Make sure to bring your wallet. And it better be filled up...

Hmm yes I'll try to remember that

sheer lipstick + Amplified finish?
that sounds so confusing LOL

 

[Eleentje]

Haha, I call it strategic placing! Two of my addictions are make up and chocolate, hehe
I'm not too fussed about getting a king now instead of a queen. I guess maybe because it is not something I grew up with.
A change is cool, I guess, although I wish they'd keep celebrating Queen/King/Royalty day on the 30th. I liked having a bunch of holidays so close together!

Maybe we'll get to see more of the little princesses now?!

Haha indeed!
I also didn't grew up with it and don't care that much, but I like to have something different as well. I'm curious to see how he will do and how people will like it. I also liked to have all those holidays together, because that would often result in a very long weekend or a couple of long weekends!
I hope the little princesses will still be able to grow up somewhat normal. Their father becoming king will make things very different compared to when he was 'just' a prince I guess.

I think anticipating these collections are actually greater than the collections themselves. Mentally, I am in April already!!!!

My nearest PRO store is a 12 hour drive away lol (Vancouver), been there a few times... hoping I can order from them without any hassle! I made friends with a girl working there last summer and I wonder if she'll remember me. Any Vancouverites should go see Helen at the pro store on Robson, she's great

There isn't a pro store anywhere near me. So looks like I'll have to miss this collection.

Yay! you're awesome. I've never called an order before. You don't have to be a pro member right? Do you just call the nearest store and they'll send it?

 

[erine1881]

Yay! you're awesome. I've never called before. You don't have to be a pro member right? And do you order when it launches online or stores?

I believe pro only items launch on the listed launch date (not a week early), as other stores won't be getting them. Nope, no pro card needed. Just ring em up, and it's $7 for shipping. I'm getting the metallic lips (minus the brown) and all the metallic shadows. Probably all the nude shadows, unsure of the nude lips.

 

[MACina]

YAY....thank you so much, erine

Perhaps our future Queen can carry on the tradition of her father and tell the dutch press to go f*ck themselves. (Ever seen that clip on tv where he's mumbling (as a child) that they should f*ck off and Beatrix is embarassed).

That would be really cool! Poor Beatrix...

[ChosenOne]

Are we thinking a lot of this collection is likely to sell out quickly? Or do we suspect it will be around for awhile since it's Pro store only? I'd really need to see these in person (or at the very least some pics/swatches) before feeling confident making my selections, but the nearest Pro store is a little over two hours away from me, and idk if it's worth that kind of trip the day of the release just to check these out. I really don't want to miss out on this collection though, so I'm feeling torn here. Too bad it's not releasing two weeks earlier as I'll be in that area at that time!

 

[lyseD]

Can't wait for your swatches Erine1881.

Unless the four shadows are super close to each other I want them all. The nude lipsticks sound beautiful too but I'll have to see swatches at least.

I don't think it will sell out too quickly as there isn't as much hype, no special packaging or theme really and if Pro store only, less folks will know of it? Just my guess though.
