The brushes looked of interest too. I don't have any numbers but SA said they were all new. There was a small duo fiber eyeshadow brush whose brush head and size looked familiar though. Maybe I got it in a set before and now it is full sized now or maybe it is just similar. There was duo fiber angled face brush, a very small synthetic hairs brush but that was with the collection with contour and highlight sticks so I'm guessing it could be for nose contour?? Oh maybe for detail work on the eye. I don't know. There was a very small tapered fluffy brush that looked great for inner corner highlight and sweeping color under the lash line which is my new thing I've been trying so I had to get that one. There was one other brush I think black hairs kind of fluffy I think, along the lines of the 227 (is that the biggest fluffy brush?) Anyway the size was somewhere between the 215 and the 227-maybe for all over shadow application. Now that I'm home, I wish I had checked that one out a bit more but the brushes were hard to get out of the display with one hand .

Thanks, now I'm primarily interested in the brushes lol!

I'm skipping this whole collection becuz while everything is gorgeous, I just don't see anything that I want.

My list is being whittled down too. I wanted the dazzle shadow quad but now it just looks meh.

Thia, you're not alone. I'm gonna wait for T's dupe list before I make my final decision. Otherwise, I'll pick up a face palette. Moons of Jupiter seems to be calling my name.

I haven't tried any Dazzleshadows yet... are they quite different from pressed pigments? I'm intrigued by the quad but I have so many pressed pigments and hardly ever reach for them. I should probably skip.

I love the colors in this palette but I think I'll have to swatch in person first to feel the texture. I love cream shadows and I have super hooded lids so I'm used to everything creasing no matter what. I'm generally fine with it as long as it doesn't get all over my face.

Do you use a primer?

Yup, I've tried many and the Mac extend eye base works the best but my lids are hooded and oily so the most I can get out of any shadow, powder or cream, is about 4-5 hours.

Have you tried the Proof 10 primer from Etude House (Korean brand) ? I had similar problems and it worked wonders for me, my eye makeup lasts 10+ hours with it.
(sorry for being a little off-topic in a Mac chat)

I really like the colours but as Sam from Pixiwoo said, they don't set and are more geared to pro MUAs. I have oily lids so colours that don't set are pointless to me. If I want a messy look I'll use my clear Eye Gloss instead.

I'm interested in the Paints - but personally I have no experience with them so I need to read old reviews on this product type first. I'd love to get the royal blue and the purple one if they're indeed useable.
