Someone posted some swatches of Fontainbleu e/s in the Swatches forum and wow! I'm so getting it, it's just what I wanted. Wish I could see more swatches of the collection...

I don't think so hun... I think it is a nice Khaki color, not as yellow toned as Sumptuous Olive.

the pink beauty powder is one of the most gorgeous things ever. i went to the pro store today and was amazed. if i hadn't spent all my money on 9 pigments, i would have bought it, but i figured i'd wait for it to come to the counters, so i could use my macy*s gift card, lol. the shadows, frankly, didn't excite me.

Just got my Fountainbleu and it is in the same color family as Iris Print but a deeper shade. Also it is a Frost and not Lustre formula Quote:

And the Beauty Powders can be an all over glow (Sundressing has a tan one) or as a blush (also has a peachy one) and for Sundressing Beauty Powders they ARE shimmery, but not massively so... |

i went to my local mac counter in macy's yesterday and in my opinion, i thought fountainbleu looked like my electro sky eyeshadow (no longer avail) and i felt the in living pink eyeshadow reminded me of coppering. i bought the 2 beauty powders since i dont have any so i know im not duplicating anything in that department.

I don't see much of the duo-chrome, but I only just played with it today. I'm actually thinking of taking it back or swapping it...

Fountainbleu is v. pretty, but the texture isn't as great as In living pink, relaxing & summer neutral.
The shell pearl is kinda sheer...idk how I feel about it yet. It's kinda..eh...but I prefer pigmented blushes.

I know!! I love working with the other shadows in the collection, but this one just...washes over, if that makes any sense. Really hoping I can find a good use for it, I hate a shadow, but would much rather get a backup of ILP or SN instead.
