not really used to hearing that, especially since this photo was taken after 2 days without any sleep and absolutely no makeup but than again it was photographed by my boyfriend and every photo he takes of me is pure magic

As you can see from my coloring this collection was made for me! I want most of it:
Dangerous Cuvee paint pot
Chilled on ice paint pot but only if it is different from the bare study p/p?

I Get No Kick eye kohl - I have a feeling this will be better than fascinating eye kohl on my waterline - my eyes are too small in my feeling to be lined with a black color, I usually put there white or brown.
nc15/nw20 Chromographic Pencil
special reserve highlight powder - I'm not sure which I prefer, Erin hinted that the rose ole is the prettier but I also want a highlighting powder that is not pink, maybe I'll just get both since the only highlighting powder I have is smashbox prism.
I'm not sure about the quad, need to see swatches since I don't have any of the eyeshadows.

And as I wrote earlier all things Lavender are a big no no

 

[tamarindi]

Just 1 more thing (for now at least

)
In the NYFW, didn't they also used a lilac paint pot? I presumed it would be in this collection, I've been looking for mauvism paint everywhere - I thought this will be a good substitute...

i only have one which was the corally coloured one from lillyland collection and that is mainly shimmer on a semi opaque base. however i believe the older lip gelees didn't have much shimmer and were quite clear.

The nude eye kohl would be awesome in the inner lowerlashline and tear duct. I'm iffy about Feline because I already have so many Zero liners from UD. But I hear great things about Feline so we'll see. I'm already a pale/shimmery/nude lip kind of girl so I'm excited to see some swatches on the Flustered l/s and might even get one of the perm ones. And the lipglees, but I bought Resort life so they might be a pass. Really looking forward to the paint pots and I'm sure the Very Important Platinum n/p is I love metallic nails as much as dark nails. Excited to see the highlight powders too Anybody else digging this coll yet?

I'm a lipstick queen but none of the lipsticks in this collection excites me. Neither do the lipgelee's but I want to see swatches first. Maybe Bubble Lounge will be nice to layer over lipstick or liner. Right now I want Chilled on Ice and Vintage Selection paint pot (I don't know why since I never touch Coral Crepe anymore).

I also want I Get No Kick and Feline (x's 2). I was going to get Lavender Fix+ but I want to smell it first. Plus I have and love a full bottle of Fix+ Rose. I need to try it on my face b/c I only use it for pigments. Anyone have any irritation using Fix+ on their face? The rose one, in particular.

I am excited about the paint pots! I love paint pots <3

Lip glosses that are the complete opposite of Dazzleglasses etc. Very thin, non-sticky consistency, not tacky at all, pretty sheer and sometimes shimmery, but they always give a "my lips but better" look. They're my favourite lipgloss - especially for everyday use, and I find them quite moisturising too. Oh, and did I mention you get more product in them then any other lip glass MAC produces?

I think I am narrowing down a tentative list:

Bubble Lounge -sparkly pink peach
Sin-Tillation -sparkly pale icy pink
Luxure -off white with pink pearlized pigments

Pretty much all lip gelee but the bronze one.


I'd like all the paint pots! If I have to limit myself, the gray and copper ones will be priority.

Chilled on ice-frosted white gold
Vintage Selection-frosted midtone peach
Dangerous Cuvee-frosted cool grey
Let Me Pop-frosted light copper

It is possible I will skip all the PP and wait for the cream E/s to be released with Peacock collection. I think they will be worth saving for, and we are going to have to narrow down selection from 15 awesome choices. (unless we can afford 15 x 22 each?)


I think I will have to have teh crinkly powder just because its cute. I'd get the Rose Ole-soft pink with gold shimmer


I am actually pretty stoked about the nail polishes--they sound perfect for Holiday time with their shiney metallic potential:
Soiree-sparkly light bronze gold
Very Important Platinum-midtone platinum

(I think metallic NP will be big this winter)

Skipping...Quad and kohls (I have 3 of the 4 colors in the quad and I think Caviar Dreams will be dupeable. I actually have tons of taupe colored eyeshadows and pigments. So the quad is a pass.) No eyekohls for me. I hate smuding and I am really more of a liquid liner girl. Or gel in a pinch. I make exception for Pearlglides if the color is right.

The peacocky e/s aren't actually cream products, HerGreyness just described them as extremely creamy but definitely a powder

Since I've purchased Shift To Pink at my CCO, I fell in love with Lipgelees and in this collection, I want all 4 unless the swatches change my mind. All 4 paint pots are coming home to me!!

 

[Visi]

I think I Get No Kick eye kohl could be amazing, so I might get two of that.

I love lavendar but have never used fix+. Is the LE fix+ the same price as the normal one usually?
