Yes, some people here suggested that, too. It is a great tip, but I agree, it won't make me buy it.

After seeing the tempalia swatches I finally decided. Looks like If its pink and sparkalicious l/g. Partylicious and Later p/g. and So rich so pretty n/p
Who else is pumped for this collection?

I knew that the Metal ES are eyeshadows, that's why I would prefer them over the pigments, as I am not really using them

So it seems I need to be a verrry good girl so that they release the metal e/s soon

 

[PlatinumV]

Oh, so now I am sure. All 3 pigments for me

later looks amazing wet!

and partylicious wet looks like nothing i already have

i'm happy!

I.Want.Candy looks really pretty overtop pinks - I tried it with Rose Maiden and Pink Burst - both were really pretty. For people who are used to nudes and peachy/corals like me (and stay away from reds, berries and pinks) this was a good way to wear them by toning them down a bit.

My lip swatch makes it look kinda funny on its own because I'm an NC - I don't think I'd wear it by itself.

Damn Temptalia swatches.. Ugh now I'm thinking I want two of the polishes--Military and Morning After. However, I don't want to spend too much money on this collection b/c my funds are limited right now... Ugh. I hated this collection at first--can I go back to hating it, please? Just for my wallet's sake?

i'm swithering over partylicious... it's so pretty but i rarely use pigments and i'm cutting down on buying products i won't use

tell me i'm doing the right thing by skipping it

 

[CoralBlast]

honey if i could get my hands on partylicious i would but since i don't have paypal or a credit card i can only drool over the swatch! it so sucks when they do exclusive collections.

i haven't been here in a while my dog died and nothing cheers me up, not make up nothing!

awwh i'm sorry about your dog

i don't know what i'd do without mine. hope you're holding up ok

and exclusive collections blow! thank goodness we have lovely specktrettes who help others out with CPs

 

[CoralBlast]

thank you so much, i am quite devastated but i don't want to hijack the thread with that kind of talk. i am in a confused state of mind thank you for your support.
i don't understand how cps work and i refuse to get a credit card because that would most definitely put me in jail, so if i were you i wouldn't think twice about getting that pigment!

i'm so sorry about your poor dog

 

[spunky]

nobody would hold that against you, we're all supportive here

i'd have to CP for it too and it does seem a bit too much like hard work for something i probably wouldn't use too much. and yes, credit cards are evil! stay well away from them!

i know everyone is very nice here and thank you lou and spunky for understanding, not many can.
so you are with me then in the hopes that it pops up in some other collection like Later. it took my a while to catch up but i think i read it all. i trust the money in my hands not money i don't actually have so yes credit cards get you in trouble stay away.

i hope it does! if it does, i'd imagine it'll be next summer before we see it again. it doesn't strike me as a fall/winter colour.

After Temptalia's swatches: Later and I didn't think i'd say this, but Partylicious as well! EXTREMELY excited for this collection!!! In the Groove is so *yawn* compared to A+O

Sorry to hear about your dog CoralBlast

I know i'd be absolutely devastated losing my husky...

 

[dxgirly]

I'm so afraid the pigments are going to sell out before I can buy them online. Good thing I have Monday and Tuesday off

 

[riotlove]

if i have the money to do so do you think i should buy back ups of later and partylicious just in case someone misses out? anything else?

it's been so crazy w/ collections lately that i'd HATE to see someone miss out
