on me. Canduer looks very pretty over Superstition lipstick - I wear that combo with Natural liner.

Ooh, I do love the sound of that ^combination. I don't have Superstition - yet - but I can try something similar. I do love how Candeur softens & kinda 'pinks' my lips. I guess maybe it gives me

I do want to try it with a nude liner. Also, it makes my lips super soft, so that's a plus.
