I still haven't been able to make Lavish Living work without it showing up as straight shimmer. I might have to resort to using this just as a cheek highlight. On the other hand, I love Scene to Be Seen, the bottom shade in particular. That is the finish I wish I could get from LL.

I also am not loving LL. Boo! I hate to return it but it's just not a great blush on me.

NC50/NW45...I can't really explain PP, it just was not something I wanted to wear.  I think my mom would love it but, too dated for me.  AS for EE, it's light but with the right liner, I think it would be good.
I'm a C6 and I agree I just received my Private Party and it's what I would call office lipstick. You can wear it to the office without surprising anyone or eliciting any second looks. I was expecting it to be more purple but it's leans more wine mauve. Nothing against the color it's just not what I was expecting.

It sounds Old Ladyesque. Like they borrowed the color from Estee Lauder.

Got my black box yesterday. I decided on Private Party, You've got it creamsheen and Lavish living Blush.
(Excuse the mini break out.)
You've got it is a nice nude gloss on me. I thought it would be milky but it's prefect. I may give the lipstick a chance.
Private Party Lipstick is a nice office party/christmas at the folks purple but it runs pinky on me. I was hoping for a darker color...
Lavish Living is just as Liba described...nothing special straight on but once you turn to the side it's really pretty...beautiful sheen (i have it on in both pics)



You've got it creamsheen



Private Party
Ultra pretty, I like the way you did your eyes too. May I ask which E/S are you wearing?

I wound up returning Lavish Living. For $27.50, I couldn't justify to keep it if it was just going to collect dust and I already have NARS Sin. I exchanged for Flair For Finery (I can never have too much nudes) and this is a pretty one. It's milky and soft pink plus the lustre makes it a little more forgiving on the lips (the nude lipstick from last year's holiday collection was a dud for me). Try pairing NYX Nude lip pencil, Exclusive Event with Flair For Finery. :bigstar:

I swatched scene to be seen and it was too shimmery. LLB was okay. Not so excited about my Nordie delivery. I wished I had swatched before I ordered but I got caught up in the excitement. Hubby does not like EE on me. He says I looked like I had a lip rash.:shock:

My brush evidently only picked up the gold pigment in CoA when I was playing yesterday... guess who wound up with golden cheeks. Not even like glowing summer golden tan... like King Midas b!tchslapped me golden cheek. Oops. Aside from that, really digging this collection so far!

Things like bug me too. Hell, little things bother me like when people were calling this Divine Nights (plural) but a mistake like that isn't little. That's kind of a big mistake! :shocked:

I know! Especially coming from someone with such a huge following. She should really edit her work and check for mistakes like that!

Was that you that posted on her blog about the error? I was about to but saw that it had already been done lol. I get that errors happen on blogs. T does it, and beautezine does it too with regards to prices and release dates and spelling errors and whatnot, but calling a collection by the wrong name, and by a name with a completely different meaning even, is kinda... ...especially when you're not buying the products yourself, but being sent the products from that company. And i get that they feel rushed to get the products reviews and swatches out by a certain deadline, but this would take like 5 minutes.
