Wow Dreaming Dahlia looks orange in the swatches. I ordered it, hope I can pull it off (dark hair, blue eyes. light skin - I usually do best in pinks).

Snapdragon looks like just the shade I was looking for, can't wait until it comes in next week. I missed the overnight shipping code.

I am glad I skipped the eyeliners. I already have an emerald one from Sephora that will be a sub for Sassy Moss and the Phlox one looks too pink for my chronically red eyes. If it had been a blue-purple I would have gotten it for sure.

Still eyeing the coral blush and the yellow pigment... hmmmmm

L to R: Stereo Rose, PT, nectar sweet, playful petal, Snapdragon The girl on the phone asked me to rub off the first later to see if I could see veining... Definitely didn't work
That sucks about pt. Loving snapdragon.

I don't have a lot of purple in mine (original) and I'm ok with that. If the new one swatches exactly the same I don't think I'll be able to skip PT even though it looks way crappier than the original. :lol:

Rose Lily is a light milky pink with a lavender hint to me & subtle tiny sparkles. I have pigmented lips and horrible lighting but applied sheer this lipstick is cute. Sorry I don't think I have a similar color to compare it to (slacking on the light pink game) and I apologize for the crappy pic quality/ lighting in advanced it was taken with front facing cam pics
sooo pretty! this is making me want it bad!

As long as your Heatherette doesn't end up in his pocket! Lol You crack me up!!
My Original awesome PT  :eyelove:
Took my breathe away! Seems like having one like this may only be a dream for me! And I resisted buying one off eBay FOREVER! Felt I was being rewarded for holding out! Now it will even be that much harder to track down a good one w people reselling these pieces of crap!!! Ugh! Oh well... It's not as if my face is hurting for highlighters! Lol

Is Stereo Rose and Nars Torrid the same type of shade? I already have Nars Torrid. I don't want encores lol.
On my skin, they are really quite different, although I love them both.



Torrid on the left, SR on the right. The picture doesn't really do them justice (iPhone and my terrible desk light), but hopefully you can see how great the difference between them is. SR is lighter, much more shimmery, and slightly pinker. Applied softly, I find that SR goes nicely with red lipstick just to give me a warm glow, whereas Torrid would definitely be too much.

I'm happy I skipped, pretty colors but nothing is unique at all IMO. I saved my coins big time with this collection

I'm feeling the same way and I'm really glad I didn't decide to get a PT now seeing how they're arriving mainly beige with very little veining.

Only Rose Lily came courtesy of the overnight shipping. Wish it would've used the code with my big order!

Snapdragon is reminding me a bit of Playtime which is one of my favs. It's a really hard color to dupe too!

whats your foundation shade? stereo rose is so pretty and not what i was expecting
In MAC anywhere from NC30-35 depending on the time of year! If you are anywhere close to my shade, I highly recommend it. This is actually my BU because I wasn't using my stereo rose often because I didn't want to run out!

Sooo now the waiting really begins for me (and fellow Europeans)... I only want PT, Dreaming Dahlia and maybe Naked Bud. The AFOF release date is March 8 for Holland so yeah.. I really hope there's gonna be an (somewhat) early online release so I can justify them as birthday prezzies lol.
