I am hoping the same thing. I thought I saw some green with Risser's swatch, but that could be my monitor as well.

So Summer Rose is the plummy colour, right? I am thinking there could be some interesting possibilities combining this with some of our new MSF's and Grand Duos!

(Perfect Topping comes to mind).

I am lemming towards

Of Summer
ET Tu Bouquet?
Blush of Youth
Summer Rose
Love & Friendship n/p
Tender tryst
Magnetique l/g
A Rose Romance l/s
Fix + Rose

Thanks for the swatches Risser

My list is a little bit different now.

Both the bp's
the quad
Silver Thorn (maybe)

Wow- the swatches are great. This is the most excited I've ever been about a collection! So excited, I've de-lurked- LOL.

Does anyone think Silverthorn is similar to Arctic Grey and Of Summer to Wintersky? I don't want to purchase things that look the same on as things I already own.

 

[sharkbytes]

^^I haven't seen Silverthorn in person yet, but from the description it's a veluxe pearl, while Arctic Grey was...hmm, I think a lustre? Arctic Grey was definitely very glittery, and a mid-tone at that.

 

[Risser]

There is a mistake on swatches of eyeshadows and I feel sorry for you guys. Actually, Of Summer is a grayish pale purple and Et Tu, Bouquet is a light golden pink.

I will share compared photos for eyeshadows with correct names tomorrow.

Risser since you have the products, do you think you could do a mini review:]? I really want to know if the BPs can be used as blushes?

 

[Rinstar]

I am so excited for a quad that has 3 frosts and no lustres!!!! LOL.
Frosts are my favorite though, so that's why... and I am also thinking I may need both BPs now!!

My skin is really dry as well. Moisture lush works great for me.

Just saw the swatches for this collection! I am so excited about the BP's, lipsticks and the lipglasses!

They reminds me of highlight powders came from Dame Edna collection. I prefer Barbie BPs.

Thanks! Do you use this as a moisturizer? Does this give you a glow like strobe cream?

 

[AudreyNicole]

From the pics, they definately look to have more color than the Barbie and Dame Edna BPs. I can't wait to see them! Personally, I don't mind if they are shimmerless like Dame Edna, as long as they are dark enough, and not chalky... I have plenty of shimmery stuff I can add over them.

 

[Krasevayadancer]

These swatches have me thinking... ho hum. I don't know, I am just digging bright colors on my eyes lately (hence the mufe love)

However, I will probably indulge in the beauty powders since I love me some bps. And I think thats it

 

[pdtb050606]

^^ I'm not really feeling too much of it either, pastels really don't do it for me

I am always open to being enabled though

Agreed, I am not super excited for this. I am feeling pretty indifferent about this collection! I am open to being convinced also though

 

[Face2Mac]

I've made my list;

Steal my heart l/g, B2M
A Rose Romance l/s B2M
Way to love l/s
Virgin kiss l/g if not too sheer, but if sparkles yes


Definitely the Rose is a Rose Quad, if nothing else, the QUAD (yes, it deserve Capital letters)

i love the lips because i need pink lippies. This collection is pretty.

 

[blindpassion]

Im not that excited about this collection guys

Except for Solar White

Im sure that will change once I see it in person.

What do you all rec for me? (NC 15)

 

[blindpassion]

btw, I love the names in this collection!
So soft and feminine!

Those are the only pressed BP I have & I simple adore them:] But, I was really hoping for a bit of color (they look to be pretty pigmented) 50/50
