Can I just say how excited I am to be home from work after an awful drama filled day of annoying coworkers and major PMS. All I was thinking the entire time is "I wanna be home on Specktra" Dear God what a day.

Swatches - dark skinned WOC. I did the swatches in the shade as well as direct sunlight so you could see the difference. Eyeshadows from top --> bottom: Lorelei Sea Worship Silver Sun Fathoms Deep Soul Serenade Lengendary Lure Lipsticks from top --> bottom: Siren Song Pet Me Please Enchanted One Mystical Goddess of the Sea Lipglasses from top --> bottom: Clear Water Peachstock Water Deities Seducing Sound Modern Lure Hope this helps those who are planning to buy their goodies in store next week!
Thank you for the swatches! Seducing Sound looks nice. There isn't much for me in this collection and I have similar items so on the one hand no pretty bullets but on the other more cash left :-D

Yeah, you definitely don't need to feel bad about skipping it if you have Cosmo. I do like it, though!

Okay, I'm still catching up, but yes to all of these! I love Garbage. Saw them at the OC fair in Cali in 2006 -it was a fantastic concert. I have 4 pair of Doc Martins now and I doubt I'll ever stop wearing them. I'll be in my 70's with my Docs. Maybe I need to move to Portlandia.
Me too. Garbage was one of the first bands I saw in Concert.

Swatches look so nice! Especially the eye shadows.

So my lipsticks came yesterday Mystical reminds/looks like Hoop & Goddess of the Sea is a dark muted plum, not Summer @ all, IMHO mac really could've done better with the lipsticks. The packaging is gorgeous.

I was just coming here to comment on that. I think she didn't like how light and sheer it was, but that's the reason I love it. Bronzers are usually heavy looking and too matte for my liking on my NW13 skin. I like the soft sheer color of AS, that's what made me buy it. Just because it doesn't pack a ton of pigmentation doesn't make it bad...
Exact reason I am hoping to love AS!

Got all my things yesterday! AS is gorgeous and suits my skin just how I hoped it would. I gotta say, i got two eyeshadows and something's compelling me to buy the rest!!!! (Everything except my bank account lol). @Mac-Guy was right on about Lorelei being the perfect color to make blue eyes stand out, it's beautiful and I think I need a BU! I haven't tried Silver Sun yet but it swatches very lovely :) Water Deities is very pretty as well :)
I thought I got what I wanted from this collection and that I would move on......no. I only want more :(
