I honestly didn't like the smoky eye bag when I swatched it earlier. I didn't HATE it but I didn't think it was worth $49(?). Maybe I just need to play around with it longer, but I'd rather wait for new collections or buy more MES. Plus, I already have similar colors so I really didn't spend much time looking at it haha.

Oh heck. I jumped on the red bag before it is gone. I only have 3 reds and no real red liners like that so I am going to give it a go.

Yes....me too!

All 3 eyeshadows are pretty and will work together very nice.

It does not deserve "D" IMO.....but it does include an eyeshadow from Evil Eye Quad and that is why I knew that it would not get "A" or "B" LOL

Thanks!!



Am I silly for not seeing the D quality in this? I kinda like it.

Has anyone posted swatch comparisons for the red lipstick? That's the only bag I MIGHT be interested in, but I need to see how it compares...or I could just go back to the mall but I'm feeling lazy haha.

Nordstrom exclusives are sold at de bijenkorf here most of the time. Last year they got all the sets.

I haven't heard anything about these sets coming to the Netherlands so I thought they were exclusive to Nordstrom.. Do you know anything about a releasedate?

I think she only bought the three things she already reviewed and didn't get the nude bag.

I saw this collection over the weekend. I was interested in the red and pink bags. I don't know. I swatched the lipsticks but didn't get that urge to buy them. The makeup bag is also a lot smaller than I expected. It's about the size of a wallet. I thought it would be bigger. I can't think of what colors are similar off the top of my head. I would need to see them again, but the red is a bright red.

What a coincidence! :p It's a shame it's released so soon though (I can't believe I'm saying this lol), because now I'll have to pay for shipping.. two weeks later and I could've traveled for free (studenten OV yay!) and picked it up.

I don't think they'll sell out that fast. You can also order online and chose to pick it up in store, that's free. They'll keep the package for 14 days and if you haven't picked it up by then they'll send it back. So if you order after a couple of days you could pick it up when you have your student OV. I love my student OV (free trips to amsterdam!).

I thought they would only keep it for a few days (so that wouldn't be an option). Thanks!! I also love my student OV!

thanks! May I ask you what does it say about Nikki farquharson bag &Co. ? Will they arrive in europe? Is august the release date for europe?

She heard that the bags will be sold at a couple of places, but she doesn't have a confirmation yet so I can't be sure. I think august is indeed for europe.

Anyone been able to get the electric eyeshadows from Nordies? I think I want to order a few with some of the bags. If I did not already have a dozen SH brushes I would get the rainbow brush roll and set, but I think I will get one of the graphic pattern ones like the Nikki Farquharson one...
